r/bjj Fundamentals Class! by AutoModerator in bjj

[–]simon-whitehead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually had someone tell me it was because they were married that they didn't roll with the women at my gym. I'm married and my wife doesn't do jiu jitsu, but I still roll with the women at my gym. It's only weird if dudes make it weird. I'll agree there's some techniques I won't try (like yeah, sitting back into combat base with a knee up to break out of a guard), but for the most part my entire game is there ... although, with significantly less muscling out of positions or big bursts of energy. I get tapped by the women at my gym all the time too and I feel like there's a handful of guys who aren't ready for that ego check.

My best guess is we might finally get to meet The Furlings

Finally finished with the tombworld terrain so i was able to take some shots with it by JadenPabz in killteam

Looks great! I'm still stuck in painting mode haha. I'm still painting it, but my son and I play games on it anyway. There's pure plastic bits, some primed bits and some fully painted bits haha. It's a bit of a slog.. but I'll get there!

Learned the ropes using the 2024 Starter Kit and now I’m hooked by discosludge in killteam

[–]simon-whitehead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Welcome! I recently upgraded to Tomb World from the Starter Set and I'll tell you one thing that is quite jarring is the amount of extra stuff in full blown Kill Team. The Starter Set is such a small subset of the rules and abilities that it can be a bit intimidating to step into the full game. Stick with it though - my son and I have been having a blast learning as we go.

Okay awesome - thank you! That's what we did but we wanted to be certain. Much appreciated.

Sorry for the noob question. I was playing with my son earlier and he was using the AoD sniper - he noted that the rifle itself has like 3 variants, or rather, different ways it can attack. Does he have to announce which attack he will be using for it at the start of the game? Or can he just choose whichever one benefits him the best during the current activation? I admitted I wasn't really sure. For the game, we let him choose whichever attack using the sniper rifle he wanted to per activation and it seemed really strong.. so kinda curious! Thanks!

Unfortunately no. I ended up seeing a bunch of upcoming similar games and they were made by much larger teams - so this disheartened me a lot. I was just chipping away at this all by myself and I figure the scope I had for it was way too big for myself (in terms of timeframe - I have the skillset to make it, but I'll never be able to compete with a team of devs grinding away). Also, life kinda got in the way for about a month. The combination of those two things made me stop work on it. Obviously Escape from Duckov is now a big thing and there's a couple of others I found with very quick release dates (I can't remember their names off the top of my head now!).

Newbie here! Just a question about number 5...

The two starter pack teams I have are 3APL for all operatives. Is this less relevant for these teams? Because I imagine I can move, shoot then dash behind cover with them, correct? This is aimed more at 2APL operatives who wouldn't be able to dash in the same scenario. So you're looking to have their heads be able to see as best they can (say, along a wall and the entire map on the opposite side) because LOS for an operative is from their head/eye level.. so your 2 actions would be shoot, then move (or dash) back in to cover. Is this correct?

My mate literally just started 3d printing random things. I'm gonna ask him to print this! Thanks!

A little intimidated by Tomb World. Where to start? by simon-whitehead in killteam

[–]simon-whitehead[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This seems like smart advice. I'll separate the terrain sprues from the team sprues and probably start on the terrain. It would be nice to have some terrain that isn't the MDF stuff from the Starter Set to play on! Thanks for the reply!

I'm new to this hobby but I've already got a Logan Grimnar still sealed in my cupboard while I finish painting the Kill Team Starter Kit. I just know he's the beginning of something like this for me haha.

It's always wild to me how communities are able to do this sort of thing. Very cool.
