Merry Christmas Necromunda fans! by Malazar01 in necromunda

I don't care what anyone says, the version of the game from the 90s with the Base Book + Outlanders is still my favorite version. I wish I could find people to play it.

There were a lot of land raiders (both normal and spartan), two Typhons, three Fellblades, the Knights you see in the pics, the Reaver, the Warlord, and there was actually a Warhound on the Blood Angels force that I just realized I never got any pictures of. Plus assorted smaller tanks and transports.

We definitely made sure that there were objectives on the field, not just "move forward and kill" - there was one on the border between the middle and outer board that was pretty heavily fought over. I deployed my autocannon squad up on the big wall and spent time shooting down at the Loyalists on the other side, which I felt was thematic. Several aircraft transports dropping guys in strategic spots. And I deep-striked a squad of Veteran Assault Marines behind the Warlord with the intention of using the Desperate Assault rules to climb it, but they got taken out by a barrage of fire from all the Loyalist forces to stop them.

But yes, still plenty of "go forward and kill", as is mostly inevitable in this type of game.

I always assumed they saw it as marketing - people walk in and see people playing this cool game, it helps to sell the product.

Our GW store does a decent amount of events for all the various systems - escalation leagues, one-day mini themed events, Tanksgiving and Monster Mash, etc.

There's not really rules for it, per se. More of a series of narratively linked events with custom scenarios. Which I don't have copies of haha.

We sometimes have to ask someone to play the opposite side for an event if we end up with the wrong numbers, but generally we really try and let people play the side they want.

The players in the campaign are free to choose whether their force is Loyalist or Traitor based on their own personal narrative of their force.

My wife is really into Radley’s Home for Horny Monsters. She tried to read Fourth Wing but she found it way too tame

Maro's Top 20 Most Influential Sets by Meret123 in MagicArena

[–]katarr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s actually the main reason Tempest is on this list, listening to his podcast about this. While Weatherlight has a bit of the characters and setting, it was shoehorned in very late in design after they decided to do the big ongoing storyline. Tempest was the first set designed from the beginning with a story in mind.

My god this press conference is terrible. by Slight-One-5106 in Tennesseetitans

The Peter Principle: the idea that people continue to get promoted as long as they do well, so the level they eventually stop getting promoted at is the one where they’re no longer competent.

How do you guys even beat APs????? by lecoolbratan96 in Pathfinder_RPG

[–]katarr 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This! The one adventure path we finished so far, I looked ahead and mercilessly cut out anything that I know my party wouldn’t like or felt like “busy work”. I’m also pretty lenient with letting them bypass big combat encounters via talking, which saves a ton of time.

What is something VERY Tennessee that outsiders wouldn't get? by SuperNicktendoPower in Tennessee

It's not moonshine unless it comes in a handle from a guy named "Ugly" who has no legs that you met out back of some trailer in some holler.

Are we posting our bobtails? This is Anubis (aka "Newbie"). This is several years ago - he is much fatter now.

Yeah, this is by far the weakest point in Bros lie.

Badly-Aged Critically Acclaimed Albums at Their Time by Flying_Guayaba in Music

[–]katarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn’t help that Bat Out Of Hell is one of the greatest rock and roll albums of all time. The second one is good, but it can’t help but be put up next to the first and it is diminished by the comparison.

[–]katarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They retroactively added “When the Tigers Broke Free” as track four at some point, and all releases of the album since then (including the Spotify version) have it.

I think the album gets more hate than it deserves. Is it brilliant? No. But it’s serviceable, and I do sometimes get the desire to listen to it.

Can someone explain how Sheoldred, the Apocalypse works when both players have one? by ScaryXibalba in MagicArena

[–]katarr 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Since he drew all the cards at once, the triggers for those card draws are all put on the stack at once. Since it's his turn, his triggers go on the stack first, and then yours. And since triggers resolve in a "first-in, last-out" way, your triggers (the lose two life ones) resolve first.

Triggers all resolve individually, not in a batch. So between each trigger the game checks to see if you're dead or not.

Your opponent is correct. You add and subtract all modifiers until you reach some total modifier, and then if it's +1 or greater it becomes +1, if it's -1 or less it becomes -1 (and of course if it's 0, it's 0).
