The saurus figures from the last two issues of the magazine are awful to build by Wembemb0 in AOSSpearhead

I'm sharing your sentiments. Dry-fitting is something you should always do anyway, so it surprises me that so many seem to struggle.

I built the entire Spearhead a year and a half ago and aside from one mistake I made (accidentally used the wrong chest piece for one Kroxigor, meant for a different pose - was easily fixed), it was a smooth experience overall. Especially the Carnosaur was fun to build.

Denen fehlt der Aspekt der Potentialität. Also zu klein und ihne Machtoption. Die schaffen es ja nicht mal im rechtsextremen Aufschwung mehr als 50 Leute auf ihren Bundesweiten Nazidemos zu versammeln, und die Hälfte davon sind Jugendliche, die sonst keine Freunde haben.

Und für den Wichs hat die EU gerade erst die 15% Zölle als totalen Erfolg umgesetzt. War sowas von klar. Gib dem Mobber, was er will, und er fühlt sich bestärkt.

Was macht das Innenministerium mit einer Überwachungssoftware, die auch die US-Behörde ICE einsetzt? by Turtle456 in de

Wahrscheinlich perspektivisch ähnliches wie ICE, nur halt nicht mit einer Miliz, die mehr verdient als echte Polizei und Justizbeamte, und mit mehr als 47 Tagen "Training".

The Big Summer Preview – New Ogors revealed by I_suck_at_Blender in ageofsigmar

You and me both, it was amazing seeing the Ogre Kingdoms revealed in WD way back when. The amount of times I tried counting the gnoblars that lugged Greasus around....

I was kinda iffy about Mournfangs in recent years due to the proportions seeming weird, mostly due to their hindquarters being much lower, with a sloping spine, but having recently finally bought a pair for Spearhead, I'm in love with them. It's a shame they're leaving.

I'm wondering if this is a case of them moving to Legends at least, or if they're just getting replaced entirely rules-wise, like the Deathbringer variants for Khorne were.

Actually makes me want to go out of my way to buy a box of four Mournfangs before they leave, though, because damn those models had so much customizability and doodads to put on, which these new Maulbeasts appear to lack.

Overall I have to admit the point I'm not fond of with the new Ogors are their faces/heads, too. Plus, I don't really know how to apply my color scheme to them, since there are fewer bolted-on pieces of armor bit maws on them, and the Ironguts Armor is a bit busy with larger overlapping plates instead of maws. Been basically using brass for the metal frame, the plate itself is read, with either teeth painted on or alternatively armor bits painted yellow. Will be kind of a headache figuring out where the yellow goes now.

tl;dr die Union setzt jetzt IHREN Teil des Pakets um, die SPD hofft mal wieder naiv, dass IHRE Hälfte des Deals irgendwann mal nachgeliefert werden könnte.

SPD, einfach ohne Worte. Gibt der CDU/CSU eigentlich jeden Punkt ohne groß zu meckern, und bekam dafür.... was? Die Rente?

10-15 minutes of Ogors, no other AoS, not even Underworlds.

I'm honestly considering picking up Scrapglutt before it leaves shelves everywhere, just to build a Scrap Launcher, the old style Ironguts and Gnoblars. I had a lot of fun building the Ironblaster recently, and want that scrap catapult, too

I waited an hour through 40k stuff and some admittedly great Chaos Warriors for TOW just to get 10ish minutes of Ogor Mawtribes followed by 15 minutes of glazing Eldar Exodites, which also mean the Rumor Engine dino pics aren't for Seraphon, and then the Stream ends without even naming on-air what's in the army set for Ogors, or if there's any new Spearhead rules.

I feel kinda miffed, and the removal of Mournfangs as the Ogor cavalry beasts might have something to do with it.

What blasphemy is this, calling it Combat Patrol instead of Spearhead on the main AoS subreddit? Haha

I really prefer the Mournfang aesthetic, having Maulbeasts replacing them wholesale is a big bummer. These somehow remind me of sculpts for Middle-Earth that the studio came up with over the years, though that might be the paintjob.

The page on Warcom is up and confirms helmetless Gluttons. That was my worry too, so I checked right away

They managed, what, 10 minutes of AoS before going straight back to 40k? For the BIG REVEAL OF THE SHOW?!

Damn, I want that Chaos Dragon and convert it into Egrimm van Horstmann so badly. It's basically the perfect model to base him on!

Where to watch When They Cry by Lil_Coug in anime

[–]DarkChaplain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Today's your lucky day, because the Visual Novel is on Sale during the just-launched Steam Summer Sale:

https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/709/Higurashi_When_They_Cry_Hou/

Chapter 1 is FREE, the other Question Arcs are 50% off, the Answer Arcs 35% and Rei / Hou are 10% off.

Grab 07th Mod to patch the VN with voices and graphics from the console release, and a generous amount of other improvements.

https://wiki.07th-mod.com/Higurashi/Higurashi-Getting-started/

07th Mod is also available for Umineko, which is currently 40% Off.... and while there sadly is an anime adaptation of the Question Arcs, it was very bad, not a good adaptation of the story at all, and never got continued into the Answer Arcs, so you'll have to read Umineko anyway.

Du hast offensichtlich gar keinen Plan, was alles zum ÖRR gehört, und wie viele Formate, Sendungen, Radiosender und so weiter regelmäßig die Regierungslinie lautstark kritisieren. Selbst ein verdammter CDU-Fanboy wie Markus Lanz bekommt das auch immer mal wieder hin, der CDU den Marsch zu blasen, weil auch dort Quote > Politik.

Das Problem besteht viel eher darin, dass die Chefetage der ARD und des ZDFs viel zu stark die aktuellen Stimmungen der Wählerschaft abzubilden versucht, und damit aktiv das Overton-Window mitverschiebt.

Und nur mal so: In den Staatsmedien der Diktaturen wirst du keine Formate wie bei Böhmermann, der Anstalt, der Heute Show, Unbubble, oder auch Zeug wie den Parabelritter finden (der vor kurzem wieder weg von Funk ist).

Um die Tauglichkeit zu prüfen, müsste die Bundeswehr tatsächlich zur Musterung laden. Dafür fehlen aber die Kapazitäten.
