9th needed a few years in the oven.
Because it had potential. Everyone finally had a codex and you could start seeing what worked and what not.
Instead we got the piece of shit that is 10th
I played GSC and 9th GSC was way more fun to play than 10th

>>97217254
I recall in 7th playing with Sisters of Battle. That I simply spammed Immolator with twin multi-melta, as much meltaguns dominions, flamer battle sisters and deeptriking seraphins with shred as I could, then fill up the rest with penitent engines.
It worked surprising well against Necrons

9e was just 10e with more stupid bullshit to remember

UB trash flooding the market is what made me start proxying deck staples.

Arcane Shipyard has good sculpts if 3d printing is an option. They are modular with variant prows for each weapon system and they have both escort and cruiser.

There is a strange code at the bottom of pastebin file.

What is this? How do I use it?

>>97222588
I don't know why they bothered with errata for the Flamer/Man-catcher. It's the single worst weapon in the game and nothing they did changed it.

Also, I guess if a Squat has a circular stone saw as their weapon besides their gun, they make unarmed attacks + circular stone saw. So cheap power pack weapons are overpriced on anyone with more than one attack, and the expensive ones are overpriced period.

>>97222566
>Neither of you has read the actual book
Yeah, and I don't intend to. A summary is fine. I'm just want to know what Ozzy and the previous rulers were. I know they're called "the iron lords" but I don't know what that entails. Cyborgs? Necrons? Guys who traded iron with other systems? Rulers who were though like iron?

>>97218076
How about magic from belief? You have a priest who REALLY REALLY BELIEVES that he can banish a spirit, he matches his willpower against it (his belief) and if he wins, the spirit is banished.

Alternively, the belief could be a resource, ie a priest, wizard of godling has to convince a big enough group of people that their magic works, allowing it to happen. It could be cast using personal methods or a set formulae, but without the belief that it will work, it doesnt.

It would lead to some interesting situations - a unbelieving scientist attempting a spell in a spellbook and nothing happens becasue he has no belief. A powerful wizard, priest or god could be reliant on the belief the people have in them - if the legend of the caster fades over time, their power fades or vanishes as well. It would give priest characters something to do than just heal, they would have to keep trying to generate belief in their particular god or brand of magic, while reducing the power of competing beliefs and religions. Building/destroying shrines and temples would aid one side or another, while a wandering wizard would encourage tales of mystery and wonder that spread from his adventures.

>>97221495
>he matches his willpower against it (his belief) and if he wins, the spirit is banished.
That is a formula that one of its parts is belief. The formula doesn't need to be compromised by hard math to be a formula. A newts eye, the tear of a virgin, and the a true loves kiss combined breaking a curse, or casting Charm Person is still a formula even if two of the parts are not really tangible.

Doesn't work well for tabletop RPGs, or rather requires tremendous effort on GMs side of things.
Because for magic to actually deliver on the "mysterious" side of things it should be exceedingly weird and confusing. You, as a GM, would have to construct an exceedingly complex system of metaphysics and obfuscate it from the players. For there to be genuine mystery, there has to be substance, glimpses of larger workings, a feeling that there is some semblance to alien law/reason that still would completely elude the players minds.
You as a DM basically have to make some odd Cultist Simulator magic system and keep it 90% hidden from the players, good fucking luck.
So no, just making magic rare doesn't fucking cut it.

>>97217677
If magic exists,and it's a natural phenomena, it should be common, spellcasting should be rare because it will be restricted by those in power having access to the knowledge. Spellcasting should take more time based on complexity and power of the formulae, any physical activity consumes energy based on intensity but training should mitigate the effects for a time. Ignoring your limits should be dangerous and magical, the corruption of self be it physically, mentally or spiritually. Now you have crazy magicians, deformed magicians or weir magicians caused by power hungry, not so clever or people skilled on hindsight.

If you want magic as a combat resource then fireballs etc are going to lose any sense of mystery pretty quickly.
If you make casting times a lot longer then you can have magic as a background feature where the scenario is to stop or enable a ritual that opens a portal, summons or bnishes a demon... similar to Call of Cthulhu.
If you drop the hermetic casting approach and have magic being gifted by infernal powers you also get a lot more flavour.

I saw that, it's mixed feelings mostly just depending on the card. I don't mind for the vast majority but it usually boils down to like one or two I hyper fixate on. Gives a good opportunity to try shit out without harming the mainline product.

No, I don't want to watch you have a 30 minute turn and not even be able to concede because you can still faceplant at the finish line. Your deck takes forever and it often doesn't even win lmao.

>>97222970
Sincerely playing against high tide was some of the least fun I’ve ever had playing magic. At least when affinity is raping me I’m feeling some sort of emotion, even if it is indescribable rage. Going against high tide in MTGO meant either a game where nothing happens at all or a game where I pass turn for 25 minutes and wait to see if I lose.

>>97222985
you also have counterplay against affinity. against high tide you either snipe a couple of them with duress or you hope the opponent bricks

It’s the opposite. I don’t care that much about the lore but i likewise don’t want to play against some ballaching metafag which is the majority of people i’ve met in KT so far. To claim that you just want to “throw some dice” is absurd when metafags are the least casual players you can go against.

My last game had my opponent go over the entire meta leaderboard status of the top teams and how the newest dataslate could impact the upcoming this and that other fuckin tournament. Who gives a shit.

>>97216044
I’ve never met the latter in my life in any game. I would find a /yourdudes/ autist pretty annoying i’m sure but i’ve yet to even meet one to make this observation.

The most fun games are somewhere in the middle where it’s a good clean fun game where the rules are observed but both sides remember that we are trying to simulate dudes fighting eachother and not merely moving spreadsheets around

>>97222716
>both sides remember that we are trying to simulate dudes fighting eachother and not merely moving spreadsheets around
Not instigating anything, but what would this look like to you? And how would it impact the game or enhance the enjoyment of the battle? I ask because used to live in a place where our local spot tried to implement a sort of narrative campaign but it ended up just being limply implemented and mostly limited to a whiteboard map that got colored in depending on what faction (Chaos, Xenos, Imperium) won the most games in any given week.
For me, KT has fun rules and good game design so just the act of playing is enjoyable; you could strip out the flavor of the teams and it still would be enjoyable on a mechanical level. Obviously the flavor is what adds the special spice to the game, getting to interact with the factions/setting you like and all that comes with that, but at its heart KT is still a warGAME to me.

>>97223005
Small mats that function as the base for terrain, they're made by gamemat iirc. Helps to define the boundaries of area terrain like ruins. Storage space is limited, so the terrain bases don't have any base plate attached to them.

>>97223007
Fuck off, none of the units that have heavy need a durability boost

>>97222943
I've also played at least once a week since release, and in my experience the army that sits in a corner cowering and doing nothing but shooting generally wins.
For context, we use player placed terrain (rulebook rules + allotment, so 6 impassables that we also treat as heavy, 4 6x6 medium area terrains and 2 10x10 medium area terrains)
Most games end with both players at max primaries but the shooting castle scores Last Man Standing and First Strike which means they win.

>>97223158
That sounds so much difference from my experience. How is the castling player clearing objectives and keep units on them without moving out of their corner? How do they deal with multiple units in Rhinos rushing in and charging them turn 1 or 2?
Every time I've seen somebody try to do the sit in a corner and only shoot they struggle to get LOS to units in time, can't force enemy units off objectives and get their own scoring units on it in the same turn, and have one or two elite melee units that come flying into their ranks which start rolling up all the shooting units.
