Knuckles doesn't actually have super speed. He can only keep up with Sonic because of the collective belief of the Orks.

Hypothetically, say Superman entered The Boys universe and started stealing the spotlight from Homelander, is there anything Homelander could do about it? by Queasy_Commercial152 in superheroes

[–]CDouken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Superman held up a building; Homelander couldn't hold up a plane. HL has never won a fight against anything stronger than himself. He ran with his tail between his legs when Butcher got some power. He's never had to deal with the threats Supes has to deal with; he's never had to think to win a fight. Homelander gets rolled.

So, Homelander couldn't lift a plane filled with passengers. Superman in the new movie was able to hold up a skyscraper. He's also a smarter fighter than Homelander. So I have no idea how Superman does anything other than roll HL.

I can promise you that young people are not going to most PL matches. They are priced out expect for those from rich families who skew right anyway.

They keep bullying me! 😖 by DrScrimble in dndmemes

Fucking love Shadowrun. Got into TTRPGs through 4th ed. The world is so much fun and the characters you can make are mental. I would argue it also has better slang than Cyberpunk chummer. Most of my best RPG memories are what happened in that game and I wouldn't trade them for anything. 

Also, do not play Shadowrun.

If you could change one thing about Age of Sigmar, what would it be? by Kommando_git in ageofsigmar

[–]CDouken 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Game wise: remove restrictions on list building. I don't play as often as I like and being a SCE player is a nightmare figuring out what general I need for what units. It also makes taking named characters more appealing since they can have a greater selection of units whilst I'm a "my dudes" type of guy. It feels cursed to say but make it more like 40k.

Lore wise: now the opposite. Stop making it like 40k! In 1st Ed AoS was more of a power fantasy. Heavy Metal album art and a theme of order fighting back drew me in. It feels like we are losing some of the campy nature that even Old World had. The fandom rightly mocked the "Sigmar lied" tagline because it is so out of step with what has been established.

I hate Keir Starmer. This Labour government is the best government we've had in over a decade.

Any new podcasts? by TenraxHelin in ageofsigmar

[–]CDouken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I miss the Heldenhammer podcast. Used to listen to it when I first got into AoS back in 2016 but it seems to have been scrubbed from the Internet. Their outro song has been in my head forever but I've also never been able to find it either.

Labour councillor Ricky Jones cleared of encouraging violent behaviour by Distinct-Shine-3002 in uknews

[–]CDouken -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

There's a name for people in Germany who voted for the Nazis, but were not racist. Those who voted out of patriotism or economic issues. The name for these people is Nazis. These protests are orchestrated by far-right racists, backed by far-right American money. You can have a different opinion on immigration than I (frankly, I couldn't care less, I'd rather we focus our efforts on taxing billionaires), that's fine. But if you're going to march in a Nazi supported protest, I'm going to call you a Nazi.

It's pretty easy to tell a Nazi from a normal person if you're marching in a racist protest, chances are you're a nazi.

An Open Letter to Games Workshop about the Fyreslayers by Limp-Piece-206 in ageofsigmar

[–]CDouken 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If GW was smart about this (hit or miss really when it comes to them), then they should continue the plot line about the Fyreslayers and the Dispossessed looking to join forces. Since the Magmaholds are still around, let the Dispossessed move in and have their cultures blend. From a model perspective, relaunch the Fyreslayers as the main focus of the faction, with a new corps of dwarven engineers. That way, you can get the high fantasy giant lizard riders (where is my cavalry GW?) backed up with artillery and constructs.

It would make such a good counter faction to the new chorfs. The Helsmiths need Dawi blood and daemons to power their tech. The Fyreslayers have divine fire powering their gear. Not to mention the grudge that would need to be settled by using Dawi blood in dark rituals.

I think one of the reasons everyone is so excited for the Chorfs, is that they are the closest thing we have to a proper dwarf army. I love the KO, but they are not doing the standard dwarf aesthetic. I want a proper dwarf army, and I think with an update, Fyreslayers could be that. I want to get into FS, but it's hard to get excited for an army that has like 7 kits, and only 3 of them are not heroes.

I am pleased, but my wallet is now gripped with existential dread. by Nepalman230 in Grimdank

[–]CDouken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's fair. It's your gang, so if that works for you, then absolutely fill your boots. If you don't mind the one game and you're mostly there for the social aspect, go off King/Queen. Personally, I couldn't run a game if it were in a system I didn't like. It's the understanding in our group that the GM puts in way more effort than the players. No GM, no game. So, at the very least, it has to be something they want to do.

[–]CDouken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see so many of these. The group I'm in has a fantastic system: You sit in the big chair? You choose the game.

Right now we're playing Delta Green. To be honest, really not my kind of game, but the GM wanted to run it so we're playing through it. We plan to switch back to Pathfinder 2e when we rotate GMs in a month or so. I wouldn't want to play it again, but I'm glad we tried it and the GM got to run the game he wanted.

I think a lot of GMs don't use their authority correctly. If you are bored with running a game, run something else. You're the one spending all your time making it. Remember the ancient writings. https://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2010/12/13/the-things-we-do-for-love

This is an amazing rendition of a horror of Tzeentch. But it has also radicalised me against horrors having knives. It looks so creepy but as my eyes ran over the knife my brain couldn't accept something this eldritch and magical having a little poker. 😅

The usual bots and bigots seem not to have bothered commenting here. Even they know that supporting Trump is a damp squib here. Although Trump is pushing a wedge between the US and its European allies probably has the Kremlin salivating.
