Your issue isn't that it's not possible.

The issue is it being game 1 type army. While your armies can be on paper considered extremely strong. (Such as the Anchorite) but you have such limited models on the board.

In a game you'll likely not be able to secure locations. Some armies (Like the Grail) can have up to 12+ models in one army.

Does that make sense? I say have 1 Anchorite Shrine, and adjust the costs to give yourself more pilgrims.

>>97360201
Anon, I'm so sorry the longer I look. The worse this army looks. No offense.

>War Prophet
You need to ensure this model is a bit heavier. Invest in at least standard armor. You should be running the Anti-Tank Hammer.

>Castigator
The way you're running them is wasted. Give them a Punt Gun and some armor as well. The Shrine doesn't need the Punt Gun. Also try to get some armor.

>Shrines
Limited yourself to one. You're starting your warband. You can ALWAYS buy another down the road.

Trench Pilgrims aren't to be slept on with their Anti-Fear mechanics on their Iron Capirote. Just give them some bolt action rifles and some Bayonets.

Think of it as you building up the board to get your second Shrine.

may I get a rating
>>97358809

>>97358809
As I said the other Army list, Sniper Priest with a Machine Gun is utterly superior in every way. It may not allow you to pin an enemy down across the map but with your current build you have enough models to hold them in place.

Getting another Machinegun in the list or- rather your first one will make a pretty big difference.

>Grenades
I don't know who the fuck hurt you but not every single model needs a grenade, you will be lucky if you throw two in a game. Three max if your enemy is really unlucky or just not playing well.

Try to remove some of them, see how much Ducats you have left to try and invest into more Yeoman.

You have a musician. That's great, don't know what that Frag Grenade is gonna do for them in combat. Give them a pistol or something. You don't want a sitting duck.

Other than that the list seems solid. Just ensure your LT isn't too battle-damaged from engagements or you might need to retire them.

>>97360303
>I don't know who the fuck hurt you but not every single model needs a grenade, you will be lucky if you throw two in a game. Three max if your enemy is really unlucky or just not playing well.
Prussians. Given they arent consumable (cept the charge) its arguably better to use and makes for an effective bleed/assault

>>97349958
Where is this? Can't seem to find it on the mediafire.

Have we done anything with John Browning yet? I've been discussing gun designs with a friend, and the subject of Browning came up with him getting started in this exact period. Of course, most of his more famous designs, the 1911, Hi-Power, .50 M2, etc. are from later, but he was still designing and making several firearms before the turn of the century. And we've nudged the development period of certain designs before, with the Maxim I believe.

I'm just divided on whether to keep him pretty normal with a blank cheque from the government post-Paraguay, or work in something Hyperborean. He'd basically be a saint up there with everything he's made/going to make. Alternately, I thought about somebody finding a 1911 or something on the battlefields of Paraguay and it makes its way into his hands (2000 Psychic Wars!)

>>97360094
We haven't done enough with the Paraguayan War in general. The Second Oriental Crisis got a massive point by point description, and the Fall of Paris and the survival of the city also has a ton of lore. Compared to them, Paraguay has very little.

Cain will just be Sharpe in space, so meh..

Make it a Dark Heresy show, 4 acolytes form 4 different worlds, easy to get newcommers to understand the lore, wide range of story and you can always put in some Deathwatch in the lot.

Of course, DH was in 815.m41, everyone's now dead since we're 1000 years in the future for some reason, where every Cadians is now a Black woman.

And yes sex, sex and swearing is what writers understand now, can't have a show with either for some reason. sometimes I wonder if I'm too smart for entertaiment, or it is simply too dumb for me.

Sharpe is actually the only necessary tv show. I've seen Sharpe, don't need to watch the others.

>>97360091
I'm not against a Dark Heresy show, but if you're going to have the first 40k show it needs to be IG. It's down to earth, you can have an enemy of the season or episode, and the Guardsmen barely know anything. It's the perfect introduction.
You try Space Marines or the Inquisition, and the audience immediately has to swallow Imperial religion and "kill the mutant and witch" and normalfags will run.

The problem with an IG show is the inevitable turn into non military slob to attract the female market, not to mention the mandatory Commissar killing guardsmen.
Althought if they take it seriously, which they won't, and make it like Combat! or Tour of Duty, it might be worth watching. Plus there's pretty much Cadians and Cathachan left as 'official' Regiments, Death Korps are just clones made to fight and die and who will make a show about soldiers who ever show their faces all the time for real?

I literally, explicitly said that I don't expect anyone to talk about deconstruction in the philosophical sense. I specifically provided a definition of deconstruction that pretty much is the "tvtropes shit" definition - ie. the one that's more commonly used than any philosophical or literary critique definition - and pointed out that it doesn't really fit the use of the word ITT, either. Do you have some kind of an issue with reading comprehension? Like, to look at the actual fucking TV Tropes definition, since you brought it up, it says that:

>When applied to tropes or other aspects of fiction, deconstruction means to take apart a trope in a way that exposes its inherent contradictions, often by exploring the difference between how the trope appears in this one work and how it compares to other relevant tropes or ideas both in fiction and Real Life. The simplest and most common method of applying Deconstruction to tropes in fiction among general audiences and fan bases, and the method most relevant to TV Tropes, takes the form of questioning "How would this trope play out with Real Life consequences applied to it?" or "What would cause this trope to appear in Real Life?"

How do you, and that's you. personally, anon, feel that applies to gods being distant in Exalted? How does it apply to the discussion on whether Exaltation should be considered reincarnation or not?

>>97360288
Exalted made a point of specifically contrasting itself with DnD, though, making a big deal of differences rather than similarities.

>Stop being autistic and planting your flag on this hill. Why is this something you're even being this stubborn about? Besides autism
Why are you, anon? I mean, you're right here arguing with me about this. I don't personally think that pointing out the simple fact that distant gods are common in Western fantasy, and that they are a thing in several of the novels Exalted lists as its inspirations, is particularly stubborn or autistic, and the reason I keep talking about this is simply because people keep, or at least one person keeps, bizarrely trying to argue that distant gods is somehow a deconstruction or in any way unexpected.

>>97360315
>Why are you being stubborn?
>"nuh uh, you!"
Step away from the computer and calm down.

>>97360318
Anon, I'm not having this discussion here alone. Take a look in the mirror. I will step away from the computer as I need to go to work now, though.

>>97360299
>It means that all existing elements of a work are played without the Rule of Cool, Rule of Drama, Rule of Funny, and so on, to see what hidden assumptions the work uses to make its point.
Exalted does this at literally every point. Solars coming back to get punked by a death squad because they are still too inexperienced, magic sword factories because why wouldn't you, the prayer trade, heaven being run by incompetent in middle managers. Then you get the stuff that's intentionally contrary, like epic heroes actually being part of an automated system to make them into those superheroes.

Yes? What about them?

>>97356728
I thought that was generally understood.

Most systems and book series go through various answers but normally elves make better wizards overall. Either the elves have an extra century or two to learn and master their craft, or they are some inherently magical species that is just plain better by birth. It's all the same in the end.

Humanity's strength is always in numbers. They are not the best at anything but they are more populous. They are the smart horde species while orcs, goblins and everything else that wins wars through wave tactics are complete savages. Humans are the mostly intelligent wave tactic savages that can be kind of not shit at things.

It's all about the key squares. The key squares of a pawn where it's the only (relevant) pawn on the board are if it's on the enemy side of the board all six squares directly in front of the pawn, and if it's on its own half of the board it has only 3 such key squares - you skip the row in between.

What the hell is a key square? A key square means if the attacking king can occupy it, the pawn queens, if not it's a draw.

So here the pawn is on d7, the key squares will be c5, d5 and e5 - skip a rank due to it being on your own side of the board remember? So these concepts are kind of clunky at first and can take time to get to know but they're well worth it if you want to be good at such endings.

If white moves first: Kd2 Kc7 Kd3 Kd6 Kd4 - and the black king can never reach one of the key squares because the white key can gaurd them. Obviously if for example Ke6 instead white will just go Ke4, still stopping him from getting to the key square. The key squares are only different for a rook pawn, where the defending king only has to get to the last rank on the third file across c1/c8/f1/f8 for it to be a draw.

It's more interesting if the king has to go to the side. For example if the position is a white pawn on b4 and the white king is on c1, and the black king is on f8 the key squares become a5, b5 and c5 and the attacker must get to one. But if he goes Kc2 Ke7 Kc3 Kd6 Kc4 Kc6 he again can't get to a key square. But if he goes for the a5 square instead: Kc2 Ke7 Kb3 Kd6 Ka4 Kc5 Ka5 and he's made it and he queens.

2/2
>>97357011
Also if you're the defending king always put your king in one of the two squares in front of his pawn when you can, when that's not possible, move it to the side to match his king's movement. You can do things different but when you've seconds on the clock you want simple rules. It's very painful to lose a clearly drawn k vs p ending.

I'd like to provide a counter point to that line of thinking, in that basically every form of supplimental media related to the Avatar IP has failed. The IP literally only exists in the context of it somehow being able to rake in money at the box office whenever a new movie comes out. Everywhere else? It essentially doesn't exist. And honestly, I think that's mainly due to the fact that it's JAMES CAMERON'S Avatar. He's a director with a very good track record and a recognizable name.
You also seem to be genuinely confused with what "Staying power" means and seem to think it's the exact opposite of what it is. If something has cultural staying power, then people are going to be talking about it and remembering even during the times when no new content is coming out. In some cases this CAN lead to a constant drip of secondary or supplemental material coming out, since... well if people are still talking about something a year, 2 years, 5 years, or more after it's had any real attention, then that means that there's the potential to still make money off of it, but something with a lot of cultural staying power doesn't need a constant drip feed of new content to be something people care about.
Also, One Piece predates pirates of the Caribbean.

>>97359116
Even though the current box office numbers are at 1.2 billion for Avatar 3, that's not really all that good since apparently their "Break even" point was literally a billion dollars. This is somehow a movie that's made over a billion dollars and is still probably only going to end up as a "Moderate success"

>Should I go pure jump infantry?
A core formed by a Master of Descent and their custom detachment is very attractive for both gameplay and modeling. Follow it up with a Delgatus for some extra elites or some massed assault squads/destroyers.

>>97360235
Terran emperor's children were known to use white so that could work, and as anon mentioned the master of descent detachment let's you take a Praetorian command squad and 2 prime veteran assault squads so you can have 3 squads of jump pack elites that can all challenge.

>>97360302
Master sergeant is only once per detachment so instead you can take a logistical slot for an extra assault squad or take veteran veterans to get really stuck in

>>97360235
Jump infantry are very viable now, even more so for EC. With their high set up move (part of charging) it is very easy to deny enemy units their chance to react, overwatch, or volley fire.
Praetorian command squads with jump pack and assault veterans are real scary, and with thunder hammer and combat shield will kill many times their own point cost in terminators.
There's also palatine blades with jump packs in the legacies rules.
Destroyers with jump packs are a huge force multiplier, and assault marines are a neat harassment unit to deal with troops, shooty infantry, and tanks with weak rear AV.
Would advice to also bring a few squads of despoilers to have some Line 2 in your army.
