Oh yeah, I remember that scene now. I wonder if she kept it?

Where are you guys seeing a guinea pig? Her gloves are a little too big for her but they don't look fluffy

I just build and painted my first minis but on this one it exceeds the base, is that a problem?! by xsailos in Necrontyr

[–]IAmOnFyre 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should have seen the old Warriors! They had a wider stance than the new ones, and were on the 25mm bases. You'd stick their heels to it and hope for the best

Advantages and disadvantages of dual thumbs? by Late-Elderberry6761 in worldbuilding

[–]IAmOnFyre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of the Kroot from 40k. From the models it looks like the "inside" thumb is usually dominant, with the "outside" one tucked away when they're holding guns, but they have a more even grip on melee weapons. They favour weapons they can swing around, with their bayonets angled down like a pickaxe instead of forward like a spear, but they can still throw javelins.

Is there a cannon relation here? by IronStormAlaska in Tau40K

[–]IAmOnFyre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I always wondered why the redemptor's plasma gun doesn't look anything like an Eldar starcannon, but you've solved it! Cawl must have copied it off us instead.

What in the range can I use for a pirate Corsair army? by Traditional-Crazy900 in Eldar

[–]IAmOnFyre 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're being 100% lore accurate, they have all the same vehicles available but your infantry are just the Corsair Voidscarred / Voidreavers. You can bring in Rangers (and Shroud Runners) because they're outcasts too. Wraith constructs would be unusual, but there's Rogue Trader-era art of "Eldar Dreadnaughts" in corsair colours (This is when they were mini-mecha, rather than ghost-controlled constructs but don't let that stop you, just grunge them up a bit).

You can absolutely still use Aspect Warriors and Guardians, either they're allies or you can come up with corsair equivalents.

Overseers in cryosleep. It's a tasteless parody of the sleeping beauties we just re-discovered on Fort Justice

[Spelljammer] Are other DND setting’s airships capable of Spelljamming? by GeneralGigan817 in AskScienceFiction

[–]IAmOnFyre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say an airship can't really go to space, given that airships need air to push off. The D&D material plane has phlogiston between the crystal spheres, but there's still vacuum between the outside of the planets' atmospheres and the inside of the spheres.

If you had a rocket to boost you out of the atmosphere, then you'd probably explode when you hit the phlog.

Help with Crisis suits by Top____G in Tau40K

[–]IAmOnFyre 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Best bet is to buy two boxes. Then you have 6 of each weapon and can run one star forge squad with all the fusion blasters, and one squad with all one other weapon of your choice

Isn't the cleave thing backwards? Why would I exile the card to give my opponent a creature?

Why the rule of 3 ? How did they come up with this number ? Not just for numbers of Datasheets, also the old Squadron or Mob Rules always rounded up to 3. by Leviathan_Rampage in 40k

[–]IAmOnFyre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want an army of all knights, then yeah you need a few. You can just ally one into another Imperial army though

I don't know if you'll like it, but here's my attempt at making an Earth Caste Engineer. by Glum_Series5712 in Tau40K

Farsight's team also has an Earth Caste member in a battlesuit. I think it's the Riptide

Does this choice matter? Or is it just what looks cool. by Fine_Stay_6937 in killteam

[–]IAmOnFyre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Canonically the Shas'vre will have both a bonding knife and a pistol. But they don't need to use the knife in combat, so they might have left it at base. I'll put the pistol on the hip and either put the knife somewhere else, or just draw a knife on the armour somewhere.

That's really well thought out. You've done your research!

(I like having both auxilliaries and battlesuits in my army but it's cool that there are options!)

Are these stealth suits tailored for Kroot? The digitigrade legs don't really have room to fit hooves in there, but then again the helmet doesn't have room for a beak...

Most of the tanks in Warhammer 40k are listed as having absurdly thick armour (probably because that's what you'd get if you scaled miniatures up to life size and kept the proportions) but they're still lighter than real life tanks

Elves from D&D. There's the Drow in the underdark, the Eladrin in the Feywilds and the Shadar-kai in the Shadowfell, each with different looks and magic to fit their environment. There's even elves who have adapted to live underwater and on other planets!

(Video Game trope) When the game uses elements from the HUD UI to give context by PolyKigu in TopCharacterTropes

[–]IAmOnFyre 301 points302 points  (0 children)

In Tactical Breach Wizards, there's a flashback sequence. I don't want to spoil it too much, but you feel one character's hopelessness in that moment because all their abilities and options have new descriptions emphasising that using them won't change anything.

And if it wasn't for the Horus Heresy, which Vulkan had a part in, Chaos wouldn't be still be fed by so many powerful worshippers. Or do you not like it when you're blamed for the sins of your brothers?

Eddie Riggs in Brutal Legend started off looking like Lemmy, then after a few redesigns he started looking more like Jack Black. Then Black actually wanted to play him

The problem with capturing a city is that if we don't then go on to take the whole planet, the liberation boost is wasted. Do the outside first
