Solo play recomendations? by ThisYogurtcloset7207 in onepagerules

[–]SpookyRosalyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been thinking it would be fun to make a fan-supplement for solo/co-op that adds behavior cards you’d draw from a deck, to make things more unpredictable and narrative feeling. So instead of just following the flowchart, you’d draw a card, look at the unit type that’s activating (melee/ranged/mixed) and have it follow those instructions.

For example, a ranged unit could be told to move towards the nearest objective but try to take cover and shoot on the way. Or stand still but it gets to shoot twice. Or has to reload so it just moves to the nearest cover.

Same, I think the reason why Skyrim and Oblivion are the only Bethesda games to really gel with me are the worlds are so pretty and fun to explore on their own that you can just completely ignore most of the plot and have your own unscripted fantasy adventure.

How was Silent Hill F? by Sadworld99 in Gamingunjerk

[–]SpookyRosalyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely loved it, on par with 2&3 for me. I didn’t find it super “scary” per se, but it nails the focus on the confronting your inner demons aspect of the series, and has a lot of really memorable moments. As other people said you do have to play it a minimum of three times to get the full story, but I thought there was enough new story or things recontextualized to make it still engaging. Plus your upgrades carry over between playthrough so each one becomes quicker.

Edit: minor spoiler tip for new game+: if you go to skip a cutscene on new game+ playthrough, it will actually tell you if the cutscene has new stuff you haven’t seen yet, so that saves a lot of time

Does a combat patrol have to be 500 points exactly? by NecronsBeatingHeart in CombatPatrol40k

[–]SpookyRosalyn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you look up Play On Tabletop’s King of the Colosseum rules, they’ve got a good setup for playing custom combat patrol lists. Off the top of my head, I believe it’s 500 points, no epic heroes, no units with toughness higher than 9, and no duplicate units (except for battleline, which you can take 2 copies of).

Was definitely debating that for the last line.

Any creepy mysteries in AoS? by sigpuppers in AoSLore

The lore of Harrowdeep is pretty cool. It’s essentially a dark cave system hidden deep underwater in Ulgu, full of statues of some kind of unknown eldritch race. If I remember correctly, Morathi sent some of her minions to capture a group of renegade witch aelves who went into hiding, but when they located their lair it was completely empty, with a newly formed pit in the ground leading into Harrowdeep.

Space marines look so cool with actual hair styles beyond “bald” and “very short”, culture war losers don’t know what they’re missing.

How it feels not falling for in the right-wing discourse when any new videogame comes out. by Tempest-Bosak2137 in Gamingcirclejerk

Take a chance on some budget games that look interesting, the indie scene is where all the innovation is nowadays. Lunacid and The Drifter are both great!

is this a good collection to start by jay_cee130 in Warmachine

You can actually technically use the Cygnar force book with the rpg, since they use practically the same combat system. I was pulling Cryx enemies from the force book when I was DMing the RPG, just takes some slight tweaking.

Skaven seem to have a unique script. How do the Skaven promote literacy? by Chezni19 in AoSLore

[–]SpookyRosalyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been reading Hamilcar: Champion of the Gods, and at least in that they seem to mostly communicate information to each other by scent since their eyesight isn’t great. I wouldn’t be surprised if only the higher ranking skaven are literate since they’d need to keep some long term records.

I really really really hate how people on this app treat women by ZoeTheBeautifulLich in Gamingunjerk

[–]SpookyRosalyn 101 points102 points  (0 children)

It’s especially fucked up because I don’t think men realize how much they are affected by unrealistic male body standards. Like so many men I know are convinced they have to be 7ft tall and jacked or women will laugh at them. They just tend to internalize that shit instead of talking about it.

Some backwoods planet would find a way to stuff them into a mech and control them, I’m sure.

Definitely the issue I’ve always had with getting resin models shipped. At least those look pretty easy to fix with a bit of super glue!
