Re: Some changes to the forum are coming

Thanks for the report. That should be fixed now.

I will try to customize the style in the coming days. I think a slightly more neutral background, a pink highlight and our logos should get us going :)

Re: Some changes to the forum are coming

Yeah. The style is lost. This seems to be the best replacement. I will be adding logos and customisation in the coming days.
My hope is that, by working on this style, future compatibility will improve

Re: Some changes to the forum are coming

I'll postpone the migration to the start of next week.
My wife's taking me on a weekend :D I would hate to rush the migration to get it done in time and then disappear, leaving you all without support for 3 days.

Re: Forum Resurrection Advice

For me, it's all about cost and what it takes to make it work :D
Other than that it's all good by me. So far, I have only found services considerably more expensive than we have now. I am looking into AWS Lightsail, which seems to be relatively cheap, but might also prove technically more challenging.

Summer Clean-Up

Greetings, While working on the webserver, I noticed our footprint was quite big. I was wondering if we could clean up some of the following: ⋅  The 9th Age codexes from version 0.9. We hosted these when T9A was launched to help them overcome the bandwidth. But I don't think these are stil...

Re: Some changes to the forum are coming

I redid the migration, this time to phpBB 3.2, so that a potential migration to Discourse remains supported. EDIT: While this should allow us to upgrade the PHP Version .. I just learned that it supports only up to php 7.2, and we need at least php 7.3 to get rid of the additional support expense. I...

Re: Some changes to the forum are coming

On ulthuan.net, I've been informed that a migration for phpBB 3.3 to Discourse is not supported, but a migration from phpBB 3.2 to Discourse is. If preferred I can upgrade to phpBB 3.2 instead of 3.3, which should be sufficient to remove the support cost. That way we remove the cost (and urgency) an...

Some changes to the forum are coming

Greetings everyone, The site will be undergoing some changes. First and foremost, the forum will be updated to a newer version. I have delayed this upgrade for as long as I could because it might break the style of the forum. Unfortunately, the platform is becoming so old we're being charged extra b...

Re: Forum Resurrection Advice

If you don't mind me asking, do you use an online host or do you provide your own webserver? For our case, we would have to change hosting plans - that much is certain. It's not clear whether we can run both systems without doubling the cost. The new plan would have a limit on disk space so it might...

Re: Forum Resurrection Advice

Well.... We'll be forced to change forum system sooner or later. We're already paying a monthly premium to keep this one working, because we're using a very old version of PHP. At some point, even that option will disappear. It was on my list of things to do... But it would require a migration for D...

Re: New player and super noob druchii general! But i hate HE

We're still here I'm not experienced against Empire or Orcs and Goblins, and they can make wildly different armies. I think I only got 1 game against Orcs and Goblins, and I was surprised by the power of their magic and just how insanely many models they can put down compared to us. They aren't as f...

Re: 9th Age Combat Calculator

Done. I added:
* Re-roll successful hits
* Battle Focus
The combination of Poison and BattleFocus leads to 1 Poison hit and 1 extra hit from battle focus

I added place-holders for re-rolls of successful wounds and armour saves, but they have yet to be implemented.

Re: 9th Age Combat Calculator

Technically, such situations are possible with specific combinations of special rules and spells. I don't know if I would bother to cover this tbh... Though rare, it may actually break my model. Battle Focus is the most peculiar one, especially in combination with Poison. I was about to implement B...

Re: 9th Age Combat Calculator

The re-roll successful rolls will get implemented soon. I'm still working on the battle focus, but as I was working out the math I noticed it has a peculiar problem in combination with poison. Which brings me to the question: What if you have battle focus and/or poison on a 7+? I assume: * Roll for ...

Re: 9th Age Combat Calculator

One relatively simple thing to change would be to change the "re-roll" button for all four rolls to: no re-roll re-roll 1 re-roll fails re-roll successful This would also make the "holy attacks" button redundant. Is it possible to have to re-roll successful rolls and be able to ...

Re: New player and super noob druchii general! But i hate HE

Executioners are easier, generally. They are cheaper, and attack at strength 6 with killing blow, and re-roll 1's to wound. Their only weakness is the limited number of attacks and no re-rolls on the hit. Against HE's they gain a re-roll in the first round thanks to hatred. That said.. Black Guard m...
