So here's my army list, /tg/:Luigi (Fire Flower)6 Toad Scrappers (Mega Mushroom)8 Toad Snipers4 Pianta Medics6 Noki HammerersI couldn't fit Mario in; I needed those Snipers, and his Leadership wasn't as useful as Luigi's Super Jump.
Man, you'll get screwed by Parakoopas without any POW Blocks.
Fit in Mario somehow. You'll get creamed otherwise.
Oh Luigi - You'll barely win any games with him, man. But, you'll annoy the living fuck out of your opponents.Scrap 2 of the medics for another Hammerer. If you're doing things right, the scrappers will be able to stay alive when under fire from ANYTHING, if you just break a block each turn.
A few well placed deep striking Shy Guys and your snipers are fucked. Especially if they bring a Lakitu.
>>2287951Man, my army can kick your army's ass:Megaman XZero20 Metools
>>2287960What.Goddamn you're retarded, POW Blocks have no effect on flying enemies (or ones who make a jump save)
Man, I played this Dry Bones/Buzzy Beetle list the other day, and it was insane. The guy cornered my Bowser with the Buzzies and made mincemeat of my Koopa Troopas with those Goddamn regenerating bastards. (They should NOT come back on a 3+.) I managed to pull out a victory when Bowser got a lucky swing with his Vicious Chain Chomp and took out two Beetles, whose shells wound up downing a few Dry Bones. My opponent pulled back and I managed to capture the objective with Bowser and my remaining Paratroopas.
>>2287986>20 MetoolsOh fuck you, I'm not going to play against your Goddamned cheese force. One of these days they'll fix that in the errata.
>>2287986Yeah, the Metools are really just filler after X and Zero. They overpowered those in 4th Edition.
>>2287989Depends on the Jump Save, man. A jump save of 4+ or lower does not automatically negate POWs. I once wound up taking out a Mario who had EVERYTHING but the Jump Boots, and it was hilarious. It was all because of a lucky scatter roll with my Toad Lobber, though.
Link (Epona, Hero Bow, Fire, Ice, and Light Arrows, and Staff of Seasons. Triforce of Courage upgrade optional.)6 Hyrule Knight Templars6 Wizzrobes10 Hyrule Longbowmano hi rapeforce.
OP is a retarded monkey if he doesn't spend the extra points on the Dodge Master Badge for Luigi. Drop those Toad Scrappers; they're not worth it, even with the Mega Mushrooms.
CHAIN CHOMP OM NOM NOM NOMsersly, got for the swarm armies.
Some idiot tried to convince me that bloopers had a 5+ invuln save.
I'm currently trying a Mario and Luigi army, decked out in E. Gadd gear. FLUDD and Poltergust 3000 are quite a deal for all the utility they offer.
In any objective based mission there is of course only one real choice to make.Watch your opponent cower in fear.
>>2288023As long as you don't pick Alignment - Chomp for your army list. If you do, God help you, because that's a tough list to play. Greater Chomps cost so many points, it's not even funny. Even Lesser Chomps are pretty spendy, though their Group Attack bonus is pretty damn helpful, especially when you can get their Power buffed up.
>>2288036Enjoy having 4 or 5 models to fight with while I bury you in Spike Hat Goombas and Red Koopa Troopas.
>>2288017Link isn't worth dick unless you get him like ten Heart Containers. One lucky ranged attack and he's gone.
>>2288017Link isn't gonna be very cost-effective with all that equipment. Stick to just one of the arrows and consider dropping the staff.
What teh fuck are you fa/tg/uys talking about?
GutsmanIcemanTroops:2x 10 Sniper JoesFast Attack:3x 3 Rob-OstrichesHeavy Support:Cloud-riding Bolt ThrowerCloud-riding Bolt ThrowerRobo-RexThis list has been doing me pretty good.
>>2288037<3 Phanto's 18" movement range.
Dry Bones = Necrons?I totally want to play a Mario tabletop game now.
Is Lord Jabu-Jabu worth the points? Or should I go with some Gorons for hitting power?
>>2288057The Megaman expansion is rotating out of Standard in two weeks. It's over for all of you Megafags. Enjoy getting raped by Yoshi lists when you try to play Legacy.
>>2288058It comes in handy. The only viable counter is "Gary Motherfucking Oak", who has a rule that means he always manages to get to the objective before the enemy.Worth remembering.
>>2288066Gorons. Definitely Gorons.
Seriously op, what'd truly rape you is a troop of boos. Replace fire flower by vacuum cleaner with your luigi
>>2288061Second. Proposing we fire up the 'ol VASSAL and make this game for real.
http://www.videogamedc.com/Pixeled_Parodies/Rise_Of_The_Mushroom_Kingdom/rise_of_the_mushroom_kingdom.htmlGo there, watch the 4 flash movies. Its kind of a crude and childish portrayal, but then, we're talking 40k fanbabies.
>>2288070Instant fear into any good-aligned creature due to rock nipples
>>2288069Everyone knows that the Gary Oak mini was a gag handed out at E3 2004.
>>2288079Boos are really easy to beat, just outmanouver them and they're harmless.
>>2288086Luigi can jump over them, too. God, he's a master in the air. I once had a single Luigi take out a full squad of Blue Paratroopas.
>>2288083That upgrade is way expensive, and while it does have it moments it's not worth it in a competitive scene.It's great for laughs tho.
>>2288043Enjoy my burst radius attacks. E.G. Plumbers are broken as fuck. Especially with the abilities of FLUDD and Poltergust 3000 able to still knock shit prone if not Paint/Ghost versions, rendering defensive spikes useless, or slow down the hordes of Koopa Rush long enough for one of the pair to pull off a Shell Kick.
>>2288079Boos aren't too much of a threat outside of lists that take Ambush! as their army trait. Even then, they're only annoying. Fun as hell to play, I agree, but they're not really tournament viable.
>>2288053Tales of Arcadia.Anyway, I made a Metroid army a while back. Good fun, especially with Link's abilities.
>>2288082>Reported Attack Site!O U
>>2288101Who came up with that name? I'm the OP an even I don't know.
>>2288101>Metroid>LinkI SMELL CHEESE!
What loadout should I use for my Vic Vipers? I'm thinking of the Spreadbomb, Tailgun, Cyclone Laser version with the usual Standard Option kit and Force field.
>>2288101Who plays Crossover lists anyways? I really don't think it's worth the reduction in your total points... Sure, Samus and Link work great together, but then you've got almost no points left for Moblin Brutes and Space Pirate Skirmishers.
Personally I'm a really big fan of a Lakito bros army. Put a third of your points into the flying buggers, and the rest into the spike things they toss out, With some good maneuvering they won't be able to touch you with all but the hammersuit, and no one takes that many points, despite how powerful it is.
>>2288104..what?
>>2288112Well I've seen that Crossovers with R-Series units and Vic Viper/Lord British or the Axelay to be a good team up
>>2288110I don't know shit about the Space Layer; I just let my tourney partner handle it; I'll be kicking ass on the ground, where the REAL game is played.
>>2288121The Vic Viper's an all environment use ship. Why do you think the Standard Missiles or Photon Torpedos have ground skimming abilities?
>>2288114The Hammer Suit is a rape machine if you can keep whoever's wearing it out of harm's way. Four Power 5 ranged attacks attacks with a 16" range and Wing Clip? Sign me up.
>>2288114No. Fuck you and your flyersNext thing we know R'myr will come in with his bullshit about the god damn Owl from Zelda and the bullshit combo with Volvagia and pre-combination Twinrova."OOOH LOOK AT ME AND MY FLYERS" Go to hell.
>>2288068I don't think so. Enjoy getting raped by a Leafman/Diddy Kong combo turn 3.
>>2288125That's true. My buddy playing the Space Layer once saved my ass when he buzzed my opponent's Ridley with his Galaga guys.
>>2288132GOD DAMN DIDDY KONG AND HIS OBSCENELY HIGH MOVEMENT RANGE AND DODGE SAVE.
>>2288139Yea I tend to avoid the Space only units because I like being able to take out most layers for my units.>>2288129If you're willing to spend the points use the Missile Command Silos. Sure you've got to deal with protecting the districts (unless you want to pay a ton of points). 30 shots should be all you need to wipe out any airforce and because of the splash its evil... but the silos got limited range and are stationary and helpless vs ground but if you're dealing with faggots that want to win by airstrike the silos are the way to go
>>2288129I have horrific memories of Twinrova rape barrages.
How's my Resident Evil list?Wesker (Killer 7)4 x 10 T-virus Zombies5 Hunters3 Giant Spiders (Egg sac upgrades)Mr XI was thinking that this list would be pretty slow though, is it worth switching out the hunters for some cerebus dogs? I figure with Wesker in it's pretty much a win/win situation though...
>>2288129The owl from zelda sucks balls, what are you complaining about. He's honestly just a point sink with enough low power attacks to literally bore your opponent to death.
Cave Story expansion is finally out!My army list - Misery (Spur)5 Crow3 Skeleton8 Basu2 Rabil (Red Crystal)
>>2288164Hope the other side don't have units that do fire damage or have tanks
>>2288169But he's got a DICKLOAD of HP. Have you ever tried actually killing him? Even with Wing Clip attacks, it takes FOREVER.
>>2288164Watch out for Fire Piranha Plants. They're stationary, but if you get in range, you can kiss your Zombie units goodbye.
I can't decide if I want the pre-painted Samus Rank III or the Kit version. You can swap weapons without having to use magnets on the pre-painted one, and it's a lot cheaper than the Kit. The only problem is that the paintjob looks like shit. Advice?
I hate these threads because nobody wants to talk anyhting, just make 40k comments replacing all the nouns with nintendo stuff.
>>2288050>consider dropping the staff.Are you retarded?! SoS is one of the only things that makes most Hyrule lists viable unless you know your shit, which >>2288017's use of all three arrows suggests is probably not the case for him.
>>2288172That's why Mr X and Wesker are in there.Tanks generally cost way too much for there to be more than one of them on the table, and it's only going to take out one of them before the other ruins the tank's shit.Flames on the other hand are more of a problem. My zombies have a racial weakness against flame, but assuming they survive that first hit they then count as on fire, which leads to morale modifiers for the enemy. And then of course if they don't die to the flame or a lucky headshot there's always a crimson head save a few turns later...Seriously, those zombies need a nerf now. But then the only other alternative troops choice is Ganados, and they lack the feel I'm looking for in my RE army.
>>2288185I never really understood the thinking about using the zombies... they're not that effective and unless they get lucky are able to hit a poor fool. But still they're fucking useless against tanks or fliers
>>2288171Basus aren't that good. Get more skeletons instead, and maybe some skullheads.
>>2288201Really? Cause I hate 40k and I love this thread.I love this thread this:[]------------------------------------------------------------------[]much
I can decide between Orange Star or Blue Moon. Halp!
>>22882021. Switch to Summer with Staff of Seasons2. Shoot Fire Arrows at everything.3. Use your second action for Quick Reload, return to step 2.Switch, Rape, Repeat
If you want some kickass shit that can fight in both space and in the atmosphere and UNDER FUCKING GROUND, go with a Descent army. I could kick the ass of your standard Galaga army with only my Material Defender, a Bandit and three Smelters. I so fucking could.
>>2288171What? No Red Mimigas?Or did they nerf those for the final release?
I'm telling you guys. Koopa Army + EBA Mercs. Agent J and the Elite Beat Divas help out so much. Especially if you use Jumpin' Jack Flash and La La. A lot of people underestimate La La, though due to their little joke reference to Captain White, an additional wound on a Koopa or Ludwig Von can rock shit.
>>2288213Blue Moon. Grit's CO ability both passive and activateable make him a nasty sniper unit. If you're in a team battle he's almost broken, because of the ability to rain rockets or artillery on the enemy
>>2288213If you're willing to do a Crossover list, get Link with the Staff of Seasons and switch to Winter right away. Enjoy your unimpeded tank movement and bonus to hit.
>>2288202You shouldn't be playing Hyrule guard lists without knowing your stuff. It's too unforgiving, especially without Zelda for the leadership boost.
>>2288160>I have horrific memories of Twinrova rape barrages.HI THERE I'M A FLYER AND WE DO COMBINED BARRAGES. OH U WANT TO SHOOT US TOO BAD GIANT TARGET CALLED VOLVAGIA WITH RIDICULOUS SAVE AND WOUNDSPlus 2+ dodge save against elemental arrows unless stunned. Weak to ice or fire? I'd be nice if they didn't AUTOMATICALLY DODGE YOUR 1-PER-TURN MAGIC ARROWS 80% OF THE TIME>>2288169>The owl from zelda sucks balls, what are you complaining about. He's honestly just a point sink with enough low power attacks to literally bore your opponent to death.Hi there. Lock one unit in place with "Continuous Verbosity". Pile templates on frozen unit.BULL FUCKING SHIT with Twinrova combined template.
>>2288218But if you have the too many robots you might have to deal with the Reactor Core rules...
>>2288225Grit is borderline broken. I bought the Advance Wars codex and couldn't believe my eyes. His PISTOL has a 48" range, and he DOUBLES the range of nearby infantry units? Give me a break!
>>2288225Nah, it's colin who makes blue moon - his point-buy advantage makes it easy to swarm your opponent in cheap units.
>>2288217Sadly that got errata'd into oblivion. It was fun while it lasted.
>>2288235Ah, but if you take the global power "Emulation" you get a one use per game "Turbo Boost Button" to skip through all that.The more you know.
>>2288211Yeah but I love causing air rape. >>2288219Rabils are the same shit but faster and can actually hit people. >>2288218I had a Descent army going but I kept getting my ass kicked because practically everyone but the Material Defender dies quick as fuck while dealing low damage. Don't get me wrong, the Bandit is like one of the most awesome and fun units in the game, but the weakness of most of the units just ruin it.
1 heavy with a 3 medic team8 soldiers6 pyros (with backburners)24 scouts3 engineers1 spydon't win much, but it's funny as hell to play.
>>2288248Please, Emulation works maybe once in 10 games, and not enough people can afford Biggoron Forge models to make it worth taking. Yes, it's useful against Kaepora Gaebora but useless in 90% of your normal games, and at its points cost you're better off leaving it at home and just abandoning the lost unit when it gets stuck.
>>2288239His Infantry take penalties to damage and defense though. His buff only really works for the long range shit. At least its no fucking Sturm. They should make him banned in competitive play. Bonuses to attack and defense and that Bullshit Asteroid power.>>2288241But your units are weaker and easier to kill though. 20% cheaper is nice though
>>2288248Emulation is hellishly expensive, though. It may be an improved version of Conscripts with Crossover rolled in, but its exclusive sub-powers are really pretty lackluster.
Fuck you faggots. You really epitomize /tg/. You've got something that has TONS of interest but all you do is babble shit thats just copy/pasted from a 40k discussion and replace it with /v/ nouns.
>>2288260Until you run into a MAGET spam list with pyro spychecks. Once they start rollig 6s for critrawkets you might as well pack up and go.
>>2288272You're just butthurt because they banned Bowser Rank IV. Enjoy your 40K.
>>2288260My ListGurk10 Medics1 SpyBroken as fuck. You have the spy take out snipers and you're gold.
I'm making a list of all Boo units. Is this awesome?
>>2288254You need to l2shieldorbs. Of course Descent units get raped if they don't have shield orbs, it's a fucking essential. Unless you add in guided missiles, then you can just rape everyone from around corners.
>>2288272This is the most original discussion on /tg/ right now, stop whining and just go to /ck/ or something.
>>2288276That's if there isn't a Spycheck that ruins everything or the medics get bit by a MAGET>>2288273Yea MAGET armies are fun to use even though they keep trying to overnerf them. Although they seem to not be willing to nerf the Demos.
>>2288284You're going to run into problems against an E.Gadd list.Unless you're really confident that you can take down Luigi, I wouldn't do it.Being able to pass through walls and fly makes those units fucking expensive.
>>2288284Fun, but still not tourney viable. Boos are common as shit, though. It seems like every booster pack of Nintendo Legends: 5th Edition has one.
>>2288286Yea its just as essential as Force Pods for R-Series armies
Anyone psyched for the third party expansions? I hear the TF2 one looks amazing.
>>2288286Guided missile spam is broken as fuck. I don't care if they do a tiny amount of damage per hit, nothing should be able to hit you from anywhere.
>>2288288To be fair, this exact thread happened about a week and a half ago.I know, because I posted EXACTLY the same Phanto image in it.It is, however, awesome.
>>2288288Its not a discussion though. Its pretend. Pretending there is a good game like this instead of playing or making one. We're two steps away from DERP DERP I HAVE A GIANT COCK AND BITCHES LOVE IT
>>2288304The R-11B Peace Maker's Lockon Wave Cannon is just much BS if not worse because of the Force Pod but it does require a charge turn to work though.
Hey guise. Would you reccomend me if I get the Bowser's kids kit and a Koopatrooper codex?
HQ: General Pepper w/ ROB Bodyguard and 10 Cornerian TroopersTroops: 2x12 Cornerian TroopersVeterans:(All in Arwings and Wolfen respectively)Mercenary Star Fox Team (sans Slippy, plus Peppy Hare)Mercenary Star Wolf TeamHeavy Support: Landmaster Team led by SlippyMy team costs a fuckton because of all the hero units, and the "rival faction" mercenary rules for Star Fox and Wolf have me keep them on other sides of the board, but DAMN this group makes shit explode.I stuck Slippy in a landmaster to counter his horrible piloting score and keep him stationary. He's unstoppable with an enhanced shield and his mechanic ability. Only downside is that my mercs can't tell how many wounds an enemy has left, but that doesn't really matter with a successful "mind feel" check from Krystal. For Star Fox anyways, Star Wolf gets screwed on that one sometimes.
>>2288302It looks amazing until you realize that it doesn't have that many models in it. Two ranks of each class, alternate paintjobs for RED/BLU, then Dispenser, Sentry, Teleporter, and those semi-spiffy Ammo/Health Packs and Control Points.
>>2288311I could get an IRC chat going if anyone wants to actually start writing up mechanics.
>>2288317at first I thought the same, but we've been promised a LOAD of sculpts for each unit, and new weapons every so often, so it's got potential
>>2288317But the alternate weapon and wargear loadout book looks to make it a lot more variable.I for one am liking the backburner alternate loadout for pyro.
>>2288311We're talking to each other, that constitutes an discussion.And would a "LUL BLOODY PATH IS DUMB" thread be much better? Or a "HOW DO I MAKE TAU COOL" one?This might not be the best thread ever, but it's decent enough.
>>2288311DERP DERP I HAVE A GIANT COCK AND BITCHES LOVE IT.It's a bit of fun, and it doesn't happen that often. If you've not gathered by now that 99% of fa/tg/uys are too lazy and/or butthurt to atually create something, then... I don't know. Continue on in ignorance or something. The people in this thread continue to bump it up to the top of the 1st page in the vain hope that someone creative will appear and deliver to us delicious creativity.But then given that anyone that actually does anything here is universally derided within a week, that's unlikely to happen.OH YES /tg/, I JUST WENT THERE.
My army?1,000 Bronto Burts.
God, anyone remember the old exploit with mario armies, where you could use the multi-jump ability, a green turtle shell, and terrain to get basically infinity victory points. It was fun when we first figured it out, but got old really fast.
>>2288324Too bad they axed the +50 Health.
>>2288323That's true. Most classes have a lot of great poses, especially the Pyro. I really appreciate them including red/orange translucent flames in the Kit and Pre-Painted versions instead of just cheaping out and making them opaque.
>>2288333So funny when people found it.
>>2288335It had to go.
>>2288315You have to have a certain mind set when you use it. It's a lot of fun, but it's not going to like be pure ease for most things like a Megaman or Wiley list would be.
>>2288333Chaining turtle shell hits still works like a charm, though. Equipping Mario with one from the beginning and watching him mow down 10 METs or Goombas first turn is still pretty damn funny.
>>2288335I always preferred poofpyros anyway.Suprise countering a MAGET or demonigger army never gets old.
>>2288336The Taunt poses are nice too. I admit I do like the Soldier's Shovel bang one
>>2288311Tabletop gaming is nothing but pretend. This thread is actually a roleplaying game.
Seriously, folks. Do we wanna start writing mechanics over IRC? I'll start a channel.
>>2288328Eh, I fucked around and posted a few koopas last thread inspired by Gobbos in Fantasy. But, it's summer. These threads won't get anything done for a few more months. Not until the kids go back to school.
>>2288358I'd love to but it's 2AM and I'm off to bed.leave an address and I'll check it when/if I wake up.
>>2288358I'm up for it if we keep it to mario.
>>2288328You think this is just a joke? Give me a few more days; once again /tg/ will be known as the board the gets shit done.
>>2288328So basically you're going to huddle in front of your monitor PRETENDING to enjoy a fictional game instead of doing anything.Fuck thats sad. Also, IRC guy, I'm tempted.
>>2288358Why ruin everybody's fun? Actual games with actual rules lead to actual bitching and skub contests. No point in the long run.
>>2288321DO ITDO IT NOWWWWWW
Rate it please:Curly (Booster v0.8, Bubbler)2 Rabils4 Basus3 Mannans to guard objectives10 Beetles for swarm attack bonus1 Chinfish for lulz (the health drop is nice too)
>>2288321Mechanics:Every character has a speed a number of hit points and several special abilities. You may move each unit up to its speed and/or use one special ability each turn.Now we just come up with shittons of special abilities to make the game complicated and we're done.
>>2288358Eh, IRC mechanics discussions are never a good idea. Creation by committee, etc.
>>2288365The only thing /tg/ finishes is deep-fried pizza's and bad fan-fiction. Your quest is hopeless.
>>2288321Do it. I don't really like wargames since I'm not a boardgames kind of person (i like storytelling and gay creative shit more than tactical challenges, which is why I'm almost an uncouth idiot and not any good at chess), but I'm all for joining in the braintrust session for the lulz.
#arcadia on irc.thisisnotatrueending.com. Move out, fa/tg/uys! We've got shit to get done!
>>2288387Hopeless causes to do cool things are my specialty. It's #Arcadia, by the way. My mistake earlier.
>>2288376Using any Cave Story champion with either of the boosters is a waste of points when you could get Misery.Also, Skeletons are powerful as fuck. You need a few of them.Other than that, pretty good army there.

behold content
>>2288465I'm assuming you paid for the 'Good Graces of the Emperor' judging by the Sardaukar...A Fremen Horde wil probably chew that army to pieces if they have paid for the 'Home Turf' ability, thereby neutralizing the shields.
>>2288485This isn't really "content".
>>2288202I know what I'm doing. Trust me.
>>2288465Also, you misspelled plazknives/swords in the HQ section.
So yeah, I picked up that new faction, "Cover" or "Covenant" or something like that.1 Councilor Elite (w/ Beam Sniper)6 Hunters (Assault Cannon Upgrade)10 Ultra Elites (w/ carbines)20 Grunts (w/ Needlers)5 Grunts (w/ plasma turrets)5 Grunts (w/ Fuel Rod Guns)What's /tg/ think?
Most people don't care for them, but I like playing a Spacing Guild Security force every so often. O f course, you have to take more than one navigator to get the most out of their 'Threads of Time' ability, and yes, it gets expensive, but having the re-rolls helps immensley, especially against a Tleilaxu warband (GODDAMNED FACE DANCERS!!! DX)
great unit or greatest unit ever?
>>2288564That actually works pretty well, just hope your opponent didn't buy any Atreides, or God forbid if they bought 'Genes of Siona'.
>>2288567Do you know how many times my HQ has been dropped in one shot because some faggot did the old "Fly up and turn into a statue" trick? Let me put it this way:There's a reason why I use a Snow Wood list from Mother 2 now.
1 Ash Ketchum (Boulder Badge, Cascade Badge, Rainbow Badge)4 Pikachu6 Pidgeotto3 Steelix7 Dragonite2 AlakazamThinking of dumping a Steelix and a Pikachu or three Dragonites for another Alakazam. Thoughts?
>>2288551It's criminal how cheap those units are.
Protip:1 Duncan Idaho w/ 'Unlocked Lifetimes'+Unarmed > 20~ Face Dancers w/ Plazknives.Only if you play skirmish, though.
>>2288590Thanks to Diamond and Pearl, Dragonites almost aren't worth it. Ice is so prevalent now, you'll be rocked quickly.
>>2288590Drop the Dragonites
Welll, we've decided on a square based grid, speed grades for turns, 2d6+attack vs evasion for combat resolution, hp, speed grade, movement type and distance, attack, and evasion for our stats, along with a few other misc things. Come to #arcadia if you want to throw in your 2 cents on this.

I need a little help with my list.Dry BowserAngry Sun5 Hammer Brother6 Lakitu6 Dry BonesI really like Dry Bones, but they are a bad fit for this army. The 6 Lakitus should be enough to reinforce the frontlines once they get going, so I know I should use something more expendable. But what? Do I just load up on goombas?(Also, King Boo is less expensive than Dry Bowser and not much worse, is it worth it to get more Lakitu?)

>>2288629Oh, you must be that motherfucker who cheesed out a BS win over my Sardaukar legions.
>>2288628Your "rules" will not truly encompass the awesome which we have created. All you will do is try to trap the awesome in a box, and it will flee beyond our grasp.Understand: What you are trying to do is going to kill the magic forever.
>>2288590ASH LACKS A BERSERK TAGIt's fucking gold.
>>2288646Killing magic and reanimating kittens is what /tg/ nazi science is all about.
>>2288646speaking of boxes.How's my list? 10 METAL BOXES2 METAL BOXES with bigass guns1 METAL BOX FULL OF METALI was hoping to go for an all armored army, but the new edition kinda fucked them over. Should I drop 3-4 of the METAL BOXES and replace them with a few units of Box Carriers?
>>2288629Paul Atreides is a total mary sue. srsly he's a mentat, kwisatz haderach, fedaykin all in one?
>>2288646Same line of thought that says hentai is better than ever having a girlfriend. Moving on, we're just about done with the system, and we need to start Statting units and armies. So everyone, this is your time. Come to arcadia and MAKE the magic, not think about what it MIGHT be.
>>2288646Understand: What you are doing is gay.
Is it legal to attach Miles Teg to a Bene Gesserit Security Group being used by a Corrino Army? It's all I need to be completely unstopable!!!
>>2288675>Same line of thought that says ever having a girlfriend is better than hentai.Fixed that for you.
>>2288669bullshit. he's a versatile hero and his point cost is high enough to balance it out. read the Atreides codex for once.
I've got 300pts of Leadhead Splicers w/ Revolvers, a 440pt Saternine dispatch, and a Rosie type Big Daddy, is this enough to survive the preprinted Escape from Arcadia scenario?
30 x Civil Protection30 x Manhacks20 x Overwatch3 x Gunships8 x StridersShould I sub out the Gunships for lots of Hunters? I'm trying to keep a City 17 theme, so I might drop the Striders for some APCs.

>>2288679And making up rules for internet calvinball isn't even more gay somehow?
/tg/ is now STRIVING to fail? Wow.
>>2288719I have strove, but I am not graduation?
I play my Death Star Army. First round, my Death Star Charges. My Star Destroyers move to screen. Sensor networks attempt to locate my opponent. Notices movement during enemy turn. Next turn, the Death Star fires. I win.
>>2288709How the FUCK do you have 8 striders? They're each a heavy choice, that's max 3.
>>2288743Squads of 3.
>>2288713I know a guy who plays an all-medusa head list. He just parks them all in front of a pit and waits for the other guy to try and hop over. Knocks em into the pit every fucking time, not even a cape mario can get across, most annoying list ever.
I know a guy who plays real games with real people. He has fun. He enjoys things.
Fuck you guys, I have Hector with his legendary weapon, enjoy the ridiculous amount of wounds he can take.
>>2288792>> medusa headsThat shit may work against any mushroom kingdom list, but any shooty army will rape that.
>>2288805Does your friend know how to shut the fuck up when others are playing a game?
I realized what this reminds me of now: Mornington Crescent.By the way: gogo IRC guys! Although I agree that this is doomed to fail...
>>2288827I see nobody playing a game. I see people pretending to play a pretend game.
>>2288892Are the people on IRC any better for making up a game that absolutely no one will play? Their efforts will be forgotten in a few days, and the people here will still be enjoying themselves playing pretend.
>>2288855So, you would support someone actually coming up with rules for Mornington Crescent. Maybe we should get these guys on it.
>>2288907Except that goes against the entire nature of Mornington Crescent.
>>2288892I see somebody missing the fact that we're writing up the rules for an actual game in an IRC channel.
>>2288920Yes. And I'm trying to figure out why the IRCfags are sitting around thinking that their OMGREAL game doesn't fly in the face of pretty much the whole point of these threads.
>>2288921And you are gigantic faggots for doing so.
>>2288933Because they're dumbasses who should GTFO.
thread limit reached, I believe. also,>>2288892you are a giant cunt. good job totally not getting it.
>>2288962>>2288937>>2288933I don't understand what your actual problem with this whole deal is. Define it. Like, with words. Don't just try to beam your rage directly into my mind as have been doing.
>>2288983Look, what you're doing is coming up with rules for Calvinball. You're writing a rulebook for Mornington Crescent. What makes these threads fun is the making up of batshit insane rules that would never work in a sane game. Then you unholy love-children of /v/irgins and fa/tg/uys show up and pretty much decide that you want to come up with rules to pretend to run these armies. All I'm saying is that you're missing the point.
>>2288983Seconding >>2289010It's the fact that you're trying to create rules for something that wasn't designed to have rules in the first place. It ruins the idea behind it.
>>2289053It doesn't really ruin the idea since no one is going to pay attention to their rules anyway. Let them have their anal-retentive fun and then everyone can go back to the game.
