>>97232198What is an actually overpriced game, for you?
I refuse to overpay for a game to get 'comforts' . Its getting ridiculous and chip theory and kickstarter games are now like the car industry where people are willing to pay double what something is worth for the prestige. I hate it. It already is fucking over wargame prices. Paper map and cardboard chits and their prices are spiking like crazy because the makers are starting to lean on the 'well we are kinda limited you know heehee' as if it isn't them just hedging by short printingSo no, I dont want to pay a ton of extra money for a stupid neoprene mousepad with circles for my little gnome men, I want games to be affordable and accessible again, not like every other industry

>>97232041What they actually should have done is gone direct to consumer entirely, and abandoned any pretense of LGS support. Print to preorder, 2 waves per year, and if you miss out on a set you will forever miss out.Just go full kitchen-table sekrit club.
Just remember, the sorcery guys never post actual images from games, they dont every actually talk about playing. There will be one response to this being contrarian with a made up batrep but then itll go back to normal. I'm here everyday, it's like clockwork.At least fabguy is posting tourney result screencaps!>>97232041That's not the model, they actively prey on the exclusivity and try to keep their costs down. It wouldn't be worth the cost of artists and printing when they know they can keep being luxurybait for people who want to feel superious to other tcg collectors. That's the whole marketing, it isnt obscure>>97231729Sorry I'm typing as fast as possible on my computer so that I can participate in as many threads as possible in between doing X so much (inset whatever void you cant fill here)>>97232256For what its worth they dont really support lgs much, so you arent really far off just from speaking with my industry connections. It's a TCG because that's the more profitable model, nothing more to it
>>97232301I enjoy the aesthetic of scarcity that TCGs provide. It's not strictly predatory.Playing at home with friends and imperfect card access has always been the most fun way to play.

>>97190377 Maybe you could fashion a tool out of a paperclip. Chisel end it or wrap it with a little bit of fine sandpaper. Secure the sandpaper with a rubberband or super glue, secure the paperclip with a hobby knife handle if you have the right socket for it (a set if sockets are handy so you can fix a variety of tools to it)
>>97210457 I'm a little new to FDM, coming from MSLA, but there are some things you can tweak. If you're using Orca Slicer, under the Quality tab, try reducing the Slice Gap Closing Radius and the Resolution values. Some things still won't print for me though, and I think I need to change the extrusion width --I'm also running .4mm so that probably doesn't help
>>97231460Had a look, couldn't find anything.
Brand new to this whole thing but I have myself >ELEGOO Resin 3D Printer Mars 2 Pro MonoFor a starting. I hope I didn't make a mistake with it? All brand new and what not.
>>97232281Get a couple of silicon pads, preferably with raised sides. Put the printer on one, do processing on the other, including cleaning. If you run one of those wash units, maybe a third for that, but I wash by hand so can only guess. Aside from that, I put a thin film of ptfe oil on surfaces around the printer unit to help protect it some from spills and splashes. Just wipe on and wipe off, so there's a barely perceptible film on the surface. If you need to tape the edges of the screen, do that before though. Stuff won't stick well to surfaces once the ptfe oil is applied. Mars 2 is a little dated but can be a decent printer. Has a mono LCD and collimated light. If I remember right, the collimation lenses sometimes had some offset problems. A lot of printer designs moved from an array of lenses to a fresnel I think.

>>97229991>A war that was stretching resources and the public’s trust in the Jedi while building Palpatine’s social and technical powerbase, what in that wasn’t conveyed between the prequel films?The scale of the conflict, who Grievous was, what the actual fuck happened to Anakin, and I'm sure I could think of a few things more if I actually re-watched 2 and 3.The poiint is, the PT as a whole is wonderfully compact, but it wasted a huge amount of time on irrelevant fluff.

I would like to run a Rifts game. I created a shoddy system for Foundry to play Palladium Fantasy, but the core book was so badly written that I would not want to touch coding Rifts with a 10' pole. Are there any ways other than taking the SW pill to play rifts online?
>>97231440Not that I know of. There's an Excel character generator for sale on the Palladium Books website but I don't know of any automatic systems. Savage Rifts is much better supported in that regard.

>>97231623>judge's jobTrue, but does you LGS just have judges chilling during the day in case of chimp outs? Mine only gets them for large-scale tournaments. My locals are usually very civilised and people sort stuff out between themselves. These dudes weren't known to me.
>>97228810What deck are you using, anon? Edison has some meta decks that have plays, cards and interactions that gatekeeps the more rogue strategies.

Why is it that so many fantasy writers make their evil cults unjoinable by anyone with a functioning brain cell? Like why would you worship Orcus, whose goal is omnicide? Why would you worship Tzeentch if he’s probably gonna screw YOU over as part of his grand plan?What makes it so bizarre to me is that, firstly, it’s not like they need to be so off-putting to be evil. Orcus is a demon of undeath, his followers want to turn their enemies into the undead. Tzeentch wants the world to be in a constant cycle of chaos, his followers are gonna be masterminding world wars.Secondly, it’s not like we don’t have plenty of examples of real-world evil cults. A lot of cults in the West don’t follow Super-Duper-Mega-Murder Satan, but are fucked-up offshoots of Christianity. Historically, goetia was practiced by people who would’ve still called themselves Christians, while committing rituals to summon and get boons from demons. Plenty of human cultures used to sacrifice humans to their gods, not to summon them to kill everyone or some shit, but to honor and/or appease them.Like to use another example from Warhammer, I think Nurgle and Khorne present more “approachable” evil cults. Nurgle is toxic positivity, and his love will take all the pain away. Khorne is wrapped up in enough language about honor to lure people in.Like to rework an evil deity, let’s pick Lamashtu. Instead of “We love ugliness and miscarriages and also you get to die in childbirth”, the cult targets vulnerable young women and lures them in with divine feminine language (“You have the power to bear and raise great beasts”), while promising the young men of monstrous races frustrated living among humans that what they’re scorned for is what makes them powerful (and also they get to have sex with pretty girls).
>>97207451>Reasonable Cultists>worship Chaos Undivided as the heart of mankind's virtue>worship Khorne as a god of honor and justice>worship Slaanesh as a god of love and beauty>worship Nurgle as a god of life and empathy>worship Tzeentch as a god of hope and creativity>manage to summon daemons aligned with those aspects of the gods>Imperium comes to purge their homeworld, is confronted with Bloodthirsters laying their lives down to protect the helpless, Daemonettes inspiring men to fight for their families, Plaguebearers delivering emergency medical aid, and Horrors keeping everyone's morale up>Exterminatus is called>this is worse than a normal demon incursion by far

>>97231584To be fair, reasonability is genuinely a dangerous thing in 40k, given the sheer number of existential threats in the setting. Unfortunately, being unreasonable also feeds into some of those threats. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Christmas edition▶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=FNLc8dHv0AcThe 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.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>97232125>failed 3 campaigns>hasn't won oneAnon... I mean maybe it's just bad luck, or maybe you aren't metagaming Survival of the Fittest enough, but... you really shouldn't be losing that much.My group has done 4 campaigns with no losses. I've never actually seen a settlement go down, and it's usually not even close, by the end we're always steamrolling so hard the GSK goes down in 2-3 rounds. The worst campaign we did of the 4 was the one time we chose Protect the Young, SotF really is easy mode if you abuse the rerolls and plan for intimacy, but even that campaign was still pretty easy.Haven't been able to play since GC came out sadly so I can't comment on the new stuff, hopefully that's quite a bit harder, but all I can say is remember your SotF rerolls, and remember that in settlement phase any survivor can provide a reroll for any roll, skew the population female, use unnamed female survivors' rerolls first, and it's okay for unnamed female survivors whose reroll has been spent to die in childbirth. With that and intimacy bonuses like you get from Face Painting you can make intimacy net positive on rerolls and get tons of them to help save you from bullshit rolls in settlement phase.

>In the game Werewolf: The Apocalypse, the Garou (werewolves) were made to defend the earth from the cosmic forces that threaten to tear it apart. The Garou fight against the Wyrm, the destroyer. It is a struggle against nearly insurmountable odds, especially considering the rivalry between many tribes. These rivalries make it almost impossible for the werewolves to present a unified front against a cosmic force that pervades reality.>From this morass of hatred and mutual betrayal, there is little hope that the Garou can emerge triumphant against a foe so well armed as the Wyrm. The Wyrm promises money, power, sex, and whatever else the heart desires to its followers while the Garou receive no reward for their striving. It drives them deeper and deeper into despair, or into betrayal so deep that they choose to serve the Wyrm instead.Main Rulebooks:>Werewolf: The Apocalypse Rulebookhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_Rulebook>Werewolf: The Apocalypse Second Editionhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_Second_Edition>Werewolf: The Apocalypse Revised Editionhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_Revised_Edition>Werewolf: The Apocalypse 20th Anniversary Editionhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_20th_Anniversary_Edition>Werewolf: The Apocalypse 5th Edition Corebookhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_5th_Edition_CorebookComment too long.
