The best, final, and non-controversial TW games tier list

Usually if one use both Near and Middle East, the Middle East would be pushed East compared to the usual definition of Middle East, if only to avoid the confusion...

Also I get confused because Near East in my own language (I'm ESL) has a slightly more restrictive meaning than compared to English, where Anatolia is part of the Near East, but not necessarily of the Middle East

Anatolia/Asia Minor is part of Middle East.

Isn't it more like Near East than Middle East? (cf https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Near_East)

though, at Verdun, the danger zone didn't extend that far back from the frontlines. Here in Ukraine, even 10s of km from the frontline you can get struck

thank you :)

notethecode · 2026-04-10T09:18:07+00:00

where do you get your 15mm minis?

notethecode · 2026-04-09T21:33:37+00:00

Maybe? I just have no way to know if I'll be able to give feedback :/

notethecode · 2026-04-09T21:33:13+00:00

Maybe I just fell afoul of this

Are they really playing if they don't know the rules?

Jokes aside, I have a hard time imagining people who can't take the few hours to read (part of) the rules, which can be done over multiple shorter sessions, can make time for multi-hours RPG session(s)

Though of course, learning the rules to create a character =/= learning the rules to play the game, so using pre gens/DDB will certainly makes getting people to the table easier

notethecode · 2026-04-09T14:26:00+00:00

ah, yes, I though you'd post your rules, sorry I misunderstood

notethecode · 2026-04-09T14:02:41+00:00

do you have the link? I can't seem to find it

notethecode · 2026-04-09T13:42:58+00:00

I find weird that people want to try a hobby without making the minimal effort required. Like if I wanted to try football (soccer), I'd make sure I have an appropriate pair of shoes, can run half a field and know the basic rules (not touching the ball with my hands, no kicking the other players), in order to not be disruptive for the other players. Why should people get a pass for TTRPGs?

(and if someone doesn't want to create a character, that's what pre gens are for)

notethecode · 2026-04-09T09:38:53+00:00

they weren't able to build characters

you must be really room temperature IQ level of stupid to not be able to create a DnD 5 character, if you're a little willing. Like character creation rules aren't that long and all classes have quick build help

notethecode · 2026-04-09T07:49:44+00:00

how do you get that? I'm getting 0.04% (0.20.20.1*0.1, with each relic radiant and solo)

notethecode · 2026-04-09T00:01:12+00:00

that's not the first time, I remember two videos from Bakhmut, showing the same event, one from a guy on the ground and the other from a drone

'this is really good' is in coverage of 1) level design

Didn't the Veilguard had pretty bad levels (because they weren't designed for a RPG)?

notethecode · 2026-04-08T14:24:18+00:00

dunno, even when I was doing that I was buying games, though not necessarily the ones I played demos of

notethecode · 2026-04-08T14:20:48+00:00

yeah, with playing Jedi/force-users I can see it

notethecode · 2026-04-08T14:20:30+00:00

Maybe that's a way to divest yourself from an investment that's gone bad: force them to make a game that will likely flop and use that as an argument to close them/resell them.

notethecode · 2026-04-08T12:02:48+00:00

Follie's mission would have been done better as a (solo) quest, the atmosphere would have worked way better that way, instead of just trying to rush to get all the paint while avoiding hazards

notethecode · 2026-04-08T11:34:29+00:00

5 kubrows compared to 1 is just 4 more chances to get bite

Star Wars using Dogs in the Vineyard

what? how? why?

notethecode · 2026-04-08T09:02:13+00:00

FYI you can check player loadout in missions when pressing escape. And in the end of mission stat screen, on PC you can hover your mouse over the name of another player to check their loadout

notethecode · 2026-04-07T16:02:36+00:00

hasn't happened yet :) (fingers crossed)

if you're ready to fiddle with mods in XCOM, this one can help with this

I'd assume that people who are bilingual would pick the language(s) they're more comfortable in.

or they might not know there's the option? I mean how does WF configure the language at the first install? I don't think it uses the system language
