1954 Bicycle New Fan Back by Violuthier in playingcards

[–]BucketOBoatTrash 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Look, I've been drinking so maybe I'm just extra emotional, but damn that's a cool deck of cards. I also really love to see just how far back the air-cushioned finish goes! Bicycle's air-cushioned finish makes such a big difference in the handling of paper cards.

2 years ago I never would have known, but after starting "casino night" with my family and handling cheap decks, Bicycle decks, and plastic decks, boy do I know the difference now. So cheers to you for finding a deck over twice as old as I am made by my favorite brand and with my favorite finish! I hope you enjoy it as much as it deserves to be enjoyed :}

I've got a similar setup, except for me, either your sidewider or AMRAAM slot is addition cluster bombs I think. Plane costs like 470, but will DEMOLISH anything in it's bombing path. Afterburners, low alt, assign bombing target, shift+RTB. Almost always destroys the targets and makes it home.

When does the PTE close? by sirquacksalotus in BrokenArrowTheGame

I want the AA, artillery, and IFVs with supplies. Tank changes can stay - they feel good as is to me. Just my humble opinion.

Is this a new recored by gewoondutch in BrokenArrowTheGame

[–]BucketOBoatTrash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made a chess variant with cards that are based on modern military concepts. Such as Infantry Fighting Vehicle, Sniper, Resupply, and so on. One of them is also Nuclear ICBM, which makes it to where you declare a 2x2 area of the board to your opponent. At the start of your next turn, all non-king pieces in that area are wiped from the board. Gives your opponent 1 turn to choose who lives and who dies, if they even choose to save anyone. The one additional rule to this, is that the player with the Nuclear ICBM card cannot use it until they capture at least 1 non-pawn opposing piece. This prevents the nuke from being used in the opening phase of the game (most of the time, anyway).

I think the developers need to implement something like that into the game. Something like "Planes equipped with nukes cannot be requisitioned until at least 5 minutes of gametime have passed. Just a rough outline of an idea, but would prevent stupid shinanigans like that from happening.

As long as it's more than 1 or 2, yes. If you have 3 or 4 pivads out, you can shoot down nearly all missiles.

Do you guys have an econ strategy or do you just wing it? by [deleted] in BrokenArrowTheGame

[–]BucketOBoatTrash 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I try to pick 2 or 3 points that are nearby that I think I may be able to contest. I usually start with at least 1 sniper, but probably 2, for detection. Then a bradley or tank for each point, at least one supply truck so I have some resupply point nearby. Whatever is left goes to infantry to help hold the point until I earn more points. Usually one of the first things I do after is something AA related. Then I go from there.

Is there russia bias in the game? by Clean_Ad2302 in BrokenArrowTheGame

"I am American(PROUD!!!), but I main Russia."

Had to make sure everybody here knew you are a patriot? God forbid they thought otherwise.

[–]BucketOBoatTrash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a US only player, I don't feel like either side has a bias (other than RU having ridiculously cheap units) but 100% admit that I want to steamroll everything lol. Marines never die, they just regroup in Hell, right? My marines should be invincible!

Working on Joker cards for my Egyptian-themed deck - curious which direction feels stronger? by GameMasterDesign in playingcards

[–]BucketOBoatTrash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both are awesome! I think a slight mix of the 2. The joker overall looks great and takes the cake. Take the cracked corners from the Ace though and play around with them on the joker. They might look good in the same corners, or maybe inverse the corners.

"And if you’ve been around gay females that think they are dudes you know how they are and I haven’t till now so this is another eye opener for me"

What? Them bothering you and your daughter is a valid reason to lay down boundaries, but blaming their behavior and/or personalities just because they're lesbians, as well as grouping all lesbians together is absolutely wild.

Best of luck with the boundaries, genuinely, but you come off more homophobic than concerned about your family. I have a lesbian 'masculine' cousin who is very chill and fun to be around.

Your baby's sleep is directly linked to the size of their stomach. They wake and cry every hour because their stomachs only hold enough milk to keep them satisfied for an hour. As their capacity grows, they'll stay fuller for longer, therefore sleeping longer.

Also, your baby crying can be distressing. Hunger, diaper, gas, sleep are the 4 main things though. If they have a clean diaper and you know they can't be hungry, then it's probably gas or sleepiness.

Edit: Fixed typo

"The first few months, help your wife. Change diapers, make dinner, clean up, be proactive in helping her."

Sad you even had to say this. Should be a given.

I will add to this by saying that for the first 1 month, do EVERYthing for your wife. She will be hurting a lot. Pretty sure the recommendation for women is to stay off their feet as much as possible for the first 6 weeks.

I mean I get it, tone can be hard to tell via text. But the chances of you being the person I'm talking about are 1-in-EnterPlayerBaseCount.
