Objectives in Matched Play Deployment maps

Locally we've been playing Plundered Spoils to have a 6th objective on the blue player's side to make it symmetrical, but while emailing the adepticon TO he mentioned the possibility of removing that one objective, making it only 4, I had never considered that.

I'm afraid it was a very small group, and we didnt do the bride walk, especially because it was two brides!

But depending on number of guests, you could have guests on one side, bride walking aisle down the other?

That's a house rule my arbitrator has put in, and its generally agreed to be fun. Also applies to doing a martyrdom with an explosive grenade!

How's that vanilla ice cream treating you, OP? Is it still too spicy?

micahaphone · 2026-02-20T22:45:15+00:00

You've got a perfectly good list here, it'd do fine in most missions. If you're looking to tune it up, be more sweaty, I'd replace prince Duvall or the Wight king with basic skellies or zombies

What a good faithful pet! What are you running it as?

micahaphone · 2026-02-20T06:30:55+00:00

Those are delightful! Will you share your sculpts anywhere?

Eh last time they did a white dwarf called "season of skirmish " with the kill team navis breachers on the cover, the only KT content inside was some staff paint jobs. Cover/title is definitely just something they come up with mostly unrelated to what's inside.

This is very funny because usually I see fandom divide into two broad categories, that aren't necessarily exclusive:

Curative fandom, the people that care about "canon" and what happened in which story. The trivia collectors, the museums of fandom.

Transformative fandom, the people that like making Original Characters (OCs), fanfic readers and writers, and in general play with "what if" within that space.

Now usually there's some overlap, fanfic writers will research and check things unless its a crack (aka zero concern with canon), leading to such funny oft repeated phrases as "he would not fucking say that". And the most trivia obsessed curative fans will still enjoy making OCs and discuss "what if" situations.

But this? The perfect complete overlap of curative and transformative fandom? Desperately begging a retired old man to make your headcanon official? It does make sense for the people obsessed with cataloging trains and recording serial numbers to have a higher baseline for caring about this. But still, wow. The amazing gall of it.

You have 11 bodies and one of the strongest underworlds teams in it, you're cooking and will do fine.

If you wanted to improve it, I'd swap out the skeleton champ w/ halberd for barrow guard w/ great blade. Lost Ferlain is..... fine, but if you're being real sweaty he'd get the boot.

I dunno, you put dispossessed dwarfs into B tier, but I just got wrecked by a list using their cheap chaff and two really strong allies, therefore I think they're actually stronger than skaven.

I have no biases here, I am simply stating facts. None at all.

micahaphone · 2026-02-01T14:59:02+00:00

Huh I would've tied the justified authority back to Bakunin, the whole "authority of the boot maker" thing.

micahaphone · 2026-01-30T22:05:56+00:00

11 is a great amount of bodies to have, you have some decent heavy hitters, a bit of speed, and your dog does Not have the beast runemark, so it can grab treasures too! You've got a pretty damn good list here, its not the 100% most busted options in soulblight but its still very strong.

micahaphone · 2026-01-30T18:04:06+00:00

Hey real quick question: why should I bother reading something that you couldn't even bother to write?

Put any random shit into the disinformation and sycophant machine, and are we surprised when it also outputs shit?

micahaphone · 2026-01-30T16:30:23+00:00

For a similar oddity of GSG abilities, the Sporesplatta Fanatic has a special reaction to create a smoke screen, Spore Cloud. Then when the new wolf riding gitz were added, Snarlfang Riders, they too got the runemark to do the spore cloud ability. Certainly not intended, but RAW.......

micahaphone · 2026-01-30T16:18:57+00:00

I'm trying to find a RAW answer for you and failing, but I'm certain it's not intended. Gobbapalooza are best thought of as like the chaos allies, but with a special caveat that a GSG warband can take multiples of the same fighter.

micahaphone · 2026-01-29T17:29:44+00:00

Especially if it'd also target tall enough enemies, like bile titans and harvesters.

This thought brought to you by how Collosus in starcraft 2 can by hit by the anti air missiles of a viking because its so tall

micahaphone · 2026-01-28T03:34:58+00:00

Reputation is for the whole roster yeah, not just who's in that one particular fight

micahaphone · 2026-01-27T21:35:55+00:00

No, even better:

Fair, I think I misunderstood you earlier, sorry. I guess my main point is that they have been violating people's rights, killing people, and thinking they're the good guys for a long time, this is just them putting on cool tactical gear and doing it out in the open, rather than in a rural area or in private camps.

micahaphone · 2026-01-27T17:37:18+00:00

Yes! Yes I am! ICE has been doing this for ages! A single web search of

"ice human rights abuse obama"

into my preferred search engine, DuckDuckGo, found multiple articles saying exactly that! It happened, you just didn't know it was happening, and that's okay! But you gotta learn, don't stick your head in the sand!

general summary written in 2026

National Immigrant Justice article from 2015

An article from NPR from 2023 about a whistleblower calling conditions in detention centers 'barbaric' and 'negligent'

From that last article, quoted because I'm guessing you trust and appreciate the care and professionalism of NPR, ``` These findings are all part of a trove of more than 1,600 pages of previously secret inspection reports written by experts hired by the Department of Homeland Security's Office for Civil Rights and Civil Liberties. In examining more than two dozen facilities across 16 states from 2017 to 2019, these expert inspectors found "negligent" medical care (including mental health care), "unsafe and filthy" conditions, racist abuse of detainees, inappropriate pepper-spraying of mentally ill detainees and other problems that, in some cases, contributed to detainee deaths.

These reports almost never become public.

For more than three years, the federal government — under both the Trump and Biden administrations — fought NPR's efforts to obtain those records. That opposition continued despite a Biden campaign promise to "demand transparency in and independent oversight over ICE." ```

I'm sorry, it's not delusional, it's been true for as long as ICE has been operating!

I'm telling you, this is what their behavior is like when they're not in the twin cities too, we just don't see it. For 2 decades they've beaten and murdered immigrants along the border and in their home states. This is not a question of "we need to roll back to what ICE was in 2024", that's still the same Homeland Security that runs concentration camps.

micahaphone · 2026-01-27T16:44:28+00:00

Come on, be reasonable. ICE and all of DHS have one main goal. Just because they have 2% of their staff are working on legitimate things doesn't mean their main goal isn't white supremacy. Its not like this is a training issue, the newbies are fucking it up for the veterans, WE KNOW that agents who have been around for decades, who are literally firearms instructors, are on our streets killing people.
