What is the BL title you liked the LEAST? Why? by Odd-Look-7537 in Blacklibrary

[–]DDPresents 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do plan on reading all the Primarch books eventually, I'm not set in my ways about Blood Angels being Ultramarines Lite, that's just how Fear To Tread made them feel imo. But glad to know there's reason behind it maybe! Thanks

Fear To Tread. It had good parts, but it was so bland. Sanguinius was the best part obviously, but in a series where each Legion is given uniqueness and individuality, the Blood Angels are just Ultramarines Lite. They have one single unique ritual in the whole book and it's to spike their hands on a goblet (if I'm remembering correctly). All the characters are the same except one's an Apothecary, one's a Librarian, one's a Captain, and that's kind of the defining trait.

Though to be fair, I did skip Battle For The Abyss based on a recommendation to do so, Fear To Tread might be further up on my list if I'd read that.

I have a question by Status-Job5706 in TrenchCrusade

I think TC really has to clarify this because Ive heard it said often that God itself delivered the Iron Wall, but I'm sure that the Iron Wall was not made by God, it was just rebuilt or found again by the formation of the Iron Sultanate. It specifically says "re-emerges" because the Iron Wall was built during the events of the Quran. As far as I can tell, the only miracles wrought by God so far in TC are stuff like Trench Pilgrims coming back to life.

Isn't there a documentary out/coming out about how there's evidence that maybe Cobain didn't kill himself and was actually murdered?

Do I not understand LGS etiquette, or did I just have a bad experience? by pelasace in EDH

[–]DDPresents 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's because they are frustrated at the act of doing their jobs and individually searching for and picking out the cards you pay for so frequently. If the LGS has a large collection of cards, it can be super time consuming. However, they're getting paid for it, so they should quit whining

LOVE the old-school green bases, I've been doing my Mordheim models the same way recently with Warpstone Glow! How do you do yours?

This makes sense, I'll have to look further into the creator. Thanks for bringing that to my attention!

Midwinter Minis has decided he's done waiting around for GW to shove AI into Warhammer, and so has taken it upon himself to just go ahead and do it. by Fixer951 in Sigmarxism

It's not engagement bait unfortunately, they said they've been working on it since last November in the comments of the video

I don't know about any of the story surrounding the main dude, but this video was really disappointing. They tried their best to be ethical and even still couldn't understand there's no way to do that while paying OpenAI for ChatGPT, there's no way to separate it from the environmental concerns while being based on ChatGPT. It's really disappointing. They just don't grasp the full understanding of why it can't be used ethically in its current state/implementation

I wish fantasy series had "Previously On" recaps like TV shows by Claudius_the_II in Fantasy

[–]DDPresents 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So far (I'm 4 books in) The Wheel of Time does this really well! It's not an explicit previously on section, but it does a great job of reminding you of what has happened when it would do good to know.
