How many of you guys play solo? I have a group who would sometimes be down for KDM, but I suspect I would be playing solo a lot of the time. I generally like solo games; does this play well?
>>97998939Honestly I dont even understand how you would play this as a group. I played it solo to practise for a friend group and realised it would be terrible with 4 players.And I dont even like solo games
>>97998959Thats great to hear and that seems to be the general consensus. Personally I know dick-all about minis or painting them, but I am looking forward to the gameplay itself. I’ll be doing a lot of lurking here since l imagine I’ll die a shitload when I’m first starting out. Also, while I won’t be getting it for years, how much does GC add to the game? Significant improvement, bloat, or something in-between?
>>97998972GC is KdM 2, it's almost a completely different game
>>97998972GC improves on the base game a lot.There's fighting arts or Secret Fighting Arts you'll never see because of the way randomness fucks you.GCE's solution is to move away from those random things (you can only have 1 of each vs 3 in base game) in favor of things you can control with the philosophies.
>The Inverted Mountain expansion combines the Frog Dog, Oblivion Mosquito, Pariah, Black Knight, Red Witches, Nightmare Ram, and Gryphon expansions into one campaign!Jesus christ that’s a $1000 campaign what the fuck is Poots smoking
>>98002986yes
>>97998857Oh shit, oh fuck! Finally, after all these years, my favorite monster expansion has arrived. Holy FUCK those seams are going to need a blistering amount of sanding and refitting or I'm going to have to use heaps of greenstuff to get it all in line. In all seriousness; Poots, I love you, but why is every big figure like this? Ass to dry-fit because it falls apart unglued, and glued together it has serious alignment issues because multiple things had to be glued simultaneously. It's a bigger nightmare than actually fighting these things in a showdown, to be honest.
>>98005503And that was the flattering angle. This things got the G A P going on with it. Thankfully I don't plastic cement it right off the rip, I have learned over the years to do a super glue dry fit and then smash it apart to try and minimize misalignment and parts shifting during assembly. The assemble order on this one isn't difficult mind you, no guessing how anything lies; it just refused to be put together without committing to bonding the whole thing at once.
Anyone else hate dealing with this every big model release? I still haven't finished putting my black knight together because of the highly involved sanding process to fix the female border seam so that it actually mates up with the male half.
Fuck yea, threads back. We just had another game last night. We had some down time after the nemesis rush so we fought one more lvl 2 lion (we didn't have cat eye till now. Blue charm cant save us forever), and fought a lvl2 phoenix (tried to get some hollow wing bones for the arrows, ended up with an hours ring as well).How are your societies going, anons?
Has anyone skimmed through SG and PQ expansions? How lore-packed are they?
>>98006151I don't skim lore, but I flipped through the book and it looks like a juicy expansion. Node 4 Screaming God, replacement Climax fight for Queen. I have a campaign that's long in the tooth that I could slot these monsters into without a single headache. Who wants to fight Gold Smoke Knight anyways?
>>98005747Im sad still that some if them were so egregious that I just didnt have the will to be perfect with it. >>97998939>>97998959We play in person, handing out player responsibilities (ones the banker, one keeps track of resources, one does monster AI, ect). Doing it all solo would seem pretty fucking exhausting on the physical copy. TTS would be an exception with how much of its automated.
