    @shattershell I'd like to add you to our roster of Knights. Please take a look at the first post and tell me where I should fit you in.

    I'd say these days my main game is 8th. I also collect Horus Heresy and Necromunda stuff. But they're on the back burner while I focus on LIZARDS.

    I dropped out of the hobby for a bit in 2018-2019, but I've picked it back up since the pandemic hit. And I have been playing 8th edition exclusively.

    I'm glad you enjoyed it... it was a NIGHTBRINGER original!

    And she plays Warhammer... so prophecy fulfilled? (from a certain point of view) :D

    I know, and it makes sense, as AoS is the "current" system.

    I did think of it. However, keep in mind that:
    • Stark was outnumbered 2 to 1
    • Stark actually had the battle won, but refused to kill Cap, which gave Cap the chance to turn the tide
    • by the end of phase 3 (Infinity War and Endgame) it turns out that Stark was right and Cap was wrong. They then needed Stark to save the day!
    So I think the meme works as is. AoS "won", but WFB is the correct system (proven by Total War Warhammer's popularity) and in the end, they bring back WFB in the form of ToW to save the day!

    To be fair, both were right on certain points, and both were wrong on other ones.
    Funnily, in the comics it was Cap the one who was winning, but he realized he was pushing too far and surrended.

    Stark was proven overall to be correct by the end of Infinity War and the start of End Game. And then it was Stark who was most responsible for fixing things (creation of time travel and the climactic snap). Cap helped, no doubt, but Stark was easily the more valuable team member.

    It always reminds me of this:

    Cap had courage and a big heart, but without the Super Soldier serum (which he had no part in creating) he would have been nothing. He owes his abilities to the Stark family. Tony created his suits of armour. While undoubtedly aided by his father (inherited wealth, the outline for the creation of a new element), Tony was still a self made hero. Tony can perfect time travel and is responsible for countless technical innovations, while Captain America can throw a shield very well. Brains > Brawn
