Just as a side thought about some posts from the last thread, I've met a lof of former staff from companies like GW, Mantic, Warlord etc at cons and they all have good things to say and think working there was a great experience.
Except the guys I had met that used to work for PP. Every single one, all of them, fucking despise that place.
That alone kept me from going to work there when I was offered a position.
Matthew Brown
first for not being a privateer press employee
please buy more gargossals and all our new circle models next month
Blake Wilson
So something to notice is that those companies you mentioned are UK companies, while PP is a Left Coast USA company.
Oliver Robinson
well clearly user was considering running their UK branch head office and isn't just completely full of shit, jeez!
Christian Butler
I mean that UK gaming companies aren't likely to be poisoned by the social toxicity that permeates the culture of Seattle and other left-coast cities.
I love warmahordes, I love playing it, but I know the people around me are complete liberals, and you can't exactly escape that kind of stuff in regular social settings that don't involve just playing a game.
I'm not surprised ex-employees despise working there, or in Seattle/Bellevue.
Parker Hughes
How bad of an idea is it to run f3ora with a bunch of lights? You can fire them off at p+s17(19 with incite) and spd 7. Also, do you think that f3ora solves the armor cracking problems that the flameguard theme list is bound to have in practice? And is the lack of shield guards too big of a problem to run her in that theme?
>is a Left Coast USA company. As an American, I've always heard that the east coast is the worse of the two. Especially when it comes to employment holy christ those thighs
Jack Miller
I don't know about "a bunch of lights" but I was definitely thinking about giving her a few dervishes
Flame trail on a light with parry and side step sounds hilarious to me
Jaxon Cook
It's different brands of the same shit, more or less. Hiring practices are probably similar, though the East Coast is likely worse for employment because of a much tighter population density. Boston and Seattle are roughly the same population, but Boston is half the size.
That said, there's not a lot of "diversity hires" in this industry, but you can see that most of PP is staffed by beards, thick-rimmed glasses, and ear hoops. They all likely have tattoos and Starbucks out of frame. So you better not have wrongthink if you work there.
Landon Martin
Show me spoilers for Loki you fucks
Julian Sanchez
I played against F3 with 30 Flameguard this week and have to say it's very potent if you're not prepared to deal with that many dudes. It will likely do poorly into Cygnar or any kind of mass shooting, but a lot of POW12s will crack quite some armor. And ambushing daughters are disgusting.
Nolan Thomas
So what's Trollblood's faction gimmick supposed to be? From my understanding, it is "We're really hard to kill", sorta like a Hordes version of Khador except with tons of healing instead of tons of health.
Hudson Hughes
We actually pretty much know everything about him except his animus:
This is rampant speculation, but if we get a warpwolf theme, PP has already said that the themes that came out this month "did not include unreleased models".
One could hope that the warpwolf theme if it exists wasn't released yet because it allows you to take Loki.
Sebastian Allen
GET OVER HERE
Kevin Torres
I'm no homo, but I totally would a Loki.
Justin Parker
Any more Kaya3 spoilers?
David Morris
You can field character warjacks and warbeasts in a theme with the appropriate bonded caster/lock
Caleb Torres
You can. But also, the Tharn force lets you take Ghetorix with anyone.
Blake Ramirez
So I'm new to the game, and I just want to confirm something. Warlocks start the game with zero fury right? I can't seem to find anything in the rulebook to say otherwise.
I've speculated on some stats, but other than that, SPOILERS WHEN?
Nathaniel Turner
Primal, 70-1:
All warlocks have the following special rules in common...
>Fury Manipulation "This model has a Fury stat (FURY) and begins the game with a number of fury points equal to its FURY."
Ryan Adams
Oh well I guess I have brain problems!
Nicholas Baker
Go back to The_Donald, centipede
Brody Reyes
I don't need to repost /pol/ for internet points, m80. :^)
I can dislike being told to call obvious men in wigs "women" under threat of being kicked out of a con, while playing in a local store that won't kick you out because you have a playmat with a female on it.
Isaac Walker
>:^) No, this is what makes you scum. The rest just makes you a bigot
Josiah Bell
Nobody cares.
Michael Price
>puts this much effort into shrieking about imaginary sjws >Posts "Nobody cares" when mocked on it
LOL I TROL U
Jaxon Taylor
Yeah, but you can tell now that he's trolling so don't feed him
Julian Rogers
Anyway, how about dat Hydra, eh?
Andrew King
They're not imaginary, if you play in the Portland/Vancouver or Seattle/Bellevue area.
Benjamin Garcia
DISGUSTING FLESH HOOKS is it the model or the fingers? you decide
Julian Ross
Sorta. Them and Skorne share the "hard to kill tanky" faction spot. Trollbloods also are a synergy faction with tons of support options and group buffing .Also every trollkin or troll model has tough. Even old people, even 30+ box monsters. They are all tough and almost all on light jack bases, making line of sight a nightmare.
They like to brick.
Also their models got way worse. Just sayin'. Anyone else feel like the mauler, blitzer, and bomber all got crappy standardized models.
The old blitzer was the first warmahordes model to attract me to the game. That shit was dank.
Grayson Ramirez
It's a large creature in a sandy area so it has nubs instead of legs. Kinda neat
Chase Jenkins
It's neat. I just wish it was correctly cast. I'm not paying $120 dollarydoos for melted plastic.
Jonathan Rogers
Worked in the warehouse about a year after mk2 released. Place sucked because of the middle management.
Luke Lee
It's Wargames Factory quality. *le shrug*
Brandon Wright
Storm Raptor retains all the detail on the feathers, claws, armor, etc.
There really is no excuse. The box advertises one thing, the product is another.
Blake Bennett
Some of those feathers along the top look pretty shitty, though it could be the photo/angle.
Ryder Jones
Haven't played WarmaHordes since Mk III launched. Does Cygnar have a jack-support caster that isn't Darius yet?
Luis King
More or less. We don't have an Amon. We can't really spam heavies, but we can really make the few we take shine.
Jackson Lopez
>since Mk III launched How fast do you think they update?
Joshua Garcia
Sloan and as many Hunters as you can cram. :^)
Bentley Adams
>:^) goddamn fucking newfags
Aiden Powell
Since supposedly Mk III launched mid-last year, I'd have expected at least one new army book which I would expect to either be Khador or Cygnar would be out, and I would expect at least a new unit or something in there, or an overhaul to an old caster to make them more of a 'jack focused caster in what is supposedly a jack focused edition.
I mean I haven't played since 2/3rds of my Darius list went missing in mid-2015, so I have no fricking clue what's come out since then, and I'm basically waiting to either bite the bullet and go balls deep and pick up Convergence 'jacks/Aerogenesis or Cygnar gets a new heavy jack focused caster that isn't Darius. Or Darius2. I'm not picky.
Ryan Moore
>I'd have expected at least one new army book which I would expect to either be Khador or Cygnar would be out, and I would expect at least a new unit or something in there
You expect... poorly
Parker Fisher
It's supposed to incite rage. As stupid as it is, it seems it worked.
Juan Brown
It's a face meant to be added to facetious/trolling remarks as emphasis. It worked. :^)
Obviously, Sloan with a lot of Hunters--while technically a warjack "support" list as requested--is a semi-sarcastic answer, and should rile feelings in players who've faced it much like a colon, carat, right parenthesis in that order has riled feelings in you.
Jordan Cruz
So this is how Veeky Forums dies. Faggots Overwhelming. My life for Moooooot
Ryder Morales
Yes it is. It dies with pointless bickering and infighting. But guess what: You can do something about it. Ignore shitposters and post constructively.
Jaxson Adams
Cygnar is in March, Khador is in April.
At the least, you'll get a warjack theme force akin to Menoth's.
Joseph Morgan
>Ignore shitposters and post constructively. does not compute
Connor Powell
>anything I don't like is faggots I guess I'm a faggot for playing Una2. : ^ )
Easton Watson
>Me previously ;_; where are my cool Merc releases PP I feel starved over here >Me after doing more than zero research OH SHIT DAWG they are doing what everyone somehow perfectly predicted and giving me a Merc Caine. Okay PP I can wait.
Jaxson Parker
Now we just need a dual-faction Magnus and the circle is complete.
Lucas Lewis
Warbeasts have no tough, they never did and probably never will.
Also whelps don't have tough, counter-intuitively.
Daniel Peterson
Nothing about Skorne is tanky and hard to kill. Only one infantry unit has tough and that's the #YOLO Nihilators. Cetrati have tough but they only just gained it. Our beasts have the same DEF as Khador jacks but less ARM. Skorne is neither tanky nor hard to kill desu senpai.
Alexander Garcia
GW is a nice place to work at. Unless you value fair payment. Or free will.
Carson Morgan
If you want communistic pay practices and the ability to go get a Starbucks when you're working, PP is the place to be.
Aiden Garcia
Fuck you man I am trying my best to cosplay as poison.
You know how hard is to maintain a chub
Grayson Fisher
I onow the actual stores are a shit place to work at, but from what I've heard anything above that is usually pretty good as jobs go.
Chase Parker
...
Jackson White
I imagine a GW retail store is all the bad elements of a GameStop and a local game store combined. It must be soul-crushing.
Daniel Brown
The stores themselves are rather nice, as far as working retail goes. But "good for retail" is still not that great.
James Evans
>Not helping out your LGS by making flags for Steamrollers
Landon Allen
From what I've heard around here (eastern Virginia), their idea is 'One person, One store.' So, whoever they hire has to work 7 days a week open to close and if he's ever sick or has personal business the store is just closed because he isn't allowed to have anyone else be working there.
Jacob Stewart
It's honestly pretty stupid. They could just hire one person 4 days a week and another 3 days a week. No one wants to work 7 days.
Levi Mitchell
I'll never understand American labor laws, always seems unnecessarily draconic to me.
Played this yesterday and it did very well against Calaban. The ethos is that if solos are shit, don't bring them. The Willbreaker just about gets a pass because rerolling Obliteration damage and taking out a model on the 2nd try is sort of like the Willbreaker has killed a model but from stupid range. He also makes crucial plays safer. I just wish they hadn't nerfed him so heavily going into Mk3. He was only ever a walking Ancillary Attack before, so why nerf Puppet Master?
I'm actually thinking of pairing this with Makeda3.
Ayden Ward
It's not a forced 7 days a week, but it is highly subjective on the manager.
Where I am, the store is only open 5 hours on Sunday, and closed Monday/Tuesday. Another store is closed Sun/Mon and clsoes at 7pm. It's bizarre.
Nicholas Anderson
>wanting basic labor rights is being lazy And that's why you guys will keep getting fucked.
Hunter Myers
That's a fucking cool mini. Also yay for hooks in miniature wargames.
Joseph Kelly
I want Loki to hook his cock inside me.
Is it the end of February yet?
Ian Cooper
Book is out 8 February. If we are lucky we will get some spoiler by the end of next week.
John Sanchez
Meanwhile the Venator Dakar was revealed about 8 months ago and still doesn't have anything close to a release date, despite Skorne just being given a gunline theme.
Justin King
Any month now...
Hunter Wright
8 Feb? I thought it was 23 Feb with everything else.
>mfw my preorder wont ship until the same day
Connor Butler
Loki is expected for the Februrary 22.
Nolan Bell
Anyone have NQ 70?
Christian Hernandez
Ask me about my Hurricane model.
David Reed
Took like 3 years for the Desert Hydra to be released.
Caleb Carter
T. Never been to southern europe
You'd starve in a week guiri.
Matthew Martinez
Ogh wow he has more man face than I do, And i have a stubble.
Ryder Robinson
>As an American, I've always heard that the east coast is the worse of the two. Especially when it comes to employment It's just a perception thing, I think. Grass is always greener, and all that. I've done both, though EC is home for me. People who are happy with their thing tend to like the place they live, people who aren't complain they'd rather be elsewhere.
>holy christ those thighs hey, man, these are wild, ferocious combat ladies we're talking about here. I'd expect them to be built like a crossfit gym chick, not a bikini model.
Sebastian Bell
Northern European, actually.
Having paid vacation, health insurance, humane working hours and free weekends is a luxury only in third world countries and the USA.
Evan Lewis
Time for loki x satyr?
Gabriel Peterson
I want some Loki x Tanith smut.
Sadly there's a lack of Warmahordes smut out there. I have like, one picture of a Farrow beast rutting someone.
Thomas Hernandez
>girl
but user, that doesnt trigger people! Also I cant write women.
Colton Sullivan
Hurricane "release"/statblock release was actually a few months before the Hydra.
Mason Sanchez
You gotta buy up the stock of Stormwalls, so they can release their Stormwall/Hurricane kit!
Look forward to Extreme Colossal Wrestling in next months NQ!
Hudson Jenkins
Honestly, Colossal Wrestling sounds fucking boring.
I mean, what are you doing, other than setting your two Colossals next to each other?
Carter Stewart
Didn't you listen to Hungerford on Primecast?
You get to set your two colossals next to each other while shouting CATCHPHRASES (like Convergence can go 'ACTIVATING PILEDRIVER SEQUENCE' in robot voices XD), and the rules state you have to shout your 1-2-3 tap count or you don't win.
It's all about FUN and CAMARADERIE and is totally not cringey at all.
James Hall
>coc >not shouting "NEXT RELEASE WHEN YOU JEWS I NEED CAVALRY REEEE"
Thomas Evans
>minions >I CANT FUCKING PLAY THIS GAME REEEEEEEEE
Jaxon Richardson
Anybody recall what the date was for the PDF's of the full decks? Somebody in the previous thread said L&L, but that seems pretty far off... I'd thought they were saying sometime in the next month.
Adam Davis
>There really is no excuse. The box advertises one thing, the product is another.
In sort of related news, there's a malifaux model that has a box showing a girl wearing glasses, but the actual model doesn't have any. There's also a dog model that's supposed to have a leash it's dragging around that the actual model doesn't have. What gets me is people act like this is the ultimate betrayal and scream about it. I mean yeah, I get you, pic doesn't match contents, but it's so minor, grow the fuck up.
The hydra is a different story. Sad to see that PP has no intention of fixing the mold. Oh well, still a pretty model.
Jaxson Ross
PDFs are in the OP. Do you mean the errata'd cards? Should've picked Skorne friend, we already have ours ;^)
