Somewhat good news, I hadn't checked in a while but they're still working on actual game progression bugs instead of combatquote:Patch ETA They also updated their plans for the following patches quote:Better sorting, hiding unusuable options, and better recommendations in the level up menu; Not sure how they would fix Ulfar, as the main issue seems to be map design does not account for a 2x2 companion.

I honestly had little issue with Ulfar on hard. Cautious approach arch militant was enough and he can ramp up damage same way Argenta does. He just needs a few better preexisting talents (like fired up or faster reload instead of Second skin).

hopefully they fix type sorting because as far as i can tell that does literally nothing. either that or it sorts based on the most arcane criteria known to mankind

Ulfar needs his pistols fixes to use the pistol shooting actions not the rifle ones, his charge to blow through cover and consistently use melee, to be able to kick cover, a buff to initiative (the only guy with superhuman reflexes almost always goes last lmao), to be able to use ladders or have his own jump up/down animations, more items so he has some actual choices to make, some 2h big boy astartes weapons, his weapons slots unlocked so he can dual wield if he wants. The way the game works I don't think it's actually possible to make weapons switch between 1h/2h versions... Actually I wonder if kingmaker did, if it did, the code is probably still there. E: all characters but especially ulfar need a preview of their landing spot for movement abilities

Perestroika posted:I only got into this a few days ago and got a question: is it just me or are the momentum abilities from the second tier of archetypes just kinda worse than those from the first set? The first set are versatile staples that I'm using basically all the time: Officer's extra turn is always very useful, Soldier gets a good solid bunch of extra attacks with the right weapon, and Warrior's berserker thingy offers a ludicrous amount of offensive potential. Imo The Arch militant unlockable is better than the soldier unlockable but other than that I agree with you.

If you asked me I would say just make him destroy destructible cover by moving through it. If a corrugated steel barrel is the thing blocking his 2x2 footpath for moving through somewhere that shouldn't really stop him from moving through somewhere. Alternatively just make his size relevant for the resting point when he finishes moving. Space Marines canonically make Olympic athletes look like scrubs, They should be able to vault over for maneuver past pretty much anything represented in the game world.

Operative’s heroic sucks enough that 2nd tier heroics could potentially be considered better. Are we certain that Ultar is a real Space Marine and not an ogryn in costume? The Lone Badger fucked around with this message at 02:28 on Jan 12, 2024 |

I didn't think the operative momentum action was good until I earned a free one every encounter that doesn't cost momentum. As soon as I was comparing it on its own merits versus comparing it to the officer or soldier heroic actions it suddenly looked pretty drat good.

Can the staff-based heroics be used multiple times a fight if you feed them enough momentum?

That appears to be a Pasqal thing, probably related to his nonstandard weapon setup (two two-handed slots, no alt-weapons).

Thank God they're doing story progression first, or at least making the game function. I look forward to combat fixes, but I can at least play a game with bad combat.

Ulfar is better if you use toybox to change his base class to warrior imo. Plus you can get rid of useless talents like the medium armor one. They do need to expand which melee weapons he can use. I get that his big dumb ham hands can’t pull the trigger on a normal gun, but he should be able to one hand any normal 2h weapon.

I just wish he had a higher fire rate bolter available, but while he could not move around as easily as Argenta to kill a whole map, he would simply not die to anything that survived.

The Lone Badger posted:Are we certain that Ultar is a real Space Marine and not an ogryn in costume? There's a legendary 40k PbP game where the entire party were Orks posing as Deathwatch Space Marines (appropriately called Deffwotch) and they were able to get away with it because most people haven't seen Space Marines, so they just assumed they were the genuine article when they said they were. It also helps that their superiors in the Inquisition, despite full well knowing that they were Orks, decided to play along with it because they were relatively easy to manipulate and devastatingly effective at their job of krumpin' things (and Emperor forbid that anyone in the Imperium gainsay an Inquisitor when he says that these are Real Goddamn Space Marines (TM)). Dandywalken posted:#JustHarlequinThings Pretty much. Harlequins have their own agenda that they're pursuing, but they are generally well-received by all Eldar as their agendas are usually to the benefit of their race as a whole and they are pretty entertaining to boot. They can usually cajole Eldar, Dark Eldar, and Corsairs into working together through charm alone, but it also helps that they are absurdly deadly combatants that are more than capable of murderizing people before they even know what's happening. So most Eldar just let the deadly jester do what they want lest they also end up surprisingly dead as part of a punchline. Szarrukin posted:Honestly I'm glad they didn't, Rogue Trader tabletop is borderline unplayable jankfest. I own way too many Fantasy Flight Rogue Trader books and what I would say is that it just doesn't scale anywhere near as well as this ruleset does. I wouldn't call it unplayable jank, but progression is generally non-linear (you accumulate XP and then you spend them on characteristics/advances until you reach the next 'Rank' where new ones open up) and there just aren't a lot of satisfying tactical options from turn to turn in combat. Speaking of which, combat is akin to rocket tag - weapons are very powerful and characters are generally somewhat frail, so combats are usually decided by who manages to shoot the other person in the face (or a similarly poorly-protected area) first. Subverted somewhat in Deathwatch as Space Marines are very tanky, but then you find out that stairs are the deadliest threat to Space Marines (fall damage in the WH40K RPGs, at least the ones by Fantasy Flight, is poorly written. 1d6 damage per meter fallen, armor and Toughness do not soak this damage so it goes straight to wounds which most Rogue Trader characters have in the single digits, Space Marines in the teens).

Almost finished my Unfair run, and everything has been going fine (combat-wise) until the space battle where Act 4 ends and Act 5 begins (inquisitor's forces in front of the warp gate). I think it might be literally impossible on this difficulty. By the time my turn starts my escort is dead, my ship is at 30% hull integrity, and it's on fire. This is how it plays out every single time. I'm pretty sure my ship's gear is all best-in-slot. I've finished developing all of my colonies, have all their respective bonuses. Impossible to survive past turn 3, can't even take down any of the three ships without ramming the rest of my health away. Sadly, regrettably, had to toybox it. Then I went on to bodying crons just as easily as I did on Normal. Baaaaaaalance, where is the baaaaaaalance
