    For me personally, unless you are going to need it for a fight, maps aren't worth it and almost always destroy creativity. Everyone focuses on the token and map and stops thinking about the scene in a three dimensional space. And as far as LoS blocking maps with real time lighting; at that...

    I was gifted three commander decks a few months ago and have been trying the local game shops as they have been opening up. Attendance has steadily been climbing(no shit) and according to the shop owners sales have been very steady for the last few non gimmicky/ crossover sets. I think people...

    Yup. I had a house 4 years ago but got out of that when... (see the girls that broke your heart thread.) I have been renting and saving for the last 4 years and finally decided to get off my ass and jump back in to the game.

    That last paragraph describes me. I am going with a 2 unit converted farmhouse. The rental income will be 1k per month, current tenant only uses it as an office during the day. Not there nights and weekends. I had to go 20 minutes west from work to find a decent place that wasn't horribly...

    El Salvador making bitcoin legal tender allows the cartels and gangs to spend their money with fewer steps. El Salvador will become a clearing house for illegal activity even more than it already is. All that crap about doing it for the little guy is narcissistic bullshit with a hint of truth...

    Best idea for designing a house is don't. Pick an existing design that is as close to what you want as you can get and then make as few changes as possible to achieve whatever additional desires you may have. At least you're starting with a good basis for a house before going off the rails.

    Had my offer accepted last Friday, did the inspection yesterday. It's a 100+ year old farmhouse that's been updated. Needs a new roof and some better vapor barriers in the crawl spaces, but I knew that going in. Electrical is sound and plumbing is brand new. It has a separate second floor...

    I remember my favorite fleet was a bunch of small carriers and tempests. Carriers had long range missiles and fighters/ torpedo bombers. I used the tempests with rapid fire energy weapons to take down shields on bigger targets just before a bombing run would hit. It was just an angry swarm of...

    Drizzt Do'urden is the DnD equivalent of sheriff Bart from blazing saddles. Of course the Shoshul Jushtish War-reee-ers were going to run it.

    I have nothing of value to add to this thread, but I do think it's funny that the "to the moon" reaction shows a shuttle launch. Shuttles which only ever made it into orbit, experienced catastrophic failures and crashes on multiple occasions and have since been replaced with more efficient and...

    Played a one shot Sunday that might keep going. Rolled the character race/class/background. Ended up with a rock gnome, barbarian outlander background, that was literally raised by wolves. Rolled for is name on a Orc name generator and got Brug. He's basically feral with sharp filed teeth...

    Well if it's an island we're buying, hopefully in the Caribbean, then we should name it "Fuegos del Cielo". We could fly the wealthy and powerful from around the world to the island where they would be lead down into a secret underground bunker to witness a theatrical re-imagining of the...

    The Expanse

    Least episode of this season was a stark reminder as to just how slow this season was. It felt like the last half was close ups of naomi's spittle. Like a quarter of the big events happen in the last 3 minutes. I haven't read the books, but I know naomi is one of those annoying characters that...

    Fischl phase 4 talent is crazy good for teams that can stack electro elemental reactions. There is a pretty ridiculous combination that simply utilizes fischl dropping oz and then having sucrose spam normal attacks for swirl reactions that each trigger the, 80% of fischl's attack, electro...

    I think this season is ok. I definitely prefer the first 3 seasons. Season 4 was a real dud, so much so that I am fine with no more alien crap for now. This season definitely is lacking an overall hook though. It's just people being various shades of shitty and plowing through despite...

    The Boys

    They tried making the source material relevant by turning it into a thin veneer for modern politics. Stormfront is a not so exaggerated version of the modern right as conceptualized by the modern left. The writers actually thought this was clever and would make the show better. The reason...

    Definitely not excited about the next season. Season 1 was a fresh take on superheroes, season 2 was a hot mess. The sjw stuff was laughably bad and a lot of character reactions felt incredibly forced whenever any of that stuff came up. In the last episode when they showed the little...

    You can run Liyue now. I did that to grab ascension material for chongyun. As for leveling characters, just level the ones you use until you have enough hp to not die and then wait. Sitting on level caps can be a waste of exp. But the amount you get is so tiny that you could clear large areas...

    I just hit AR20 last night and finished level 3 of the spiral abyss to get a xiangling dupe. My main combo right now for clearing stuff is fischl dropping her bird into chongyun doing his spirit blade frost circle and then just doing the claymore charge attack to constantly whirlwind things...

    Look at Empire running around building deathstars, and planet killers and super star destroyers like chumps. Although as it turns out it's not the ship going into hyperspace that causes the damage, it's the weight of the character being sacrificed that does it. You need to have had a minimum...

    So I just stayed playing this last night. It's been great so far. Playing on hard and combat feels really sweet. Flying jump kicks into a group of mongos and then quick stepping back just to lunge back into the first mook that tries to close the distance is great. Dancing between being...

    I don't think the majority of dms play their monsters very well. Most encounters occur in flat open rooms or fields with unobstructed views. The monster mindlessly attacks one player after another closing into melee range and sitting there until dead. Most monsters are complete pushovers when...

    The key to solo interception missions is to simply not fight anything. The mission won't start until you capture your first point. After that just bullet jump your way from point to point retaking the ones the enemy grab. You can move between points much faster than the enemy and will continue...
