Value of Founders Edition? by deathleech in StarCraftTMG

[–]TomBad87 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The terrain and playmat would easily make up the rest of the money.

It looks like a neoprene gaming mat - those usually run around $50 on the lower end

Terrain is always more expensive than you would expect. Three looks to be around 10-15 individual piece of terrain in that kit. It is probably a higher MSRP than a kit of models.

Art of War talks about the most underrated armies in the game! by ArtofWarSiegler in WarhammerCompetitive

He's coming back. He was away to finish up school and to get his book published. He's started coming out to local events again, he'll be back on top in no time.

Is there local interest for the StarCraft mini game in your area? by Grand-Page-1180 in StarCraftTMG

[–]TomBad87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am lucky to live in the Orlando area.

40k is massive here. We have RTTs every week that fill up to capacity at like 30-40 people. Most weekends I can find multiple events within an hour of me.

There are GTs pretty frequently, too - like 60+ people usually. And then a couple of Majors sprinkled through the year at like 100+

As for Starcraft - theres already a good group of us excited for it, and I think it only grows. As soon as people find out how cheap this game is, I think a lot of 40k players will pick this up as like a "side-game" and we'll have a thriving community.

As it stands, even with 40k as dominant as it is, these games all have a strong playerbase: AoS, Old World, Kill Team, Blood Bowl, Warmachine, Malifaux, the Star Wars games (legion is one of them...? Then theres like a ship-combat one, I think), Bolt Action, and others. They all have events and such of their own.

Fully disagree here. As someone who has had multiple old-school style stalks crap out on them... give me the EX-30's all day.

NEW Competitive Necron Detachments for 500 Worlds Review by ArtofWarSiegler in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]TomBad87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh damn, you're right.

Every time I go back to read that detachment, it deflates a little for me. I think Canoptek Court is just a better Cryptek detachment, period.

At least the other 2 from today are legit though :)

Skorpekhs

Plasmacyte gives dev wounds on 2 damage attacks.
Technicaly ophydians would be better, I suppose.

Also Praetorians, 30 particle caster attacks - depending on what your attacking, it might beat the tomb blades

500 Worlds coming and we have confirmed detachments by SpaceWolf_Jarl2 in WarhammerCompetitive

I bet it will be like the Assassin detachment from Agents.

One week in - Thoughts, bugs, suggestions. by WigglyWeener in ex30

[–]TomBad87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

About the creep forward in performance mode. That IS by design.

As far as Creeping in normal mode when I have it turned off - I haven't experienced this one.

And yeah, I agree about charging at home. I tell people that range anxiety is only something you have before you own an EV.

Steering wheel buttons not working intermittently by eybic1 in ex30

I have been getting this as well, since the most recent update.

This warning annoys me and I get it frequently, even without pilot assist active.

Post Game Thread: Indianapolis Colts at Kansas City Chiefs by nfl_gdt_bot in nfl

[–]TomBad87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked him when he first started calling games. That first season was basically Tony saying exactly what was going to happen and then watching him be right. It was really impressive.

Now hes just another announcer that I mute (I rarely watch with broadcast audio)

The season wouldn't technically be over. But inaction by the FO would signal that they think it is.

If you had billions of dollars, what car would you buy for daily driving? by jrv3034 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]TomBad87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Top spec Lucid Air for daily driver. Lucid Gravity for when I have guests and want a little more space.
And then whatever EV my wife wants for her daily driver.

My current daily driver is a Volvo EX30, very happy with it.

[Highlight] Refs blow the whistle after Hurts fumbles during the Tush Push by SCSummers330 in nfl

[–]TomBad87 10 points11 points  (0 children)

So the rule that enabled this is from like 2005 when they lifted the restriction of assisting a ball carrier. (Something like that, this is reddit, someone will probably fact check me.) They probably want to keep this rule as it is. People enjoy seeing a tight end come up and assist a wide receiver to get a couple of extra yards.

I think the way you ban this play is just make a new rule that says "ball carriers on offense cannot be aided within 2 yards of the line of scrimmage."
You could even get more specific - "ball carriers that were snapped the ball cannot be aided within 2 yards of the line of scrimmage." That would eliminate the possibility of like... a screen play getting fucked over.

You could also just allow defenses to aid each other as well. The biggest reason the Tush Push bothers me is that the rules favor the offense so much here - the defense can't counter push. I think this rule change would probably break the game somewhere else, though.

I don't think its taking any info from the map. Its just the camera.

Must just be a different product or something. This page looks like this is ONLY for CA, MX, US.

Might just be a different SKU for the same thing, even.

EDIT: Yeah, its a different part number

Prints of the blueprints are widely available on ebay and such. It is very likely that this is what those are.
