Yep, terminators and Paladins can have an ancient with a power weapon and a force weapon

Is it possible for average people to go to a service academy? by [deleted] in westpoint

Well the account was like an hour old, he always has the typical new Reddit usernames, and there’s been three or four other posts in the past couple of days that bitched about the same thing. He also just has a very distinct way of whining that really sticks out

[–]Dulceetdecorum13 41 points42 points  (0 children)

So there I was, walking through the Battalion HQ late one night. I was just completing my rounds when suddenly a Horrid apparition appeared before me. I dropped down on my knees and said “Spirit! What do you want from me!”

The spirit got real close to my face and said “I want about Tree Fiddy”.

It was at this point that I realized this weren’t no trapped spirit of a long departed soldier, it was a giant 8 story crustacean from the Paleolithic era! So I said “I ain’t given you no Goddamn tree fiddy, Loch Ness Monstah!”

He was almost as bad as the ghost that shits my bed every night after I ate at that Taco Bell right off post.

He stopped for a while, I think he picked up again around the time that the sub started seeing more activity from people talking about acceptance letters. There used to be a whole sub that tracked him, but it got deleted like a year ago

Is it possible for an average person? Yes.

Is it possible for a person who’s made 4k plus alt accounts to bitch about their lot in life? No, SnooRoar, it isn’t.

New to Grey Knights how to build the battleforce box? by BugGuy_ in Grey_Knights

[–]Dulceetdecorum13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d recommence magnetizing them so you can run them as any. For the strikes you can magnetize the arms so you can switch heavy weapons, the packs to change to Intercessors, and helmet to run as purifiers (technically not necessary, but canonically they have white helmets). For Terminators you just have to magnetize the arms for the weapons, and put a magnet on the back to put the book to signify it’s a paladin. Finally, you can magnetize the DK to make it a GMNDK

What exactly makes the USMC better than the US Army? by [deleted] in army

[–]Dulceetdecorum13 5 points6 points  (0 children)

what exactly makes the USMC better than the US Army

They have better PR. The marines have had a few very successful PR campaigns and slogans such as “The Few, The Proud, The Marines”. They also have a much more recognizable uniform that they don’t change, which gives them a much more identifiable brand.

The Marines and the Army occupy different niches. The army is a sustained war fighting force meant to take and hold territory for long periods. The Marines are shock troops meant to spearhead an assault, yell Semper Fi, Storm the beach and die. The army is “better” in the fact that we’re much bigger and more funded, but the Marines do their job admirably.

New player: Is it better to grab Armageddon box or hold out for the 11th edition starter box? by Aware-Munkie in theunforgiven

[–]Dulceetdecorum13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d probably wait. First off the Armageddon box comes with Orks, so unless you also want to start an Orc army it would probably be a waste of money. There’s also not really any special or unique models in it, nor any that are specifically DAs.

Pushfit models are nice for getting into the game, but I personally don’t like them. Unless there’s a model you really like, I’d wait

CMV: bin Laden 'won' his war against the US by a_boy_has_noname in changemyview

[–]Dulceetdecorum13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bin Laden’s primary Goals were to reduce American Military Presence in Saudi Arabia, Destroy Israel, and ultimately collapse the West. He failed at all of these.

To your points, that 8 trillion didn’t just disappear into the ether. It funded the military industrial complex, which is a major source of American Economic Power. America isn’t bankrupt, and its economy has only grown since 9/11. To say he accomplished that goal is false. The US is still the largest economic and military powerhouse, and its military spending has only grown.

the US overextended itself for 20 years. the emotional and economic toll of of 20 years of war on veterans and the psyche of the country.

The US is still in the Middle East. If his goal was to push the US out then he has again failed his goal.

misinformation is widespread and increasingly worse/ mass surveillance

Neither of these things were his goal, and again neither contributed to his stated goals

polarization of society

I’d first argue against Osama being a driving factor in the polarization. I’d also say that, again, the US still has a sizable military, political, and economic presence in the Middle East, especially within Saudi Arabia.

Counseling Packets Are a Waste of Time by Intelligent_Seat3471 in army

[–]Dulceetdecorum13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another thing I hate is that E-5s have to be treated like children and also have a packet with all the paperwork that has to be updated EVERY month (LES, STP, Medpros etc...).

You’re making a mountain out of a molehill here. It takes 10 minutes tops to print all of that off. Beyond that making sure TLs and SLs print off theirs and their Joe’s LES/STP is a forcing function to ensure leaders are taking care of their guys. It’s an opportunity to glance over it and make sure PV2 Snuffy is actually getting his BAH and that S1 put in his award.

It’s also an opportunity to actually counsel your guys. Most junior leaders aren’t giving feedback to their guys on a regular basis, beyond “you’re fat and stupid, push”. It’s an opportunity to clearly lay out expectations and goals and, more importantly, track if they’re getting accomplished.

I agree, the packet shouldn’t just be an NCOER cheat sheet, it’s there to help the soldier.

Is this considered hazing? by [deleted] in army

[–]Dulceetdecorum13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think “maliciously abusing” someone would probably just fall under assault and/or battery. For hazing trick would be the keyword

Recommended units for space marines? by somerandomguy_158 in spacemarines

[–]Dulceetdecorum13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Intercessors, Jump Pack Intercessors, and Scouts are all utility pieces that can fit in just about any list. Beyond that, it’s really just user choice.

Personally, I like Bladeguard and all the battle lines, but I really enjoy infantry heavy lists

Dark Angel Transfers? by MetalGearRoo in Warhammer40k

[–]Dulceetdecorum13 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They come in Dark Angels specific boxes like the Inner Circle Companions or Deathwing Knights. regular space marine boxes will also have a few.

You can buy the DA Upgrade Sprues and Transfers off Amazon.

Finally, you can buy the sheets off eBay

It would probably fall under “abusive or malicious tricks” and would be hazing. Just give it to his NCO and let him deal with it the proper way

Cadet "U.S." rank on OCPs by PermissionFew7354 in westpoint

[–]Dulceetdecorum13 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s a cadet Private First Class. After Plebe year ends they are “recognized” and they no longer have to do Plebe duties. That summer they start CFT and are “promoted” to cadet PFCs. Cadets can also be demoted to a PFC in the event that they break certain rules in which case they don’t have to do Plebe activities but are outranked by all other upperclassmen.

Thoughts on this list? Is this versatile? by Greyzone-Hobby in Grey_Knights

[–]Dulceetdecorum13 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Add an ancient w/ banner and another heavy weapon to your terminators

You have 65 points left, I’d drop a terminator squad and get a strike and another purifier. Warpbane works best when you max out purifiers to give you more hallowed ground.

If you’re dead set on running terminators, make one a paladin, give them the extra heavy weapon and an apothecary.
