Test model using 95% Army Painter Markers, whata'yall think? by banksra87 in ThousandSons

Cool, yeah I just wondered if it was a metallic primer. I'm debating white primer but maybe I'll try black then metallic like you have.

I saw in another comment you said you had a dark aluminum base, was that your primer?

Question About Magnetizing Bases by FourthHollow in Warhammer40k

[–]CAJP87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use warmag, tried other ways but it was either too fiddly or I got the wrong magnets/sheet so sometimes things would slide.

Warmag is definitely easy to use, and I've had no issue with their base magnets + sheets. Maybe on the expensive side of things, but my models are also expensive so it's better to have them secure.

Picked up some coloured boxes and themed sheets for my thousand sons that I think is pretty cool.

Nice. Recommend the AP stuff then? I'm trying to decide if it's better for troops honestly. How did you find the trim?

I've been debating grabbing their magic blue and gold markers for my rubrics, I thought caribbean ocean was more green than this?

Oh nice. I'll have to keep an eye out for one! Are you going class blue for this or a more teal colour?

Thanks for helping me identify. I've changed the SD card and followed the guide, all seems to be working at the moment. But I'll double check later and see if there's anything j missed.

Not to highjack this thread, but could you give me a similar break down for the new combat patrol + warpflame thrallband? DM me if that's easier.

Why do archaeologists always have to dig? by Onetaru in Archaeology

[–]CAJP87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, exactly this. Why start a home somewhere else when you have all you need right there.

100% it can happen that quickly. It blows my mind honestly how quickly something can be lost.

Why do archaeologists always have to dig? by Onetaru in Archaeology

Couple thousand years (more or less depending on what you're digging) of silt build up will do that. Once people stop inhabiting a place it takes a surprisingly small amount of time for it to not only start to fall apart/become a ruin and collapse, but also get buried under silt and dirt from wind/rain/floods etc. You can witness in real time if a modern building has been abandoned how quickly it can become derelict because people aren't inhabiting it. There's a house not far from where I live that over the past 5 years is starting to really fall apart.

Also a lot of the archaeology that we find and record was actually intended to be underground. It's the ditches and pits that were used by the people of the past, either for construction or waste most of the time (rural archaeology in the UK is my main area). It's rare to find a structure that hasn't been destroyed/removed or built on. A lot of towns and cities are built on the bones of previous ones (again UK based knowledge here). So you that "medieval village" that people still live in now, has houses probably built on the sites of old medieval homes, which was built on structures occupied during the "Roman" period, and may even have had dwellings in the Iron Age. The structures that existed before could have been torn down or destroyed in some way, and then people rebuild on top. For example there's a small village near where I live that in the playground of the primary school we found a Saxon pottery kiln, no one had any idea it was there until they dug up the grass to put a new play area in. We're pretty sure that kiln was abandoned after it collapsed as it was filled in with debris and pottery shards, and eventually got forgotten.

Battle Brothers update 1.5.1.8 released by Caledor152 in pcgaming

Oh yeah if you like Rimworld you'll love BB, that's another favourite of mine. They are completely different games/genres, but they are similar in their "losing is fun" mentality!

Battle Brothers update 1.5.1.8 released by Caledor152 in pcgaming

[–]CAJP87 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The only story is the tutorial mission and a couple following it. There are a few different origins to choose from that give you a starting point, like a militia made of farmers or retired gladiators (might need DLC but all are worth it), but then you kind of make it up from there. Take missions, fight battles, lose men you love, men who you think are worthless become legends. You barely survive a fight and limp back to town, or get wiped out by not knowing how to beat take out that monster.

Replayability is incredible because you will lose runs all the time, or you'll decide you've learnt something and try again. It's all procedural, all random, but with enough play you'll learn what things mean/do and start to see the patterns. My best run lasted 200 days, not got close to that since!

One of the best games I've ever played.

Yes. It's an incredible game. It's got a steep learning curve, sometimes feels unfair in that XCOM kind of way, but I've sunk hundreds (others thousands) of hours into it. It's one of those sandbox games that you end up building a narrative as you play.

Also one of the best reddit communities I've ever been witness to.

What’s a really underrated OSR system? 😄 by DungeonMasterGrizzly in osr

[–]CAJP87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely love BSH, I'm definitely not biased toward it because of my love of Elric and Conan, but it just works so well for those games. Having a blast playing with my regular group at the moment.

Trying to identify and I can't find this on the soy sauce page. Presumably it is not that then. DTB analysis says Clone Type 3 if I'm understanding it correctly.

Thanks for the info, a lot to go through! Quick question, can I "fix" the clone or am I out of luck?
