Oh whoops, I meant to include that the ogre needs to have a goal and 'scenario win condition' too. That doesn't answer deaddms criticism, doesn't follow from what you were previously saying about the ogre and kiting, which in turn wasn't actually relevant to what MGuy had said about trying to make ...

Yeah, the "kite an ogre in an open field" example is what I don't want. I think the scenario, goals of parties involved is a big part in avoiding that kind of situation. I mention wargames a lot because it's Kill Team objective grabbing, hidden objectives, each side having different objec...

And yet currently response to what happens when a fighter fights a fighter remains "fighting mechanics". But no. Apparently I'm the one with the problem here. This is the first. Most basic question anyone could ask about this idea. It isn't hard to answer. And that's about the stupidest wa...

Even your vague characterisation of the answer tells us that, at the high concept level, Fighter VS Fighter is not decided as quickly as Fighter VS Archer. That is an elaboration on the high concept. If you are saying that about my shorter more succinct (it also left out the bit of his answer that ...

Yeah man a wandering thought bubble is what this thread is, if I really have something set and playable I’ll post it in that channel nobody responds in Perhaps you don't understand why your original response wowed me so much. Well. Of course you didn't. Lets try it again slowly. "The win condi...

If I reaaaally want to make that into a time consuming "player decisions decide the outcomre more than most raw stats" then something like En Garde/Ronin which I've talked about in some other threads if you search those names. If I want the game to resolve quickly then it's the usual stat...

What if the fighter is fighting a fighter.

And at that point you can claim Trump is being serious about trying to do everything ever. What with having held a public position on virtually everything, certainly a hell of a lot of things, from multiple angles. Maybe. You are overly focused on Trump. Rather than the waiting coup Republicans have...

Trump isn't particularly serious about stealing the election. He is just posturing. And the other Republicans don't really want or need for him to win, they've got what they want. Problem is your entire system is now designed at multiple levels for Republicans to steal elections. So Trump might acci...

It's a shame to triple post. But it feels like this one might be best posted before it expires. Not A Bike Race Remember those mono-bikes I based last night? I spent some time painting on skin and hair and what not this morning. Then I spent some time in the middle of the day putting on several brow...

So the starter came with two factions. Basically almost the two factions in the game I wouldn't actually pick. So for instance. This game is Spanish. And the Spanish... welll... So the Blue Faction is like "Oceania" or rather a wierd semi-colonial alliance of like the USA and India and I d...

Last time I was painting I was averaging about three guys a day. But again, my focus has always been getting painted models to tables and I'll take all sorts of short cuts to do that. Painting a group with the same colour scheme one colour at a time while they dry is one of them, and one I would rec...

And now for a stupid story that wanders off track. How I started painting some models, took some pictures and got distracted [/b] I though, hey. I might get back to finishing painting my Infinity model collection. I only have like, 40 models or something to go. At my old rate I could knock that off ...

Do you really think Biden believes in reaching across the isle? That's not the read I have on him. My read is much more cynical. He isn't reaching anywhere they aren't honorable opponents to him, they aren't even his opponents. Biden doesn't believe in parties because he believes in donors and favor...

Those are pretty good, and who is good at eyes anyway?

I've always struggled with eyes because of my shakey hands.

So shakey a group of grown adults has banned me from playing jenga type games in front of them because they find it too high stress to watch.

You can't begin to guess how exclusive that lily picture um, might?, be.

Showing that in the wrong place on the internet and I could be dealing with plant ninjas in the middle of the night.

Or at least annoying phone calls day and night.

The thing about infinity models here is that in Australia they were actual a bit cheap. Something about a good wholesale price for the resellers. Prices have crept up since the original extra low prices, but even now they are still competitive. And anyway. Buy things during sales. Like this one time...

A lot of them are infinity models, infinity models are (mostly) very pretty, but I'd say definitely use thin layers of paint on them to let their incredible detail shine through. edit: that first model is both forms of a "su-jian", a "transforming" (you just get two models you ar...

I have decided to participate in this. Even though I am almost certainly not the sort of person who would just have miniatures they had painted lying around easily at hand for a quick bad photo. I definitely wouldn't be the kind of person who happens to have one of a dozen (or several) unpainted GW ...

This seems a lot like this is founded in the "love me I'm a liberal" divide again. People really need to listen to the song and wrap their head around it. Back in the 70s in the USA people understood that liberals were not leftists or even allies of leftists, and indeed were often the wors...

as a business (no literally I'm a business, I don't know if you guys do that over there, but I AM a business) Please elaborate. Game On, fbmf I don't know how you guys deal with business entities, wages and tax. I struggle to understand how I deal with business entities, wages and tax. But I will t...

ScoMo failed to act during covid, Trump deliberately made things worse. ScoMo uses his power to give benefits to his religion, Trump uses his to attack Muslims in a way that ScoMo did not. You... what? I have flat out been telling you Morrison DID do things to make the response to covid worse. He d...

On no explicable basis. Just purely explicitly subjective not described feels. Sure. That's legit.

I have a hard time believing that Australian PM Scott Morrison is anywhere near as bad as Trump. He literally did a whole bunch of things to mimick, or sometimes follow the instructions of Trump. This brings a lot of the Trump bad in by very direct means. And when he doesn't do that he is a true be...

I'm really curious what part of that you imagine to be the fault of the Democrats . I'm telling you we had the same issues with our ruling party. And our opposition party used what power it had to force a better response. I'm telling you, your opposition party. Is, broken, crappy, fake. It doesn't ...
