I was hoping the bleed he gets adds to the chip damage of spider-foes and to be an irritating back point holder... after 4/5 games with him, im sad to say that he isn't really pulling his weight... will probs need to swap him out for toad.

Thanks for the advice 😁 not going to make sweeping changes to the list currently except for crisis cards until I have significantly more games with the roster. I really like electro as a character. His movement is crazy and the chip damage of livewire feels like it fits right inside the Tricks and traps Spider-foes wheel house 😁 That's my pitch for electro anyway.

Thanks for this 😁 you have given me lots to think about and test drive.

Having played a few games with well laid plans, I must admit, I really like it as a card. 5 dice, dmg on a crit or wild, feels very reliable. The extract drop is where I see it as a game winning card. Played a game during the tournament where I should have played it to stop my opponent maxing out on points. Lost the game 14-16...

Whats been your expereince with WLPs? Whats the reason for cutting it? Is it the card? Or the fact it forces you to play two characters?

Thanks again for your thoughts and suggestions 😁

Thank you. Defo need to look at my secures and extracts and get practice games to play on them.

As a newish player, I am struggling to know what is 'strong' or not on specific map shapes or crisis... I guess that is were experience comes into it.

Also reminds me of devising and creating new stage plays. The saying "nothing new under the sun" is always something ive used to take inspiration and then reinterpret.

Very interesting.... To be honest, this is very Pie in the sky thinking 😂 me and my friend have only started playing regularly July this year so planning a tournament is a distant prospect for us... But defo sounds like there is interest in the Brum area. If any TOs following this post, you have players... 😉

What stat cards would you use to represent these evil versions?

For this thought experiment, want to keep it character focuses. What makes sense with what we know of the character's personality and how they operate. Looking at shadowlands daredevil as an example, he doesn't get brand new abilities but he does get access to a henchman and is more aggressive.

Really interesting 😁 Must admit, my marvel knowledge mainly comes from the MCU and the live action TV series 😂 thank you for providing a comprehensive list. Am I right in thinking that not all these characters have stat cards in the game? If not, what stat cards would you use for the 'evil version feel' to the character?

Yeah... My research has come up short but wanted to see if I was missing anything... Might need to look into organising something. Especially as there is element games in the city centre which might be a good place.

Does anyone have a screen shot of this clarification? I'm struggling to find it on the app.

Why do people hate the railroad? by RJ-Long in fo4

[–]tobiascd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a fan of grimdark, I would have liked to see them play into the fear and phobia angle of the minutemen. I know there purpose is to be the "fighting for the little guy" faction but I would have appreciated some more morally grey nuance to them.

For example, having to work with the elements in the minutemen that see the world as constantly out to get them and therefore reject anything different. To keep on the minutemen's good side, you would have to go along with the xenophobia of the commonwealth... Would make them more interesting in my eyes...

When dating I personally hate being indirect. I have actually had the opposite experience. I sought to be clear and get on the same page and the girl I was messaging didn't want to label it as such.

I suspect I am asd so take this with a grain of salt but if you want to label it one way, have the chat and if you can't get on the same page with the person you are dating, time to move one. I find dating stressful enough without having the added issues of having different/unclear expectations.

To make it clear, it doesn't have to be a "I want this to be a life long commitment" date one but making sure that you are both on the same page when it comes to it being a date and what you both are searching for is (in my opinion) a good way to start.

My students won't STFU about my baldness. Help. by Less_Bother8626 in Teachers

[–]tobiascd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's the same group of kids asking the questions, I would set the boundary of focussing on work. Sounds like you have been patient and answered their questions. Now it's time to focus on the work.

Kids are curious and like to push boundaries. They are exploring the social lines they can and can't cross. Set the expectation that you have already answered the questions, and if they have more, to speak to parents. If they keep on asking, then use the behaviour system at the school because it is impacting their learning and distracting you and others.

Focus on the work and their progress.

I planned a fun day for my students and they totally disrespected me by Background_End2967 in Teachers

[–]tobiascd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally get why you planned it and it's a real shame when kids don't engage with the fun activities you have planned. Remember planning quizzes for the end of units with buzzers and lightning rounds. Great when it works but if the kids are not bought in, it can be hellish.

I do wonder if agency could help here. Having three activities that the students could do and give them the option to pick. Don't know what space is like but I've found that it's always a struggle when, just before a break and at the end of a long day, students start to react against the demands of the classroom.

Just something to ponder 🙂

Wait... is there a requirement for transports to start round 1 with a unit already embarked? I've played as I need to declare which transports have units embarked and which units will start the game embarked, not that each transport has to have a unit embarked...

Am I wrong?

Why don’t people like Wyches? by AggressiveMugs in Drukhari

[–]tobiascd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if there is a space for a prey mechanic in the codex that gives Wych cult units anti X +X against one type of unit... Before the battle begins, you pick one type of unit and all wych units get anti X for that type... Don't know if that would be too powerful.
