No its specially says if it is impossible not a draw a line that intersects with this model that unit cant shoot

It fully blocks shooting and it can be walked though by both players as long as you unit doesn't end ontop of it.

Oh shit so I can use the base of the wall like cover but it doesn't stop people from walking through BUT if they start their turn by it it fucks with their... I think it's charge rolls or running rolls? (I don't recall off the top of my head) but okay, that's not too shabby.

lol the reaction i expected. idk i just never hated Sigmarines. they are paladins basically. my only worry with my own plan is i'd want them to be RARE like how space marines are described in lore
>legendary
>one of them worth an entire battalion etc.
so they'd be capped at 1 unit per 2k points or something for Empire, but GW would probably get greedy and we'd have entire armies of them before long.

>>97829797
I hope so man I’d actually be really upset if they nuked TOW after restarting the setting and having it constantly sell out releases. Fuck AoS that one can go

>>97829842
Setting aside your bad opinions, your ideal timeline immediately starts with a false premise. The End Times should not have happened. Categorically, unilaterally, unequivocally, even considering blowing up the world was stupid. Second, the very notion of there being an "everchosen" is retarded and undermines chaos worship as a concept. It was a mistake as far back as 5th edition when Archaon wasn't explicitly called the "everchosen". Archaon as he has been since 6th edition is a bad character who should have died during the Storm of Chaos. If the concept of an "everchosen" (loathsome as it is) must exist, the time period the game is set in cannot be during the lifetime of an "everchosen" for reasons I feel no need to explain. Third, having Nagash replace the Nehekharan pantheon is just flat out retarded. Bring him back, make him exist, fine, but don't fuck up what the Tomb Kings have going on. Fourth, fuck off with the skavenwank. We know where that takes us. Finally, Sigmar coming back is stupid for two reasons. First, Fantasy is not 40k. Fantasy does not need to differentiate itself from 40k because it's not 40k in the first place. Second, making the game all about "important" GW-named characters and treating it as a story that needs to be advanced all the time is a bad idea and is exactly what AoS is doing and AoS stinks. So don't. Leave Fantasy alone, or better yet have a team of non-retards write the rules and then leave it alone. The setting was never why the models stopped selling.

>>97829916
>end times was mistake
eh, should have done it like the forge world idea mby with 4 invasions then 'undivided' champ (archaon) but only mistake imo was making it the actual end and not just a big event to shake up lore a bit
>everchosen is retarded, was a mistake to begin with
i agree, hence my ideal is archaon getting killed by sigmar, so we can just go back to cycle of chaos warlords rising up periodically
>nagash
while i like the current tk pantheon, i like the idea of nagash actually fulfilling his ambition more. this is my least adherent position, fine either way, but nagash being a proper deity seems cool (maybe he could rule among them and not overthrow them idk)
>fantasy is not 40k doesn't need blah blah
yeah for sure, hence your earlier point about everchosen being a bad idea and should have ended with storm of chaos i agree with, felt like 40k-ifying the setting to me. thing is that Sigmar disappearing is objectively some of the worst GW lore of all time. is he dead? who knows skaven did something...there is no way for it to make sense, it was shoe horned in for no fucking reason at all, idk WHY fantasy can't just have a bad ass LIVING god emperor. and looks like GW are going to kill Sigmar and make him disappear AGAIN from aos, reinforcing my point that this is some retarded
>WHFB must be like 40k, no hope, no hero, emperor false/dead/braindead/lost whatever and i'm sick of it

>>97826705
The World of Darkness had free publicity in the form of a bunch of popular books series in the 2000s that openly ripped ideas from the setting (like The Southern Vampire Mysteries). What did White Wolf do? Nothing, literally nothing, just sat on their asses and no lawsuits, no demands to convey to readers that the books are based on their setting, just 0 activity. Honestly, I don't understand how you can do nothing when life has given you a one in a billion chance.

>>97827818
Did they rip ideas from white wolf, or were they both ripping ideas from other shit (mainly Anne Rice.) I like WoD but it's mostly derivative as fuck.

>>97827818
D&D did it even worse. They had Critical Role and Stranger Things and the Coof lockdowns make the whole world suddenly pay attention to D&D and what did they do? Released a gimmicky collection of faux-retro Stranger Things adventures nearly a decade after the first season premiered, long after their time to shine had ended, and just before the release of the worst season of the show.

>>97829337
Your timeline is incredibly goofy, buddy. The original Stranger Things starter set came out in 2019, the second thing they put out in 2025. The real bag dropping occured with the whole OGL fiasco in 2023 and the incredibly stupid launch of 5.5. Releasing a set of adventures """""based on""""" the final season of an incredibly anticipated show that has a tangential connection to your brand actually makes sense. It wasn't until after the season came out that everyone hated it, after all.

>>97829598
I thought there was another one, but only kept finding the hellfire club thing. Still, that's 3 years after the first season, and then 7 more after that, while they were actively releasing the new not-a-new-edition version of D&D, no less.

Also forgot about Baldur's Gate 3, which was so massively successful that it made people who exclusively play 5e stop and think
>wait, why the fuck is the RPG this vidya is based on such much fucking worse than the vidya?
You'd expect them to do some brand synergy, right? Like a campaign setting guide for Faerun like they intended to do towards the launch of 5e? Or maybe a tabletop-ified version of the BG3 adventure with maps and NPC statblocks, and so on. Nope. They made some minis for their dead on arrival VTT service. And then did nothing as BG3 gobbled up all the awards and told everyone how much they hate working with Hasbro and WotC upper management.

hi yugiohbros, magic refugee here fleeing the endless waves of crossoverslop and getting into yugioh for the first time since i was 7 years old. im planning on purchasing the 2026 legendary decks starter and ive started playing master duel, but i have some questions. I built an ancient gear deck based on one that supposedly got to master rank in the ranked ladder (i dont have all the handtraps yet though because master duel makes crafting ultra rares a limited thing), but every game i've been completely obliterated turn 1 by insane combos that i cant stop (pic related, red supernova dragon alone was impossible for me to kill because of its effects). where am i going wrong here, and is the entire main format meta really this insanely combo oriented? are there no midrange and control decks like there are in magic? if not, are there not alternate formats that slow the game down and make it more interactive? it seems like even something simple like limiting special summons to 3 a turn would fix a lot of the issues. anyway, how can i improve and make sure i dont lose every game turn 1, what are the best starter products to buy for someone looking to build a semi-competitive deck for cheap, and what other advice do you guys have?

Do you have the other staples in that list like Lightning Storm, Triple Tactics Talent, Triple Tactics Thrust, and Forbidden Droplet? Something like Droplet for example would win this duel on it's own if you opened it.

So here's the thing, the deck you're going up against isn't a meta tiered deck, there's tons of these kinds of wombo combo decks like this but they die to so many staple cards. I know it sucks to hear because of how UR inflated things are in MD, but if you had that 1 Maxx C, 3 Fuwalos, and 3 Purulia in your deck that Syncho bullshit deck literally would not be able to do anything if you drew those cards

In general in Yugioh as you climb the ranks you see more midrange and control strategies. One of the absolute best decks right now is Dracotail and it's like, one of the most mid range decks that has ever existed in YGO

This is also why limiting special summons doesnt really work as a solution, because there's a lot of really good decks that don't special summon much at all (Dracotail usually only does like 3) but all that is besides the point

In reality decks like the one you faced aren't really that common, you see them at the low ranks because they're a deck an anime protagonist used (for whatever reason like all the anime protags used giga cancer combo decks)
And sometimes you'll run into them and not open the right cards and that's that, but I can assure you if your deck was fully pimped out with all those UR cards in that M1 deck that duel would have been a lot more playable

The most important thing right now I would say is for you to prioritize getting Maxx C, and 3 copies of Fuwalos. Those cards are designed to help stop giga combo decks like the one you faced. If you want to keep playing Ancient Gear then Forbidden Droplet is also super important but there are also slower decks you can play if you'd like
Try to get these bundle deals if you can, they're great for new players to get staple cards

also if you want to play some slower decks I can give you suggestions if you'd want. Sky Striker for example is a control deck and one of the decks in the Legendary Modern set you purchased, so if you wanted to play something slower while also learning about the deck you purchased, that could be a good option.

>>97829407
it's a narrative that goes nowhere or a setting that feels like it's constantly shifting.
It always moves, it goes nowhere

>>97829612
so the players, not just for WH or 40K, used to influence their games through official tourneys and battle reports. Certain models being produced, rules coming about, faction changes could have a reason from there. 40k has kind of done away with that and now instead of marines doing some nonsense, it's the same named marine or primarch or commissar doing it to the point we're gonna see em team up in a novel series eventually.

I'm kinda hoping the rise of 3d printing we'll see something like that again, since even small games can get that going.

Death knight feats look cool

>>97827432
We adventured and moved fairly quickly from beating up rats and goblins to beating up dragons but … while it was interesting it wasn’t fulfilling.

We decided to retire from adventuring for a bit. While saving princesses and ridding towns of evil curses was good in the short term it just seemed we could be doing more with our talents.

It may have been a bit crazy but… I decided to open a Magical Girl Academy. We found those with talent and need for the power, I awake their star seeds and then we trained them in our accumulated skills.

People may have laughed at first at the idea of champions of love and justice in miniskirts, however that died out quickly.

I had grown fairly good at understanding who I could trust with such powers. However this time the threat came from without instead of within.

We wound up a bit too successful and wound up a target of several evil organizations and gods. At first it started off with assassination attempts, but quickly moved on to an all out war as our enemies united together.

Unfortunately our enemies knew of our overwhelming power so they would strike in the most cowardly way possible, it’s tough to handle a bunch of killers when they hole themselves up in an orphanage. However we adapted.
I had a bit of skill in stealth and we got some help from others of such shadowy inclination to make a Magical Girl Wet Works wing of the operation. Those who struck from shadows to take out evil and vanish with precision and stealth as opposed to loud and flashy power.

The Half Celestial part should have an interesting effect on your thoughts, but one you should like. You know how people sometimes feel impulses to do bad things, but with the Good subtype (which I think you should have as a Half Celestial) you instead feel good impulses, and doing anything evil would be as unnatural and unpleasant as an arachnophobe looking at a collage of spider pictures.

>new Terra Hypnagogica chapter is out
>starts with Klaus finding out that Necrium can apparently subvert and infect machinery, subverting robots Mephitior once used called the Hammers
>Ingrid and the Obzan are exploring more vastoplanes, which they've since confirmed to be a type of "proto-plane"; still in their early formation due to the action of organic elements similar to the earliest days of Udraiken - the more primitive their state, the greater and purer the concentration of Fluxium present in them. Obzan further speculate on encountering a "proto-Fluxium", a primitive state of Fluxium with more pure and pristine qualities compared to Udraiken & Orepirrus
>the group gets confident enough to start exploring planes even beyond the vastoplanes
>their first excursion to one of these lands Ingrid in the middle of an endless dark wasteland, featuring only mountainous monoliths and nothing else - no Necrium or Fluxium present at all, not even miniscule amounts of Fluxium
>Ingrid suddenly gets jumped by something with an immense and overwhelming Necrium presence (based on its appearance, it's either an infected Hammer from Klaus's timeline or whatever was infecting them) and it hits her in the face with this
>Ingrid survives (barely) and manages to either destroy or drive it away after a minutes-long exchange
>chapter ends with Noelle & her companion confirming the weirder looks for some of the more peaceful creatures in Udraiken (and possibly the other Planes) is due to Necrium/Viralborgian influence

The biggest things I can take from this jumpwise are a technology-corruption perk for the Necrium background, MASSIVELY raising prices for the Traveler background, maybe a portal generation perk to traverse vastoplanes for piquol sorcerers and maybe a drawback based on going too far beyond the known planes/vastoplanes. Also Ingrid upscale but that's obvious.

I'm gonna use a perk sharing perk to share that perk from Powerwash Simulator that makes people autistic

Been working on a martial arts shonen/xianxia tactical ttrpg for a while. Hitting the feedback block again so I would love if someone could give it a read and tell me what they think. Looking for whats missing and whats confusing, not looking for feedback on book structure. Also general balancing needs to be worked on but feedback on that is welcome too. The main "gimmick" is the declare/resolve combat system that lets characters act at different rates and allows to respond between the start and end of another characters action.
You are also able to use energy to enhance your physical properties like DBZ or YuYu Hakusho.

D20 needs some decently big numbers for mods to matter more than dice. Anything less than +11 means the dice roll probably matters a lot more than the mods. And this is before getting into what you want your target numbers to be. If you want mods to matter more than rolls you're probably gonna wanna do 3D6 where the majority of rolls will land within a smaller average range, where +1 actually matters a lot more than +1 in a D20 system.

It's illegal to review a product you were paid to review, without disclosing this. It's a form of fraud. The fact that TTRPGs and tiny YouTube channels are generally beneath the FTC's notice (especially with the current admin's pro-crime stance) doesn't change this.

If the person had previously posted reviews without disclosing his material connection to the producer, then it is totally reasonable to believe he reviews things for free.
