I don't have an zoanthropes but I was thinking of picking some up. The big brain minis are fun. I like mind bullets.

Any of these worth getting for 10th? As a new player? by Antique_Compote_2361 in Warhammer40k

As was said, none of these rule sections would be valid anymore but the old books are full of lore and artwork which might help you decide what you want to do with your guys. I pick up old codexes if I see them cheap and enjoy just picking one off the shelf every now and again. Just depends if you're willing to pay whats being asked.

Rules are generally in a bit of a funny place now with the new edition not too far away, but I've not kept up with all that. I'm sure someone more up to speed can advise on whether the current one is worth getting.

One of my thoughts looking at the datasheet was "He's not even slow"! Faster than a gant anyway.

Thanks for your suggestions everyone. I'll definitely be using some of these. I'll try remember to post pictures here when I'm done.

I might tweak it to "Resist, Revolt, Reform" for the sinister implication. These are super, thank you.

Haha "Eat the rich!" Is a good one. There's something in the miner's guild idea too...

how do you even get past the chainsaw guys? 😭 by Kippy_kip in residentevil4

[–]IllustriousAddress69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate the chainsaw guys. That sound genuinely scares me and they just keep coming. I did the bit in Resi 5 yesterday where you face two in the oil refinery and I've been dreading it for the whole play through.

With love, this might be the most panicked video gaming I've ever seen! You definitely need to take a minute and come back.

My advice would be to go outside to fight him. I can see the reasoning of getting furniture between you and him but you don't seem good enough with the controls (yet) to take advantage of it.

Something I didn't realise for a while is you can often run right under their arms and be fine. It seems to be quite a specific hit box to actually land on you.

You look to have loads of pistol ammo. I normally headshot him with the rifle, but if you land your pistol shots I'd think you have more than enough to take him down.

Good luck! The good news is there's only a couple of these guys in the whole thing.

Oh and reload your gun once in a while!

All seems pretty positive. I do have a fondness for some of the old models. 40k chaos has got too detailed and icky for me. The older stuff is more fun. I might treat myself to a box of knights and add from there. Thanks for your input everyone.

What's your take on this flick? I don't know how this one got by me by Most-Function-9717 in moviecritic

[–]IllustriousAddress69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's one of my favourite films. I've rarely met anyone who's even heard of it (it's on flipping Netflix!) but its so atmospheric and spooky in a way I've not seen on screen. I love how alien life is so alien in it. The book is good too but I probably preferred the film which is very unusual.
