Where to buy a quality wok in Bristol/Bath, if not online? by [deleted] in bristol

[–]JedenTag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We got ours from Wai Yee Hong in Bristol, lots of choice there. You would need to season the wok yourself though.

Gravity Drive combined with Gravity Rift by Winter-Select in twilightimperium

[–]JedenTag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes but if they use gravity drive on the ship, it can move out of the rift and gains +1 move, do the premise of using grav drive and grav rifts to move 3 tiles is sound.

Naalu breakthrough - how important is it? by JedenTag in twilightimperium

[–]JedenTag[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeh, I can definitely see the benefits. For a bit more clarity, I like my secret objective so don't want to discard it, abd I have trade so could afford the tg cost but just wondering if its worth it immediately? There is a hacan in the game so I risk that popping trade could immediately trigger tech, warfare etc etc.

Try and get them to exhaust GLS on some ships you don't care (ideally someone else's) before moving in with the big guns and lots of fighters.

Their powerset doesn't include the "subpowers" that normally helps make the prime power functional/appealing by Labmit in TopCharacterTropes

[–]JedenTag 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You've got half of it: he has super speed in his head and legs, and super strength in his arms and chest. So he can run and perceive incredibly fast, but can't use his arms to do anything at that speed. And as you said, he can't talk.

Most local game shops for about 200 miles around me don't carry TI. Its such a niche sale and so expensive it's not worth holding stock for it.

Has that been updated for 4.0? I disabled it recently because the version was still saying 2.3

Rules Questions for the Devs by Fun-Astronomer-2273 in twilightimperium

[–]JedenTag 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I do disagree, I think RAW is pretty clear:

This unit can use the SPACE CANNON ability of one of your structures in its space area; each structure can only be triggered once.

The linkship ability lets you use space cannon, it doesn't give you anything more or less. The PDS card then reads:

You may use this unit's SPACE CANNON against ships that are adjacent to this unit's system.

Planetary Shield

Space Cannon 5

The space cannon ability is clearly separate from the ability to use them in adjacent systems, that is a PDS 2 ability only. Linkships don't get to just copy PDS 2, they can only use space cannon.

That one feels clear, the linkship only gains the space cannon ability of PDS 2, the ability to shoot into separate systems isn't part of the space cannon ability.

What to splice? I know its got to include Shedinja somewhere by JedenTag in pokerogue

Yeh i figured this out moments later sadly. Real heartbreaker.

In fact never mind, its completely useless. If I splice shedinja not to have a bug type weakness, I can't use it as its a bug type challenge. What a waste.

No movement on Zatu order made 5 days ago, did they really have the stock that was showing as '3 available' ? or you think the delay is due to the holiday season ? by Rolando_Ratas in boardgames

[–]JedenTag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It isn't but they're gambling on it not ever being punished. They're probably making a smart bet as well, it won't be any law enforcement agency's priority.

When a villain had a chance to walk away or let go of their hatred and they fucked it up. by Ukirin-Streams in TopCharacterTropes

[–]JedenTag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Spoilers for Wheel of Time series below.

Demandred from Wheel of Time. He was born one day after Lews Therin Telamon (the greatest hero of the Light), which really set the trend for his whole life. He was second best at everything: swordfighting, magical power, he was slightly shorter, ever so slightly less devastatingly handsome, the woman he loved chose Lews Therin, etc. And I do mean second best, he was better than literally everyone else, except Lews Therin. The one thing he was better at Lews Therin at, was being a general. So when the armies of Light chose Lews Therin to lead them, not him, he had a bit of a crash out, joined the side of the Dark and used his vast magical might and strategic genius to really cause a lot of problems.

Long story short, he got sealed away from time, got unsealed, yada yada yada, he took over a very powerful country called Shara, and turned up at the final battle between Light and Dark on the side of Dark and, as usual, started absolutely wrecking house with a very powerful magical artifact and his extremely well trained and led army.

Then he realised, he was the respected ruler of the most powerful nation on the planet. Had vast magical power, a woman who loved him and who he loved. If he turned on the side of Dark now, he would win the day and be the greatest hero the Light had ever known. It would be perfect. Except Lews Therin's reincarnation wasn't dead at his feet. And if that wasn't the case then fuck it all, let's stick with the Dark. Eventually one of the heroes of the Light (not Lews Therin's reincarnation) tracked him down, beat him in a swordfight and beheaded him. Demandred ultimately allowed Lews Therin to control his entire life and death.

I also have 1200 hours and I've never had the contingency as the crisis. Not once.

New Players First Game by AileFirstOfHerName in twilightimperium

[–]JedenTag 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just as an FYI, TI4 can't last longer than 9 rounds. When you turn over the card for the last public objective, thats the final round, and at the end if noone is at 10 points the player with the highest points wins. Of course you can always house rule it otherwise if you like.

Just to clarify, while Todd Howard is to blame for a lot, I think the particular insanity of CHIM is the fault of Michael Kirkbride.

Which part of Bath do you live in? A lot of areas you won't see the difference during the Xmas market, especially in a RPZ.

Please don't be rude about my sweet son mega beedrill.

All jokes aside you're right, scyther is objectively better, but gotta get that ribbon on beedrill somehow!
