Games Workshop is the company that is best known for producing the Warhammer 40K miniatures games, but before their excursion into the grimmest and darkest future, they made Warhammer Fantasy, which has continued plodding along under the shadow of its younger brother. Just recently, GW announced they were rebooting the Fantasy setting, and everything was going to change forever with the new edition. It is... well... there are all sorts of crazy monkey-cheese rules, like if you pretend to ride an invisible horse, you can reroll some of your dice. If you have a mustache that's bigger than your opponent's, your hero character gets a bonus. If you yell nonsense at the top of your lungs, your units can charge further. This isn't a joke, this is the official ruleset encouraging its players to be as obnoxious as possible during games. I can only imagine what the stores that host these games are going to look like, or how long it takes before all this nonsense is banned by the various shops these games are played in. To prove I'm not joking:  Oh, and also, there are no rules for the 'point cost' of the various units. You can just put as many little miniatures on the table as you want, and there's no kind of balance to control for that. Just give as much money to GW as you can spare, and you'll win! Unless you're playing against somebody who has even more disposable income and even less sense. From the thread in Traditional Games: Cyclomatic posted:Had a discussion about AoS, and they were basically saying "well, you just have to discuss the game before you play it. It isn't a tournament game or blind pickup game". I've never even played, but watching this whole meltdown unfold over in TG has been absolutely delicious. EDIT: A few more for the road

pookel posted:So I asked my ex about that WH Fantasy thing and he says he's seen the rules and talked to the local players who have read them (and are excited) and there's none of that monkeycheese bullshit in there. Googling some phrases quoted here led me to this thread and to 1d4chan, and nothing else. So I'm going to say it's probably fake. All from the official rules page at http://www.games-workshop.com/en-NZ/age-of-sigmar-compendiums From the Demons of Chaos compendium: p.29 The Mask of Slaanesh: The Endless Dance: If you are dancing while rolling the dice for the Masque’s attacks in the combat phase, you can reroll any failed hit rolls. If, at any point, you can coerce your opponent to join in, you can re-roll any failed wound rolls as well. From the Orks Compendium: p. 8 Waaagh! Drummer Models in this unit may be Waaagh! Drummers. You can add 2 to the charge rolls of a unit that includes any Waaagh! Drummers, but only if you bellow ‘Waaagh!’ when rolling the dice. From the Vampire Counts Compendium: p.9 One Bat Short of a Belfry: Konrad is a violent lunatic, and his temper does little to help his stretched sanity. If, during your hero phase, you talk to Konrad von Carstein, you can re-roll all hit rolls of 1 for him until your next hero phase. If Konrad von Carstein talks back to you, re-roll all failed hit rolls instead. Yep, they're all real.

grittyreboot posted:My friends swear by Blue Apron. It gives them a reason to try recipes they never would've thought of. If they really like one they save the recipe and make it on their own later. There really is a better solution to this problem.

Tagichatn posted:Liminal States was really cool. It was definitely good, but it really needed another pass-through or two by the editor. Near the end you've got that building-sized thing that comes out of the pit, as the helicopter's taking off, which is mentioned once and never brought up again.
