You're overthinking this. Just play. You'll make mistakes initially, and you'll improve with time. No big deal.

Also, for decades kids have learnt to play D&D without watching videos on YouTube. You really don't need them.

>>97266962
I dont concur with this advice entirely. While its true that Burger King has some good videos, he has a lot and its very hard to tell them apart at a glance. You're better off downloading subtitles off Daddy Rolled a 1 and having an AI summarize them for you (given the two hour video runtime). Focused mostly on B/X, mostly surface level, with more context, history, comparison to LBB/OD&D/AD&D it seems to me the better deal, if it must be a YouTuber.

Just use the OSE srd

For all its shortcomings in the censorship department, I think Dolmenwood mostly does well to add to the B/X base with clarifications, some from AD&D. For someone like me who is too autistic to organically fill in the blanks left in the rules, it's great material. The SRD is a bit messy, but at least it is easy to navigate (and thus it is easy to cherrypick the additions). It specifies the weight of misc. adventuring gear as well as things adventurers are capable of (thus preventing mudcore slowdown of play). However it still does not complete the wilderness game or add a complete domain game.

What the fuck are you talking about, anon? Nobody ITT has said that surviving on the Isle is impossible for Solars, just that it's a dangerous place and that the peasants being taught to fear tge Anathema has an impact.

Fuck off. I’ve asked for links in these threads and multiple others and never seen a fucking thing. Also I see it’s now progressed to a ‘rape’, weird how it started as ‘Trench Crusade fans being edgy spergs’ and has become ‘serious crime’.

For the record I’m Australian with deep connections in the Sydney scene going all the way back to the 90’s (think Atlantis Games on Pitt St before my friend Dennis committed suicide over that cunt Chaedy) and I’ve seen and heard literally nothing about it outside of unsupported claims in these threads.

More insecure and defensive. And also generally less invested in the setting as an identity despite those two points being contradictory. Some of the AoS community retains a siege mentality from a decade of being shat on by those outside AoS.

Why do cities of sigmar look so shit? Are they made to look like that on purpose?

Less insecure about power scaling, because Nagash could beat all of Star Wars, meanwhile 40k would get clowned on by a casual hyperspace capable enemy yet they pretand ordinary bullets are somehow better than literal lasers

The Republic of Bogarus is another relatively late convert to monotheism and still keeps signs of its old pagan roots in the form of holidays and lore keepers. The Bogars managed to fight off a major Muslim raid and have a very deep dislike for Islam as a result.

Popsicle stick to set the alignment plane and a pair of tweezers for fine adjustment will do the job. 3x2 independent joints that can be aligned one at a time is a hell of a lot easier than four joints that all have to be aligned at once.

I saw a YouTube series once where two guys would use DM pack emulators to simulate a sealed pool of the first expansion and play a few games with each other. Then instead of creating an entirely new pool, they would instead get a pool from the second expansion, add the two pools together and play with decks created like that. So on for the third expansion, the fourth etc.
Do you think it would be fun to do something like this with another acg? And instead of two random dudes, it's a weekly tournament. Basically going through the history of a game.
Does this post make sense? I might be too tired

Well yeah. I can and will mess anything up, and plastic glue never seems to hold. Hell I can't even get green stuff to hold, it just never hardens

>>97265295
Greenstuff dries, but only really hardens after several days, and even then is still springy. If you want hard, try milliput.
For your question, you'll have to scratchbuild something. Maybe a halfling howdah on a pygmy elephant? Bigger contact points than a crows nest. Also, have you tried using superglue and braided wire instead of plastic glue and just plasticard?

>>97265231
>balsa sticks and hotglue gun, wire as barbewire also holds together
>disposable plastic shotglass with stuff attached to it
Could try using small pushpins to fix the card to the outside, glue them and put a dob of putty on the inside so it has a fastener.

>>97265295
>plastic glue never seems to hold
Get better plastic glue (I use Revell Contacta Professional and Tamiya Extra Thin) or better plastic (HIPS or similar, there are specific plastics the glue will work on and ones where it won't).

But I thought women are equal to men? So why would they be worse?

>>97270280
Scientists say that they have a smaller brain.

>>97270280
Women are less ambitious than men on average and are self-contained and self-satisfied. Men are constantly reaching outward and upward and trying to distance themselves from the womb. This is how civilization was raised, and why religion changed from Mother Earth worship to Father Sky God. It’s not that women are less intelligent, they’re just different, on a deep level. Women want to burrow, men want to conquer.
Theoretically, if a woman was grown in a lab and brainwashed to want to be a competitive chess player, there’s no reason she wouldn’t be able to, and her name is Judit Polgar.

>>97270280
Women are not as adept at spatial-visual reasoning, presumably a biological hangover from when men were hunters and needed to anticipate and plan the movements of prey they were hunting. It's why they also suck at making furniture, they don't have the same capacity to visualize moving and placing objects in the future. Doing that well is obviously fundamental to complex chess but I'm sure there are other reasons too like women being in general less autistic and competitive than men.

>>97267760
>Do scenarios affect gameplay a lot, or do you just basically want to wipe the enemy?
As of now, the game has 7 primary and 7 secondary missions. They are fairly diverse, and you gain most points through your primary mission. However, there are a couple of primaries that are very prone to draws (eg. Recover the research), in which case you usually win on secondaries. There are only 2/7 secondaries that award points for killing.

>Also wot are the factions like, do they have their niches, or can anyone be good at anything basically.
As mentioned before, each faction CAN play in multiple ways, but they do have a core identity.
>Empire
The "vanilla" faction. They have the fewest tricks and mostly rely on raw statlines. Besides their heroes, they are definitely a shootling army first and foremost.
>Rebels
The tricksy glass cannon faction. They have by far the most ways of messing with the enemy through command cards. They hit hard, with lots of pierce, but most of their units fold like wet paper under sustained fire.
>CIS
The endurance/synergy faction. Lots of bodies, lots of armor, tons of multi health units, many support abilities to keep your dudes alive just enough to score. As a CIS player, you also have by far the best order control, being able to plan out which units go when due to units like b1s having coordinate.
>GAR
The elite/synergy faction. Your units are generally expensive, but every clone trooper can generate tokens to share with other clones. Your objective as a clone commander is to make a list where every unit compliments each others' abilities.

thanks a bunch!

Couple more things, does the game... "flow" well? Is there always different things to do, or is it the usual "activate my strongest unit and shoot the enemy's unactivated strongest unit"?

And can you snatch victory from the jaws of defeat, or if some random bad stuff happens early on, you are just in for 90 minutes of losing right from the start?

And how does the game feel on the table, I mean... most games I have played are on the skirmish level and have that feeling of "this guy is behind this barrel so he gets a cover bonus, meanwhile this guy is aiming for an extra to hit bonus", from the couple of games I have seen SWL is a more "high level" with entire units doing things - which could be fine, but I am worried about the "granularity" of the game... like... like the units being sort of abstracted with the "only move the squad leader" and "everyone does the same thing" and the other models in a unit basically being tokens, window dressing, if that makes sense?

This is one of my pet peeves with 40k, it is a game where the models "don't matter", it feels like in 40k you could draw a couple of blobs/rectangles on paper and just precisely position/measure them in a way to maximize your shots without really having to put models on the table. Especially with competitive table setups it boils down to geometry and math...

>does the game flow well
In my experience, as long as the result of the game isn't a foregone conclusion, absolutely. Playing Legion is almost constant tension, action, rolling, planning and reacting. Every activation can change the state of the game, requiring you to adjust your plans. The only down time in Legion is when your opponent is thinking and when you're moving filler units.
>And can you snatch victory from the jaws of defeat, or if some random bad stuff happens early on, you are just in for 90 minutes of losing right from the start?
You can, definitely. I recently had a game where my opponent killed most of my army, but I managed to win by knocking one of his b1 squads off an objective in the last activation. Or, winning with exactly 1 b1 on the board because I scored more on turns 2-4.
>other models in a unit basically being tokens, window dressing
Nope, where you put your non-leader minis does matter. For one, only minis that can draw line of sight to an enemy can shoot them. Two, you can bodyblock enemy squads and vehicles by spreading out your squads. Furthermore, enemy can only kill as many minis as they can see in their shooting attacks, so hiding your boys can limit enemy killing power.
