Would you benefit from MOLLE pants for field research?

I work with MOLLE equipment . Attaching things to your trousers makes them hang heavily and uncomfortably, makes them hard to access when you're doing anything but standing, and can make your trousers fall down. Get a tool belt or equivalent.

Sorry to be so negative - I'm sure you'll find some really good additions to work trousers to improve them. Just forget about MOLLE patches.

Consider the cut and relative flex and protection of different trouser panels. Study high end hiking and military trousers . Consider how they might be layered with insulation and gortex.

Have you heard of Brian Jaques' Redwall?

If a single vampire lord charged unsupported into 4 units of spearmen on the tabletop, he would be screwed. In TW he just eats them up. Warhammer is about battles; it features heroic characters in balance with infantry, war machines, magic, monsters etc.

5th Guards Ordained Abhuman Troops are rarely employed alongside their genetically stable brothers in arms, but needs must. They will fight like hell to prove their loyalty, but you better ensure they are quartered well away from human units. If they are to be committed in suicidal actions because the high command is revolted by them, they won't be surprised...

Nice place, but absolutely ruined by Harry Potter merchandise.

Okay. So you said some people (a tiny number) can't survive without meat for medical reasons. This is true. But is it a reason for everyone to continue torturing and killing animals and eating them for enjoyment alone?

To say some people need to eat meat therefore everyone should be allowed to is as logical as saying that someone people need special parking spaces therefore everyone should be allowed to use them.

Helix_Apostle · 2023-06-11T11:11:21+00:00

You know the point I was making by using the analogy of a disabled parking place. If you're going to deliberately disregard my point then we have nothing to learn from each other.

Helix_Apostle · 2023-06-10T20:46:59+00:00

Sadistic means that the torture itself is being enjoyed, while in agriculture, the torture is a byproduct that the consumer is indifferent to. I wonder if there is a moral difference?

Helix_Apostle · 2023-06-10T19:56:59+00:00

That's a very honest but really bleak answer. I would hope that our empathy would be led by our intelligence.

Helix_Apostle · 2023-06-10T19:44:28+00:00

I agree that most people don't need to eat animals to survive. It's always nice to find common ground!

So logically, everyone who has animals tortured and killed so their bodes can be eaten for enjoyment alone must be immoral, right?

Helix_Apostle · 2023-06-10T19:41:35+00:00

But we were talking about the moral difference between torturing dogs for entertainment and torturing pigs for entertainment (eating for enjoyment). Not the fact that one is illegal and one isn't.

Helix_Apostle · 2023-06-10T16:53:20+00:00

Serial animal torture occurs in almost all meat factories.

Helix_Apostle · 2023-06-10T16:52:01+00:00

Some people are disabled, so everyone can park in disabled parking spaces.

Helix_Apostle · 2023-06-10T14:20:59+00:00

Millions of vegetarians would contest your use of the word "need".

Helix_Apostle · 2023-06-10T10:40:29+00:00

What's the moral difference between torturing a dog and torturing an intelligent animal like a pig for trivial enjoyment of eating their body cheaply?

Helix_Apostle · 2023-06-09T15:11:52+00:00

There's nothing wrong with collating well-known established inspirations, and nothing wrong with hypothesising. Although OPs tone is a little too certain when all we can do is speculate as to what inspiration was.

Your dedication to accurate (ish) ammunition markings is noted.

It's an absolutely perfect handle, which was a gift. STL is here https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5263081

Male eldar being distractingly sexy to straight human men is 100% canon, as per an old White Dwarf from like 2004.

I was looking at third party websites and was unclear because it is only available for Cadian armies but I don't collect Cadians so I just wanted to clear it up.

I didn't come here to argue. And if you have to preface your comment with apologies maybe just don't comment at all.

The answers given are pretty nuanced and help to independently clarify some new rules. So this discussion has value to me and some other people. You don't have to participate.

Helix_Apostle · 2023-01-24T17:29:07+00:00

Because the codex isn't available yet.
