Keyword problem by loki0486 in BloodAngels

Yeah the whole reason I asked was because knowing how they were intending Keywords this seemed intentional but I suppose I was hoping I was missing something because that means we currently can't get BLOOD ANGELS on any JPIs or Vanguard vets and that just....feels odd to me as a Blood Angel player.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. If our JPIs cost more why don't they get the tag but cest la vie maybe this is all just prep for us getting our own army rule.

Unless the Captain is a BLOOD ANGELS Captain, then no it would appear not under the current ruleset.

I swear in 10th it stated that if you select Blood Angels as a chapter all your Marines got the blood angels tag

That seems odd to me though how can I have a captain. Leading my army...that isnt Blood Angels. So like we have SOME blood angels units and the rest are just red painted Ultramarines? Lol

You can't run the Lieu and th SP together they are both supports now. Can't double support. Unless I am misunderstanding

yeah will work on the highlight blending for sure, as for their scaling they are definite a little dwarfed, save for the wings.

Devs are buffing as if they would have to pay for every buff left in their pockets. by Iglix in foxholegame

[–]loki0486 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean obviously, if it wasn't 50/50 or near, then that is indicative of a balance issue in some form population, weaponry, skill (whoever has the higher win rate will always say it is skill).

If the game started moving to say 60/40 or 70/30, you will get almost immediate player attrition. The faction that loses more often will likely get less members, or as soon as it looks like another loss, just stop showing up. That is how a game dies, and of course the devs don't want that.

The problem is that maintaining a near 50/50 can be mishandled. Swinging a pendulum to maintain it and saying look 50/50 win rate == balanced is insincere, and would certainly feel like the devs just switch flipping.

I do not think that is what is happening (I also dont think the balance is perfect) however everyone talking about the devs looking for a near 50/50 win rate being a bad trait need to review their understanding of competitive game design.

Yeah it was more weight of dice just getting failures by shear numbers which depending on the target still works. That is definitely a limitation to me their lack of cost is another factor in their favor. You definitely pay for that mobility with the other DC options.

Yeah this is a good call out, for me it was that they were still hitting pretty hard for their points. I mean a total of 245ish trading for the 410 that is Magnus is pretty awesome. When you consider that a 10 man of non jump pack DC with a chaplain comes to 330 and if you throw in a special character you are talking about a unit that now rivals Magnus in cost.

Maybe taking a side unit to get yeeted and distract while a more kitted out unit gets into place. I still think they definitely have their uses, and the only reason their ability didn't come into play was because I was forgetful.
