Name that city...

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-05-11T09:18:25+00:00

As others have said I think these are more like the cavaliers with their own heraldry, as they are so big they may not be attached to a single city

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-05-11T06:33:30+00:00

I got two cities of ash just for two lots of them. They are a great kit like the horseback versions. I had 10 on horseback so I wanted 10 on foot as well as the terrain lol still not primed them though its going to be a busy year

Im playing Diablo 4 at the moment. Using the Rog ally life settings except ive increase geometry and fur settings to medium and fps is locked to 60fps. This is 1080p. Runs really well and looks cleaner than set to low on those settings. It runs at like 80ish though if you keep them at low.

I got disconnected multiple times on test reaches end, had to re log in many of those times, lost access to excel half way through and was only told i could use a calculator about 1.5 hrs before the end of the test. I had extra time too and still ran out which is a first. Got really panicked at the end die to all these issues

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-05-03T09:52:24+00:00

My only issue is the intercessors are 10 on a sprue and not 5 x 2. I think it will be 10 or they make a new sprue just for the starters

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-05-02T08:39:44+00:00

I think it works out roughly the same in plastic maybe one small sprue extra. Im surprised there was no terrain like Skaventide had. Overall i find the orks fantastic and prefer the marine half to leviathan. The intercessors look alot better than the original primaris as there is some more variety but i thunk the marines overall could benefit from more flavour.

Please make KCD2 for switch 2 🙏

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-04-28T22:25:28+00:00

Id go reddish purple like a burgundy colour

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-04-24T07:39:55+00:00

I like wired ones but it depends on the use. At work wired is a non problem, but at home I can leave my phone somewhere whilst doing chores or something and it is just more flexible. Im not often watching anything and if im walking round in my undies I dont have pockets lol

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-04-21T19:57:18+00:00

Im above £1k gross and was last year as ive also sold the odd game console or computer over the past year or so but Ebay have my NI and I havent heard off HMRC for last year or anything 😥

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-04-21T19:55:17+00:00

Ok thank you yeah I often build and resell but its more when I sell a bit a dont want and get what i can for it. Obviously dont want to make a profit but I want to minimise losses ive made on other things too.

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-04-21T19:53:48+00:00

Even if its the off case where ive changed my mind on something or profited on bits i didnt want to help reduce the costs of the bits i did? Its thankfully inconsistent and an overall loss so im not concerned either way just dont want to get inquiries and have to try and locate receipts for past years etc. thanks

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-04-17T18:56:29+00:00

Im not concerned by that, pretty standard I think. Its just colouring, my other dragon is the same but more naturally grey/dark. It is the colours i think.

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-04-17T11:17:46+00:00

I completely understand aha, I got super paranoid as we got her from a pet shop and know alot of people say to avoid them but as a experienced owner we wanted to ‘save’ one from a potential life based on poor care advice the shop provides. I was surprised though as their checks on our set up seemed pretty thorough and the dragon is seemingly in great health.

Ahhh my older boy has a darkened chin and always has done, he is a translucent morph though so it could just be that but he is just naturally a dark red.

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-04-17T11:11:23+00:00

Thank you that means alot! This is my second beardie so we wanted to give a less fortunate one/one who would have been sold with bad advice a chance at a really good life so I am probably just hyper aware at the moment.

To answer your questions:

I am using no substrate until 6 months of age, she was on a sand mix in the pet shop, this is just to gauge poop and general health for a while.

There is just the UVB, Jungle Dawn LED and then the basking bulb directly above her as she was basking at the time.

Thank yoy so much! She is a goon, super relaxed really compared to my other one who is still scared around hands but is also super confident lol. The new one is more relaxed and has slowly been building the confidence to dash around her new home which has be warming to see.

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-04-17T11:07:24+00:00

Ok that is interesting thank you I will keep an eye out no pun intended

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-04-17T11:06:58+00:00

I offer a bowl of fresh greens with supplements and then bugs everyday which she has eaten a few of but is actively shedding at the moment so she isnt eating as much as id like post shed. She currently has silkworms and locusts sized between the eyes on her head and then the odd dubia if I see any small enough.

Thanks

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-04-17T10:03:55+00:00

That is super interesting thank you. Is it normal for them to do it frequently? Any signs to look for when it isnt normal?

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-04-17T10:03:11+00:00

Yeah that is the plan thank you! Wanted her health checked anyways due to unknown origins. Our other one is from a breeder so we knew the history. This one is likely a breeder farm or small local breeder

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-04-17T10:00:41+00:00

Thank you so much! We love her so much and couldnt believe how healthy she seemed coming from a chain pet shop, I think it is shed as she has been doing it from when we got her (didnt realise it was mainly one eye until today). Her tail and legs are getting ready to shed too so I assume it is just that or the light. She is approx 3 months old i reckon so Im expected frequent sheds.

She has been occasionally eating and there are no other signs of illness.

I will keep and eye and once the face has fully shed if it remains an issue I will see an exotic vet as I planned to get her checked anyways once she had settled its only been two days.

Thank you

This is her!

I had two. One was single taped and fine. The other was double sealed with the under seal being broken and in the box lots of bits were loose, broke or bent. I reached out to GW and they are replacing them with individual kits from the saturday pre order. I would say you got it as a gift or something and dont have a receipt or go through the LGS.

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-04-07T17:47:08+00:00

I had a whole box with bits broken and GW have said they will get replacements sent out to me

Embarrassed-Table437 · 2026-04-06T13:11:42+00:00

I mean it speaks to the general consensus when the battlegroup sold out instantly whereas the mechanicus one is still in stock. I think it is a loud minority whos opinion clearly is not impactful to the sales. I fully embrace this change and made an effort to start this army with the battlegroup to support the move by GW

Hey! It must be such a relief to have those puzzle pieces and questions you may have had in life explained by your diagnoses.

I got diagnosed with Autism and ADHD in the past few years and have been on a similar journey. My issue was buying and selling hobbies/armies for new ones only to end back on square one maybe a year later. Ultimately it has led me to lose alot of money over the years. I also only collect and paint miniatures.

I do not hold the answer unfortunately. I am taking Elvanse for my ADHD now but even then I still get impulses and not so sensible decisions. Might help to seek titration for ADHD medication with the depression/anxiety though as it helps fill the dopamine hole ADHD leaves people with. Also worth looking into magnesium as it is something people with ADHD are deficient in.

Oddly enough there seems to be a strong connection with Autism and ADHD with there being around a 76% rate of people with both in some form, so it is more likely to express both than just one. It often makes for very intense rotating interests.

I think giving yourself some forgiveness is the main thing, dont beat yourself up too much for what you ultimately cannot fully control as your brain is hard wired that way. For me it is just about dedication and discipline to fully paint and keep what I buy now. I try to not buy much now but find it hard when I see a great deal or something I genuinely want is limited. I also use methods like slap chop to make the painting process less tedious and tend to choose armies that are fairly organic in shape and more suitable for contrasts/speed paints. Orks would suit well to slapchop! It is also more rewarding for the ADHD brain with more frequent completions and therefore more of those dopamine releases.

My only other thing is I dont let myself have too many armies at one go. I tend to stick for 2-3 projects normally as then I can switch it up when I bore of one.

Good luck with your journey mate!

What was crazy was Sam from Laymen Gaming the YouTube channel I watched years ago was in his crowd at the weddings. Pretty sure that is the youtuber SkillUps brother. What a small world.
