>>86200282>they have a lot of overlap between their paint ranges.I can see them downsizing for that reason but I doubt it would be a bright idea to downsize in a way that eliminates the direct equivalents to old Citadel/Current citadel paints. Here's hoping the Euro-anons here can provide feedback on paints that are known to be more difficult to work with like yellow, orange, white, and sometimes red. Especially when they get to have the products a month in advance for us unfortunate North Americans.

Unfortunately, it makes some of the later FFs feel somewhat barren of collectables.Shame there wasn't a flail among the 12 legendary weapons.

>>86202120>he doesn't comprehend
>>86200541There's plenty of us who just don't post pics often or at all.
>>86201939its about as worth it as lascannons used to be in tac squads back in 3E. pricey, but when you need to crach armor you need to crack armor. unfortunately the votann dont have a lot of great heavy weapon platforms. sagitaurs pack decent guns but they're squishy as all hell at 130 for a 9 wound buggy. the land fortress is good but at 300 you really cant spam it. pioneers can cover light armor like some light skimmers but struggle against anything with a decent save and AoC since most of their shots are ap-1 autocannons. hearthguard are short range and swingy, either relying on a low number of shots or lucky mortals on 6s to hit, berserks will never make it into combat unless your opponent lets them, they're slow, made of paper, and have no good transport options. thunderkyn have....okay weapons, they're really better at killing MEQ than tanks, and frankly all 3 heavy units, the thunderkyn, hearthguard, and berserks are now so expensive its going to be hard to justify them over just taking more hearthkyn other than filling rule of cool slots. hearthkin are just a great swiss army knife unit that can kit out for anti horde, anti MEQ, anti armor, anything you need.so short answer, yes.

>>86199748Cool, what about the frigates? Toulons?
>>86200176Probably but its less clear. You absolutely need the 2 NOrleans to play the game but you can't do much with the remaining 2 hulls. Both Taipei and Toulon want to be run in squads of 3+ and the others are redundant in small games.Frankly, UCM Frigates are not great and tend to be replaced by Destroyers in serious lists. 3 Toulon are worth building for the Command Card but otherwise I wouldn't expect to keep them. Max out your NO builds, take a couple Lima, and dump the rest into Taipei. You'll be leaning on Kyiv and Havana in bigger games.
>>86200655Awesome, thanks. I'm thinking about picking up the new 2p set, and maybe a battleship/battlecruiser and the UCM starter fleet.

Who else loves the psychic class in games? Not in DnD of course, magic and psionics do not mix. But in space, cyberpunk or modern settings they are a nice substitution to wizards.
Yeah I like them in modern-ish or futuristic settings. We should be pals.
Magic and Psionics can very easily differentiated. Usually with magic you need to do extra shit like chant, a focus like staff or wand, preparation if it's vancian etc. And/or a spell can only do a specific thing. But with psionics usually it doesn't require any of that. You just think or move your hand and you can do whatever your specific psychic power is.
>>86184272A wizard is a natural philosopher in a world where magic exists. It is a specialty, a thing you work towards being and being better at.Psionic powers are a symptom of exposure to the Far Realm. Nobody deliberately sets about becoming a psychic and even the most nihilistic maniacs rarely willingly try to hone their abilities.
>>86188154Thank you anon. Shadowrun takes a cool cyberpunk setting and shits all over it with knife-ears and scalefuckers
>>86184272>>Never understood the reasoning behind separating a wizard and an artificer, cleric, druid, sorcerer, warlock, etc when the differences between them are minimal and functionally they serve the same purpose.The only reason DND has psionics that are essentially the same, is that later versions blurred the lines to make them more acceptable. No one ever complains about the division between arcane and divine magic, when the only functional difference is source, but toss in psionics and people bitch.

>>86196554If it's any security bubble, anything within 1800 feet is getting boomgun'd
>>86200751Town's defensive radars trigger. All the glitterbros set aside their differences for a moment, saddle up, and stroll into town square. Thunderous boomgunning from 25 boomguns at any threat entering in range. Townspeople applaud with bleeding ears from their shattered windows. I like it!
>>86201000>>86200751This is how I kinda picture it. It's a city with a lot of corn/crops, but not much else, & a bunch of Glitterboys which makes it hard to take. I imagine it's on everyone's list to take over, but has had the fortune to be just enough of a hard nut to crack that no one has committed the resources yet & focuses on politicking the Houses instead. I also picture the Houses ranging pretty far for work too. Like. The House who gained a GB7 got it while doing merc work in South America.>>86197787No I get it. Im just trying to have my cake & eat it too. What if I moved the city to Sandusky, right on the lake, & made them loyal to Lazlo? Would that be enough to make it plausible?Give me a bit to get my notes & I will share my guys. You guys can vote you needs to be saved & who should be cut. I may not cut anyone though, cause to me they are all cool & serve a purpose.
>>86201257>made them loyal to Lazlo?>made them loyal to Lazlo?Stay indy, don't give loyalty easily especially to Lazlo of all places.
>>86201257>You guys can vote you needs to be saved & who should be cutThink about combining some of the houses together, rather than just trashing them. There could be just as much political machinations within a house as their is between the houses. After all, everyone wants to inherit the patriarch’s Glitter Boy, but only one person can.
Moral quandaries do not belong into interactive games because the only thing they exist for is for the GM to prove himself right at the expense of the player's enjoyment.

Remember that spinning wheel edition of Candy Land?
>>86177082>>86179300Is there really only one randomization?You are equally unlikely to know where a fair spin will land any given turn as you are to know what card you will draw every turn. So the randomization in terms of human knowledge is satisfied. At the same time, there is no way to determine or change what order the cards will be in before you've even shuffled them up, just as you cannot with the spinner. Oh, maybe you can choose to flick the spinner one way, or flick it another, based on what you think that might do. But if you are flicking it hard enough that you're not aiming for a particular section, is that any different from drawing a card? Do you have any choice in the matter? Is the only choice that matters the choice to open the Candyland box in the first place? Or when you decided to play a board game at all? Or when you decided to go to your friend's house? If some choices matter and some don't, what's so special about choices? On the other hand, why worry about what matters when you can still enjoy the game? It's Candyland all the way down. The spinner is just one level of abstraction. I imagine Mersault would have preferred the version with cards, whereas the priest would prefer the spinner.
