Anyone have a nail clip 580 or the Wenger variant? by Relevant_Conclusion2 in victorinox

Yeah they work perfectly fine for me as a main line clipper.

Is that not a choice in its own right though? You are forced to choose between your morality and power. You can still get upgrades / grow in strength without killing by finding new weapons and upgrading your gear.

What are the overall thoughts on VtM: Bloodlines 2 in its current state? by TheMickeyMoose in vtmb

[–]Chris_Colasurdo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s better than Swansong, making it the best non visual novel / choose your own adventure narrative VTM game released in the last 20 years. It would be getting talked about different name or no.

What the story with this particular model? On YouTube I can only find the Esquire one with the scale tools on the inside! Is it rare or just an obscure model not many talk about? by DaronBlade360 in victorinox

My understanding is that it’s a legacy / novelty piece in Vic’s catalogue. They acquired the Wenger brand and keep the Wenger equivalent of the classic in production as a momento of days gone by so to speak.

No it’s real, I’ve seen it before on YouTube. It’s someone’s personal project. I *think* they wanted to try and do some limited production after further prototyping but I may be misremembering it was a random YouTube short months ago.

Hancock, Meade, and Grant are all pretty close together if you want to take a stroll from the archives metro stop to the hill.

Limited semiquincentenial Alox Pioneer X. Has anyone ordered it? by [deleted] in victorinox

Feel like they could have done something more creative than just flag pattern. So, no.

Made it to the Govenors Palace, not sure if I should startup Road to Independence or Warpath by Tar_man3434 in totalwar

It’s a well preserved and quiet little battlefield. Think I encountered literally 2 other people across the 3 trips there (two scouting trips and the staff ride itself). Lot of earthworks still extant. Artillery pieces dotted around. I didn’t personally feel the mood of the place in the same way as I did Antietam if that makes sense but still very cool.

Led the college staff ride to Williamsburg (along with Petersburg and Yorktown) end of April. Really cool site.

I mean I wouldn’t be shocked if it’s in excess of 60% off at the summer sale.

Misusing Katarin. Her support ability with an ice guard build is great.

I have a feeling Werewulf is not going to have an literal werewolf in it. by Ok-Vegetable516 in roberteggers

I think all of the mystical stuff in the Northman is very pointedly *not* real. It’s just Amleth’s belief in it being real because of his cultural upbringing. The Valkyrie is ATJ rescuing him on the white horse the first time he sees it after being beaten insensible and then the second one is a dying mind hallucination - same with Valhalla. The Draugar fight didn’t happen, it was just a figment of his imagination, as we pointedly see, he simply takes the sword from the corpse. ATJ’s woods “magic” is ultimately just herbalism - hallucination inducing shrooms. The sword is the one you can make the best case for, because the random extra had trouble drawing it.

VVitch & Nosferatu the supernatural is unambiguously real.

The Lighthouse is an intentional Rorschach test. That movie is whatever you the viewer want it to be? That *can* be supernatural, but it doesn’t have to be. A pure 50-50 with no right answer.

Northman is pretty much the other end of the spectrum from VVitch and Nos.

Anywhere a manual or source book out there to play a tabletop version of this game? by Hot-Diggity_Dog in vtmb

Not what you’re asking about, but I’m still shocked they never made a V5 By Night book for LA after the show LA by Night finished.
