Liked Deadpool 2, it will always be good to the people it is good to now. Such is the way of many movies. Even look at say, Terminator. The time it is set in is foreign to younger viewers and they may have a problem getting into it.

It's actually a /rare/ movie that survives the transition of time.

Saw Infinity War finally, was pretty good, but if you haven't been caught up on /all/ the recent marvel movies, (Black Panther, Captain America Civil War, even Iron Man 3 to an extent) it might be a little jarring and create some disconnects.

(ETA) And Thor: Ragnarok, and Guardians of the Galaxy, etc.

See I like #3 using SPELLJAMMER!

Especially since 5e now has rules for it.

I really really like #3

#1 is good too because of the post apocalyptic vibes.

@arkandel Werewolves are bad asses, if you have a grapple specialized Rahu to go Garau and grapple and yoink defense, otherwise... yeah. Pretty bad.

@magee101 I would say Dean is not a fair analogy since he is clearly not just a mortal. Nor Sam for that matter.

They also always ended up leveraging the supernaturals flaws.

@magee101 Why should a knife wielding mortal be /able/ to contend with supers?

I mean... Mortals are only supposed to contend with supers by leveraging the supers disadvantages...

I think it depends on the game system and what stuff /is/.

Stuff is a lot of things, sometimes it's represented with xp spends, sometimes it's represented with plots and notes, etc.

I'm of the opinion that stuff /earned/ has more value... but being able to spend xp for stuff can also be nice for those who don't have the time to run multiple plots but still want to have stuff.

@bad-at-lurking The problem with this is that you are going to be excluding people who could bring more people in, or join up with other people to form their own group.

If you only appeal to an established group, then that is ALL you will have on your game. People will leave. You need to balance it out and make activity for everyone or what's the point?

@rucket That was one of them yeah.

Solo: Bad casting choice is why I am not seeing this in theatres. I do not see Han in the actor they picked.

@darc There were plenty of broken ones just in the (new) World of Darkness main book. Martial Arts etc.

My only concern (other than 1e broken combat merits, yes I am looking at you multi-action merits, and some other splat specific merits) is that XP Tiers always segregate RP.

Those who come in with big xp can just obliterate lower xp people. A lot of it is dependent on how pvp is handled and such but in general... not had a lot of good experience with xp tiers personally.

Will be giving this a chance eventually though.

@thenomain If you like mediums, try and get a couple Dragons or Catapults, they feel like mediums if you give them jump jets. Dragons especially cuz they are 5/8 movers and fasssst. I love Wolverine's they are my favorite medium hands down, fast, good armor, solid loadout flexibility, Griffon's too can be very good. I did a 3 skull with 4 griffons that put me up against 3 grasshoppers and a dragon. I lost one of the griffons (had to eject the mechwarrior) but overall, won the fight.

Stock mechs have generally less armor than max, so /always/ max your armor or close to it, it helps a lot.

Other thing is take one heavy like a thunderbolt or a jaeger and max it's armor, walk it forwards and use brace all the time so it can absorb stupid amounts of punishment and allow you to focus down other mechs.

There's a lot of different tactics.

Can make a bit right now

@thenomain You really want at least 3 heavies for 3 skull missions, I was using an orion, a jagermech, a catapult and a griffon 1n and doing three skulls without to much difficulty.

Right now I am running highlander, battlemaster, zeus, and catapult and can do 4's, haven't tried a 5 yet.

Also pilots matter a lot, for 3's you want people to have 6+s in every skill

@packrat Pulse Lasers have an increased chance to hit as well. They are worth it if you are needing to take lesser skilled pilots into the fight.

I used to LOVE Grooveshark until it failed cuz it broke so many many laws.

I use Iheart for streaming, mostly I don't use radio because commercials suck and I don't drive as much as I used to. In my car I use home made mp3 cd's
