Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.

    bitches don't know about my kicks.

    it is legit not easy to kick that fast

    I don't understand how she's scooting forward on one foot.

    It is extremely easy to generate forward momentum assuming you can kick hard enough

    She's pretty clearly sidling using the bottom leg.

    It's a more advanced version of mouse guard

    Saying you would rather play 4th seems quite odd

    The game is meant to be a crawler, but its meant to be about the same difficult decision making that all other BW games are

    I am about to take it to the god damned Huns now

    @desc

    Is this Ace Patrol?

    I was just looking at that on iPad.

    To go with Eclipse and Leviathan Warships.

    blud it is super fun so far

    it's Wings of War on hexes

    also I am not sure if WWI was actually this multi-gendered and multi-racial but I enjoy the little crew and picking skills for pilots.

    my main leader has taken a lot of spins and a full flip, while my guy who started with crack shot is taking little slip maneuvers to shimmy up behind planes and rock his high attack percentages.

    make it turn based and let me level up a squad of guys and you already have me.

    She's rotating her leg and alternating her weight between heel and ball of her foot.

    that's the point. When dungeon crawling I want interesting tactics and combat since that is the focus. Mousegaurd combat is a step up from some systems in how streamlined it is but it is basically taking the track of "we can't / wont make combat interesting in and of itself so we will make it less of a burden than most games". That's great in a setting where combat isn't the focus.

    But I'd rather have 4e and interesting tactics in a dungeon crawl.
    What you think "makes sense" has nothing to do with reality. It just has to do with your life experience. And your life experience may only be a small smidgen of reality. Possibly even a distorted account of reality at that. So what this means is that, beginning in the 20th century as our means of decoding nature became more and more powerful, we started realizing our common sense is no longer a tool to pass judgment on whether or not a scientific theory is correct. - Neil Degrasse Tyson

    BW games are good

    Granted, they are not for everyone

    They scratch the itch they are aiming for better than any other, IMO

    In most games you never have to progress beyond choosing a class and picking a weapon in terms of character development

    Development is at the core of these systems, and if you are actually interested in that, like I said, nothing does it better, zzimo

    My first thought is that encumbrance rules are the first thing I ignore unless they are being abused.
    There's no living with a killing. There's no goin' back from one. Right or wrong, it's a brand... a brand sticks. There's no goin' back. Now you run on home to your mother and tell her... tell her everything's alright. And there aren't any more guns in the valley.

    Okay

    I guess that's one way to look at it

    I mean, it's fundamentally wrong

    But you can have an opinion

    Endless Ocean did not sound fun to me. From what I've pieced together, it's like driving around in a Grand Theft Auto game with no missions, no pedestrians, and no weapons - just exploring reefs and waving at passing sea turtles.

    Sure

    Your criticism of the game shows a lack if understanding of the system. Combat, is not, as you said, more streamlined. Every action interacts with the other actions in its own way, which requires quite a bit of system mastery.

    So, to say you want tactics and dismiss this system as being base ignores the deep strategic game of scripting and predicting.
