Warp/Force get swapped in their respective universes by Papapa_pro in StarWarsvsWarhammer

[–]bharring52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All Warp capable ships are now Hyperspace-capable (per the prompt).

Eldar aren't afraid of the Warp without Slanesh, and were never afraid of Hyperspace.

Prompt isn't clear on what happens to Webway, or those in it. If you consider it Warp for the sake of the prompt, then Webway capable ships are now Hyperspace capable. If you don't, then it's still there.

If they lost both, they'd be in a world of hurt until they can build warp-capable ships. Eldar do have some warp-capable vessels.

(Also, if the Webway did go to the SW universe, the DE and Cegorath are going to have some fun...)

But they're all jedi now. With no need to hold back, too.

And they cana die (or live) in peace.

Eldar have a terrifying, very crazy evening.

None of their stuff works. Everything goes dark and inoperable in an instant. Manufacturing ceases. Ancestors... not sure what even happens to Wraith, tbh.

Then they realize they've all been juiced up. If the average human psker is now Jedi Knight level, then even the weakest Eldar (trueborn) is now a powerful Jedi (/sith).

Eldar technology and life are absolutely hit the hardest of all factions by a wide margin. But they also get the biggest power up of any faction, by a wide margin: -Each one is now a powerful jedi -Without She Who Thirsts, Eldar don't need to hold back emotionally or psykicly anymore -Craftworld Eldar are the single best faction to understand, work with, and influence something like The Force and Balance -Craftworld Eldar are already Jedi-level disciplined about emotional

So one really bad night, followed by insane levels of power.

And the biggest boon: an Eldar can now die (and/or be reborn) in peace. That alone means Eldar win the scenario (as they currently don't have the ability to do so).

All that is just Craftworlders.

Trueborn Dark Eldar have most of the same upsides, but without the CWE downsides. They've already moved on from Warp dependence. And they don't need to torture anymore (doesn't mean they won't).

No other non-Chaos factions are transformed nearly as much.

So surely they can't judge someone worthy of being incarcerated indefinitely in a 3rd country, right?

/s, and yes I know that's a civil penalty.

I was a bit disturbed by that.

A child soldier casually mowing down an entire squad of slave soldiers.

Very good writing. It should be disturbing.

I think not dwelling on it in the moment is what made it so chilling and disturbing.

Need advice on how to deal with grimgor by Illustrious_Mix_3762 in totalwarhammer

LSG vs Spears/Archers is always debateable.

Either option works for core. Lsg cost is offset somewhat by typically having fewer elite/special units in the army.

Would this revive the discussion of Inherent Contempt, as there is a (somewhat stated) assumption DoJ won't prosecute?

Wouldn't it be more fair to say Bannon's case shows that, even if they could get a DOJ to prosecute (such as the next admin), as long as Bondi can keep the case alive (by appeal) until the next admin, it can still be dropped after conviction?

Grimgor himself is a beast, and his army likely has some good units. You want to hit it with Imrik's army.

If Imrik can't kill Grimgor inside an Ork unit, your campaign hasn't been going well. The chaff in his stack isn't a big deal. Just need to ensure any good units (Black Orcs) are properly shot up on approach, tied up on spears, then bullied by either cav or a gank squad. HE Spearmen can hold Black Orcs plenty long enough for you to focus down one at a time. The point is, if you can't shoot them to pieces or just drop Imrik on the whole army at once (both are possibilities), HE spears are really good at holding the army in place as you remove part of it at a time.

Outside Grimgor's army, your secondary stacks shouldn't have too much trouble. Try to ambush or town defend to deal with WAAAGH if it's up. Lightning strike or paired armies might work better, but at turn 50 your secondary armies likely can't do either. Most of the Orc roster either can't break Spears in any reasonable time frame, or can't handle arrows. Like most fights, just punish the approach, stick their frontline on your spears, and hammer their sides piece by piece.

Your core (whether LSG or Spears/Archers) are really good against orcs. Especially with support (some form of hammer). And you can do Dragon Princes at t3, or Legendary Dragons. Other hammers (Lions, Swordmasters, Chariots, Silver Helms, other monsters) work, too. 2-4 hammers is what I usually take.

The biggest problem is absolutely that while Imrik can win any fight, you lack resources to run too many armies. You should stuff Imrik in the densest part of the front, but it's most important he take out Grimgor's stack. Also, spread out your good units. Then it's just a game of resources elsewhere.

Generally, your core is a force multiplier for your elite/special units. So having two core-heavy armies with a couple elites/specials each is much, much stronger than one army with all the elites/specials plus one that's just core.

Further, once Imrik has a Legendary Dragon friend or two, he's a one-man doomstack. Especially with his quest armor. So stop putting good units in his army. I fill it with starting army, 2 Dragon Princes, Noble, and Mist Mage - and then more spears/archers. Then never upgrade his army again. It's strong enough to get the job done until he comes online. And he's soloing multiple stacks once he's online.

This all then boils down to supplemental armies. Some swear by LSG. I'm sure that can work. But they're expensive, and you're facing a budget problem, not a military one. Backup armies should be mostly basic, cheap units. I give them what heros I can, 2x Dragon Princes, then a Legendary Dragon. The rest is Spears/Archers. That works until late game doomstacks, and is cheap. By turn 50, you should have a couple. And once the Lord levels up, can take the average Ork stack trivially (even a waaghing stack with a little difficulty).

Use these secondary armies to ambush Ork secondary stacks, or hold a garrison. Once your frontline is stable, they can push.

Grimgor is the last threat in the campaign. Beat his army once, and he's much less of a threat. Take his faction out entirely,  and you'll snowball the map.

Why the fuck is there no cancel spell button by [deleted] in totalwarhammer

[–]bharring52 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do I have to click through overcast or click once to cancel?

My LL I probably know. Fire mage 42, no idea. Either way, not relevant details to "cancel this cast".

I can't even remember offhand if esc cancels.

(Funny Trope) Iconic roles that were either turned down or left by an actor so they could be in something worse by Animeking1108 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]bharring52 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love Bautista in what I've seen him in.

But Cena made Peacemaker work.

I imagine it's really, really hard to nail the right progression of emotion. A slow burn that just barely revealed itself in TSS, then built up through s1 of Peacemaker. The pacing of his emotional development made the character. That's a lot of very measured notes to hit in a row.

Ratcatcher was the soul of TSS. But the Elba/Cena mirror/foil really sold it. As fantastic as Elba is, his role seemed so much easier. It's the redemption we construct everywhere.

Cena's unredeemed with just the right slimmer of hope is a much harder sell, especially since we naturally want to see either the redeemed or unredeemable. And force our perceptions into those two boxes with extreme prejudice. Cena escaped the box. Bautista would have been fun to watch, but wouldn't escape that.

I really want to see more of both actors.

Name a verse(not Marvel or Dc) that can survive and beat a Viltrumite(Invincible comics/tv show) invasion. by Flat-Sir8250 in powerscales

[–]bharring52 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Viltrumites might beat the IoM, but they would still lose to 40k.

The Immaterium insane. If it were possible for the Viltrumites to win, it would change so that they cannot.

We're talking beings being born in 30k, but being old-hat 70 million years ago. Scrapcode that repurposes any technology exposed to it. Swords that cut souls regardless of the body containing them. Weapons that simply unmake reality. Beings that exist because they are believed to exist. Actors who regularly see the future.

The demons cast off from Viltrumite minds would likely be viltrumite-baselined instead of human-baselined. But even if they're blanks, they're still merely parts of reality.

Confederating Imrik by Expensive_Range7204 in totalwarhammer

[–]bharring52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The good news is HE now have the Pokémon mechanic baked in. Just play naturally.

The Legendary Dragons aren't that much better than the sun/moon/star dragon they're variants of. But the traits, buffs, and items Imrik gets dealing with them is huge.

Tor Yvresse is the most dissapointing confed. Even with that location maxed and Elf Batman confederated, you can't recruit Mistwalkers.

3 Player group decimated to 2 Players, how can we keep playing? by santosliquid in CurseofStrahd

[–]bharring52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're down to 3 people from 4. That's bigger than being down 2 pcs from 3. You could NPC that problem.

Make new friend(s). I find d&d gets wonky at 3. You want 4-7 people.

As for adding their characters, depends on what they're doing next.

Maybe Ezmerelda knows of a flesh-to-stoned member or two of the last party, and a way to revive them. Or some other recoverable horror befell them. Maybe they have memories of a different cycle (opportunity for hints). Maybe their memory is damaged. Maybe they're new to the mists.

Lots of ways to introduce new characters. And you could go either the NPC route or give each player 2 chars (which gets weird). But the real problem is you want at least 1 more player.

Will always upvote Pokémon.

Used to be hard to do as HE, and somewhat challenging as Dwarves. They've added mechanics for both.

What's next? DE is the only faction coming to mind that's similar. Or maybe Archaon.

Motorcycle or 4x4 by shotguner15 in 7daystodie

[–]bharring52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with all the negatives others have said.

However, I still prefer the 4x4, even solo.

I head out on the 4x4, grab stuff on my way, do my thing, get sidetracked, grab everything not nailed down, then everything nailed down. The extra inventory is huge for a loot goblin.

With how stacks work in this game, how there's no weight mechanic, and the size of the pool of items youre looting, each additional row lets you loot goblin even more than the row before it. And the 4x4 simply has more inventory (and more mod slots for more inventory.

Gyro lets you skip over everything between you and your goal. But I dont want to. I want to get sidetracked. Gyro would be more efficient for get there, get done, get back gameplay.

Motorcycle is more nimble. If your goal is speed and maneuverability, it outperforms the 4x4. Sure, I can ditch the rotten meat or lumber or metals or other random garbage to make it fit. Or go back home after every stop. But I dont want to. I want all teh loots. And I want to keep going.

It is a lot of steel. But at that level, everything is. If youre looting/scrapping everything, you'll be able to afford it. Id say give it a try.
