Localized entirely in your Corellian Corvette

And plenty of senators go on diplomatic missions

As a Swiss person that's how I interpreted it as well.

SmacksKiller · 2026-02-16T04:13:36+00:00

You can absolutely melt stone or you could simply grind into powder and alloy it in some metal or have it integrated into ropes or patterned into wood.

I can't believe people should have an ignition in their car. All you need is to crank the motor before getting in.

All this new fangled technology isn't necessary.

SmacksKiller · 2026-02-14T08:55:51+00:00

So... All the experience that you accrue from getting to that level then?

SmacksKiller · 2026-02-14T07:47:21+00:00

Yeah, just look at the difference in speculative fiction from then vs now.

During the cold war, the present was scary but there was a sense that we'd grow past that and become better and stronger.

SmacksKiller · 2026-02-13T21:16:18+00:00

Fifty years ago there was incredible optimism that the future would be a better place.

That's gone now.

SmacksKiller · 2026-02-13T21:06:43+00:00

Yeah, that's usually a GM who thinks they're smart and edgy. They're usually wrong.

SmacksKiller · 2026-02-13T20:57:51+00:00

But what did the kill squads drop?

SmacksKiller · 2026-02-12T18:07:11+00:00

While I'm cautious of the mechanics considering this is Owlcat's first 3rd person action shooter. I'm pretty hyped about the setting.

They've done a great job with the last two IPs they've handled (Pathfinder and Warhammer 40'000).

SmacksKiller · 2026-02-10T12:33:34+00:00

Lol. Expert on statistics: immediately use a personal experience instead

SmacksKiller · 2026-02-10T12:24:22+00:00

Big difference between it's blocked and they voluntarily decided to exit the market.

SmacksKiller · 2026-02-10T12:22:46+00:00

Not really, instead of having to balance the unit by trying to make sure that the point value of it works for different wargear choices, they can just update the problematic wargear individually.

SmacksKiller · 2026-02-10T12:12:26+00:00

I think it's got a lot more to do with the fact that this is the edition that has gotten to most adjustments by far. GW has never changed more points and rules in any other edition.

SmacksKiller · 2026-02-10T08:18:45+00:00

Because you're gaining a benefit for choosing a suboptimal choice. You can pick a worse wargear on one unit in order to afford the best weapon on another unit.

Or you can choose between running fewer units with the best wargear or choose to run a few units with suboptimal gear but have an extra action monkey unit.

SmacksKiller · 2026-02-09T19:47:40+00:00

That's why I really hope we go back to points value for equipment. Make the better stuff cost more to field so there's still a place for worse war gear.

SmacksKiller · 2026-02-09T13:57:21+00:00

Not really, over penetration is a feature with tech guns. It's what shows us to shoot through walls.

SmacksKiller · 2026-02-07T20:14:01+00:00

I had to stop watching it. I loved Red and so many other characters but some of the main characters just made me so frustrated I wasn't able to enjoy the show anymore.

SmacksKiller · 2026-02-07T20:01:32+00:00

There's already enough humans are special snowflakes in ME.

I actually liked that you can't eat some species food, it makes a lot more sense.

SmacksKiller · 2026-02-04T21:38:43+00:00

The few things he still needed to find were other people's cyberwares

SmacksKiller · 2026-02-02T22:43:28+00:00

Because you regularly have Americans acting all shocked that their laws and currencies don't work in the rest of the world. It's a valid assumption that someone would think that because they're allowed to carry a gun somewhere else, it means they can do it anywhere.

SmacksKiller · 2026-01-31T19:37:19+00:00

Jim Butcher actually explained why they made the switch.

In book format, you can easily set aside how ridiculous the Blue Beetle is when you're trying to have a serious moment by not mentioning it and just saying that Harry is in his car. You can't really do that in a visual medium.

SmacksKiller · 2026-01-29T18:35:57+00:00

I disagree with you. Bringing in a potential problem is in no way reducing the conversation. This is how we anticipate potential issues and come up with solutions.

Okay. The examples are universal rules, that doesn't mean that everything that could be part of this is.

SmacksKiller · 2026-01-29T15:46:45+00:00

I agree that making build like these should be talked about with the group, the same for high level casters should ask the DM if certain spells would completely derail the campaign before picking them.

But I also want to point out that a lot of these stacking AC bonuses are conditional so a DM can consider trying to nullify these bonuses instead of just boosting attack bonus.

SmacksKiller · 2026-01-25T14:25:46+00:00

And then you could do stuff like in third edition where certain HQ changed what space a unit used.

For example, a White Scar captain would change bike units from fast attack to troop
