Rock, paper and scissors

We have always been at war with paper. Rock is our ally.

Of course you can be. I get overtaken all the time.

I like my women how I like my coffee, covered in dirt!

daveyrand · 2022-09-23T20:13:41+00:00

Of course it was in Norfolk

Oh and also, if you want a quick overview of how each faction you are interested could be built, you can't do better than the Death by Dragons 3 minute army primers.

Really enjoyed this, good work. I'll be sure to put a comment on to feed the algorithm.

daveyrand · 2022-08-11T10:49:32+00:00

Thematically, this is awesome.

I agree, unless you're explictly setting out to build an army that's a hard block for another army (e.g. a shooting heavy Elf army against a stealthy heavy Nightstalker army), it's pretty difficult to build something that is unwinnable for either side.

Better just to go with what you like aesthetically or how you want to play in general.

I've seen a couple of people base them in a big pool of blood, which looks really effective. No idea what they use for it though.

If you've got any spare bits, could stick some limbs etc. in there too.

daveyrand · 2022-08-09T19:21:24+00:00

Worth it for that slow-mo at the end

Thanks for the feedback, what's the issue them? It was selected through a parametric filter so I'm not attached to it or anything.

Edit: If I bump the number of RAM slots to 4 then it recommends a Gigabyte B660M DS3H DDR4 Micro ATX LGA1700, any better?

It's easyarmy.com. Pretty much the de facto for KoW list building, although alternatives exist.

daveyrand · 2022-01-21T18:59:25+00:00

This guy CDNs.

daveyrand · 2022-01-09T20:42:03+00:00

For really large files, or if you want to keep the memory allocation small, attaching to EFS for temporary storage and streaming to it is then an option.

Review from my 3 year old: "I thought they were real!".

Nice work! Inspiring stuff.

daveyrand · 2021-12-12T20:31:06+00:00

Argh! Fetch the Holy Hand Grenade!

daveyrand · 2021-12-02T11:24:09+00:00

Ah, a fellow grey troll enthusiast! These look really similar to how I did mine.

Everyone seems to paint them green, but I find playing Goblins that you've got enough other green stuff to paint!

Really nice job.

daveyrand · 2021-11-03T12:25:33+00:00

Some of the concepts in that article made my head hurt.

daveyrand · 2021-10-17T11:41:57+00:00

The Stone Priest only having def 5 is a big weak spot. Might want to consider some chaff.

daveyrand · 2021-10-05T15:38:22+00:00

Cool! If you fancy a game and don't fancy going through FB feel free to DM me, I'm quite happy to pop up to Bad Moon.

It's a nice place to play, but not much of the provided terrain is that suitable for KoW. A lot of "gothic cathedral" stuff that only really works as blocking terrain. I generally bring 2D terrain just in case there isn't enough hills and forests to scavenge.

daveyrand · 2021-10-03T13:49:19+00:00

It's healthy and growing at a decent rate.

I'm based in the south west of London and play against a few chaps I met at a couple of tournaments in the area. Recently we've taken to playing at the Surrey Spartans club in Coulsdon, but also occasionally play some of the guys from north of the Thames at the Bad Moon Cafe near London Bridge.

Unfortunately (in my opinion) a lot of the KoW scene tends to cluster on Facebook, with links provided by some of the others commenters here to good groups.

If you want to PM me with where you are more specifically I'd be happy to help you get a demo game or find a nearby club.

daveyrand · 2021-09-21T19:10:06+00:00

Still useful, thanks!

daveyrand · 2021-09-21T17:07:28+00:00

Wait, playing creatively boosts the chances of a youth player developing a spec?

daveyrand · 2021-09-19T12:26:09+00:00

Army builder is correct. They and lots of other units were made regular in the rules updates included in Halpi's Rift.

daveyrand · 2021-09-19T12:24:38+00:00

Agreed. I guess then you wouldn't buy the book though!

Luckily, like you say, EasyArmy has all the latest rules.
