I say it's the 'rule of 3' that ruined comp, since it's no longer possible to truly "stack" your army for a singular task...

Even then, apparently 3 was too much and aircraft got limited to 2... and then ONE!!

Imagine if you WERE an airforce player and now you can't even play

I always liked the idea of air, but its one of those things that you don't see often in actual armies. At least in my area. But that being said, the Valkrie is the reason I wanna get into Astra Militarum as its the best looking flyer in the game IMO.

i've been really tempted to get some Necron... like a TON of Tombblades, but I have no one to play with (plus I'm antisocial)

Necrons are fun(and stupid easy) to paint.

Eh, I knew how Space Marines play. I just found it boring... Not much variety in the troop choices. They're all pretty tough, pretty strong, not exceptional at anything.. Closest to an exception are the terminators, loved those guys. Could recklessly deep strike them behind the entire enemy army and they'd manage to survive for most of the battle all on their own while the rest of my army got into position and wrecked from the front.
But aside from terminators... all the space marine stuff was so overpriced (in point value). key to victory ended up being fielding as few specialist troops as possible to deal w/ the stuff they're needed for (like heavy weapons to blow up tanks), and just max out the number of regular dudes w/ bolters otherwise. I usually just won battles from sheer withering boltgun fire and holding ground from charges w/ tons of basic space marines.... It was effective, but super boring.

I like more specialized or melee-focused armies. Eldar have that craft world where you can use more squads of the aspect warriors and less of the guardians... Chaos just has all sorts of wacky stuff. Tyranids were pretty cool, too.

Sounds like you may also like Custodes, might be worth looking into if you wanna get into a new army.

Is that the same as this one? I want to get this one, waiting to see if it goes on sale. But it looks less expensive than the one you bought on sale so I'm wondering if there's a difference?

mine is 10 quart dual basket. I think the size and the built in temp probe with temp cooking is them only difference.

That being said, I haven't used my temp probe since the cooking is preset to items you cook, which is weird. I would rather is be something you could set yourself.

I wanted to play WH Fantasy because I always preferred medieval fantasy to sci-fi. But all my friends wanted to play or were playing 40K.
I wanted to play as Eldar or Chaos, but my friends had a bunch of regular Space Marines they got w/ paint sets or something and gave to me for cheap.
Well, I had infantry, but to actually have a competitive/functional army, I needed tanks. And heavy weapons units. And assault troops. And terminators.
And that's the story of how I ended up spending like $500 on an army I was only mildly interested in, in a game I was only mildly interested in.
Still got said Space Marine army in storage, haven't touch it since I was a teenager, lol

Yeah I can see stuff like that happening a lot.

One big problem 40k has is there isn't a clear cut "This army plays like this" and so I don't think I know many people who still play they army they started with.

I started with Tau because I am a whore for robots, but they kinda fell off with me.

Lokarin posted...

I have marines... .... that's about it

I never really liked them. I mean I can see the appeal but there's just too many units so with balance changes its likely that your favorite units might get moved in and out to the meta.

Started with Tau, then Custodes, dabbed a little in Necrons, and now Astra Militarum is looking hella sexy....

They are too damn expensive for me to be jumping around so much.

I'm not a fan of ranch, but I learned how to make a honey hot sauce. I kinda stopped using buffalo sauce all together now that I have the honey hot one

I love honey based hot sauces but I do not like how much of a mess honey is. No matter how careful I am I still wind up with everything sticky so I don't bother with the stuff much any more :(

MechaKirby posted...

I did some wings the other day and hot damn they were perfect

I will say they make the best wings. Better than any wing place I been to.

Only problem is IMO you can't beat wing stops ranch so if they sold that in stores it would be a done deal.

Its GREAT for chicken, specifically wings, Cornish hens, and thighs. But honestly for frozen stuff like chicken strips and jalapeno poppers and other stuff like that I don't see much of a difference than in the oven. Plus in the oven you can cook WAY more than in the air fryer.

Also, the one I bought is on sale again for half off if anyone is interested:

Conversely, if you're going to buy an item anyway and you know it's going to go on sale at some point, you might as well save the money.

If I was going to buy something means I want, or most likely need it now.

Nothing. Because if I would only buy an item if it was on sale, then I don't need it.

Honestly I hated it. The breakable weapons is stupid, more so since most things reset during a blood moon so you can go get them again if they have a set spawn. So the whole concept is stupid.

The game has many recipes but you only really use like three.

And the game world is vastly empty and only real reason to "explore" is to track down stupid plant creatures to solve grade school level "puzzles" for prices of literal shit to use to expand your inventory slots.

The "shrines" are plentiful however all are simple to solve puzzles with a couple that MIGHT take a whole three extra minutes to solve.

Overall I consider it one of the biggest regrets of video game purchases I've ever made.

So far with the story mode I have two big glitches. Convoy twice I got stuck in an endless loop and had finally was able to break the loop on the third attempt. And now on the mission Alone I am stuck where the environment isn't loading and you can only see random assets loading.

Apparently they both are sorta common.

Fantastic.

That's the thing. You spit out shitty topics and shitty comments!

So I do twice as much as you. Nice!

SoreChasm posted...

Not spam the forum with shitty topics?

And be like you and only spam the topics with shitty comments?

There was a movie where people wanted illnesses from celebrities and also ate meat that was cloned from them...

Reminds me of that. Can't remember the name of the movie though.

I've had venison steaks a couple times many years ago, and they were delicious.

They are very good.

SoreChasm posted...

And yet you keep making all these topics!

Gee, I mean what else would you do on an internet forum? I am not like Cacciato that jerks off with a switch on his wrist tied to his F5 key so he is always on top of every topic that gets posted. Pretty sure he gets off only when he is the first comment.

I wish more games had tedious everyday activities like going to the bathroom, quickly cooking a subpar meal after a long day of work, deskwarming in front of a computer screen while racking up unpaid overtime, brushing and flossing your teeth, and sleeping in real time (none of that bullshit fast forwarding while sleeping). It really breaks the immersion when I realize my character has been running around none stop for three weeks with no food or sleep or ever having to take a shit like some sort of cracked out tweaker.

I could see a German publisher doing a game like this.

No idea who that is. But shame on him/her.

I wish more turn based RPG's had the Addition system from Legend of Dragoon. It makes the game more interesting.

My guess is they think it'll get them more attention. Someone "attempting" to harm priceless works of art would get more global media coverage than most other things people do to Protest.

Hell someone put a bomb in a statue in San Antonio and I only heard about it from ANOTHER city's news report.

Dude says he doesnt care about PotD but is making like 4 new topics every day.

At least I have a life and not responding to topics within 60 seconds of them being created like that person you quoted loves doing.

What does he do, sit at his computer hitting F5 every minute while his mom cooking him pizza bites?

Our local liquor stores MAY, and may is a strong word, a couple of small company cans or for sale but never anything more than that.

Never really had the stuff. Is it a shelf life issue or something? Or just not that popular?

My wife is obsessed with glow in the dark stuff. When she had her own place she had about 1000 of those glow in the dark stars on her ceiling.

you must be giving off weeb vibes in that case, or have negative non-supportive people in your life - when I planned a trip to Japan, I was very supported and encouraged by a lot of people. I had a really fun going away party with lots of people.

Ever think they were happy you were leaving?

I think its so stupid. I mean who wants Taco that cost as much as a sit down restaurant after delivery fees and tip.

If it was a debit card linked directly to your bank account, you'd be screwed.

Debit cards hold the same insurance as credit cards. So you aren't liable for any purchases they make as well. But it is something better to catch early and not later.

I been watching youtube videos of people showing their trips on the trains, events, and the awesome places to eat. And when I tell people I wanna visit or live in Japan they all like "Whatever weeb"

Its like I am sorry Japan has more interesting places to eat and fast god damn trains compared to the US.

I buy w/ my credit card, get the % cash back, and have auto pay set up to take the balance out the day it's due from my bank account. It's literally zero effort.

I had my credit card number stolen locally four times, so I check my balances often. So I just pay off the balance since I have the app open anyway.

The sub reddits are cool. The porn subreddits are great for kinks that aren't seen on porn sites too often. They special interest hobbies seem more popular than Facebook groups in most cases(art ones seem slower though).

What I don't like however is on a web browser the whole clicking to see the whole image if someone posts a large painting or something and then having to click AGAIN to see the full size image.

Also, the whole reply chains is something to get used to. Seeing how some of them linked together is awkward at times since I am not used to it.

Just buy stuff w/ credit card like you would've w/ cash, pay in full (don't treat it like a loan for money you don't have), and just...keep doing that. The amount of time it takes is the only "hard" part.

Honestly thats what I used to do. Pay my bills with my bank account and use my Amazon Credit card for everything since they give 3% cash back on all purchases and 5% on their web site. So I would buy stuff and submit a payment the next day. I would almost always get 100 bucks a month from the cash back.

Credit scores are stupid anyway. You can have someone who made every car payment and rent on time but might have had credit card problems or something that caused their credit to say they can't get a mortgage on a house thats probably 100-300 a month cheaper than their current rent.

Never look but I know my credit card limit goes up 3 to 10k every year for the past 15 years? So I imagine its going the right direction.

They should rename "Well done" to "Please burn the shit out of my food"

I mean honestly "well done" pizza should be a little char to the pepperoni and edges of the crust. At least in my eyes.

It almost always mean nothing. The two that stick out to me are Wingstop and Domino's. Wing stop well done has never been different for me on the wings and Dominos "well done" has only ever meant the pizza will be greasier since the pepperoni rendered out more fat but not enough to make them crispy.

I guess I will do 4 first. Problem is the 3D remaster has better reviews compared to the 2d remake on mobile. But all the websites say to do the 2d remake.

Also, the 2d one is like 3 dollars more lol

And if you grind up beef and put it in a crust along with vegetables and gravy, then you have a cow pie.

Go to a dairy farm and ask for one and eat the first thing they bring.

What kind of jerky do you like? Personally I like the soft chewy kind. I don't like the super dry tough kinds.

You're welcome.

Which should I look at for Mobile/Tablet?

Get the golden ticket from Last Action Hero, go into Honey I Shrunk the Kids, use the ray on the couch and problem solved.

The idea of having an interesting city's infrastructure map or maybe a rail map in my office is seriously appealing to me.

you didnt see them in the theaters? They were an epic event

I'm not into high fantasy that much.

Games: FPS, vehicle combat(tanks and planes) RPG. Strategy, adventure. Not in any particular order

Movies: comedy, smart action, dramas.

I watched lord of the rings late and when I did i watched the extended. I enjoyed it. Never seen the original cut though.

A review platform for products and services from other websites.

There's a lot of websites that have review sections, which the idea of that is pretty stupid since they have control over what's posted or kept on their site. So a third party website where the owner of the product doesn't have that control would be great.
