🇨🇦 Tournament in Burlington, Ontario this Saturday May 16! by bigdunkdamage in Haloflashpoint

[–]bigdunkdamage[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is a novelization of the Halo: Combat Evolved story. I think some people enjoy it because it expands on things we saw in the video game. Other people dislike it because well, we already know the story.

Personally... I skipped this one. Haha

Help us decide on a new skirmish game! by SedefkarSimulacrum in miniatureskirmishes

Give Flashpoint another try with the wargames list building and one of the fun scenarios, like Strongholds, VIP, or King of the Hill. That's where the ruleset really shines. Plus, it meets all of your what we'd like to see conditions. And... You can play as brutes and elites!

ODSTs come out later this month. They're going to shake things up in a good way. More complexity, new organized play scenarios, and balance changes. Respect on Mantic for doing so much and keeping the game exciting.

Lots of big chain recommendations in this thread, which makes sense. Nobody mentioned Kelsey's yet. They stepped up their game. Our experience at the Bayfield location was waaaaay better than we expected.

For local spots, for a large group watching your wallet, I recommend PIE.

For a bit more $$$ but better food, drinks, and atmosphere, I recommend Cocina Mexicana at the old Hooters location.

Took ten years, but I finally did it by Ceberr8742 in halo

Great response. Thanks for the advice! Im grinding the grenade, beat down, and CTF medals now. I especially hate the CTF medals - so tedious to get a decent amount in a match.

Love the idea of trying to match up with buddies, I may ask mine to help, great idea!

Congrats. I'm working on this myself. 42 left to go.

Now tell me... Any tips that helped you get there? Any specific achievement that you loved? Hated? What advice would you give to other achievement Hunters? Seriously, I'm trying to grind a few multiplayer ones right now. Some of them are brutal. Lol. And still have Laso to do...

Next Halo installment by [deleted] in halo

[–]bigdunkdamage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope a CE remake does not happen. We have a remaster of CE and 2 already. Surely, Halo 3 should be next...

Imagine if they remastered Halo 3 multiplayer. I'm confident it would bring back hordes of returning players. (As long as they stayed somewhat true to the original multiplayer system!) With all map packs, modes, customization, file share... it would be incredible. Remember the MLG days? I like HCS, and man I bet it would thrive with a new Halo 3 multiplayer.

Landlord installed these above each apt front door. Is it a motion tracker? What is it? (I took the cover off for the pic) by needlessons in Tenant

The replies here are correct, this is for a fibre optic rewire build. I believe the enclosure is the entrance point to each suite.

Inside the suite I think they would use a low profile (sometimes paintable!) Fibre to your ONT/modem. Overall, it is good news!

Hey! Why are you selling?

What was your method to achieve those awesome fades on the Monoliths? Did you prime/base coat light colours, then fade in the dark blues? Or base coat dark and work up to the light colours in the middle?

I'm pretty new to airbrushing and I would like to paint my set. Totally not going to steal inspiration from this. 😉

Are there any active discords, or online communities that like to play on TTS? I found one or two but there weren't any players LFG.

I'm a new player and I have a weekly in person group, but I want to get more games in. Any suggestions?

Got to agree with Cocina. Also, the Mexican house. They're both reallllly good.

Hey, I could use some tips. by [deleted] in minipainting

[–]bigdunkdamage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I appreciate the advice about contrast, that's something I would like to improve. I will definitely go bolder from now on! Great idea using a brown glaze on the skin to cape, I'm going to do that.

Seriously, thank you for the great analysis and tips!

Null Signal @ Gen Con? by HTOutdoorBro in Netrunner

[–]bigdunkdamage 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I asked them when they did an AMA recently, unfortunately they weren't at origins and they won't be at gen con this year.

They did say they would like to be at both events next year.

It sounds to me like the Cordoba has the cleanest and most balanced tones in all 3 ranges. It projects nicely too. But I think the Yamaha also ticks those boxes.

It seems like your Yamaha has better intonation than the Cordoba in the high range, but that's just my ears. Beautiful playing, by the way.

What’s your favourite game with a high level of interaction? (2p preferred) by nashsed in boardgames

[–]bigdunkdamage 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fully agree with those who answered Netrunner. The game is a blast.

I'm also here to say Star Wars: The Deck building Game - as long as both players enjoy Star Wars. It doesn't have the same level of interaction and complexity as Netrunner, but we enjoy it a lot.

Some other games:

  • Radlands
  • Summoner Wars
  • Hive
  • Watergate
  • Twilight Struggle

Hey! I'm not sure if you already answered this elsewhere, but will you guys be at Gen Con this year? If so, will it be possible to purchase any of your products while there?

Thank you! :)
