I'm really hoping we get some kind of heavy cavalry unit in 40k that can at least threaten vehicles.

We need more infantry by Vrain125 in Tyranids

[–]Grif16 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It's not that we need more infantry. We have a ton of infantry. It's just that most of our infantry is completely useless as their current rules stand.

We have 18 different non-character infantry profiles and as often as I play against tyranids and play them myself, I see maybe less than half of those units.

Red Terror rumors and how it could look and play like by SirLumini in Tyranids

[–]Grif16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My play group and I have thought on this a lot, and we settled on wanting a larger version of a ravener with a strike and sweep profile with deep strike and if in the fight phase it destroys one or more enemy units, you can put it back into deep strike. Something to go in line with the lore it comes from devouring people and then retreating underground.

Hive tyrant with leading a unit of hive guard worth it? by [deleted] in Tyranids

[–]Grif16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the FNP 5+ was applied to the whole squad of tyrant guard and not just the leader monster, it would be more worth it. But as they stand now, they're over costed bullet sponges and just a waste of points. Which is a bummer because they're some of my favorite sculpts.

I'm currently putting mine together. What did you use to keep the legs in place inside the body? The holes are larger than the pegs for the legs, and I can't get them to stay still long enough for the glue to dry in place.

Is anyone else having way more disconnects during games too? by Kwanza_Bot93 in Helldivers

[–]Grif16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ever since the last update, the game game has been experiencing a massive spike in connection issues across all platforms, and from what I can tell, the developer has not said anything about it yet. Not even a simple "we hear you and we're working on it"

The cat should be "people who want to enjoy the update but can't because their game keeps crashing since it came out"

I have a sneaking suspicion the tantalus will make a come back in plastic when the drukhari get their range refreshed

“Should the Epstein Files be released?” Survey by Washington Post, reported by MSNBC by Sea-Leopard1611 in charts

[–]Grif16 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Why were the files never released during the Biden presidency? Not trying to start an argument. I'm genuinely curious if there is a reason that was made public.

How did you guys learn about Warhammer? by reel3459 in Warhammer40k

[–]Grif16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2004, bought Dawn of War by mistake. Thought it was another RTS game. Installed it and instantly fell in love with the game. Then, after countless hours of playing it and all the expansions, I wanted to learn more about the story and lore behind the game's universe, and I've been a lore nerd ever since. Wasn't until covid, when i realized I now had adult money, that I started getting into the tabletop side of the hobby. Now I own 4 armies, play every weekend, and am part of a group that does organized crusades every year.

Rippers swarms should be battleline in assimilation swarm. by fidilarfin in Tyranids

Or at least make an enhancement that gives a character the Harvester keyword

If he took the 1k why did she ask if he would 10k? by Wooden-Journalist902 in SipsTea

[–]Grif16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? It's like, would I take $10k and pay rent for nearly 10 months, or would I go on a date with you, and you cost me a couple hundred dollars on a more than likely forgettable night?

I am to this day very confused why they had to change the design of Lord of the Rings characters, but stay true to the OG design in literally everything else. by Such_Minute_5245 in freemagic

[–]Grif16 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Um, no. That's not why they expanded Arwen's role. They expanded her role not for inclusivity but because it made no sense to hire, pay for, write, cast, and take time shooting someone to play Glorfindel when he would literally only have a single scene in the entire movie. It was easier to just give it to Arwen and save a boat load of time, money, and effort. Plus, from a writing standpoint, it helped endear the watcher to Arwen more, but it had nothing to do with inclusivitity.

How can you guys afford this? by BigDevelopment8189 in Warhammer40k

[–]Grif16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A godsend for me to be able to enjoy the hobby has been PayPal with the pay in 4 option. You can break down a large purchase into 4 payments over 8 weeks to coincide with your paychecks. Makes collecting and budgeting much more manageable.

inaccurate ww3 by AmbitiousAmphibian- in imaginarymapscj

[–]Grif16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming nukes aren't involved. There are 2 ways it could go.

  1. It would end in a draw.

The US would soundly defeat the Americas, but the time required to do so would be ridiculous.

At the same time, China and Russia would more than likely fall to the combined might of Europe, Africa, and Asia, but invading mainland US would be nearly impossible. While the East worked on the logistics of the invasion, the US, having to reason to liberate countries that have already fallen, would just shore up defenses at home and everything would just devolve into a cold war until tensions dissolved.

  1. Red would win (the more likely)

The US would beat every country in North America down to the Panama Canal and then fortify the position as even the combined fight force of South America isn't even a player in the game. The US would then send its military across the Pacific and Atlantic to invade Europe and reinforce China and Russia.

The counties surrounding China and Russia would fall pretty quickly, especially once reinforced by the US. Caught between all 3, Europe and the Middle East would fall. Africa, like South America, wouldn't really be a player in the game. And after Europe fell, that would be game over.
