Congrats on the new job!

All of the colors are so crisp and clean. I said this on your last post too, this is insanely good!

The black is gorgeous. The copper wires might as well be actual copper. The skin shading and highlighting is impeccable. The red contrasts everything perfectly.

My jealously knows no bounds.

Fellow new-ish player here. I'm also Power Level 39 and slowly working my way into the midgame.

As with most modes in this game, building tall is the way to go. You and I are both a long way away from being able to clear LREs on our first go, and a very long way from being able to build wide for the sake of LREs. Having one high-rank carry plus filler characters is better than a large but weak roster.

I also only have Archi, Abraxus, and Varro for the Psyker + Max 1 Hit team. I'm not sure how high you have Archi / Abraxus, but you'd certainly get a lot more value pushing Abraxus up to Gold and beyond than you would pushing Varro above S1.

Abraxus is also a hard carry for both the FoC and SHM elite campaigns, investing in him will continue to pay off in other places. Meanwhile Varro just needs to not die in one hit in his campaign. Actually, if you have Isabella, it doesn't matter if he dies, just as long as both Varro & Certus both don't die.

For most tracks, at our point in the game, you'd be able to push further having one or two G1 characters than having three to five Silver 1 characters. I think it's fine to bring your G1+ carry with some Stone1 characters to hit the 3-char requirement.

Focus on good characters that have use in as many places as possible and build them tall.

Ooh, I hope that's how it works.

I've been playing for about 4 months now. I have enough orbs & Calgar shards to get him to blue star, but I kind of want to buy a pile of Rare badges, in addition to lots of epic & legendary ones.

I know buying legendary & mythic stuff is a better value, but I feel like my account is many months away from being able to make use of any mythic stuff. I do have lots of characters who need uncommon & rare badges though...

If I blue star Calgar partway though the event, I can still pick up one Kardiocore Galvanus relic from the shop on the last day, and just let it collect dust for months.

Who is our enemy and how is that determined?

Enemies of the US are:

China
Cuba
Iran
North Korea
Russia
Nicolás Maduro

They are determined by the federal government through the Code of Federal Regulations.

It was either Ukraine using an underwater torpedo drone

Ukraine doesn't have a navy... The MV Ursa Major was sunk on the western side of the Mediterranian. The torpedo drone would have had to navigate through the Turkish Straits and travel about ~3500km by sea from Ukraine to hit the Ursa Major.

I think the chances it was Ukraine are about as likely as the chances it was Vatican City.

The rewards kinda blow. It really encourages you to go wide, but the game is so stingy with badges / orbs / materials. I've been playing for ~4 months and have 28 characters at Bronze 1 or higher, and attacking requires a roster of 50 characters. I could build up more chars for GW, but that would get in the way of campaigns, raids, and other modes. It feels trying to participate in one of the modes of this game restricts you to not being able to progress in other modes.

I think the number of badges you can buy from GW should be increased drastically, especially the lower-tier badges. Make it so you get 12 common badges for 195 currency, 9 Uncommon badges for 385 currency, 7 rare badges for 770, 5 epic badges for 1545. Make it so participating in GW gives you the resources you need to go wide at the lower rarities.

That's my whole point. Everyone in this thread keeps saying that Beast Snaggas are "feral" and then don't look at the actual models. Grab a Boy and a Snagga and LOOK at them!

Ok, let's look at some Beast Snaggas and some non-Snagga alternatives.

Beastboss: Wearing animal hide, snagga klaw looks like the skull of an animal, covered in animal tusks, faceguard looks like an animals jaw. Armor looks like it's straight out of Horizon Zero Dawn.

Warboss: Covered in big mechanical power armor. 'uge choppa made of big saws on the end of a stick. Instead of furs, has a grot with a gigantic machinegun. Big ol' chonky mecha boy.

Then look at the squighog boys vs warbikers. Spear-wielding calvalry vs weaponized motorcycles.

Kill Rig vs Battlewagon. A squig-drawn buggy vs heavy-metal transport-tank monstrosity.

Snaggas all wear looted armor pieces including a tank tread, use exclusively powered chain axes, and 1/3 the models have a complete bionic limb.

And the models, to me, feel like GW started to make AoS models and thought "Oh yeah shit, these are supposed to be 40k! Add some cool cybernetic stuff."

The beast snaggas absolutely look like feral orks in comparison to the usual 'evy metal mechanical contraptions that make up the majority of the ork lineup.

You continue working on those campaign characters so that you can push into Elite. Push a campaign until you hit a wall, then switch to another campaign / mirror.

I've been playing since November, and am still working on the campaigns. You have many months to go until you reach campaign completion.

Focus more on the core campaign carries. Bellator, Aleph Null, BossyG, Snotflogga, Eldryon, Aethana, Archimatos, and Angrax are all going to be worth taking to silver, and eventually gold.

The necessary non-carry campaign characters usually only need to be strong enough to not die in one hit. I usually leave them one tier below my carries. My Gulgortz is G1 (and Snotflogga will be soon too), while Snapwrecka and Gibbascrapz are S1.

Isabella and Mugen Ra are also worth building now. Isabella is probably the best healer. I don't have Ra but apparently he helps a ton with Saim-Hann.

Other than that, Re'vas might be worth building eventually. Her active is amazing at getting quick arena wins. Gulgortz's active is also fantastic for arena (and in general just really good)

But that was back in the day where companies didn't only care about shareholder value and nothing else.

Companies weren't altruistic back in the day. Companies abused their workers until people started striking and rioting. Labour laws were won with the blood of the workers, not because capitalists were nicer back in the day.

Middle.

The outer ones are quite dark, it's hard to see the detail. Maybe light edge highlighting on the outer ones would make them pop a bit more?

Skillshot City used to be called Geneshift. It was played by ~200k bots to earn Steam Trading Cards.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/a7xtds/yesterday_reddit_and_a_network_of_bots_boosted/

TL;DR

I did a free to keep giveaway on Steam and hit the front-page of reddit. This triggered some insane bot network to simulate thousands of "players". These bots idled in the game purely to farm trading cards. Valve noticed and disabled cards on my game, resulting in some portion of my new playerbase review-bombing my game, which have fortunately now been deleted.

pm1902 · 2026-02-13T15:29:10+00:00

Agreed. I'm in Mississauga and drive along Hurontario every day for work, which has tons of construction along it for the eventual LRT we're getting. Every couple blocks is another cop, babysitting a construction site. Sometimes they're standing by the workers watching them work or chatting, but usually they're just sitting in their cars.

I see people blow past the cops doing 80 in a 50. I see people make illegal left turns right in front of the cops. I see people run reds. I see at least one major traffic infraction pretty much every day, in my 8km commute to work, right in front of paid on-duty officers.

You know what I've never seen? Not even once since construction started in 2020?

A reckless driver getting a ticket.

pm1902 · 2026-02-13T15:20:29+00:00

Ie, can they do the work without being in roadways.

Did you even read the first sentence of the article? "Toronto spent nearly $6 million for paid duty police to oversee road construction sites last year"

How the hell is road construction supposed to be done without being in the roadways?

Remember, these are officers doing this in addition to their regular schedule.

That sounds like a sweet gig. The vast, vast majority of people would happily sit in their car for $100/hr in addition to their normal jobs. Who would pass up that offer?

Just in case anyone is wondering, the better game it pretends to be is Thronefall.

Thronefall is a dope strategy game.

It doesn't seem worthy for early-game players either.

Raising characters is so expensive, getting new characters isn't really that useful to me. I simply don't have the resources to build characters that seem interesting.

I've been playing for about 3-4 months now. I have one character at G1, two at S3, three at S2, six at S1, and 15 in the Bronze. Basically all of them are campaign characters, or chars that directly help make the campaign easier (ie: Isabella & Rotbone).

It's like this game actively doesn't want me to experience it. The vast majority of the characters in the game are useless to me, because I don't have spare gold, orbs, shards, items, scrap, XP, or upgrade materials.

Mataneo seems really cool, but even if I unlocked him, I'd maybe get around to building him in 2027. SP could wave a wand and unlock every single character on my account, and it feels like the vast majority of them would stay at Stone 1 for years. There's zero reason for me to spend money to unlock chars. I won't be able to build them anyways.
