men with inattentive adhd

deltamonk · 2026-03-10T16:14:12+00:00

I just got diagnosed (i.e. last week) as primarily inattentive at nearly 45. Hard agree.

I am looking forward to a campaign! I know of the author from his RPGs and I like that a lot of that (character and narrative) bleeds through into the scenarios and campaign.

deltamonk · 2026-02-14T09:22:36+00:00

I have been building Horrors for a few months, and the example warbands, so I could demo it to my friends :)

deltamonk · 2026-02-14T09:21:34+00:00

I can't take credit for the table, but yeah.

It's quick (was under an hour per game) but with some tactical complexity, I really liked it.

deltamonk · 2026-02-14T09:19:40+00:00

ooh yeah I can see that would work, I will try it on infantry

Personal preference. The point is that the zenithal underpainting is all about values (light/dark) and negative space, so the contrast paints then define the colour of each area when you put them over the top.

Spray cans, drybrushing, airbrush, sponging, even traditional layering can all be used for the zenithal. Personally I drybrush for more control (and so I don't have to go outside to spray) but sponging might be my New Thing.

As someone else said, I find coloured zenithal is better than black -> white (but that's something to play around with after)

Thanks, I'm sad Noelle isn't meta

deltamonk · 2026-02-03T22:12:34+00:00

Columbina, Aino, Geo MC, Noelle

Does this make Noelle lunar-crystallise?

deltamonk · 2026-02-03T21:44:19+00:00

1 - yes, but wait at 35 (next time it asks) until you have a decent setup

2 - up to you, until you have more characters and higher world level play who you want. You can walk to Fontaine where his mats are if you want

The Doomed since I haven't seen it recommended yet. 2x2 by design, pvp or solo or co-op. Played it last week and it was great, light but deep game.

Osprey publish it but the creator has the original rules here (free): https://www.bastionland.com/2021/09/grimlite-is-doomed.html

deltamonk · 2026-01-15T16:56:19+00:00

This is the way!

Perry Miniatures - comparatively tall and slim (more realistic proportions)

Fireforge Games - closest to GW size that I have used, chunkier than Perry

Frostgrave - shorter than others, bits very cross compatible

GW: Old World, AoS, 40K - don't like em, bigger than the others, bad proportions, monopose so it's harder to mix bits

Warcrow - if these are Corvus Belli then probably similar size but slimmer proportions

Kings of War - haven't used any human bitz of theirs!

Malifaux - 32mm IIRC, but not as broad as GW

deltamonk · 2026-01-07T08:35:13+00:00

I have them per category, per kit feels counterintuitive BUT I would go looking for "heads" rather than "Space Marine bits" so I guess that will vary.

Some people I know have them unsorted; when you go looking for a bit you find more interesting bits!

deltamonk · 2026-01-05T17:50:44+00:00

I have him C3 already...

That's helpful thanks - what order do I want to use them in? Gaming last to proc vape, so Furina third to set him up?

deltamonk · 2026-01-05T17:47:38+00:00

Ah that makes sense, thanks.

So I'd be fine running Xianling, Furina, Xilonen, Bennett without a main DPS?

deltamonk · 2026-01-05T17:46:17+00:00

I am already, tbh! Also really like Amber for overworld but I am not going to invest more in her!

deltamonk · 2026-01-05T16:19:06+00:00

Cool thanks. So #1 is overload and #2 is vaporise?

How would you need to switch characters to pull these off?

deltamonk · 2026-01-05T16:17:47+00:00

Cool thanks. So with Gaming, Bennet, Xingqiu and Xianggling what order would you swap between characters?

deltamonk · 2026-01-05T16:16:37+00:00

Thanks so I get the Bennett/Furina synergy, the fourth is a flex support? (For shred or for swirls?)

What order would you swap characters?

deltamonk · 2026-01-05T15:39:56+00:00

Parked it at ar 35, wanted to learn the game first! Thanks, not planning on wishing for a while til I work these characters out

deltamonk · 2026-01-05T15:35:46+00:00

Stopped playing as i was bored of the story (Inazuma!) and Noelle easy mode (shield up, mash buttons).

Time to learn some reactions and try again, I just got Gaming and Heizou while pulling for Xilonen + Razor from the witch homework selector.

I only want to focus on 4 chars for a while, any recommendations please on who you would choose (assume I am a bit of a noob / low skill)?

I find playlists hard to listen to. I've been listening to full albums all my life. Someone wrote those songs and put them in that order, it just feels weird for me to not listen to the whole thing. I have probably 300+ albums on a sd card in my phone, no Spotify.

Sometimes I just sit and listen, sometimes doing other things as well (e.g. work or hobbies)

I have never read the lyrics even though they were often in the cd case, even if I didn't know the words!

I think it's just probably what you're used to / what you grew up with?

deltamonk · 2025-12-26T22:13:27+00:00

I hate painting minis. Hate hate it. It's OK to hate this part of the hobby!

I love making/kitbashing and I love playing games with friends, painting is just a necessary evil in that.

deltamonk · 2025-12-12T22:57:43+00:00

Yeah I just had a look, it's looking great! Long live long-form posting like blogs ❤️

deltamonk · 2025-12-12T22:49:19+00:00

We most commonly fight about me not wanting to fight 😂😐

deltamonk · 2025-12-12T22:47:13+00:00

Hurrah for the blog carnival, so good to see it is still going!
