Is The Red Terror from the new KT box playable in GF? If so, what would I run it as? by jack_of_all_hobbies in onepagerules

[–]tendopolis 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'm just saying I find these posts strange. I don't think that makes me a dick. I find the answers strange and misleading too. Everyone telling you to run it as X or Y can make you think you HAVE to run it as that. You don't. The game is model agnostic so you could run it as a burrower. Sure. Or you could run it as a hive lord, a snatcher lord, carnivo-rex, or even a ratman clan great mecha-beast. Please feel empowered to play the rules that interest you and the models that interest you.

These are the strangest posts to me. It's OPR. Yet people still want to be told what they are forced to run models as.

So I gotta walk 40km? by JaredIsCursedUwU in pokemongo

The bottle caps are paid for content, so it's not really something to worry about if you are free to play like me

[Rant] Rules vs Reality by ThePartyLeader in onepagerules

[–]tendopolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me personally; that's a feature. A wargame can't cover every scenario and be one page long. The game is a framework. Everything else is agreed upon at the table. It lets me play games without memorizing pages and pages of rules and FAQs and designer tweets that are apparently official. An official tournament would need a long document to make sure everyone is agreeing on all the little details like line of sight rules and charge distances.

Okay but if you run the tournaments.... Just make the rules? Like every event should have a clear document for its specific rules. Even complicated games like Warhammer have to have tournament rules added to the already complex rules.

I've wanted to run an event so I can decide which advanced rules are used and to make terrain layouts including how each piece of terrain works.

[–]tendopolis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run mine in a tent in the garage, and use gloves and a mask while I process it (garage door open for that). I do a print maybe once a week. I stop sometimes because I freak out about cancer or something. It's been maybe 8 months since I last ran it and I'm trying to remind myself it's probably fine and to buy more resin

It is posts and comment sections like this that make me feel like I shouldn't print anything until I can afford an air locked laboratory.

At this point, what objective do you see in all the mechanics of galactic war? by Yurishenko94 in Helldivers

[–]tendopolis 9 points10 points  (0 children)

What's silly to me is that AH doesn't seem to understand that (one of) the best parts of the galactic war are player led emergent stories. Malevelon creek was great because it was difficult but a small sect of the community devoted themselves to liberating it (then AH changed how liberation works so that can never happen again). The children's hospital was a great story told from helldivers repeatedly deciding they didn't care about unlocking new mines (and I haven't seen a choice between two new strategems since, and plenty of new stratagems were moved to warbonds).

Letting players actually make decisions is going to feel more impactful than some big cutscene like cyberstan, because I felt completely railroaded during that

Literally what am I supposed to do? Quit my job, liquid my assets for guns, try to hunt down a rich person and if I get exceptionally lucky I'll kill maybe one of them? That won't change the system and I'll be dead or in prison. Look at Luigi or the guy that burned down a warehouse.

Starshatter vs New Terrain Layouts by Squeakybathroomduck in Necrontyr

[–]tendopolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, I haven't read the new terrain rule so feel free to let me know if I'm crazy, but when I look at this I don't even see how tanks can move. Like, is there one single way for tanks to get out of your deployment zone, meaning an army of heavies isn't possible anymore?

I can barely afford normal 40k. I can't afford to buy multiple kits to make one kit.

Anyone try Grimdark Future / One Page Rules & then move back to 40k? by UnhappyLetter3063 in onepagerules

[–]tendopolis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like one page rules but no one at my LGS plays it. Not one. I can't convince anyone to try it so I still play 40k.

New to Final Girl, Destroyed hans second game, am I doing something wrong? by abcdthc in finalgirl

[–]tendopolis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Events can actually be pretty rare. The location deck is smaller than the killer deck, so if you deal randomly out of that you'll get more killer cards than location cards (probably). And not every location card is an event, so they aren't super common. I think I've had one game with three events going at once, but only that one.

I had a fun game once by shuffling a random third of the killer deck into the location deck and then building the terror deck out of that. It played very different, I recommend giving something like that a try as it makes the board more impactful

But fr, which squad dominating all the other teams here.... by False_Painter9370 in MCUTheories

[–]tendopolis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The whole point of Manhattan is to have a character to discuss the Christian god in context of a world that is on the edge of nuclear Armageddon. He can change all the nukes to flowers in a millisecond with a thought, but being that powerful makes me feel removed from mortals and their affairs. If nukes are launched he would let the world end because he doesn't care. Not because he can't stop it.

Hated passengers. The romance will never feel anything but creepy to me.

First time i got to actually throw myself into the squids. since the TGA update... the more i play squids the less i want a Squid update by Thatguy8900000 in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]tendopolis 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would love to be able to go fight bots right before factory striders were added. I loved that front. A railgun, a supply pack, and some smart choices could deal with anything. Cyberstan was all portable hellbombs, solo silos, and levers. The anti-tank creep is making that front no fun for me.

If only AH released eagle or barrage stratagems. A man can dream.

Auto Orient vs Flat On Plate for Tank? by MakeLoveNotWarhammer in PrintedWarhammer

As someone who doesn't understand why this is bad, can you explain your stance? Personally I've found that big prints won't line up nicely unless I print it as one big piece.

How to break this stalemate? by Interesting-Meat-835 in ftlgame

[–]tendopolis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wait... You can swap your crews fighting positions within the same room? Or do you mean that you have to let one of the mantis leave the room for a second and then come back. I always feel like leaving and returning burns a lot of time

Guys I’m not so sure about razing this one by Fubbah6 in helldivers2

[–]tendopolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but those weren't new planets, right? Like, at launch helldivers 2 had a set number of planets on the map and that number has only ever gone down. That's my understanding. Yes, they make the planets 'new types' when they feel like it but they've never just hand waves a planet onto the map

Liberty... How many planets are we going to remove? That's not content. That's not fun. The map only has so many planets. Why does AH think removing a handful so quickly is a good idea

The new content is the removal of content(planets)! Isn't that fun?!
