DF Modding / Re: [MODDING] 0.44.x questions thread
« on: June 29, 2018, 02:42:28 am »
What happens if you have a reanimation process like the necromancer one but without Opposed to Life in Fortress mode? Do the reanimated creatures join your civ?

I don't suppose you're ever going to update this, Deon? Or perhaps someone to make a new version for the current DF?

DF Modding / Essential DF for 44.10?
« on: June 28, 2018, 09:54:02 am »
Has anyone created anything similar to Essential DF by Deon for 44.10? This, essentially: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=133456.0

A streamlining mod that removes a lot of the bloat would be absolutely exceptional.

Nuke CalArts in general.

In truth, though, the destruction of any concept of objective skill in art is something that has been going on for almost a century now. Now art should be about "the artist's feelings" instead of the artist trying to evoke feelings (through skill or anything else) in the observer. Post-modernism is a cancer that needs to be excised from the art community. Read Explaining Postmodernism for information on it: http://www.stephenhicks.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/ep-ee-2014-printing.pdf

Well, if you want to convince us that you're not here exclusively to advertise for something, why not actually participate in the thread? For example, what are your thoughts on the "WH/WH40K for kids" thing that GW is apparently trying to launch? What do you think about the latest advancements of the storyline? Or, since you you're apparently into the actual tabletop, why not show us some pictures of your collection?

There's been edgy kid's TV shows. Whether this will be the same will depend on what GW does. Personally, I'm taking it as in-universe pulp serial propaganda directed at kids.

What's the latest advancement? I'm not massively into 40k post-8th, I've shifted myself over to AoS. I had a lot of interest at the start of this year when they seemed to be teasing some cool xenos force but then it was just more marines but this time gold coloured.

He's not perfect for a lot of reasons, but I'm really happy with him. First big model I've ever done.

Bump! We've hit 300 members and we are now, officially, the largest Wargaming Discord that I know of.

We're also running a giveaway sponsored by Northstar miniatures for a set of their plastic figures.

Soliciting is not allowed on these forums, btw.

Solicitation is trying to sell a product. I'm trying to get you guys to join my free Discord with the incentive of a free giveaway. Also, it's pretty good regardless of that.

I run a Wargaming server here. We've just got past the 300 people mark earlier today (always 50+ online at a time).

We're running a giveaway for a set of plastic Frostgrave soldiers donated by Northstar miniatures. If any of you are interested (they're pretty good for 40k kitbashes) then join and look in the announcements channel there.

Other Games / Dauntless - Monster Hunter on PC [Open Beta May 24th]
« on: May 12, 2018, 08:35:42 am »
Link: https://playdauntless.com/

Dauntless is basically a Monster Hunter game but for PC and with a highly stylised graphical style. On May 24th it's heading into open beta and they're doing a sale on all their Founder's packs running up to that. It's free-to-play at the open beta stage.

I'm wondering if anyone else is interested or is interested in making a Bay 12 Games group to slay a bunch of monsters?

Wargaming Discord Link

Just figured this would be a good thread to run.

What are you building? What are you painting? What are you playing?

I'm putting together a force for Rogue Stars made up of old Gretchin models.

Hey, guys, I run a generic wargaming Discord here: https://discord.gg/T5sNNyu

We've got a big variety of wargamers.

Goatbird space wizard.

Swapped out his head and the top of his staff to make him less glitzy than normal. I think it makes him look a lot more savage and primal.

Actually originally planned to keep his head and just change the horns, but I mangled the connections on the armour/horns that slot into the original jaw and wound up just chopping his whole head off and fixing on a new one with some greenstuff. Not the neatest job, but it's hidden from all the important angles.

That looks really good. I like the tattoos.

Before I write up a character sheet, I was curious if there were any particular flavor you would prefer.

I think the core concepts I've narrowed myself down to is "Descendants of  of a misplaced Military Platoon" or "people who live next to a river."

"People who live next to a river" is probably better suited and I'd much prefer it. We're talking long long before the invention of any really standardised military.

Hm, I can't say I have good feelings about this system but sure, I'll give it a try.

Excellent! First person!

FATE isn't perfect by any stretch, but it's suited to weirder concepts (like a bunch of paleolithic tribes).

I should've mentioned that the second and third aspects are "empty" for now. They're to be filled with whatever you choose to put in there later on. I think your cultist and dwellers thing can slot quite nicely into High Concept (which can be invoked like Aspects can).

I might wirte up an application later,count me as posting to watch.

Hope you do join in.
