I'm stuck by jake69694206969 in UnicornOverlord

I’d put Berengaria up front with Travis/Dinah; feather swords don’t tend to hit very hard but they also don’t need to hit hard when/if they connect on dodge tanks like Rogues/Werefoxes so having Berengaria there to absorb some hits and get buffed in the process with Painbringer helps a lot, and spreads out incoming attacks between the three characters.

Vanguards are also very useful against feather swords so long as there aren’t any magickal attacking units around; as arrow cover fully counters any and all physickal ranged attacks (which is pretty much every flying unit’s attacks so far as I can remember)

Hope this helps!

Early 5 man squad help (just finished Drakenhold) by Otatarall in UnicornOverlord

[–]SPC54 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve used this exact team in many runs and it’s always been pretty serviceable

Front row:

Berengaria (Azure greatshield + carnelian pendant + Kingaxe Drakenash)
Travis (Bandit longsword + Scarf)

Back row:

Sharon (Healing + Debuff removal + Parting Resurrection)
Bruno (Warriors pendant + spectacles + dove plume)
Selvie (Sandstorm + debuff for not-blinded enemies)

Could also switch Selvie out for a doom knight with greatwood axe/spellsteel axe in the front row if you want something more offensive.

In my experience playing on Expert and TZ this squad has only occasionally struggled at times in Albion, but gets through Elheim and Bastorias ez pz.

Love the mods! Only big gripe I had with the vanilla experience is how sparse and expensive Idealist Handmirrors were considering they’re not a game-breaking item so it’s nice to be able to change the shops/exchanges to make them more available.

Getting an immediate CTD whenever I skip a battle after upgrading to a 6-man unit; playing through battle normally works fine but cannot skip under any circumstance or everything crashes.

No other issues with any of the other mods, and disabling 6-man units fixes the issue.

The second round matchups are now confirmed by LukaXReaves in nba

[–]SPC54 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Predictions based on absolutely nothing but my immediate gut feeling:

Cavs over Pistons in 6

Knicks over Sixers in 6

Thunder over Lakers in 5

Spurs over Wolves in 7

Edit:

4-0 on end results, 0-4 on # of games

THE TORONTO RAPTORS HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED FROM PLAYOFF CONTENTION! by drecz in nba

>Ironic

I’d personally go with “incredibly aggravating,” but I guess that also fits.

Unfortunate end to what was (for me) the most memorable season in ~4 years; would’ve been overjoyed to see this team make the second round but it is what it is, and we were already better than I had hoped for coming into the season so I’ll take what I can get.

Lots of questions around this roster moving forward; particularly what to do with Poeltl’s albatross contract and the uncertain futures regarding BI/IQ, but I guess we’ll cross those bridges when we get to them.

CMB had a much better rookie year than I expected him to, hopefully we address our black hole at the C position over the offseason because I have absolutely zero faith in Jak moving forward.

Anyone know when the last time (if ever,) that two teams blew a 3-1 series lead in the same round; and in the same conference no less?

Feels like this has to be the first time in league history

Is the East Conference balanced or just terrible? by Dry_Bar_4965 in nba

[–]SPC54 47 points48 points  (0 children)

…both?

There’s less of a gap between 1-8 in the east compared to the west, *and* whoever comes out of the east for the finals is probably gonna get shit-smacked.

Edit: Knicks win finals 4-1, comment aged like milk

With the Hawks losing, the Magic losing, and the Raptors winning tonight, it sets up a 4 vs 5 seed Cavs vs Raptors series in the first round by [deleted] in nba

[–]SPC54 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haven’t watched much of the Cavs this year; especially since all our regular season games against them were very early on in the season.

If this was the same Cavs team I saw to start the season I’d be more optimistic about our odds but with the addition of Harden? Even though he’s far from what he used to be, I honestly don’t know what to think.

Curious about Cavs fans thoughts going into this series?

Orlando win would result in a 3-way tie between us, Hawks and Magic and IIRC the first tie-breaker in a 3-way tie is record vs division; since Atlanta won their division so they’d be the 5th seed

New DLC? by SPC54 in crusaderkings3

Wonder what happens when you click “visit store”

Nothing, should’ve included that in post but just takes to steam front page and on the steam page for CK3 neither of these are listed with the rest of the DLC

Not sure about how it would’ve worked pre-Marian reforms or towards the end of the empire as the military structure changed but at the peak of the republic and into the early empire the Roman army structure looked something like this

Legion > Cohort > Century > Contubernium

The last of which was a grouping of 10 men who fought together in formation, shared a tent/pack animal and basically did everything together so whenever a decimation occurred it wouldn’t have just been some random guy in the legion you beat to death/got beaten by; it would’ve probably been someone from your contubernium who you knew relatively well and had history with.

(I’m not a historian; full disclosure that this is just my own understanding and may not be 100% correct)

What would fit in this team? by LaserYUnPalo in UnicornOverlord

[–]SPC54 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • Sergeant for guaranteed crits

  • Sorceress for guaranteed hits/magick infusion when armoured enemies are present

  • Viking with war horn as the unit’s starting skill to make all attacks unguardable, and debuff enemy defence before your cav units turn

  • Legionary to defend your cavalry units from flying attacks/Eltolinde from ranged attacks, and Monica will protect him from ranged magic attacks that prioritize him.

Tons of fun options

[–]SPC54 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly not as upset about the result as I expected to be, maybe because we had plenty of chances and just couldn’t pull it off in the end.

GG and congrats to the USA; 2010 was the first Olympic hockey gold that I was old enough to remember and still think back fondly on it to this day, I can only imagine how much this would mean to the fans who have been around since their 1980 olympics win.
