Let me know when its not, still won't let me send messages

send me a personal message. it is still saying you can't receive any.

Can't send you messages in ordo? Says you can't receive.

I'm struggling a bit with the various limits based on PL and then how multiple stats are combined and set limits too. would love to sit down with you and go over char creation. We play over roll20, so if you are interested in that, let me know and I can find you a seat. that being said, its not our main game.

My roll20 group is looking to get into this and was just hoping there was an ordo or two out there that might be able to help with rules and character building questions.

It has a heated bed, and the printer does make sure its at temps before starting. Hmmmm, maybe the speed of printing aided in pulling the filament off of the bed despite it being hot. It was a curiosity anyways. I don't need to speed print. I'll try it some other time when its warmer. Thanks for the input. Still need to try my resin printer. 😔

So I tried to do a FLM print on fast setting to see the difference in quality. What I got was an explosion of string. Is that a temperature thing? I have the printer in my basement so its probably in the mid 60's down there. The print area is enclosed but perhaps the speed was not giving the filament time to adhere? Just a curiosity thing really. I changed the print back to normal speed and it printed just fine.

I have to say, I'm actually disappointed with this model. I used to be a huge DA fan and had the original. Why in the world would you update it, but basically make it the exact same pose? They have all these new modeling techniques and cool stuff...why not create a cool dynamic model? Instead, its something they basically cast 20 years ago. 😞

Have you tried the Dark Angel Combat Patrol box? It has one in it. I know Amazon has them and might be able to ship to you in time.

Pffft....forgiving...oh no, I've also got the undead shambler team as well. But yeah, one of the reasons for that box was due to the two other teams in it. Okay, so now I need to find the updated rules. Thanks!

So how is this going? Any update or battle reps? I've always loved mordheim.

Because I'm dumb, I picked up a copy of blood bowl from Mindtaker. It has the new plastics. That being said, it is not the second season box that is on GW's web site. Is that still the latest set of rules for BB? or will I need to get those in addition?

Woot! my FDM printer arrived yesterday. Got it hooked up and even did a test print. I think I need to calibrate again as there were some odd rough spots, but all in all, wow, so easy to get going. Now I gotta learn to load files and print an STL I own.

I'd have to go back and look, its been months since I had done that...I think it might have been some necron units at the time since that was the army I had been interested at the time.

Has anyone made a conversion of models to units for OPR? That was one of the bits that confused me reading thru some of the lists. I could work out a bunch of them, but sometimes I was scratching my head. I would love to give OPR a good try.

Out of town, dad passed suddenly.

I backed something very similar with more rounded buildings.

Those two facts are not exclusive.

I'm very nearly done with my 40K collection and really just need a few last units to wrap things up. In no rush or hurry, but figured I'd check with Ordo to see if I could fill some of those gaps. I'm interested in the new Kill Team Karskin unit that was released not long ago in a box set. Also looking for a Vostroyan imperial guard unit. At least 10 guys, and wouldn't mind a few heavy or special weapon options to go along with. Have lots to trade and also don't mind buying if the price is right.

Quick update. I've gotten two characters up to level 10, which shouldn't be hard, but the game seems very unstable right now. I'm crashing all the time. Here's the rub, I'm on a brand new system. X670E motherboard, new ryzen 7700x cpu, 32gb ddr5 ram, radeon 6700xt vid card with 12gb gddr6, running on a samsung pro 980 nvme 2TB ssd, with a fresh install of windows 10 pro. All drivers are up to date. Oh, and I'm averaging 900+ mb/s thru my 2.5gb network card. And this is with several graphic features turned off in the game to smooth things out. Ugh. It is beta, so hopefully more fixes will come thru. To its credit, if you do crash or are disconnected, it will generally allow you to try to reconnect as long as the mission is still being played. I'd say I can reconnect about 90% of the time. But if you get the boot right at the end, most likely the mission will finish up before you get back in, resulting in a loss of rewards. That sucks. Again though, it is a beta and I'm hopeful that things get fixed. The gameplay is good....A decent mixture of fun stuff and hair pulling frustration. Makes beating a level all the more satisfying.

First of all, any ordo's playing? My handle is BrotherGlacius on steam. Right now I'm playing mostly the psyker and zealot. For those that played vermintide, the game is similar in some regards, but they have made some nice improvements. There are now common weapon choices across the classes. Especially in the low levels. So everyone can have a lasgun if they want (which makes for an excellent sniper rifle). As you level up, you'll start to unlock class specific weapons. There are no chests after each level like vermintide. You get a certain amount of coin that you can then spent to buy stuff. I think the selection of what you can buy changes each time you level (as some gear is level dependent). Money is shared across all characters, so you don't specifically have to grind for each character which is nice. But there doesn't seem to be any selling of old gear nor breaking it down for parts just yet. But again, not the full game, so who knows. The game is tough, the levels are huge, and sometimes it is not easy to know which way to go. Right now there are too many people trying to do speed runs to unlock levels, so grouping kind of sucks, as it doesn't allow for any exploration because just like in vermintide, if you get separated, then you are dead. Enjoying the game play though. They have introduced a slide action to help avoid enemy fire. You can get roasted pretty quick from enemy shooting. I like it. Can't wait for the full game.

those look a tad big, do you have a GW stand to compare next to? I love warmaster and have been eyeing some of those 3rd party armies....they do look amazing.

Being restricted to base reinforced companies out of the one book kind of hurts. Like I have the little pop AT gun...but then I can't take any arty. I think I based my army out of the Armies of the Sun book or something..so going back to the crap Italy book where they have the worst special rules ever just doesn't do well. But I get why you do it.

Sorry I didn't make it. I came close. But wife just got home after being gone for a whole week and it just didn't feel right to be gone a whole day. Plus, I couldn't even get my Italians up to 1250pts. 😞 we'll try to get a game in together soon.

address would be really helpful
