>>97237435>>97237486So it's a durkon situation. Will durkon intervene on Nale's behalf on the next page?
>>97237435>>97237850I don't think this is as bad a position for Nale as you're making it out to be. He knows he can't take Xykon on his own, but he also knows that the Order's odds on their own are poor as well (not to mention that they can't afford to waste resources on fighting him, and that's without even knowing about the dragon they just wasted resources killing). The Order also has no reason to assume that his goals deviate from their own, even if he himself is obviously untrustworthy. If Nale frames it right he might be able to get them to agree to something seemingly harmless that ultimately benefits him.This could also just escalate into Haley and Roy attacking before Nale can present his case and Nale retreating to rethink his strategy (assuming he isn't intentionally putting the Order on edge as part of some greater plan, who knows) I guess.
>>97237486>Nale's goal is to break the last gatethat's the task he was given, but whether he actually plans to do it for the guys who barged in and threatened him is still unknown
Merry Christmas Elan, your present is your dead brother.
>>97238221Team OotS already know that Sabine is working with the Directors, and their fuckery with Elf's soul directly contributed to the destruction of a gate. It doesn't take many braincells to rub together to figure out that an infernally empowered Nale and Sabine showing up out of the blue probably has something to do with the Directors and their unknown-to-the-team schemes, and these schemes do not align with team Good(ish). When you throw in the fact that Nale is probably going to give away a lot more than he should in the next few strips because he is Nale and can't go 10 seconds without running his mouth, this move is not the best one for accomplishing the goal of blowing up the gate.That said, if I give an ounce of credit to both Nale and Rich:1. This approach might not be the brightest, but it is the sort of narcissistic and questionably thought out plan that Nale has a history of preferring. Not quite as complicated as usual, but close enough to his MO that it feels in character even if it is kinda dumb.2. One of the first things Nale asked to the Directors was whether he would be punished for failure. His overriding concern may be surviving, not winning, and so long as he puts up a good show he may well not care if the Order gets tipped off and does something clever to shut down his inevitable betrayal so long as he survives afterwards.3. If Nale is intending to betray the Directors, then this approach is actually a really good way of fucking over team Infernal without giving away his intentions.tl;dr Yes this move is bad for winning, but it a very Nale style bad way of winning, and Nale may not care or even intend that this is the case.

I feel like this edition has alot of objectively bad things about it and is absolutely where the alot of worst qualities of current editions showed up. But I feel like I prefer playing this edition compared to a lot of previous editions and 10th edition. Its a weird transitional period where there's still a lot of the old units that haven't been legended yet while still having the fucking Primaris lot. Its strange but I don't feel like I'm missing out on much staying on this edition and playing with friends casually instead of going back to playing the current edition.
>>97231537Literally every edition before 8th had less bullshit to memorize
>>97234943Even the absolute mess that was 7th, it was pretty modular and you could ignore most of it.And still you didn't get surprised outside of what a unit already had in their unit description.
>>97226259I would be down to have a gander at this
>>971861088th wasn't the best but it was the last edition worth playing. The accompanying edition of Kill Team that used a lot of its core rules and datasheets was nice for the sake of homebrew and modularity as well.
>>97223256That's why I said dial back the bullshit.

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.

>>97236626Bungiefags will buy virtually anything even if they never intend to play it. The fact that they only reached the breaking point on Destiny's bullshit THIS YEAR, after a decade of "vaultings" of $100 DLC, is actually insane.
>>97236626I probably would have picked it up if it hadn't been based on the vidya pvp model from day 1. Spartan vs Spartan tdm is lame for a wargame.
>>97237885The 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.

>>97180873Well, after Kerk the warrior made it out of the dungeon, he hoofed it to the nearest town (A couple days away.) While he was there, he gathered some equipment and sought out other adventurers to take with him, (Safety in numbers, and all that.)However, as he was looking for other likeminded people to adventure with, he instead found a merchant who'd been assaulted on the road. The merchant explained that he was attacked by goblins on the eastern road, and that his business partner was taken by the little green men. If I can recover his business partner (Or his corpse,) then I will be rewarded a couple hundred gold. I was going to purchase a suit of platemail, but shamefully platemail is really expensive in this town. (Go figure, I'm in the middle of nowhere.)I marched down to the goblin's hideout, but right outside they're using a nest of giant rats as a sort of defense. I actually thought I died to the giant rats because of how I rolled, but then I forgot that when you kill half of an enemy's units that you need to roll for morale. Luckily they ran away after I killed several of them, because otherwise Kerk would be dead... He hobbled back to town and told the merchant, "Look, I'll go back and see if I can find your buddy, but I need more equipment, more help, and a couple days to recover..."
>>97237792Aaaaand he just died to a goblin chieftan. I managed to kill the rest of the goblins in that hideout, but the chieftain was the last foe, and he managed to deal just enough damage to down Kerk.

>>97238392If you look at the Mechanicus battleship's prow more closely you can see the little irregularities in the triangular chevrons on the red armor plate, the holes in the top of the quarter armor, and the arches on the armor, not to mention things like the panel lines on the sail behind the bridge. Battelfleet Gothic stuff was shockingly simply-sculpted. The line is almost entirely built up out of plastic strips, punched circles, and tubing. GW even did some features in White Dwarf about the sculpting process. I'll have to see if I still have the archive I put together on this computer.

>>97232838>TQBLack. Why? Cos it's color pie is "Pay life: do anything"
To preface, I'm an MTG veteran. My first Precon was Coven Counters in 2021 and I've been an EDH player ever since.After years of playing, I think the WUBRG elemental may just do me in. Gimmick synergy, tribal, a real throw in anything somewhat related type of commander potential. It also has the most forced WUBRG ability to date: being able to pay WUBRG in order to keep an Elemental you Evoked is utter bullshit. It completely defeats the purpose of Evoke and is just a continuation of "drop a set, put whatever you want under 1 commander."I hate it, you hate it, and it's just a slap in the face of previous WUBRG Legendaries that tried to be something more than tribal or gimmick synergy, or just cram some WUBRG ability in last second, such as [[Atogatog]] [[General Tazri]] [[Golos, Tireless Pilgrim]] [[Jodah, the Unifier]] [[Jenson Carthalion, Druid Exile]] [[Morophon, the Boundless]] [[Najeela, Blade Blossom]] and [[Ramos, Dragon Engine]] . And I'm missing a shitton of other WUBRG Legendaries that could be Commanders.But let's look at the new WUBRG Legendaries that could be Commanders (hint: they're all tribal, gimmick synergy, or cram in a WUBRG ability last second): [[Avatar Aang]] [[Cosmic Spider-Man]] [[Hei Bai, Forest Guardian]] [[Heroes in a Half Shell]] and [[Infinite Guideline Station]] .As long as WotC keeps dropping cards like [[Horde of Notions]] , MTG will die very soon and for real this time.

Hey guys i was looking at myself in the mirror last night and i think i saw a wolf-like shape behind my refelection. Do anyone knows what that
>>97236845Son of a bitch, there goes another one. And on Christmas, too. Shame.
A year ago I was still your goth girl next door flipping off every man, woman and child dressed as Santa on my way to the club. It's Christmas and I ain't merry. Boyfriend on high alert, women out there squeezing the simps' bank accounts dry, the mansion became this Tim Burton movie with dolls in dresses patrolling like toy soldiers.I finally got the date with the smoking fetishist.Boring black BMW. Prehistoric frock coat. Fuck his Cologne and whoever sells it, it'd get any woman to smoke herself to death. To quote my boyfriend, it got worse.Four fucking hours of smirking, scoffing, sneering, blowing smoke in this gen Xer kine's dumb face, dumping ash on him down every corner of NYC. Having the color of my hair and eyes, and my cold, pale skin praised, my black furs smelled... This shit is tame. Tame by ex-Sabbat blood doll standards. Tame by my standards. Uncreative.We got to his place where I had him lick ash off my shoe, made him thrust his cock into grey donut-shaped clouds, burned him with my cigs. Still tame, but better. Got my ashtray really turned on. In the end I masturbated while smoking on his bed and looking away from him as he jerked off on his knees.As soon as he came, the guy wanted to schedule another night right away, and unholy fucking shit how bad did I desire to pull an Assoluta, and reject him to raise the stakes, but he paid extras on top of extras I ain't even asked.Before I got out of his car I said: "If I told you this is my first time doing this, would you believe it?" Hook, line, sinker, extras. "Next time I make smokey bacon out of you." I flipped my "Santa."What did I buy Boy Toy with my first taste of success? I clapped my hands twice, staff delivered him a bouquet of black&red roses. My man laughed.He's been laughing for ten good minutes now. He rarely laughs. Is there a connection with Venus' sire having the opposite problem?I take it all back. It's Christmas and I am merry.I hope all of you are merry too
