why can i fail to roll for xeno, just make slots unlimited and limit to T1
i come home from a day of HARD manual labour and i want to play my favourite game. i want to hurt marines and roundend them and ruin their fun and i roll for xeno and I fail. i think to my self like “did i fail to ready up?”. No. There’s just limited Xeno slots ???
“Join as Hive” and “Your position would be 5th in the larva queue if you observed and were eligible to be a xeno” why??? why are there so few slots, how is it possible to fail to roll the horde and swarm faction?
you never once think in the movies “oh man it’s so good that Marines outnumber the Xenos”
this would insanely fuck over the balance of the entire game. Xenos aren’t the horde faction, marines are. being able to infinitely respawn every 5 minutes as a T1 would basically make it impossible for marines to win. killed all the T3s in the main battle? well sorry bud but they all just respawned as runners and now 10 marines are going to get capped in one screech.
Xeno larpers complaining about “xeno slots” while the Corporate Mains out here are fighting for their fucking lifes for that single CL roll almost every round, escpecially on mid-to-high pop. And the only way to circumvent that is to join as a W-Y fax responder instead.
Give CL five slots, convert a quarter of the Almayer’s upper deck into an office compartment.
one of the weirdest things about this game is the sides play out opposite how you expect. marines are a zerg like force where you throw you body into danger with no regard for safety. xenos are extremely individualized and your own life is worth more than anything else
