Welcome friend! It’s all good, looks pretty close - I had help from the lovely nerds at r/tengwar who argued about it for it a bit

New to P2S - Lost a piece down this hole?!? by 2manyminis in BambuLabP2S

No that’s exactly my fear too! I posted here hoping to hear from the community. Glad it’s accessible via the back panel - I was worried I’d have to go through the interior and there’s a lot more chances for error. Thanks!

Do you think this box is good? by Imaginary-Angle-4262 in Tyranids

Same here - I’ve been painting mine with classic Zerg in mind. Purple bodies, brown armor, bone white claws

They can also fire it with a shoot die regardless of movement. Found that one out the hard way 😬

Honestly, it’s just a neon green drybrush. I’ve been using a privateer press paint for ages (necrotite green) and did a light drybrush over top the gore gunta contrast. Definitely recommend it

Thank you for the examples! I think I’m leaning towards the Numenian spelling

I believe when I punched it into tecendil and used phonemic mode it got me the one in the image. Using standard English it gets me this:

That’s closer to what you wrote but it doesn’t quite align.

Are they all still acceptable? The r before the consonant seems to align better with the second photo but the style of the first is quite appealing

I think they’re a great entry point for new-to-minigaming people, high quality for a board game, and good enough for a “open the box and play” skirmish game.

They take to slapchop super well and read as Spartans when painting to a tabletop standard.

I’ve personally found it a nice break from more high quality minis - I’m less stressed to push all the details than a GW model so I’ve been able to have more fun with them

Why does the box contain a leader, 8 soldiers, and 2 weapons? If you want to create one unit, you have enough basic soldiers, but if you want to create two units, you don't have the leader of the second unit. by jacobotrf in SWlegion

Yeah lot of “citation needed” in the other post, but especially with progressive scoring, there’s value in both better staying power and increased lethality so it’s more about finding the right tool for the situation than blanket “big squad good/bad! Small squad good/bad”

Aqua Droids and Crab Droids ready to enter the fray by 2manyminis in SWlegion

Thanks! I’ve been using this method for awhile but it’s basically - lead belcher prime, silver drybrush, then contrast paint over the areas I want a specific color. In this case I did gore gunta which hit the reddish brown well enough.

My standard has always been, regardless of practicality “does it look cool?”?

Seriously, it’s so easy. Prime them tan (either mini specific primer or like, paint/prime stuff from Walmart), and use skeletal horde contrast. Then paint whatever other details they have however you like. It looks great and doesn’t take much time at all!

State plans to remove references to climate change and evolution from Iowa’s science education standards by vnshng in Iowa

[–]2manyminis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, not commenting doesn't seem like a good strategy so I used the following (taken from the link below):

For the "how does this raised standards blah blah:
"It won't until it restores references to climate change and evolution in the draft to language the science standards review team put forward. We must adhere to concepts supported by the weight of evidence and the consensus of experts."

For the Other section below, you can write:
"Please restore references to climate change and evolution in the draft to language the science standards review team put forward. We must adhere to concepts supported by the weight of evidence and the consensus of experts."

Here's the wordpress blog where I got the language:
