Rant for 07MAR2022

Recently downloaded, Necromunda: Gang Skirmish looks decent but has almost everything worthwhile behind a paywall. Worse, there is no way to earn premium currency. This means that anything not bought with regular credits has to be bought with premium currency. Worse, the game punishes you for not buying the premium currency. Whether it is fancy gear for you gangers, or to speed up a THREE DAY recovery, the Legendary Games wants you to spend hard cash for their BETA Game. I am also not going to be shocked if they shut this game down and rerelease under a new name once people stop paying for it.

LEGO Star Wars Review

Ramblings and Rumbling of the Day.

Tim Pool has been SWATed. SWATting is when a false crime is reported, usually through a non-emergency line, that involves a violent standoff with casualties. These events are happening more frequently, has changed from feuds and rivalries to being a tool by various groups to harass and intimidate their opponents.

State of the "Union? More like State of Ukraine and how Biden wants to do stuff even though he no longer has a mandate.

Ramblings for Star Wars.

Star Cruiser reviews are out and it is as expected. The $6000 LARPing event is designed to separate rich fools from their cash in the most lackadaisical way possible.

State of the Union speculation.

Political Rant on Biden, Ukraine, and Russia.

Political Rant on Biden, Ukraine, and Russia.

To the surprise of no one, Putin is now invading the whole of Ukraine, not just the Eastern Territories. Biden is now seen for what he really is, a weak leader with no will to fight.

My initial take of the new T'au Empire Codex. In all honesty, the Tau Empire of the past would not recognize the T'au Empire. Too many abilities have been removed or changed to strategems, while unit options have been removed or nerfed for "balance".

Seriously, the only ones surprised are those not paying attention.

Good to hear about the reprints, but where is the new stuff?

Weekend Review and my take on the WotC split. The WotC split can go great if done right. However, it can quickly go terrible if mishandled on any level.

First video shout out to Scott11621 and his dual comments. Thank you for the comments, man.

The brief overview of the Star Wars RPG Career. If there is a careers you would like to know about, drop a comment. I will shout it out and go over the career in a future video.

The brief overview of the Star Wars RPG Species. If there is a species you would like to know about, drop a comment. I will shout it out and go over the species in a future video.

The difference between Star Wars FFG and the Dungeons and Dragons RPG.

Seriously, I am hoping it is Honest Incompetence, because the alternative is terrifying.
