Unfortunately I don't got much to share at the moment aside from just doing lore and modeling my Zombie missions have the most work, with infection mechanics, breaking the ritual, extraction based missions, or if all goes to hell then it's stand the line or asset denial styled missions with unique scatter terrain like corpse piles, altars, or bodybags. I'm trying to get nice special infected zombies that don't look like nurgle demons, but it's not easy.

On the spectrum of rubber forehead aliens to complete starfish aliens that are made out of silica and breathe methane, where are YOU specificially comfortable with. Does there come a point where an alien becomes too weird for you to "relate" to in order to include them in your games as playable races?

Personally I am fond of aliens that look plausibly like they could have evolved in a different world and have no distinguishable lineage to earth life, even if they share some superficial features.

>>97240164
My preferred autism is that most aliens look recognizable to us, mostly distinctly not-eartlike but with the occasional feature that is so earthlike that it throws us (example: hulking, four-armed creatures with heads that look *exactly* like those of a frog) due to convergent evolution. Certain patterns are just successful for a reason, there's only so many ways that you can design an airplane and still have it fly, airplanes are the shape that they are because that's what works.

However, even for the aliens that LOOK similar to life from Earth, we have zero compatible habitable conditions. There is no neutral atmosphere in which both humans and any other alien can survive at the same time, one or both of us always needs to be wearing space suits or somebody is getting poisoned or suffocating.
>>
>>97241056
Well "impossible" would be the wrong word. You can of course do a low effort roleplay of a silicon based spider dinosaur by just playing it as a human with a bunch of special powers and restrictions. I think anyone that bothered to have this argument would agree that doesn't really count, though finding the distinction between that and doing it "properly" is hard.
>I don't really see a point
I understand but don't agree, though that will have to wait.
>>
>>97241119
Most scifi settings where aliens and humans regularly co-exist just ignore the issues of incompatible biospheres & atmospheres in general. Irl, if we were to ever find a world with carbon based alien life on it, that was earth like enough for us to inhabit, it is questionable if we could ever even eat any of the lifeforms on such a world given that our biology is adapted to processing stuff that evolved on earth.
>>
>>97241156
Worse than that, anon. If we ever go to another planet with a functioning ecosystem, it will probably NEVER be safe for us to be there even if their atmosphere was 100% earthlike.

The micobiome of an alien world is going to be something that our immune system is totally unprepared for. It will be operating on totally different mechanisms that our immune system might not even be capable of recognizing as a threat. The problem is that, unlike a computer virus, incompatible is not safe. A computer virus programmed to exploit a windows vulnerability will just bounce off of an Apple product because the vulnerability isn't there. The two pass each other like ships in the night.

But microbes? Even if our cells work nothing alike, we're still made out of the same chemicals and other raw materials. The fact that we are a warm, wet environment rich in nutrients will always mean that we are a fertile breeding ground for SOMETHING.
Either their evolutionary tree tears through us like wet paper, or our microbes escape into their environment and decimate the entire ecosystem. Its an ecological disaster either way.
>>
>>97240164
I'd say it depends on the setting. Something like star wars or star trek where aliens are a normal fact of life might as well make them essentially humanoid in psychology and core biology (don't need to have humanoid body structure, but still carbon based life who follow a generally human mindset instead of silicone aliens who breathe toxic gas and have a wholly alien mindset.

If humans are the core of the setting aliens should essentially be the scifi equivalent of fey. They can be silicone or gaseous, but both their biology and morality are wholly alien. They're less characters on an individual basis and more a plot device, less "Xl'mnd'dk the ship's pilot" and more "the strange alien village who cannot physically communicate with you and oops you offended them by saying um and now they're going to kill a crewman by infiltrating his body through his nostrils and dissolving his lungs."

I refuse to believe Halo Flashpoint is even a 10th as successful as Mantic claims. In terms of online, easy to find metrics it has:

3100 people as part of its sub(P)reddit.
2100 or so people as part of Facebook Groups.
No one discussing it on Twitter gets many likes/comments/retweets.
No one big or well known talks about/plays it on Youtube.

Yet it's one of the fastest growing and more popular tabletop games to come out recently?
I don't buy it.
I don't hate the system, but I am baffled by Mantic's ability to get away with lying about how successful this game is.

The second most common complaint about H:GC (after it not being in 28mm) was that the gameplay didn't resemble the videogames.

I also think making a tabletop game based on the multiplayer was stupid, but it was kinda what people wanted.

Thankfully I've managed to acquire almost all of the TROs in print over the years; the only ones I'm missing are 3145 and 3150. I really wish CGL would do another print run of those two (or set them up for Print-on-Demand from DTRPG); I would really like to have them without having to pay an arm and a dick.
Truthfully, TRO:3025 is probably still my favorite; the CE is great simply to have a copy of it that doesn't feel like it's going to fall apart. Having used 3039/3050U/PP as my main source of info for a long time, though, I forgot just how much info wwas added to the 'Mech entries over the years compared to the original 3025/3050.

I've just straight up stopped going to a shop I was super active at and running games for a solid group of retirees who needed me because this one weird battletech dude kept hanging around trying to find a game and then after weeks I gave him one and he was being weird as fuck while i taught him stuff and refused to like actually learn and was just angleshooting, so goodbye shop at that point.

Rather than trying to force you off the deck I'll engage with the list at hand to let you play it.
I don't entirely understand why you have so many extenders, is it just for underworld goddess in case you see a towers? Why not just play kaijus main.
I'd keep droplet, LSs (move raigeki/HFD to a LS), and the handtraps but the other going 2nd cards seem extra and suited as sideboard cards. Like you dont know if superpoly is going to work so it's better off being sided in over removal for games 2 and 3.
ED is mostly superfluous removal options so no notes there.
I know you want to send their S/Ts but I think trying to "bury the bricks" with so many discard outlet cards is maybe a bit too risky.
If you do want to commit to that though, maybe conaider cynet mining as an outlet and extender for link material.

>>97240947
Play the most dogwater shit deck imaginable. Your opponent gets to beat you into a pulp regardless of what they play and you get to feel an unwarranted sense of self-assured smugness that you're unique and creative in between bouts of seething about your opponent being a metasheep (actually playing a tiered deck is optional).
This is the optimal way to enjoy yugioh.
>>
>>97240947
Depends on your opponent. If your opponent is a meta andy then you'd either want to be running a meta deck or something that has a good enough matchup against their deck to check it, but not dominate it.

If your opponent's on a dogwater deck, you run a dogwater deck.

▶What is Kingdom Death?
Kingdom Death is a tabletop miniature brand stared by Adam Poots and operated by himself and his Team that later spun off into a miniature based bored game funded by two very successful Kickstarter campaigns.

▶What is Kingdom Death: Monster?
Monster is a Nightmare Horror cooperative boss battler/miniature hobby game for 1-4 players about hope in a strange world of bizarre monstrosities and perpetually darkness. Players take on the role of survivors that band together to form a settlement, fighting monsters, crafting weapons and gear, and developing their civilization to ensure survival from generation to generation.

Prologue Narration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNLc8dHv0Ac

The Game is broken up into 3 phases:
1. During your Hunt Phase your band of survivors traverse the world of KD in pursuit of their quarry.
2. After successfully tracking your quarry you will begin the Showdown Phase, where you must fell these horrific creatures in order to acquire precious resources.
3. After the battle, your survivors wander home with loot in hand to begin the Settlement Phase. Arm yourself by developing new weapons and bizarre structures to prepare for next year's hunt.
