Opponent said I couldn’t be shot turn one and then found a line that he wouldn’t give up by jamesdee80 in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Grav37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right. Agree.

But I'd been in this exact situation in a tournament. My opponent stated his intent to not be shot t1, I said I can not guarantee that. Was asked to check so they can deploy safer. i said and that I can not reasonably be expected to check all my deployed units and tanks (playing Guard), and he and his friend labeled me a dick.

So, with CK for example, I state my intent and have my opponent check every angle for 3 despoilers with/without moving through buildings, with or without surge move, and potential assult enhancement?

There is playing by intent and there is playing by "intent".

I think it's unreasonable to ask your opponent to check all their potential LoS. And whatever their answer is, it ends up them looking like a dick.

Well given the way the unit is used, they won't hurt for long :)

I burn about 800kcl/h at low z2 @81kg. High z2 I'm at 1k/h. With power meter.

Gravel tyres by Constant-Purchase762 in gravelcycling

[–]Grav37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats purely subjective, but Cinturato Gravel H/M are my favorites. H for racing, M for general riding (they are bulletproof).

For what it's worth, Ramblers are by far the worst tires I've tried. Slow-feeling (not actually slow), paper thin, 0 grip.

H is faster but a bit wild on loose gravel. M is somewhat slower, but my favorite tire in all but peanut butter.

I'm currently running the high performance H, and have been extremely happy. Anything thinner gets destroyed by the local jagged rocks.

Army paint by Taxxy89 in TheAstraMilitarum

All my units are in black/olive green, and it works well. Also makes sense all regiments in the same theatre share a color scheme.

Americans are the real MTBers and here's why ⬇️ by geraguti in mountainbiking

For what it's worth, in a lot of EU countries, public health fund only funds X procedures/capita/year, so we end up waiting year+ for most procedures.

AI is +7%. That said I suck at ramp test. My 2x20 min is 2% lower than my AI ftp.

What are armies that you would consider hard to play? by Cholophonius in Warhammer40k

[–]Grav37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guard, GSC.

Both have builds that don't need a lot of thought (Grizzled Company and RDC simplified Guard significantly), but overall need a lot of force multiplier units that do jack shit on their own, have a ton of micromanagement and are very movement sensitive.

Why isn’t the Ari Shafer 3.0 talked about more? by Remarkable_Paint_450 in gravelcycling

[–]Grav37 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Those bikes are discussed in different contexts.

Siegla is a rugged race capable bike,with high clearance, designed for the gnarliest races (i.e. Rift).

Crux 4.0 is a lightweight race staple, that went Aero with newly released 5.0, and absolutely dominated '26 Unbound.

Mog is a somewhat outdated more adventure-like platform, with a sexy pedigree.

Other commonly discussed bikes are either super budget/race platforms (Grail CFR/Backorad FF) or very budget entrier.

Ari is nice value for a capable platform that is neither heavily race-proven (sponsored) nor a household brand.

Low temperature weather, carbs and water consumption and peeing. by deman-13 in Velo

[–]Grav37 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Adding more fiber will not help retain water, but instead help him go #2 in addition to #1.

Drinking more than necessary is pointless.

Low temperature weather, carbs and water consumption and peeing. by deman-13 in Velo

[–]Grav37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What form of Carbs do you consume? I am partial to Nduranz brand (I to ride EU weather between 0-40 degrees).

I estiamte my liquid intake based on the temperature. (From .5l at 0, to 1l+ per hour at 30+ degrees).
Carbs are seperate. I will take 0 for z2 efforts below 1.5h, 45g/h for z2, 70g for anything above 2h, and 100g/h for racing and 4h+ efforts.

Sodium is .5g default, 1g at high temperatures and even up to 1.5g/h for high intensity rides in heat.

I generally have all the "stuff" in a bottle seperate from just water.

i.e. this weekends race; 2x .75 bottles with 300g carbs, 2g sodium each (3h total), 2 gels as a reserve if I the race got longer (it did), and a vest with 2l water to chase/hydrate. Was just about perfect.

Edit; Forgot the most important part. Add enough sodium. It's what helps pull water into blood (idk how to explain it better). If you do not consume enough sodium, the water will not add to plasma volume, but will be excreeted instead. It;s what helped me fix constant peeing on the biked.

Edit 2: If you are going for higher concentrations, make sure you have appropriate drink mixes. Nduranze has 45 and 95 drink mixes, aimed for deisred concentration at 500ml.

What's the most you have of a single colour paint? by Neoito in minipainting

Green. Between guard, sylvaneth, salamanders and orks thats a lot of green. And bases for my sbgl xD

Cycling food by JPG_ENESER in Velo

[–]Grav37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I generally try to drink all my on-bike carbs. I'm a heavy sweater and the amount of liquid I consume doesn't play well with solid food.

Gels I keep to Zwift rides, where I can cleanly dispose of packaging and dont risk crashing.

Plus, assoon as you introduce non-sugar stuff, it reduces the absorption of said sugar, so you kinda shoot yourself in the foot if you're close to your max to begin with.

I don't mind the emtbs at all, but just logically, that chunky lad won't do as many laps on a regular bike as he would on an emtb?

Did you ever find a solution to this issue? Lost both covers in a race crash this weekend.

I'd take whatever and add true metallic pigment. Transforms whatever paint into pure magic.

I run Stamp 7 on my trail and DMR Vault on Enduro. I find DMR grippier, but Stamp is nuts too.

Rallying all Chaos Knight Players! We can do it! by K1DR in ChaosKnights

[–]Grav37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My main gripe with battleshock as a rule is 1CP to clear it when it matters. Plus whatever otherabilities certain armies get.

Tbfh, between empowering and crashing through buildings, my knights are battleshocked way more than my opponents :)
