Previous thread had to spend survival or die while insane and immortal:

Antelope is fought on the Plain of Faces, but amidst a lot of Acanthus plants (like the Lion stalks Tall Grass)

What's the best Fighting Art to put into Sculpture? (in 1.5, obviously) I'm going with Unconscious Fighter

Is there a correct color to the acanthus plant?

green, mostly

Google it, it's a real plant. The shape of its leaves is very popular for ornamentation.

And he was so close to death too. That really sucked. Also a quirk of the lvl 2 lion, when he drew ground fighting, he does not draw any other AI cards, but he still did his cunning trait. So during the last few rounds he lay low, grabbed the remaining survivor in front of him, dragged him across the field and next turn he'd grab the poor sap again and drag him in the opposite direction, sicne he had to spend one turn knocked down on his ass.
Time for settlement nr. 3 I guess.
Jace Morales
>Time for settlement nr. Yeah . lvl 2 lion has a habit of doing that to cocky survivors
Matthew Murphy
>butcher faced butcher
your mistake has reminded me of an idea I had in the shower, a homebrew monster vs monster mode, which would work something like this:
>ai decks turned into player decks >draw x ai cards, play 1 per turn (unless you're butcher) >would like to use hit location decks, but probably easier to work out with the life rule >maybe use a toughness table ala warhammer, where the dice roll is determined by difference of toughness, or maybe something, i dont know
keep in mind i've only fought up to the hand, so unless the watcher and GSK does something that makes this impossible i wouldn't know, also I would need to figure out how to balance late monsters vs early monsters, maybe just have it be level 3 monsters only.

Me brain no work good in morning...
Anyway, this time around I'm going to invest into grease early on and try to get my hands on ammonia, since it seems to be really fucking important in the long run.
Adrian Smith
Friend and I having disagreement. Twilight Sword.
He argues it is an intentional copy and homage to the Master Sword from Legend of Zelda.
I argue he is a blind dipshit looking through his telescope backwards.
So which is it? Is the fact the sword appears in the Messenger of Courage's hand enough to overlook key differences? Or is a long handled claymore with a face and bandages as similar to a wing-hilted broadsword with a triangle on it as a Ford Focus is to a Pontiac GTO?
Shut up, I know we are autistic nerds.
Alexander Sanchez
You painted the fucking White Lion brown.
How many other things in life have you fucked up?
Logan Thompson
The blade has a similiar design, but when you look at the adventure sword, I think if poots wanted to truly make a master sword cameo, he'd be a lot less subtle about it.
Ethan Robinson
I checked the game on TTS, but the version I found had no models in it, just chips. I think I saw models as separate entries on steam workshop.
Can they be just implemented into the main game file somehow or is there a better version around that already includes everything?
I want to play this with a buddy, but he's more drawn to the Dark Souls game, cause it has implemented models from the actual game, which is nice.
John Adams
look for the scripted TTS mods
Grayson Thomas
Search for Achromatic
Dylan Lee
There's some that already have models implemented, Achromatic Scripted is probably the best version since it will automatically sort out the AI decks, make copies of gear and resources and set up the hunt and settlement boards. It does have some irritating glitchy bits though, like sometimes it hangs loading things and that will make it reset the monster position on the hunt board if it's been moved by events.
Connor White
Last I checked, which was about 6 months ago, in July, and coincidentally which alerted me that this game even existed, there are no armor set models.
There was an "ultimate 2.0 scripted edition" that had the 4 basic survivor models, all of the boss models, and some terrain. I don't believe there are any sets with all the armor sets modeled any further than that. The Achromatic version had pinup stands, but not actual models.
If there is one since then, I would be extremely happy to know.
Cooper Collins
...
Elijah Martin
is this loss?
Juan Reyes
Only prologue, core game and half of expansion monsters have models in TTS.
Achromatic is the best TTS version of 1.3/1.4 KDM, you just go to options and fix the lighting, and you'll be set. I'm using a lil modified version of it for my 1.5 games with friends.
Xavier Bailey
Has anyone made any files for standees or pogs or anything like that?
Noah Hernandez
I've spent the evening looking for Dragon King references and I'm fucking terrified that I won't be able to give him the paint job he deserves come March.
I feel the need to order myself a miniature painting techniques guide so I can freshen up and improve my basics in preparation. Any suggestions?
Anthony Russell
Find your favorite dragon from games, books or movies and pay him tribute.
Leo Davis
>Records.
Justin Smith
First thought is my boy Dire Miralis because he's a walking volcano, but I prefer the idea of a Cherenkov blue glow to get across the idea that DK is a walking reactor instead.
I'm more concerned about my poor technical skills (layering, blending, shading, etc.) than the color scheme anyway.
Landon Gray
I don't really mind the models, I just want the cards.
Hunter Moore
Tidied up the survivor UI a bit. Still just placeholder.
Jack Lopez
Perhaps.
Justin James
Have you seen new Records? It's fucking brilliant.
Also two loopholes. The retired guy can just keep writing. You can write about any monster the settlement has defeated.
Hudson Rodriguez
>Disgracing KDM with the shittiest engine of all time
Jordan Hughes
>Unity >Bad
It's responsible for a lot of asset flippers who cannot optimise for shit, of course. Some gorgeous games came out in the Unity engine this year including Hollow Knight and Cuphead.
Hunter Watson
>Only TWO games based looked good this year both with wholly on hand painted assets means the engine is good! >What do you mean an engine is more than graphics and that the graphics of these games could have been made just as good by writing your own graphics engine in an afternoon!
Sorry man forgot I wasn't on /g/. If you where a proper programmer it'd be easier to explain. Short version: Unity is slow as an engine and its workflow is comparatively slow to all competitors largely due to using high-level meme-languages that are being phased out everywhere except in "Programming for kids" classes.
Bentley Cooper
Don't forget Hand of Fate 2. In previous years there was the Trine games, City Skylines, Pillars of Eternity, Satellite Reign, Wasteland 2, Kerbal Space Program and, as much as people decry it, Hearthstone uses the unity engine.
Unity's strength (And it's weakness) is it's accessibility. It's a good engine for a lot of things and it's designed for being an easily accessed engine that even rookies can use well. Which makes it tempting for asset flipping but that's not really the fault of the engine itself.
Connor Evans
That's like saying scratch is a valid language to learn because its accessible. Unity with alot of work can produce the same level of good games as other ones, but there's a reason most big players avoid it like the plague. Also you should look up the unity & hearthstone thing, in case you missed it its a famous example of a company REGRETTING the use of an engine, always funny when unity-people bring it up as if it was a badge of honor.
But lets not get deep into this discussion in this thread. Lets leave it at "Opinions" and that all engines have their strengths and weaknesses, just like my guy Cancer who now not only has had his dick bitten off by an insect but accidentally had to have intimacy with his mom due to rivalry but who has +1 luck.
Ethan Smith
Well shit. Where do I get a miniature Acanthus? Looked all over Google and eBay and couldn't find anything similar in the right scale.
William Perez
Funny thing is, since his body apart from the mane doesn't look covered in fur but smooth, your lion looks like he got tanned. He was a White Lion, but he spent too much time near a Sunstalker, or something. Kudos for trying something new, but it's a bit perplexing. Maybe the mane should have been golden or white, to keep a referenc to the name? How did you make that colour choice? (Also, you missed some gaps.)
Mason Foster

Sucks that I can't find her arm, but at least I got some tiddies. The arm will probably turn up eventually.
Dylan Brooks
Nothing can stop the browning of White Lions
Parker Sanders
Just got my core game and I'm scared as fuck about damaging anything. Whats the best course for protecting this beautiful game? Card Sleeves? Laminating the settlement locations? I feel like I'm handling something that could explode if I look at it funny
Justin Baker
Are there any options for poorfags to play this? This actually seems neat, but I'm both poor and have zero experience painting.
Is it on tabletop sim?
Sebastian Wright
It is on table top sim, Ive played hundreds of hours amd bought the real deal as soon as I had the money.
Camden Morales
Holy shit didn't know that /kdm/ got so triggered by a White Lion that identifies itself as Brown. Anyways, no special meaning to being brown I just felt like using a brown scheme. Either way, I plan on having 3 Lions because I love MonHun and I want one different per level. >(Also, you missed some gaps.) Fuck, I'm still a beginner using green stuff. Like I said, I just want 3 Lions with completely different colors. Also white is a fucking pain in the ass to paint.
Landon Reyes
Can you recommend a version on TTS?
Joseph Walker
Nigga read the thread
Isaiah Campbell
Same here. I'm terrified to even start assembling the minis because you can't just buy certain ones from the core set, and it's so fucking expensive.
James Carter
Man, not only are you a parasite, you're a parasite that can't even fucking read.
Jonathan Wood
White lion, antelope, butcher and starting survivors are pretty simple to build , that will keep you going for awhile and after that you should have a bit more confidence in building others if your not brain dead
John Roberts
Good to know. I keep hearing that there is a lot of issues with gaps in the figures though. Should I worry about those when assembling, or can I come back and fix them later?
Sebastian Brooks
Worry about it while assembling because some gaps can be minimized but you don't need to worry about gap filling until you get around to it , just gap fill before priming
Anthony Carter
Thanks for the tip. I'll have to get some green stuff for when I finally have time over winter break to assemble these. Am I better off getting the liquid or solid stuff?
Luis Murphy
>YOU JUST ACTIVATED MY TRAIT CARD! NOW PREPARE TO PAY THE SHADOW REALM A VISIT!
Gabriel Bailey
You've got three different lion minis? One for each level, I presume? Or is it one for common lions, and two for the two legendary lions?
Josiah Cox
Are there 2 different legendary Lions? I was talking about lvl1 to lvl3
Alexander Miller
Yeah. Big Benjamins Catter and Emo Catter.
Asher Howard
Beast of Sorrow, aka the loot bag. Then this Great Golden Cat.
Easton Wilson
Man Beast of Sorrow is the best. If you have that in 1.0 there is no reason to ever hunt a Level 3 Lion. Sucks that they made Legendary Monsters only one time fightable in 1.5.
Blake Adams
Go to a local pet store and look at the stuff they sell for decorations in pet tanks. Sometimes you can find great stuff, especially if you have an exotic pet shop near you that sells spiders and lizards and stuff.
Dylan Walker
Holy shit now I need to get one more Lion. Might as well paint the loot bag like a big fucking piƱata.
Daniel Walker
Oh for fuck's sake, I didn't realize that was a thing. >make the screaming antelope the supreme resource king >"well i guess giving the white lion extra resources on top of beast of sorrow would be a bit broken" >but now you can only fight it once Poor White Lion dindu nuffin. Why Poots? All you did was turn White Lion farming into Screaming Antelope farming.
Owen Scott
Watch tutorials on youtube for free. There are a lot of good ones about painting GW miniatures, some done by one of their in house painters.
Leo Lopez
If you want to cover everything, you need five lions. Lvl1, lvl2, lvl3, Beast of Sorrow and Great Golden Cat.
Jaxson Campbell
I thought I was paranoid. Cutting and separating parts into zip lock bags. ....I'm not paranoid, I swear.
Brayden Thomas
put a thin cloth like a pair of nylons over the end of a vacuum attachment and vacuum your carpet where you dropped it. The suction will make it stick to the cloth.
Sebastian Reed
That is completely normal you silly user. Nah man, that is too much plastic. Is anyone selling their Lion?
Brody Baker
Yeah I wish the base game had come with some extra lions instead of the extra watcher and phoenix and king's men
Andrew Young
Brilliant
James Gutierrez
Clearly, you need some pride!
Isaiah Torres
Shit like this is why I have no problem with recasts.
David Taylor
Oh hey, and don't forget the lion mama you can fight in that hunt event. Shouldn't she get a unique miniature, too? She's not a male lion like the minis are. Though given that the event says nothing about removing her testicles, maybe they're just hermaphrodites.
Easton Ramirez
Poots confirmed both gender lions have testicles. Social justice game tbqh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cooper Morris
That made me think, will we get a Female First Hero? If so, I hope we get unique Hit Loaction Cards.
John Hall
I'm not sure if that qualifies as social justice or just a bullshit excuse to not add a new model.
Joseph Hall
That basically just makes them like Hyenas.
James Brown
What I'm far more worried about is Poots catching wind of this and his legal obligation to issue a C&D.
Christopher Ortiz
There's a motherfucking Jojo reference man in the last thread explaining why you should shut the fuck up about your fan game but he obviously didn't listen
Jordan Williams
>obligation
Charles Mitchell
Don't know, I've seen people talking about there being both a male and female First Hero, but I've only ever seen the male mentionned officially. Maybe I've skipped something. In any case, I doubt he does it if it's only for a few locations on otherwise identical monsters.
Also belt of gender-swap. And homosexual partnership.
Christopher Williams
You literally can't C&D against Anonymous.
Lincoln Gray
Yeah you can. Hell, a bunch of elitist in Ivy-Oxbridge are trying to attribute Shakespeare's works to him because they don't believe someone from the middle class to be capable of such artistry.
Lincoln Gray
I want more world lore, Poots. Give us a another art book at least, please.
Jack Roberts
...
Nathaniel Sanchez
Sorry, that's the big version. Poots has trolled those of poor eyesight.
Mason Wilson
in this case that's intentional - they wanted to give some work in progress spoilers without giving too much spoilers

Female first hero was mentioned somewhere in the depths of the kickstarter comments.
