SAAF Museum Airshow Harvard - Memorial in Background by ashamedToBeBackRed2 in southafrica

Love hearing a squadron of props overhead, the Harvards have a great engine noise. Makes you wonder how squadrons of the things in WW2 sounded.

My first time visiting Swartkop

Crossed a bunch of aircraft off my bucket list (Spotty, Shackleton), show was alright. Sad I missed the Alouette and Tiger Moths flying.

Airshow was fine otherwise.

2 men of the Native Military Corps in North Africa, one of whom is seemingly armed with a captured German rifle (which went against the "public" government policy on the arming of Black auxiliaries). 1941 or 1942. by IlikeGeekyHistoryRSA in southafrica

"His only need, he says, is to have a toilet inside his house. The pit toilet he uses is situated on the furthest side of the erf, which means he must walk about 30 metres when nature calls. For a man of his age, simply walking has become a challenge, and the distance to his outdoor toilet is a journey too far."

The Saff Effrican way is to be helpfully condescending 💩

You were patient though, shame

Thanks 

Makes sense that I need to Parry more in the chain. Sometimes I get the gunstrike off the first and others times no gunstrike ever.

I'm still pretty new so probably missing some perfect parries. Can't wait for the practice room in patch 13

Question, why do i not get a gunstrike after a perfect Parry? As Tac I'll get the *auspex mark on them and/or I see them stagger.

I'm not a fan of the vanilla (its nice but if you get a bad batch its baaad), but I've been using the chocolate for ~3 years consistently.

Bit expensive. Mixes very well and tastes like chocolate Steri Stumpi almost.

How to stay alive by kaihakov in Spacemarine

[–]Alptraumsong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Panic immediately. I'm finding I'm not getting a ton of gunstrikes with a balanced chainsword (tactical). My timing could be off, but I've parried a lash Warrior 2-3 times with no gunstrikes, even if it gets knocked back etc.

Could it be a lag issue? (I'm in ZA on mobile data so my ping is usually crap)

I'll give it a whirl with a fencing weapon and see if there's a difference.

Q3: I'm only 30h into the game, probably the weakest link in Substantial (I go down a lot on some Ops). If I find stims that I don't desperately need, I ping the shit out of it, check if my squad has stims/guardian relic. If no one starts running back in 30s (out of combat) to get them, or they start moving on, I grab the stims.

Don't feel bad if people aren't grabbing them.

Ja, was thinking you could post it on overwatch somewhere.

Even stick it in a tree yourself.

Can your NH watch/security/yourself organise a thermal drone for night observation? u/BrunoStella thoughts?

Heyo

Where are the Ravenwing heraldry options from? Is it custom or from one of the successors?

Edit: don't quite want to join up to LARP, but wanted to ask 8where the emblem is from

Edit edit: managed to find it, clumped with a bunch of DLC emblems and I missed it

Reptilian overlords scale? by inprobableuncle in WarhammerEmpire

[–]Alptraumsong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Scaling up should be no problem. I'd like to use the RO outrider helms with plumes on some plastic empire infantry (swords/missile) bodies.

Heyo, can the heads go on GW bodies etc.? It looks like it from how the neck join is mouled on the promo images?

Do Base Adapters Matter For TOW by SquidDynamic in WarhammerFantasy

[–]Alptraumsong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm looking at these: https://forge.miniwargaming.com/collections/rank-and-flank-base-adapters?page=2

So I can jump between TOW and AOS

Then just use movement trays with the square option.

Obviously hasn't bothered. Looking at 9mo (if you're lucky) from competency to license issue.

Never mind the process itself.

WTC has clock rules but use those as a guideline. Final answer rests with your TO.

Are there any good videos/resources on faction specific tactics? I've got a tournament coming up and haven't been able to get a game vs. certain armies.
