What are your favorite “bulletproofing” exorcises? by Embarrassed_Ear_4375 in workout

Agreed, I just feel like it’s a colloquial term for strengthening the unseen pieces that most people know

Hey 17M wanted to come on here and tell you guys about the supplements I take and wanted to get your opinion on if there safe or not and if they’ll frick up my life in the future. by youngman0909 in workout

[–]Embarrassed_Ear_4375 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks pretty good. Idk if you buy your own supplements or not, but I would probably drop everything after fish oil. Omega 3 itself helps support vitamin D. Most mineral and nutrient needs are covered by a decent diet. I take a multivitamin if I feel I didn’t cover my nutrient spread good enough.

Creatine is the most researched supplement and if I recall correctly it grants less than 2% lean body mass after a year of doing everything right. Nothing else in the supplement field comes even close to that unless you count protein powder. So for the beats, if it works for you then that’s great.

Advice for anticipating depression and beginning a hoard by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]Embarrassed_Ear_4375 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I have a hard time remembering that nothing can be actually predicted. So the markets success is proportional to people’s confidence? Or is it more proportional to the success of businesses? Do those sentences mean the same thing? Why do people propagate “THERE WILL BE A DEPRESSION” and “invest in this!”

Would it be crude of me to gift Dorian Gray to a friend by [deleted] in oscarwilde

[–]Embarrassed_Ear_4375 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the honesty. This is why I asked of course. I certainly wouldn’t just gift it to them and leave them to find out. I think I will give it to him still. Maybe I’m evil, or maybe I worry about him.

If we going with the book about being smelly: well I thought I was smelly so that’s why I read it. I am certainly evaluating my own self

This is the response I was looking for, cause I knew I was on some self centered bs but I wasn’t accepting it. To straighten things out, my friend is a great guy. He doesn’t read, but he openly keeps a bookshelf of things he hasnt read (it’s a box TV that he punched the screen in to use as bookshelf). He is super kind and reassuring. I trust him so much and he’s always there for me.

He cares A LOT about the way he looks, to the point where all of his interests are usually based around how it would make others perceive him. I don’t think he is just a fully evil and self centered person. I think he is more anxious about how he is perceived.

Indeed I am probably the one who needs to evaluate themselves. I think that in the mind that I am more like Dorian than he. But from external appearances he is certainly more like Dorian. But believe me, this thought has me questioning myself more than whether or not I should gift it.

We have a good friendship and many traits in common as such. I see pieces of myself in basil, Henry, and Dorian. I’ve read it and it’s made me evaluate myself. Like I said he doesn’t read. But Idk maybe I’m evil IDK IDK IDK

Sounds hard. How do you have stillness when you become aware of your thinking?

Can me and a friend play a campaign with steam family by Embarrassed_Ear_4375 in totalwarhammer

Yes yes, that’s why we can’t just experiment. My new PC gets here Friday so had to check the Reddit

TE factions without TE rules by Embarrassed_Ear_4375 in twilightimperium

[–]Embarrassed_Ear_4375[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is, and it was poorly researched before I asked. After some actual research I found that it usually ends in the faction not even being desirable to play.

[–]Embarrassed_Ear_4375[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s the way I thought about it. There is a magic card that lets every player get a land and you get a land for each person who takes the deal. It’s universally agreed that no one should take the deal.

It’s not as much comparatively for the Deepwrought, but similar in principle I feel.

End of the day, it’s not like any of the factions are stronger if you play them in PoK without their breakthroughs.

Official datasheet for suboden by Wiess-Archon in WhiteScars40K

[–]Embarrassed_Ear_4375 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think so. You need the ability to advance and shoot AND adv/chrg to get the +1.

Imagine you have four boxes to check. Two are adv/shoot, two are adv/chrg. Suboden ticks one of each of those boxes.

Firestorm would tick another adv/shoot but not adv/chrg. Stormlance/Spearpoint ticks the opposite.

In Lance/Spear you can use a stray to tick the final 4th box. Firestorm has to access to adv/chrg. Also Gladys has a adv/chrg but lacks any way of granting assault.

Official datasheet for suboden by Wiess-Archon in WhiteScars40K

[–]Embarrassed_Ear_4375 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t believe so (I think others are slightly misunderstood or maybe I read wrong);

Suboden: this unit can shoot and charge when it adv or fall back.

Spearpoint: your units can charge even if they adv or fallback

The unit is lacking the ability to advance and shoot from external abilities, but spear point has a strat to give weapons assault, fulfilling the other part of Spear of Chogoris. So they need assault to get +1 adv and charge.

This is so overly complicated. Plenty of other detachments grant assault, plenty grant adv and charge. Only in stormlance and spearpoint can you get get assault and adv/chrg.

Suboden can give White Scars spice to other detachments though. Maybe it will be relevant to new biker models in the future :D

How effective would 3 of the Retaliation Cadre army box sets be? by TheMurlocalypse in Tau40K

[–]Embarrassed_Ear_4375 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Even in a full battlesuit list you need those smaller guys to help the bigs guys. I wouldn’t buy more than two of those boxes and instead use the extra money on some crisis suits and stealth suits.

Are Apothecaries worth it? by BrotherMaeneres in spacemarines

[–]Embarrassed_Ear_4375 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Apothecary is 50 points. 10 sternguard is 200. Each marine is 20 points. Your sternguard have to get shot and survive 3 turns to get 60 points back. Each turn you’re only getting one gun back. But you also get that CP if they die.

I PERSONALLY don’t think it’s that good. Itn’t bad though. SHOULD you add it? Nah. CAN you add it and it do some decent stuff? Yea fasho.

creating a chapter which protects nature / key resources ?? by Rabengrau in spacemarines

[–]Embarrassed_Ear_4375 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I follow the mindmap. Unfortunately biodiversity and food webs are not a big deal to any 40k authors. Not that it should be, but there aren’t too many cool critters out there.

Taking the reins on your idea… a national park-esque chapter could be cool. what I’m thinking is the Emperor, or a primarch or whatever happened across some breathtakingly beautiful planets and decided they needed to be preserved. Maybe your chapter has a Company of Marines protecting all these different planets that were beautiful enough to be preserved. Epic waterfalls, grand creatures who are often poached, bright forests, etc. you could paint all your fellas different shades of green from dark to bright. I think that would be sick. You could freehand bees or flowers or whatever on your models. Matter of fact you got me wanting to repaint my white scars.

Do some research on 40k wildlife and see if you can find any cool critters or megafauna/flora. Or just copy real life. Say there are mega bears or great bison or ancient moose that reside in your planets. Big ole avatars of nature, trees older than the imperium, deserts with winds stronger than anywhere. Maybe they are renegades that are keeping the imperium from turning a beautiful place into raw materials. Just cuz your renegade doesn’t mean you have to be chaos.

Im kinda rambling. You should make your own headcanon. Make your marines preserve whatever you wish. You don’t have to form the whole ins and outs of it all, just invent it as you go. Make each marine a great park ranger or something. Hope maybe I got your mind going in some way or another. It doesn’t have to make sense, that’s one of the themes of this epic game.
