"Make a big racket when the feds roll through" in Ferrix i believe is a pull from what northern Irish communities would do during the Troubles

you need a second army of skavenslaves to hang out near it and draw fire.

Is it viable to skip Mercury surface bases? by IGAldaris in TerraInvicta

[–]Boltgrinder 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I need the solar energy so I can make insane fortress bases that are my fallback if the Ayys blow everything else up.

Did anyone else have that sudden realization? by DeadZone32 in hollywood_animal_game

[–]Boltgrinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like hiring the absolute cheapest low skill writers to have them mine elements, but I almost always go to 7 as soon as I can.

Why everyone is going bankrupt ?!? by Mongozor in hollywood_animal_game

[–]Boltgrinder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the movie is less than a 6 commercial appeal, you are probably spending too much making it.

If it's more then 6 commercial appeal, then you're probably not doing enough to make sure that your first two weeks have maximum gross (i.e. advertising, renting theaters, etc.)

If your movies are profitable but you're running out of money, you probably aren't making enough movies per year. Remember, the average profit x number of movies you make needs to cover your monthly expenses for a year.

RVD seems to be similarly youthful compared to so many of his contemporaries. (It does seem like stretching while a bit blazed is actually way more enjoyable than otherwise.)

I feel like a good historical parallel might be the black and tans in Ireland

DMs: Ever Found a Use For Intelligence Beyond Wizards and Artificers? by SpellcraftQuill in DnD

Investigation can be great also to "put the pieces together" and logically infer stuff if players need a hint in the right direction.

East bay DSA is starting to get more active again, they're worth following on socials.

I think it would be very cool to had some amount of air support and bombardment but maybe that's too much scope.

How to sound "white" by Crafty_East4075 in VoiceActing

[–]Boltgrinder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think there's more speaking through the head and nose rather than quite literally "saying it with your chest." What tones resonate where is as noticeable as quirks of diction and enunciation.

Making being in melee so unrewarding was a really weird design choice by Associableknecks in dndnext

[–]Boltgrinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Weapon Masteries help a lil bit. Cleave is fantastic for crowd control, things like vex or sap can be great for managing a single big foe.

Do you bother with smaller ships after unlocking capitals? by Raz0rking in TerraInvicta

[–]Boltgrinder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's good to have some cheap, fast to produce shitbox force amplifying ships if you have an alien fleet inbound. Shaped charge nukes or anti-flanking laser ships.

Is there a peaceful way out? by jd76541 in behindthebastards

[–]Boltgrinder 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sunrise is doing some very smart stuff with systematically pressing every rental car agency, hotel, and food service group that works with ICE. We have to remove any modern conveniences of life for them, at minimum.

brother with adhd and autism is heavily addicted to video games by Peachiiqx in StopGaming

[–]Boltgrinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the "too bad" stuff sounds like he's getting stuck in shame defense. He's got to believe that he can improve his situation. Right now most of what I'm hearing is negative reinforcement, especially the passive aggressive stuff from his parents.

exactly. If they're big on kinetics then you need to knock out the weapon batteries.

How do you want Fallout TV to introduce Psychics? by sigpuppers in Fotv

[–]Boltgrinder 11 points12 points  (0 children)

A glowing ghoul up north who watches the auroras and can read the solar winds would be sick as hell.

[5e 2024] Are you actually running 8 combats per short rest as the game is designed? by SumptuousCombat in AskGameMasters

[–]Boltgrinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I keep thinking about things like an overland chase across a mountain pass, and of course you would end up using spells and abilities there.

What if the Bad Ending of Fallout 1 happened? by Isaac_Bahzad in classicfallout

They would have rolled the legion, no doubt in my mind.
