Idk how easy they are to get in the states but I just got Bearguy P and Panda Guy gundams. There's also cat and dog guys which are also really cute and might be more interesting to (non-man)children.

I will probably get a snowspeeder sometime. I really want a Y-wing but it looks like they're sold out everywhere here where I'm on vacation. They're about half the US price for the kits. It's odd that an older release still be stocked but I can see why the Y wing would be incredibly popular. The engine cap can even be left off to see the amazing detail inside.

I expected that the people in this thread, out of anyone in this forum, were the types to try to set fire to something or blow your hands off during New Years. Mortars are as dangerous as always. Like hot drat I'm disappointed Moola hasn't posted about his annual compilation video of sticking fireworks up his bum yet.

Miniatures game. Imperial assault got FFG in hot water because they came too close to a board game something or other. Hasbro is the only company allowed to make Star Wars board games.

Saint Drogo posted:welp, doesn't sound like they're doing anything about the rules bloat and enormous codex/rulebooks tax for new and returning players. I guess all they learned from Sigmar is that nerds dislike shouting FOR THE LADY or cramming bloodletters up their assholes for a +1 hit bonus but love points and loving space marines. The tragedy is the reality is the complete opposite. Ask Moola about the blood letters and I love tipping my hat to lady passerby while playing Brets.

The argument for 40k being great because people could make their armies' backgrounds fit anywhere in the setting would be more palatable if every annoying Waagh-shouting player didn't actively make the universe smaller. I always made my army's background focus on them being a normal division that sits in a base and maybe gets deployed from time to time. It was terminal lance. The OC-do-not-steal backgrounds that talked about people's armies being in the forefront of the fiction were aggressively terrible. GW of course cultivated this by their annual armies on parade event which I assume still continues. Guess that's why I also hated the Star Wars EU and the authors' incessant need to have their characters interacting with the movie characters.

As far as I know there weren't just two expunged first founding legions in 40k, but easily a thousand. And perhaps 100 times that many successor chapters. And while important bits of 40k history were written like legends, they really skimped out on the Betrayal aboard that one ship where the now-chaos marine stabbed the emperor. I've heard at least 30 people talk about how their marines were actually on that ship, and that's just a small sample, so that ship was inconceivably larger than Noah's Ark!

I'm actually glad X wing just had you use named pilots because if it was all generics with abilities, you can be damned sure that Luke Skywalker flew with at least 5000 pilot buddies in his short piloting stint as Rogue Leader.

Leperflesh posted:My memory was that there were supposed to be (exactly?) 1000 chapters of Space Marines in the Imperium. GW has never even named more than maybe 200 of them, so that leaves enough that no gamer who ever made up their own chapter could ever be straight-up contradicted by the canon. Unfortunately, GW went down a modeling path of gradually eliminating generic space marine models - used to be you mostly could only buy chapter-agnostic little dudes, plus a smattering of special characters etc. from various factions. But then in the 1990s, more and more chapter-specific models started to proliferate, encouraging players to play one of the canonical chapters instead of making up their own. These days I have no idea if it's even possible to buy official GW models of a complete fieldable space marine army containing no chapter-specific models?

I think an over abundance codex "splatbooks" are a reasonable definition of bloat even if you didn't need to use them all. You didn't need many, if at all, splatbooks to play D&D 3.5 either.

The Tarzan the Infinite soliloquy at the end of Act 2 is really good. Ironically, it ends with him crying to the heavens that Necrons will never truly die while the audience knows about the reduction in Necron UPCs.

Mantic needs Angel Giraldez painting NMM and cel shaded minis for them. Their models are similar to Infinity's flat surfaces. Then everyone like me will be disappointed in our paint jobs because we're not as good at blending.

I spent 8 hours yesterday learning and playing forbidden stars with my friends. We did it because my friend found it for $50 and my other friends "wanted to play a warhammer game." They've assembled and painted some models and know about the fiction. I told them how wrong they were but said I'll explain it in the end. It was a great game and we left satisfied. I then explained to them how different it would be had it been a GW 40k product (especially on the finer qualities of warlord traits) and how they got to play a good warhams game before the FFG/GW split.
