Not sure. I enjoy Stormtroopers. The current Scions are okay looking. But I am kind of worried they'll bring back 3rd metal stormtrooper vibes in plastic, which will ruin the aesthetic with nuGW sloppiness.

Nothing GW really excites me anymore. I should just stick to collecting old stuff.

3 is peak players since each person can have a clearly defined third of the party's roles which means less overlap. It also means the group is less likely to split up since that will mean someone is being left alone and thus vulnerable.
There is a reason why Magic-User, Thief and Fighter is so ubiquitous in TTRPGs and media that inspired it.

As a fellow aphantasia person the goal is to rely on your other senses and/or rely more on maps you've made. Your projector is broken so do not rely on theater of the mind.
When you GM talk about sounds, smells, scents. Using three senses locks people in more and paints a broader picture.

Right, I can't have two auras simultaneously. But I'm fairly certain I can "move" where the aura is during a turn. If have A and B, I think on my turn I can decide I'm A for my first attack, then B for my second, and then the aura emanates from B, which may or may not be more tactically advantageous depending on the positioning of my allies. I might be wrong, though, please correct me if I am.

>>93444259
I had also been considering Champion for the dedication. Mirror seems tricky to handle. Very unique, distinct rules. The main benefit of Mirror Champ isn't the double aura, it's having a broader area of control for your reaction(s).

>>93444776
Of course it was perfectly in their legal rights. But it was an absolute scumbag move. It wasn't hurting their IP at all, in fact it was only making it more famous, and they didn't have a competing offering anyway. The alternative was no shows at all.
They strongarmed the content creators into their paywalled service, which simply died.

It wasn't just a scumbag move it was just retarded.

I don't think I've ever seen anyone play doctors, vatican, or patricians. Lots of guild, lots of rashaar, some vampires, one guy who plays Commedia dell'arte because he's a huge nerd. But never doctors.

I think Rashar are definitely the most popular faction, who doesn't love seamonsters.

>>93445586
I play Vatican, at first their design was a little generic but the designers recently have really gotten into a really cool space for the new models with them. I hope the Patricians get something similar, they seem to be the only faction that's really missing something that stands out.

>>93446611
Patricians just seem to be lacking attention in general.

Thinking of dropping down to 15mm. I have a pile of 28mm that borders on the ridiculous though, I have no idea how I'd sell it.

Not that 28mm isn't a beautiful scale with good ranges, my hands are just way too monged to clean up and put together multipart plastic kits.

Like, my pattern is this - buy a lot of 28mm. Watch half of it crash and burn at the building stage, paint the rest but it's an incomplete unit now so fool around, feel guilty, buy replacementa, feel more guilty.

>git gud

There is an argument for that but my hands and back are pretty mangled.

I guess I'm about to sell a LOT of minis at a loss. Will probably keep anything monopose.

>>93424790
IDK how modern D&D is doing it but in OG Vancian casting, "preparing" a spell was actively holding the concept in your head in a holding pattern in preparation for releasing it on command. It was like twisting your brain into a yoga pose and holding it there, in tension, all day. Learning how to do this at all took years and years of practice, and doing it for multiple spells at a time was incredibly difficult. That's why it takes so much practice to learn magic and why even very powerful wizards can only keep a few spells locked and loaded at a time. They never "forget" their spells.

There was a huge difference between being able to read magic versus actually twisting your brain in such a way as to cast a spell on a given day. It's like the difference between knowing the things that go into tightrope walking and actually walking a tightrope. The knowing part's easy, the doing's hard.

I think so too. All the possessed get red eyes when using their divine skill, but Masanori's are covered by the glasses every match when they used to be fully visible in the climax of his fights in *Dress

>>93446920
It also feels like he threw the fight there at the end by not guarding a single attack.

>>93446920
>>93446631
It's gotta be Akina or Masanori
Masanori makes the most sense but Sybilt subtly amplifying Akina's need to protect Hikari to the point that it's currently ruining their sibling bond also works.

My only issue atm with the AI is that I asked it to give me lists based on points (a standard 300 list and in another request a 150pt one for a starter game) and it didn't do anywhere near the right points or allowed SWC.
It seems to go for lore and what are decent pics, though doesn't factor in points. It also suggested weapon load-outs that don't exist currently.
Otherwise it's decent when it comes to lore, so I'll likely poke at it with requests for the stuff I'm playing.

>>93446040
No, nearly all the important lightsworn cards got reprinted in the latest BoL, you also need some stuff from LEDE so there's no point on acquiring 3 structures. The deck doesn't work "pure" either, you'll have to toss some tearlaments or wight cards in it, maybe even a horus package since it's a free zombie vampire.

Could try this homebrew I wrote a while ago. Attempts to solve one particularly large problem with Deckmaster by making it so that only Normal and "Non-Effect Ritual" monsters can be your deckmaster. Every time I've tried the official version, it's just boiled down to some cockcunt running the most degenerate floodgate possible as their deckmaster.

>You pick 3 deckmasters during the deckbuilding process (only 1 is active), and tag them out while sideboarding
>Heavily benefits Normal Monsters that share the same Attribute and/or Type as your Deckmaster, making them generally easier to bring out, and to a much lesser extent, Effect Monsters
>Punishment for losing your Deckmaster is removed entirely. Now you just need to pay a cost to bring it out, and it returns to the Deckmaster Zone if it's used as material for a summon.
>Normal Monsters are given effects as per the Deckmaster's "Ability", though this part you can cut out if you don't like it.

It isn't a perfect system, but in the few opportunities I've had to test it out IRL, it's worked out pretty decently.

>>93444512
>TQ
A preconstructed format. One where the card pool is restricted to structure decks and similar products (Starter Decks, Tactical Try, etc).
>Limited card pool, as described above
In addition to the above examples, decklists from Rivalry of Warlords format is also allowed.
>Semi-Limits across the board by default along with a custom banlist.
This keeps consistency slightly lower to promote experimentation, instead of cramming 3 structure decks together and calling it a day.
>Forbidden/Limited list whitelists some cards that can be run at 3 copies
Such as BEWD to summon Ultimate for example. This is used sparingly.

The hopeful result from it would be a slightly more casual space for new players to get accustomed to the game, and give Konami a reason to print more archetypal structure decks.

This is the simple answer, anyway. I like to homebrew but I know they wouldn't work well as alt formats.

>>93444512
>TQ
A format that does the Duel Links/Speed Duel style of banlist with it expanded out with a Limit 4 and maybe Limit 5 category.

TL;DR for those who haven't gone into those formats, if two cards are on Limit 2, you can play:
>2 copies of Card A
OR
>2 copies of Card B
OR
>1 copy of Card A and 1 copy of Card B

It allows for stuff like a powerful staple and a powerful archetypal card to exist on the same slot of the list, restricting the power of said archetype because it can only play one of the two while Rogue can play the staple freely. Additionally, makes every slot matter more because if two necessary cards to a deck exist at, say, Limit 3, and one moves DOWN to Limit 2, then it can act as a sorta buff. Thereby making every slot on the list matter unlike how Semi-Limited kinda acts.
