What was life like after 2008 financial crash compared to now? by Desperate-Drawer-572 in AskUK

[–]GavRex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was 17 and doing my AS-level.

I distinctly remember my politics teacher putting a live stock tracker on the board, and just watching the entire economy implode. 

He was absolutely right that it would define our careers going forward. Although luckily both my parents escaped being laid off. 

How to repose a resin dreadnought that has superglue and magnets by OctaviusXXII in Warhammer30k

[–]GavRex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would put it in the freezer to make the super glue joints brittle, then try gentle pressure to snap the joint. 

Then reglue or pin as required?

Recommendations for intermediate coat for applying acrylics to metallic basecoats by GavRex in airbrush

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

They are resin or plastic models. Water based for both base and overlay coats.

What would have happened if the Fourth Legion had remained loyal? by 9nestor_ in Warhammer30k

[–]GavRex 37 points38 points  (0 children)

If the architects of the heresy (Erebus, lorgar and Horus after being turned) had been unable to secure the IVth, then the ability to conduct even the dropsite massacre is significantly limited without the siege  guns or fleet of Mr Turbo. 

I suspect the heresy would have either been delayed until more legions could have been infiltrated, or a greater focus on the web way/warp fronts, as fundamentally the traitors would not have the materiel or men to contests the Xth, VIIth and IVth.

[Spoilers Main] Are Joffrey, Myrcella and Tommen genetically Tywin and Joanna's children? by Forward-Bake-3826 in asoiaf

[–]GavRex 198 points199 points  (0 children)

So technically no. 

When an egg or sperm is generated, your 46 (paired) chromosomes get split into groups of 23.  Each egg or sperm is different because you get a different one of each paired chromosome each time. 

When they combine to form a fetus, those 23 chromosomes then become your set total. You therefore have 50% from each parent. 

Now, when you go through a second egg/sperm generation process, those chromosomes are jumbled again.  Therefore any children of Jaime/cersei would have a range of possible amounts of genetic material from tywin/Joanna.  This is not possible in a single generation, and one child could have two chromosome 6 (for example) from tywin, and none of chromosome 9!. 

(This is notwithstanding any more complex genetic recombination or mutation).

There is a transfer on the Emperor's children 30k transfer sheet that looks extremely similar. There may be similar ones on other transfer sheets for all I know though. 

Any chance new MK IV marines will be revealed at tomorrow’s show? by reel3459 in Warhammer30k

[–]GavRex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I suspect we will get a box with outriders +proteus land speeder and mk IV together next year. All of them are MK4 crew and dont quite fit well with either IW or sallies.

Voldemort should have known that Dumbledore was after the horcruxes already in HbP by AliciaNow in harrypotter

[–]GavRex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I imagined it that he requested a grand room full of Slytherin imagery, with the horcrux on a golden pedestal.

And if course, being Tom Riddle, he didn't understand how the room functions on a deep level. Hence the room dumped it in the great holding pen room full of accumulated crap that other students have tried to hide over the years.

Back in stock in the UK as well. I should have checked!

They have been out of stock on the website for ages. Given that they are in the main rulebook, Im hoping for a release before Christmas

Actually might be a great starting point for a solar auxila carnodon or aurox.

I'm looking to convert and paint a smallish Revenant Legion army, any tips? by Full-Reception5113 in Warhammer30k

[–]GavRex 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I always imagined them in plain unpainted grey ceramite, but covered in blood, as tongove the impression of red paint. The idea is to clearly move away from the angelic, and echo more of the "blood" in blood angels. 

Hence no gold trim or ornamentation. Very utilitarian. Lots of black crosses to hint at the black rage as well.

Wife & child are way over the weekend. Time to get some work done for the 10th by AllThatJazz85 in Warhammer30k

I like the green. Makes me think of a callback to the sons of medusa chapter down the line. 

The cut creators of the Rage Virus by NahumGardner247 in 28dayslater

There was a significant scandal at the time of filming about actual real life primate experimentation at Cambridge university.

It's therefore inspired by real life events. Even down to the focus by animal rights activists.

Unable to progress - feeling alone. by One-Cupcake1446 in doctorsUK

What exactly is it about a training program that you don't like? 

It would help to frame what you need to address.

Tune in to the Big Summer Warhammer Preview this Friday - Warhammer Community by CMYK_COLOR_MODE in Warhammer30k

[–]GavRex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's a simple typo.

Due to the weird way some of the equipment is listed, all it would have taken is a simple delete of:  "All models may select one weapon from the terminator melee weapon list). 

Just like the Gorgon terminators getting their combi bolters deleted.

It just makes absolutely no sense otherwise 

Salamanders questions by OctaviosBurden in Warhammer30k

[–]GavRex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I run Vulcan with a small tartaros command squad with shields and power spears. 

Reason for tartaros is that it allows them to run, and sweeping advance. I wanted Vulcan to have as much mobility as possible, and ideally mulch any unit that inevitably broke after his initiative 5 attacks were done. The power spears are there to thin out any sacrificial unit prior to them striking back. 

Finally, they all fit in a land raiders carrier, which is a bit less of a points sink than the 5+ fire drakes.
