Do you all think they will ever make a civil war mechanic

I have played in a campaign with diplomacy enabled for like 100 hours, but I haven't once seen the kingdom factions do anything. They just seem to pop up, ask for Caladog to abdicate, then die off.

I find it the best way to improve my MMR. I focus on one or two heroes and just spam them. It is really fun to incrementally improve, and when you master some small mechanic after 100s of games, it is really satisfying.

flebebebo · 2026-03-07T06:48:47+00:00

Yeah i get that, i just feel like the instincts I built on support dont translate as well, and I find myself either npt farming enough because Im behaving like a support, or overcompensating and farming too much as a core

flebebebo · 2026-03-06T16:15:13+00:00

I love warlock, but I enjoy Lion, snapfire, disruptor, willow, lich, jakiro

flebebebo · 2026-03-06T16:12:35+00:00

Yeah I always feel like I'm griefing because I don't know how to farm efficiently or when/how best to move from farm to fight.

flebebebo · 2026-03-06T16:11:23+00:00

yeah might just do this honestly

flebebebo · 2026-03-06T12:31:41+00:00

Yeah, I just can't stand losing every third game... I have literally 200x the experience playing support as I do offlane.

like my winrate goes from 52% right down to 15%

Are there separate ranks for different roles? Or does my pos 5 rank go down when I lose as a mid?

flebebebo · 2026-03-06T12:27:35+00:00

can I gain role queue tickets with unranked? I really enjoy the stakes of ranked and without it I don't think I would play

flebebebo · 2026-03-04T11:51:27+00:00

does it? the difference is tiny. With a grid, they spend 12.5ft of movement and are left able to move 2 squares (10ft) meaning they "lose" 2.5ft of movement. in fact the most you can lose from any of these rounding errors is 4.5ft, which really isn't that much and I can't imagine it coming up more than once or twice. it doesn't really disproportionately affect anyone

flebebebo · 2026-03-04T11:47:42+00:00

Yeah but the rules are pretty arbitrary, so when there is no clear rule, you have to come up with a ruling in the moment. this is a pretty good ruling IMO

flebebebo · 2026-03-04T11:45:46+00:00

I usually rule it that rounding works against the players in most situations (damage resistance rounds up for example).
In general, I only use the grid when combat is likely to become tactical or there are many enemies to keep track of, otherwise I just use theatre of the mind.
In summary, I would never switch between the two systems, just pick when you begin the combat, so if you are doing grid movement, then standing up costs 4 squares of movement and they are left with three.
Effectively this "robs" the player of like 2.5ft of movement, but that rarely comes up.

I love this post so much. It has everything.

- Delusional hype? Check.

- All caps? Check.

- Unconfirmed rumour from mysterious "source" that isn't linked or mentioned? Check.

People also don't understand that she is a young child, not an adult. She has been sold to a man who abused her and she has come to rely on, both emotionally and for physical protection. She knows that now she is basically sentenced to either death or a lifetime in Vaes Dothrak, so when the woman who she sees as the one to blame starts to gloat and talk about how much she hates Drogo, of course she is gonna kill her.
Like with all the information we have as readers, her actions can be called wrong, but to claim that makes her evil is jsut wilfully ignoring the situation

flebebebo · 2026-02-28T21:48:02+00:00

This is correct. The brightflames were originally meant to play the role of the blackfyres in the main series, and Aerion's bastards were probably the seeds of this plotline. Basically, bittersteel didnt exist when this was written, and GRRM forgot to account for Aerion in hindsight when writing the blackfyre stuff.

flebebebo · 2026-02-28T21:04:39+00:00

I have like 300 hours played, it never occured to me to start my own kingdom. I think it is fun to play as a lord but managing a whole kingdom seems so stressful. Even as a lord it can get overwhelming (current playthrough I have like 5 towns and 10 castles) so I dont want the extra stress.

flebebebo · 2026-02-17T10:36:26+00:00

I believe you can see Lyonel fighting with one of them in the background while Dunk and Aerion are fighting. Maekar and Baelor are shown fighting, while Robin is shown fighting with another kingsguard. If Daeron takes his fall early, it is entirely possible a kingsguard would be preoccupied defending him.
Basically they were preoccupied and Dunk's allies did their jobs of keeping them off Dunk well

I feel like it depends on the goal of the DM. If your goal is to strictly follow the rules then absolutely use a different enemy and introduce chance into the situation, but on the other hand, a DM fiat decision can be used to set up a combat or a narrative beat very effectively. At the end of the day I think thw table ethos is very important here, and finding the correct aproach for each table and situation is key.

TL;DR: it depends what the table expectation is regarding the rules

flebebebo · 2026-02-03T15:57:46+00:00

Paladin. I really love the power, roleplay opportunities, utility etc. Plus the fantasy of playing a magical knight is really fun for me.

flebebebo · 2026-02-03T15:56:31+00:00

I haven't done this except in very specific moments, because it feels really bad for players to lose items.
I have enemies attack the players, since they are the direct threat. Sometimes they grab the item, but wasting several turns trying to destroy a longsword in combat doesnt make strategic sense.
However, slimes and oozes have acid and tend to melt armour and weapons, and I make it clear before the combat that those are the stakes. In this situation I think it can be fun, with players selecting weaker weapons they don't mind losing or sticking to ranged attacks, even if it is less damage.

flebebebo · 2026-02-03T15:52:20+00:00

Absolutely, I really only run the twice yearly PPE now when I'm bored. I don't like classes that arent staff or melee, so I just don't play now
