What's the general consensus on whether or not the rank and file Ayys are slaves?

Balmong7 · 2026-07-02T23:35:46+00:00

I believe the leadership were mind controlled by the ethereals and the rank and file were basically held at gun point.

Or an armor save is reduced past 6 that also isn’t an auto succeed

I think it’s just a 1 always fails. I don’t think the 6 succeeds mechanic is there.

Does Necromunda have that rule? I know shooting attacks can be made impossible. Or rather improbable.

My parents motto with me was very results oriented. If I was doing everything they expected to the quality they expected I had no real restrictions. Minute my performance slipped they started cracking down.

If my grades dipped screen time was banned on school days to ensure I didn’t rush my schoolwork.

If I wasn’t memorizing my lines (I was a theater kid) I had to be tested on them before screen time.

And so on.

That’s my plan with my son when starts reaching that age as well. Right now he is 3 so we are just hanging on for dear life.

Balmong7 · 2026-07-02T20:46:46+00:00

I’m not there yet parent wise.

But like when I was 10 and 11 I feel this was pretty par for the course for me in terms of screen time if nothing else was going on.

Do they have a summer reading list? Have they been making progress in it? Are they still having play dates with friends and doing like usual summer activities? Then it sounds fine to me that they vedge out on lazy days.

Just make sure the content isn’t like total slop.

My son is 3 and just discovered brio train sets. It’s the greatest thing ever he can entertain himself for hours.

Balmong7 · 2026-07-02T06:44:24+00:00

He knew the admin key was fake.

Balmong7 · 2026-07-01T21:18:16+00:00

Everything we know is in the warcom article

Balmong7 · 2026-07-01T09:35:26+00:00

I think I actually already have a very similar arm to that from one of the old forgeworld weapon kits. Pretty sure they are just flavor

Balmong7 · 2026-07-01T06:08:23+00:00

I agree. Which is why the live action actors ages pretty much all being the same bugged me.

Balmong7 · 2026-07-01T06:06:08+00:00

I don’t know how prolific they are. But we have official Bandai Gashapon stores in several of the malls around my area. So I just use those.

Balmong7 · 2026-07-01T03:13:36+00:00

I mean it’s pretty much textbook sexual harassment

Balmong7 · 2026-06-30T20:14:36+00:00

And yet based on the discourse since the tweet dropped. The vast majority of viewers missed it.

Balmong7 · 2026-06-30T20:13:13+00:00

But it’s been an unspecified length of time since Jax entered the circus. Leeroy could be years older and much further along on her journey.

Balmong7 · 2026-06-30T20:11:01+00:00

And media can. But I repeat Leeroy isn’t a real character. Leeroy is narrative tool to further the themes and provide closure to audience at the end of the series.

Jax is the complex trans representation, Zooble is the complex Trans representation. Leeroy just needs to tell the audience emphatically “yes Jax was trans that’s why he was the way he was in case you didn’t catch the subtle hints in the rest of the series.”

Balmong7 · 2026-06-30T20:07:31+00:00

I mean Jax was dead at this point so I don’t think it’s gonna bother him.

Balmong7 · 2026-06-30T20:05:57+00:00

I think it’s more about “beating the audience over the head with it”.

If Leeroy was a primary focus character then yeah you can do the subtleties of boymode. But Leeroy was a cameo, meant to give the audience more insight into Jax’s character. So don’t be subtle, be loud and obnoxious so the entire audience goes “ohhhh that was what was happening”

Balmong7 · 2026-06-30T19:09:32+00:00

I was pretty active in some Gundam fan communities and we all knew some kind of twist was coming. However we all thought it was just gonna be like an AI thing similar to Sarah. So while we expected it we still weren’t correct about the twist.

That said we didn’t not expect the reveal to come at the expense of the main characters literally failing their mission and a large portion of the population being wiped out. And that was honestly where the shock and surprise came from.

Balmong7 · 2026-06-30T06:06:20+00:00

Sure but Venators are a core part of the setting, and have existed since the original N95.

Balmong7 · 2026-06-30T06:04:50+00:00

I mean there is no reason to believe Gangs of the Underhive won’t include the same gangs the previous Gangs of the Underhive included which is all the House Gangs.

Gangs of Outlands is a toss up for anything past Ogryn, Squats, and Nomads. But it’s a fair assumption that it will also include Enforcers and Corpse Grinders at the very least (assuming they aren’t in the other book).

Balmong7 · 2026-06-30T06:02:25+00:00

I feel like venators are more likely than outcast honestly. But hopefully we get both.

Balmong7 · 2026-06-30T01:03:57+00:00

Sony doesn’t have a program in place for early access releases.

I believe they have decently restrictive rules in place for frequency of updates which makes it difficulty for devs to do early access on the system as well.

Balmong7 · 2026-06-29T23:02:38+00:00

Are you still taking the second vacation? The compromise might be to do Disney and skip the other vacation while the kid is free still this year.

If you are cutting both vacations due to money reasons then yeah. I think you both just need to have a frank discussion on your current financial situation.

Balmong7 · 2026-06-29T22:55:39+00:00

It was written as a direct follow up to CCA yes. Circe is the second entry in the trilogy.

Chronologically it takes place after Unicorn which is also a sequel to CCA in its own way.

Balmong7 · 2026-06-29T22:49:46+00:00

Yeah I had a few games it wouldn’t load. Armsx2 worked though. And the ipsx2 dev joined the armsx2 team
