Wasn't complaining, I already told you this on MSN. I made a discussion of how I always get characters that have some form of complete damage resistance, which your character did.
There was no way to fight against that, and that's all I've got to say about it.

Well, it's crossing references which is one of the best ways to make something absolutely broken.
Since technically the abara s**t is viral, it could be bestowed by Nurgle ( since he's in charge of sicknesses and presumably viruses ) which means that... you can have a crazy abara-warhammer character.
At that point you really have to look at the Staff and ask them why they decided to allow it. Given that people in Abara can use their hair to cut people in modern body armor in half, without any sign of effort.

[ Cognitive Genome ] It's no different than Jak abusing Kharn and killing half of commerce a few years back. Rather than taking the interesting fluff elements and making balanced (but still powerful) characters, they take only the wankiest stuff and wank it. It happens with EVERY piece of fiction anyone draws inspiration/elements/etc. from. Funnily enough, though, bone powers aren't one of them, unless he's trying to go for a controlled mutation deal - which wouldn't work due to the bones would grow in ways he couldn't fully control in such a brief period of time.This is also what I was aiming for in my character, but, meh. Say and think what you want I suppose. All I know, is, Striker is complaining about my character being overpowered, and me abusing my powers. When my character was accepted, and it was fine by every single judge. Dragon/Mutation. You be the judge. Which is more powerful?

Striker.
Don't you have a sword?
Or Dragon mode?
EDIT: Also, Austin, shouldn't you post your character's death instead of Vin doing it for you?

Cog had judged my character before. You act like he goes in as a full-dragon and ******** you up.
He starts human in armor, and has to be allowed to stand there to transform? Is that broken or OP? If you're retarded enough to allow it, then sure, maybe it is.
The ability to form thousands of 2-3 foot long spikes INSTANTLY that can't be broken and can throw themselves through enchanted platemail and everything else with no resistance, is completely okay, right?
And I understand it made it through judging, but sometimes, s**t like that has to be pointed out to them when it gets abused; abused exactly like you did. You took a character that could have been an interesting concept and purposely broke it so you could kill someone's character, which just happened to be mine.
And now I'll receive consequences for fighting an over-powered character with no way of being injured.

This is why I hate Warhammer, even though it's done nothing to deserve it. Assholes just take elements from it and break everything, use a HERP DERP justification and j**z their e-dicks on everyone who ********.

Honestly, I didn't want to get involved.
But a 280 lbs guy in spikey plate armor who can turn into a dragon?
Why do you think you win Striker? Because you are awesome?
Don't kid yourself.
You got spiked a hundred thousand million times which was pretty amusing and then when you got a taste of what it is like to face a character that is nearly impossible to beat unless you go OUT of your way to avoid certain things and fight away from his spikes, you whined about it.
Its one thing if you bring it up with the judges, get your DQ or get told the spikes are legit and move on.
Its another when you complain like an eleven year old while you bring 3000 year old dragons into a fighting tournament and then whine when you get a** raped by powers you didn't see coming that were also over powered.

Fierach Striker. Don't you have a sword? Or Dragon mode? EDIT: Also, Austin, shouldn't you post your character's death instead of Vin doing it for you? Read the issues above, and I couldn't post his death because Vintrict did it while I was asleep early this morning. I posted in the help thread at like 4 AM and then went to bed, so I didn't have to argue with Sin and his girlfriend any longer, because I couldn't just talk to him.

I can't stress enough that all of this is a byproduct of HoH Staff crying that half dragons are overpowered.
Even though they're a basic race selection in D&D 4e.

If you kill an opponent, then ***** u dum.
That's all. I don't care about character balance (in the context of this discussion).

Striker Nightmare Hrm.. So now, I want to get Vince resurrected as soon as possible so I can get his recuperation under-way before the first round. Though I am curious about these consequences I get for fighting a guy who could instantly spawn three foot spikes every where on his body when you looked at him, literally allowing me to do no damage, even on a character as strong as Vince. Sounds like someone tried to be Sokoya and failed. Hard.

Fiend. Let me explain this once more, because obviously, people are just looking at "Huhr, dragon!" People roleplay humans that are as large as Vince in plate mail all the time with hueg swords and other weapons.
That's what Vince is, UNLESS, you're retarded enough to simply stand there and watch him transform. In the past, I was able to perform standard parrys and dodges and still accumulate energy, but that was nerfed this year. In the rules now, people can throw a pebble at my character, and it interrupts a charge.
I don't want to hear how that is broken, because if you actually fight him, you're fighting him as a standard human with no abilities other than swordsmanship. I don't understand why you're jumping on Sin's band-wagon of hating me for a supposed OP character that has been judged by multiple people, both Darth and Cog, and has been labeled fair.

Kazyan This is why I hate Warhammer, even though it's done nothing to deserve it. Assholes just take elements from it and break everything, use a HERP DERP justification and j**z their e-dicks on everyone who ******** class="clear"> This is done with every series. Warhammer is fortunately obscure enough that no one does much with it. Though, it is infuriating when you do use it and make balanced, entertaining characters that people like (even ones who've hated WH in the past), only to see people get intrigued, look into it and then start the butchering. Anime is the biggest offender, though. Black Wolf Inn, anyone? I'm still damn surprised people haven't raped comic book fluff, yet. It's the most ridiculous kind out there.

Darth and Cog aren't my end all be all of fair.
Cog plays a GIANT human who apparently can eat shot after shot after shot after shot with no ill effects except HURR.
His newer character is cool though.
Darth is a Native American. We took his land.
((Before this goes out of hand, both of those were jokes. Jokes.))
You got nurfed for this tournament, which I was unaware of. On the other hand, in other tournaments you could just loldefend everything until you turned into a dragon.
Also, I agree that Sin's character was retarded over powered. I was more making fun of you for whining endlessly. Its over man. Get over it.
