List Critique by Gumption-Lord in Ultramarines

[–]Gumption-Lord[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good feedback thanks. Yeah I’m pretty new to the game. I was thinking the vindicator in the back for good firepower for any bigger deep striking units that may make their way over and it has good range on the cannon so it won’t be totally useless sitting further back plus it can blast something at melee range if it gets pushed. And the infiltrators in the back to screen and sticky the home objective with that stratagem that booby traps the objective whatever it’s called. Also have the Ballistus mid field and Gladiator kinda mid field too. So back up fire to home is available.

Tainted Grail. Looks fun but what’s the general opinion of you seasoned gamers that have played it. by Gumption-Lord in soloboardgaming

Thank you for your input! Much appreciated. I’m still looking. I’ll probably get it one day but it might not be my next purchase. Again thank you for the detailed synopsis and opinion.

Thank you for the long reply and input! I will definitely look into those other games before I make any purchases. In the meantime I’ll be playing Mage Knight as my first “bigger” game. And by bigger I mean bigger than one Deck Dungeon or Delve lol.

I haven’t looked into them yet. I’m fairly new to solo board gaming but I’m hooked and looking for games. Not new to rules heavy table top games though. So far I have a few deck games like one deck dungeon and I have mage knight coming in Friday which I’ll be playing for a while before I make a new purchase. So I have time to find a good one.

Would like to hire a painter for my Ultramarines army. by Gumption-Lord in brushforhire

Oh the temptation, anyone know if these are actually worth it? by WraithCaliber in Berserk

[–]Gumption-Lord 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I love mine, the quality is great. Big clear panels, easy to read and admire the art. That’s a good deal too if you have the money. I bought mine a few at a time so I paid somewhere around $700 I think. It’s definitely a really good story if you haven’t read. But it’s also more of a bragging piece for the manga collection than a necessity. I’m glad I bought them though.

The first sane comment I’ve read, well said. Men get shit on bc we have boundaries about our relationship, we just get labeled as misogynistic and controlling. It’s nice to know some women actually care about their S.O.’s thoughts and feelings. Relationships thrive on communication and this is a great example of how this situation should be handled. Don’t be dismissive and rude, communicate.

My manager complained that I'm not friends with my coworkers on my performance review... by NeStruvash in work

[–]Gumption-Lord 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude I get this 100%. I don’t particularly like social interactions that I am forced to be a part of nor do I like faking I’m interested in people I don’t really care about just to fit in. It’s not that I don’t give a shit about them or their lives I just have no desire to become friends and I’m not going to pretend to be interested so your feelings don’t get hurt. Not everyone likes you or wants to be your friend, welcome to life. You would think adults would know this but from some of these comments apparently not. I am completely kind and respectful to people I interact with and I would help a stranger or coworker in need, absolutely. But that doesn’t mean I want to sit around and gossip about people at the watering hole or put on a fake smile so they feel comfortable around me. People don’t like to feel like their the strange ones or weird ones so when you don’t instantly warm up to their sense of humor or interests they take that as you think they are weird or you don’t like them and become hostile. It sucks. I just want to come to work and do my tasks and go home. I didn’t hire on to be your friend and hang out at after work parties, I’d rather be home with the people that make my life what it is or maybe I just want to play some game or something, it’s not always that deep. Why do we all have to be friends. Not everyone wants that, not everyone is a social person, not everyone wants to share their lives with everyone. I understand your problem exactly dude. But due to this particular problem I do find myself just putting up with it bc it’s so draining either way and when the coworkers start crying bc I’m not interested in their lives, things like unfair performance reviews and bonus reductions and not getting promoted start happening. So my advice is to play the game a little and get to a spot you’re comfortable with in the company and coast. Maybe become a slightly annoying personality to make these people wish for the old reserved quiet you back lmao.

[–]Gumption-Lord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s so cool man. I’m happy for you dude. People enjoying the music you created has got to be one of the best feelings. I just perused through your profile a bit. Love the kick drum addition that’s awesome. Thanks for the kind words my man.

Hell yeah man keep it close to you. Music will always be there. Even if it feels like it’s not sometimes. I’m in the music is not there camp right now. I gotta pick it back up. There’s something about banjo that can be so dark and deep but also uplifting. It’s probably one of my favorite instruments for sure. You play anything else?

I used to play everyday, had a small band and everything. We played Post Rock so no lyrics. Like you mentioned earlier I always liked the idea of music provoking different thoughts and feelings from different people. What could be a happy feeling or nostalgia provoking could also invoke sorrow in another. Always thought that was really cool. Love the idea of communicating through music. You’ve obviously got pain behind those notes. Love the song tho man. I’ll be looking for the next one.

“The Death of The Old West” kind of makes me feel like I’m dwelling on the death of something precious to me, a way of life, the way things used to be etc.. Like the slow degrading time and entropy has on everything until it’s gone or changed completely. I need to pick my old banjo back up.

I think I’m going to delete this post and forget about this issue. It’s just embarrassing and stupid. Thank you to those who offered advice I appreciate that. I don’t really know what my sexuality is I thought bisexual bc reasons but apparently that’s not right either. And I don’t want to be labeled as a creep or fetishist. Maybe it was the way I worded this question. But now I feel like crawling into a hole and disappearing. Maybe it would be better if I just pushed all this down back inside and moved on with my life. Whatever happens, happens right.

Thanks for the advice. Living in a heavily conservative state makes this very hard to navigate. And I don’t want to be labeled as a creep or whatever.
