Text of the page (random words):
ws and therefore the gap between new and experienced players also gets ever wider this then forces the decision making to get smaller in comparison to knowledge which in turn leads to less reliable predicting so this aspect reduces too in this form the game meta then starts to hinge around key set plays and patterns which further increases the knowledge requirement and we can easily see a vicious circle occurring right now think about it how many pivotal moments in games are dominated by a fully loaded captain or power model as opposed to good positioning of a team and solid all round play and then when you come up against this if you know the set play then you might be able to counter it but if you don t then you simply lose the game because a single mistake is all that s needed don t get me wrong i think it is fine for skill gaps to exist this is why the game is so addictive as i mentioned briefly before every game gives you a tiny bit of experience that helps you get better and so your player skill grows with practice playing and studying the game i think it is entirely reasonable for the more skilled player to win more often but not to a 100 win rate level the game inherently needs a more volatile game state to allow a weaker player to compensate somehow for their relative weakness and steal a game or two i m not saying drive this down to 50 50 regardless of skill gap that would be too random but the 1 10 and 9 10 scenarios need to be brought into play ideally they would be closer to 7 8 10 and 2 3 10 correspondingly reference to magic the gathering arguably the world s most successful competitive game in our hobby s history ever pro versus amateur win rates are closer to 60 40 in favor of the pro pros will know they will win more games than not but they go into each game with the excitement and tension of not knowing for certain and we see the mtg circuit growing and growing after all this time it is interesting to think about i think i therefore want to make the difference in skill between players a little more ephemeral and a bit harder to define clearly but to do this we need a little more variance in the game but this is where it can all go wrong if we re not careful undefined variance is not helpful we need to look at the player skill attributes and deliberately source or create our variance from specific aspects of the game ecosystem in order to bring the game closer to neutral having looked at the game for some time i think we can initially attack this from several different angles in pursuit of the neutral balance shrink the knowledge gap by lowering the volume of data points that need to be learned emphasise the execution of play by making board control and positioning more important de emphasise set plays and patterns which like fools mate in chess will not work if you know about them but will work if you don t emphasise the need for better predicting skills to win further to provide a cushion and to encourage more open play we need to find ways to increase the tolerance of mistakes and try to reduce games being decided on a single decision or dice roll if we can so despite the popular view right now is that we don t need a field test i believe there s actually a lot of tinkering we must do for the health of the game state right now the knowledge aspect has got way too big and it is crushing all other aspects of the game much like rito s close season the guild ball field test is a process for us to come together as a community and talk about the game bounce some ideas around and see what seems fun and what doesn t in the background i ll be parsing the feedback data and working out how each idea affects the game state itself and slowly forming a new season s ruleset to take the game forward i ll be mostly working on guild ball over the weekend gotta find those dev hours from somewhere so i will be around and about then next week i m expecting to publish the actual proper guidelines for the field test via the official sfg channels this will set out how its all going to work and what we need hope from all of the community phew that was long but hopefully gives you all some insight into the thinking behind what we re looking at during this field test i don t really do fb anymore so any questions or useful comments then find me on twitter c4rp3r instead of here but please be nice to me and to each other we all want the same thing and there s enough nastiness in the world already exciting times to come posted on april 17 2020 categories guild ball wargaming tags community field test guild ball leave a comment on guild ball field test what s in a name free cities draft part 1 it s been a while since i ve done one of these but with the imminent release of the first wave of the free cities draft models it seems a perfect time to do another what s in a name as a recap the free cities draft was a community involved guild ball event last year where players played matches and voted for which guild they wanted a rookie player to go further details can be found here the free cities draft players were named before they joined their drafted guild s so unlike most players their names don t fit into the guild s usual naming structure i believe there was a discussion about changing the players names but this didn t progress knuckles fisherman s guild the knuckles are the joints of the fingers particularly prominent when formed into a fist the name also brings about thought s of bare knuckle boxing and as knuckles was a heavy in a gang before taking to guild ball so fits the name well layne butcher s guild layne is a enigmatic striker of prodigious talent but has more than his fair share of personal demons including drug use which makes him erratic layne is an in game tribute to the late alice in chains lead singer layne staley edge hunter s guild edge was revealed to be skatha s sister and although her appearance is edgy edge does fit well as a hunter s name as it invokes thoughts of the edge of the map wilderness gaffer mortician s guild the use of the word gaffer is first documented in the late 16th century and appears to be a contraction of godfather in british english it is colloquially used to mean a foreman or boss as well as commonly used to refer to sports coaches gaffer was the rookies coach in the free cities draft and remains a coach now the campaign to recruit gaffer to the mortician s was driven by ritch of beard minis and his catchphrase even made it onto the card as the legendary play i managed to obtain an early release copy of gaffer and the casting was excellent the new resin mix seems more rigid than previously and has very little clean up the model itself is great with gaffer wreathed in spirit flames staring at ghast s mask whilst a ghostly mouth presumably ghast is whispering in his ear amber farmer s guild amber was originally in the brewer s guild before being kicked out so her name likely links to that amber as well as being a description of her hair colour is a term that is becoming more common to describe pale ales that are brewed with a proportion of amber malt the phrase amber nectar has been used to describe beer since the 19th century and is the tag line for the australian children s soft drink foster s until next time sports fans posted on july 26 2019 july 26 2019

the vanguard hello folks it s been a while but as always real life gets in the way sometimes it s been a busy year so far and as always my inner hobby butterfly got the better of me and i ve been playing all sorts guild ball age of sigmar 40k lion rampant mordheim moonstone everyone should play this to name a few hopefully i ll be able to have some more regular updates soon on that note as some of you may be aware mantic games recently announced a new initiative where six clubs across the world would be given everything they needed to start playing the king of war vanguard game the skirmish sister of the massed battle game amazingly my local club milton hundred wargames club was chosen as one of six in the world and one of two in the uk to participate the club has been provided with enough for six players to start and they will track how they are getting on over the next few months although i m not part of this trial i ve played vanguard a few times and i think they are in for a treat it s a really interesting rule set and i do have a weakness for skirmish games the participants are olly steve rob dave christopher and mark the milton hundred wargames club is based in sittingbourne in kent and we meet on the 2nd and 4th tuesday of every month from 18 30 22 00 the club has about 30 members and plays a vast range of historical and fantasy sci fi games in almost all scales the club also runs the broadside show every june which recently got another great write up in the august edition of miniature wargames magazine thanks john if you are interested in finding out more feel free to look us up on facebook or pop down to see what s going on until next time hopefully soon posted on july 13 2019 july 13 2019 categories uncategorized tags community game on wargaming leave a comment on send in the vanguard guild ball new captains mourn the nightmare so quite unexpectedly steamforged games have announced four new captains for guild ball one in particular caught my eye and that is mourn of the mortician s guild following the events of the beginning of season 4 where spoilers scalpel kills obulus we were given a story based upon a christmas carol called a free cities carol where scalpel is visited by the ghost of obulus at the end of the story the future spirit appears a figure lurched into view but a child at first glance lank hair ran like long streaks of oil from her scalp its dark hue a stark contrast to the deathly pallor of her skin in a hideous parody of the solthecian carollers the girl held a large candle in the palm of an upturned hand seemingly uncaring of the molten wax which dripped down to sear her flesh horrified the spirit weaver turned to speak once more to the ferryman s shade only to find him absent her gaze swept to the open pages of his tome a single silver coin placed on its aged parchment the only indication of his presence she returned to the doorway just as the mournful child lurched through the grave light illuminating the metal discs set into the vacant sockets of her eyes scalpel didn t need to look closely to know they would be one and same as the ferryman s tokens the murderer bowed her head dead he may be but the ferryman s legacy lived on unknown at the time this is now mourn the nightmare the mournful child this has then been followed with a brief story from scalpel s perspective some of the initial suggestions have been that the ferryman s legacy may refer to her being either his child or his apprentice however i feel the truth may be far darker than that looking at the artwork she doesn t appear to be entirely human with oversized clawed hands not to mention that her eyes have been replaced with coins or obolos could it be that the link isn t from obulus to her but rather that the tokens are a sign of her favour to him what if she has been the driving force behind obulus power and influence and that she needed a sacrifice of a master by a protégé to enable her to cross the veil into the world what if everything up to this point has been part of her plan rather than obulus as for how she ll play on the table control is a fairly obvious guess i can see the candle playing into some sort of area control and the a play called snuff out is hopefully not ignored she seems to be carrying a number of weapons and there are also obvious links to rats it s going to be a big ask for her to replace either scalpel or obulus in a roster though until next time sports fans posted on february 19 2019 february 19 2019 categories guild ball uncategorized tags morticians season 4 leave a comment on guild ball new captains mourn the nightmare hobby goals 2019 i guess it s that time of the year again to set out some hobby goals for the year ahead 2018 was a bit of a weird one and i didn t have anywhere near enough time to dedicate to the hobby as i would have liked couple that with the fact that i am very much a hobby butterfly flitting from one idea to the next i really got nothing substantial done with that in mind in 2019 i am going to concentrate my time across a three projects and see if i can stick to them they are guild ball ratcatcher s for me guild ball is still one of the best and most fun games i have ever played and i m obviously going to continue playing in 2019 i m not much of a tournament player so this will likely continue to be casually or in small local events i am also going to concentrate on ratcatcher s for a foreseeable future i have been playing morticians since season 1 and although i really like them i just not as enthused to play them as i once was probably in no small part to their recent rise in popularity i ve loved the idea behind the ratcatcher s since i first heard about them and especially liked the rat trap play style of season 3 as well as their aesthetic although they have changed somewhat in season 4 i am going to stick with them however at the moment i find them difficult to play find them inefficient and unforgiving of any mistakes couple this with me being a mediocre player at best it s going to be a challenging 2019 guild ball wise god tear steamforged are due to release god tear this year and as a kickstarter backer i am excited to see what s to come for this i think it s a good mix of wargaming and boardgaming to keep a lot of my friends interested who generally only engage with one or the other the game looks to be shaping up to be quite good although there have been a few controversies along the way not least the ridiculous change to grimshalla i have high hopes for this game and hope sfg don t disappoint the other project i am going to pursue is warhammer 40 000 age of sigmar daemons of slaanesh i started wargaming about 20 odd years ago and it was games workshop that brought me into the hobby i had steadily drifted away from games workshop games but 2018 really peaked by interest again and i m really enthused to pick up both 40k and aos i ve played a few games of both towards the end of last year an thoroughly enjoyed them slaanesh has always held an interest and with some of the recent releases and rumoured future releases i m back baby i really want to get at least a small army painted and on the table in 2019 and have a couple of friends locally who are doing the same so hopefully we will keep each other on track i am hoping to use the blog this year to continue to post some guild ball content lore and games as well as record my progress with slaanesh until next time posted on janu...
