Was that a Fat Albert or Whats Happenin’ ‘Heyheyhey’

Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight. WAHTS IN THE BAHOXX!!!!!!?!

How hard is it? That wasn’t a set up for a joke no? Plagiarism you say? Playgiarism?

(1) What are the right reasons? Where is the cut off point? 15 points.

(2) But why does it suffer? Is there a fundamental thing that games designers miss the point of when doing it? Can you give a good example of a developer that plays to the strengths and avoids the weaknesses? 15 points.

(3) 15 points. Do you think it is a good thing like AoS where a game does not have as many tokens and accessories as say, X-Wing? 15 points

Develop your point on Guildhall

10 points for the pledge. Show off a WIP if you want, its no biggie.

What minis did you get?

Clan wat, what is that?

Tell us more about the Dragon Clan you speak of.

Sounds like you had a profitable and productive day. Sounds like you have a lot of balls in the air.

1: 10 points for the answer. The reason I thought of it and posted it up is because Massive Darkness was hard and we lost, so it got me going all Phil O’Sophical.

2: 10 points, yeah, video games are a tough one, this seems to be a general consensus on it.

3: I happened to love putting down focus tokens, felt awesome. You give a detailed, well thought out answer, 20 points.

Electric six were so good!

10 points for responses to others.

I am humbled by your presents good sir!

*rolls out the red carpet*

*realises its green*

That ain’t right… @limburger what did you do to this thing!!! 😉 😀

Anyway, you really are a sleeping giant with the rebasing project eh? Fair dues! Bit of a sleeping giant no?

Sounds like you had a good night. You did the walk of shame before anyone woke up to do some warhammmer? That’s awesome 🙂

Lizard people just sounds more politically correct.

Thanks for the compliment on the questions! They all stem from being royal pee’d off at just about losing my first game of Massive Darkness, hahahahaha. I love the minis and gameplay mechanic. I dunno about the game yet, its kind of like being in love with someone who treats you like crap, been there haha. Toxic but intoxicating.

(1) That makes perfect sense. Some of my best games at 40k tournaments are when I have been kicked royally in the butt but by a themed army by a player who did a beautiful job crafting it, was not waac and came very close. 10 points/

(2) I think if a good game was designed from the ground up and then skinned at the last minute with a game it might work. Kingdom Hearts Talisman is something I have my eye on. Simpler though. 10 points.

(3) 15 points. I kind of miss the days where everything you needed was in a single codex book. X Wing, a game I love, annoys me with focus, target locks. Etc etc etc. But then again I have a fickle, impatient and mercurial personality at times, lol.

Anyway, time to get stuck into these bases.

Lost city style is great. You could do a family like the Dinoaur Puppets TV show as objective markers. Sexy bases. And as for the coins beneath them that’s genius, you have added both weight and value to the models.

10 points for 3d printing, 10 for the pics on page 1. Schleich figures looking good. That’s a lot of bases. Walls are awesome. 30 points. I look forward to seeing more of your bits 😉

I remember Justin on the weekender ages back saying “This War of Mine” was good. Depressing, but it makes you feel, eh? Movie to video games have always been cursed. But Detective Pikachu does a good job! 15 points

@limburger @warzan Moba games on tabletop are this, but from a game design perspective:
