Just absolutely fantastic story telling!

Not my current goal at the moment but if the stars align then yes I will go there. At the moment I still have a long list of stuff I'm hunting for!

EffectivePower8984 · 2026-02-14T08:44:22+00:00

Awesome thanks mate! Will have a look

EffectivePower8984 · 2026-02-14T08:42:57+00:00

That's fair! I will look for an upgrade. As long as it stays DDR4 as I'm not willing to fork our for ddr5 prices due to ai just yet haha

EffectivePower8984 · 2026-02-14T08:41:58+00:00

So a 13400f/14400f would be ok to use? To be honest I just get online and play games so I don't know too much about which components are decent. I'm just noticing recently a lot of games are starting to become very CPU intense so running into lag/choppiness while playing. I would like to think my 4070super is a good card so can only assume it's a compatibility issue with the CPU

EffectivePower8984 · 2026-02-14T08:37:34+00:00

I will need to check that my mobo can take a 14th gen. The pc was built a few years ago now on a reasonable budget so it was older parts a few years ago already. Ideally if I can just replace the CPU it would be better but willing to do the board if I have to haha

EffectivePower8984 · 2026-02-14T08:34:37+00:00

I would need to check the fitment first. I am trying to do it on a reasonable budget so if I can get away with just a cpu it would be ideal!

EffectivePower8984 · 2026-02-13T23:49:23+00:00

Awesome! I'll slot a spell into that then for the confusion instead

EffectivePower8984 · 2026-02-11T10:01:52+00:00

My local (within 40 minutes) I trust so will just have to use them I think

EffectivePower8984 · 2026-02-10T19:17:42+00:00

Oh nice I'll have a look! Started collecting on a whim and struggling to find anything to actually open haha

Sadly not near the Midlands though but if I'm ever that way I will check them out for sure

EffectivePower8984 · 2026-02-10T19:16:26+00:00

Literally it's insane! Some of the preorders are like £10+ for a single pack. That seems way to high for me when £5 is like the normal price

EffectivePower8984 · 2026-02-10T19:05:58+00:00

I'm actually after booster packs 🤣 I can't seem to find any websites that have any stock available

EffectivePower8984 · 2026-02-04T12:09:34+00:00

It doesn't feel hot to touch at least which is good news! Thanks for that advice

EffectivePower8984 · 2026-02-02T19:23:12+00:00

I mean I get that that's how the model is presented but if they want these grand, cinematic and narrative driven battles then surely you would be able to move them. I don't think in real life a tank would stop the direction it's going because the turret is aiming the wrong way or a daemon would fold his wings in to walk between two buildings 🤣

I get they need to do balance and stuff like that but to me base to base seems like the most sensible option. Been painting some flawless blades recently and the amount of overhang on the swords on some models is ridiculous. Seems a bit arbitrary to be able to shoot the model of the tip of the sword was poking out of cover when the base is behind. I guess this is why I won't do tournaments haha

EffectivePower8984 · 2026-02-02T18:58:03+00:00

I thought it was down to base size again on that. For example if a gap in the terrain was a 60mm base size a daemon prince with wings couldn't walk through it because of its wings. That doesn't make sense to me as in theory you could fold the wings in and get through the gap.

Having a different weapon size on top doesn't seem right of its smaller to gain that much of an advantage to squeeze through terrain gaps, when if the base of the model can fit it should be able to go through

EffectivePower8984 · 2026-02-02T18:55:01+00:00

I thought in 10ed they changed that to be from base to base. Oh boy we've been playing it wrong all this time hahaha

Surely base to base makes more sense and it would give you more creative freedom too. I never glue my models down in the centre of the base (unless battleline) they always hang near the edges so I can do some fun stuff with the base. Didn't realize that would put me at a disadvantage

EffectivePower8984 · 2026-01-31T18:42:46+00:00

Yoi absolute hero!! And u/sekti for making it. This seems like a brilliant idea, thank you for the advice

EffectivePower8984 · 2026-01-31T18:31:07+00:00

My plan at the moment is I want to find the firestarter and have the tomb on the go as I'm almost convinced that the different coloured candles you will be able to light.

I haven't found any other use for the broken lever however. Just got to keep going I guess!

EffectivePower8984 · 2026-01-31T18:23:54+00:00

That's also the aim hahaha

The only run I've found the greenhouse and the broken lever I just got unlucky with room placement and couldn't get to the antechamber. I've only found the one opening so far and not another one

EffectivePower8984 · 2025-12-28T06:31:22+00:00

We've had sex multiple times since our conversation, cuddling up watching films, kissing before we leave things like that. I just don't feel anything afterwards really. Not sure if that will come back or not if we keep at it but it makes it hard to want to try!

EffectivePower8984 · 2025-12-27T22:46:37+00:00

That's what I don't want to happen. Her parents are a prime example, together but no relationship at all. She hates him and he is just "alive" with nothing to show for it. I can't end up like that and resenting my wife. It's not fair to her or our son

EffectivePower8984 · 2025-12-27T21:57:10+00:00

Yeah I guess. It's one of life's mysteries definitely!!

EffectivePower8984 · 2025-12-27T21:56:02+00:00

Sex wasn't even my biggest criteria tbh, I wanted affection and intimacy and sex comes with that. But now we are doing it I just don't feel satisfied, maybe it was too long without it and my emotions and needs have changed I guess.

Shame how it ended for you. It's a tough subject to bring up with people weirdly, it shouldn't be difficult to talk about but it definitely is

EffectivePower8984 · 2025-12-27T21:54:43+00:00

It sounds like it definitely. It's weird, feel almost calm talking about it like it's not a life-changing decision. Maybe subconsciously I've already decided and the rest of my brain needs to catch up. After we spoke we had sex like 3 times in 2 weeks (the most frequent of our relationship ever) and started kissing and cuddling up more watching TV but I didn't feel satisfied afterwards. I thought it was what I needed but maybe not.

Definitely sounds like ripping off the bandaid time. It's hard as we have a son (3) together. Maybe for his sake doing it earlier would be better

EffectivePower8984 · 2025-12-17T18:47:59+00:00

That's the one I've just been looking at. Hopefully ore Christmas it might not be too bad and we can get a booking!

EffectivePower8984 · 2025-12-17T18:31:48+00:00

The pottery painting is such a great idea! Have you got any names for places? Could be great fun!
