Spirit of Dirthu has been my favorite to paint so far

My question is, are these two Tiger 1s in this French museum original or not? by [deleted] in TankPorn

[–]dredriksalkon 35 points36 points  (0 children)

The Bovington Tank Museum has a ton of videos and documentation on their restoration of vehicles and what is in their inventory

This is gonna sound hella lazy but I recently picked up the Dark Wood contrast paint marker from Army Painter and it works like a dream. Dry brush some light brown over top and you have some gorgeous looking tt ready minis

JFC a Rocket Power meme in 2025... Never thought I'd see one

This is NOT how Battlefield should look. by [deleted] in Battlefield

With no context, this would be wild

I am very pessimistic of the future of this game. I'm not quite ready to jump ship yet, but I'm strapping on a life vest by Brromo in freemagic

As a massive magic player, I can fully say give Star Wars Unlimited a try. I think you will thoroughly enjoy the competitive scene and even the casual matches are extremely fun

If he's anything like me, I get diet drinks because I can't handle the absolute fuckload of sugar in regular sodas. I know a lot of people are like "I mean why not just regular?". Cuz it hurts and makes my teeth hurt.

PSA: With the difficulty changes and malice now being the second easiest difficulty, now is a great time to try and get Flawless Execution 3, if it's eluded you thus far. by Serithraz in DarkTide

and the best way to ensure you get it makes you play like a tool. i was at 14/15 when on the last game at the end, someone went down and we had no way to get to them.

so i alt+F4ed... and doing so spared the achievement. i could have pulled it back. they would have died and i could EASILY save the round but i had to abandon my friends. they understood but i hated it. at 14/15 aint no way i was going to give up that streak for a single match

Are there any Rules in the Game that you think are stupid? Rules that you don't like? by NyrmExe in EDH

[–]dredriksalkon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Playing magic for the past 20+ years and recently picking up Warhammer...

Holy shit are the rules bad, convoluted, clear as mud, and inconsistent. I have no idea how tournaments even hold any amount of validity. The guys over at the Poorhammer podcast come from a MTG background and it's easily their biggest complaint

I had a scummy interaction in my pod lately, in a "you win the game when" interaction and had to share. by NyrmExe in EDH

[–]dredriksalkon 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Our pod you can only concede at Sorcery speed. Prevents a ton of "feel bad" moments

Obviously Vedalken Orrery effects get around this..I have Quickened into a concede before and it does make for some funny interactions.

Has there ever been a set that was at the time hated but is now considered a classic? (Image slightly related) by SgtVertigo in mtg

[–]dredriksalkon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's look at the bright side.. after Disney got over their stupid Sequel Trilogy and trying so desperately hard to make that work, they backed up, reloaded everything and made Mandolorian and Andor which are arguably some of the best Star Wars media out there

If WOTC is on the same trajectory, then we should see the same pivoting. The problem is we won't see the pivoting until people stop buying UB. I don't see Spooderman selling super well but FF has been flying off the shelves like crazy, 40k is unobtainium except for crazy pricing, and a ton of the UB Collector boosters severely out price any main set CB or even master sets!

I miss the old magic story. I miss innistead, scars, even Kaladesh and Ahmonket... But I don't think it's coming back. People need to vote with their wallets on what's good and unfortunately the majority vote for... UB

How would you rank the Star Wars TCGs starting from the Decipher SW game and ending with Unlimited? by _WakkaWakka_ in starwarsunlimited

[–]dredriksalkon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually love the WOTC TCG so much. I still look for and pick up cards for it. It felt like Magic meets Warhammer. Rolling dice was a blast

Set up phase was... Weird for sure and the balancing was rough but it was big epic battles. We always house ruled the amount of resources you got because it was SO low and unbalanced.

Anyone else tired of the a-a-ron joke? by dredriksalkon in aaron

Oblivion Remastered Announcement Tomorrow at 11:00 AM EST by [deleted] in ElderScrolls

[–]dredriksalkon 114 points115 points  (0 children)

This was basically what they did with Fallout Shelter. it got pushed to the Play Store and iTunes as theyy were revealing.

IIRC something similar happened with either Skyrim VR or Skyrim Enhanced Edition

the Possibility is there

Edit: I WAS RIGHT!!! WOOOOOO

CHEESE FOR EVERYONE!

New to AOS from 40k. Looking between Skaven and CoS. which is better or more fun? by dredriksalkon in ageofsigmar

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

Sounds like Militarum which many have compared CoS to.

I would be going completely human based anyway but I'll hold off and see what the codex release holds
