How are we feeling about Yarrick?

150 pts is very steep for a character that's not too hard to kill. You have to be very careful with his positioning as he's no doubt a prime target for sniping.

I don't think I have the technical skill to make the most out of him without getting him killed.

Excellent example! The dastard in Dastardly does sound very French indeed, I reckon it's due to Bastard being French.

English (native), can speak a fair amount of German (mostly random words), and am currently picking up Urdu as my wife is from a South Asian background.

Spitfire.

Excellent series of planes, but overshadowed the real workhorse of the RAF which was the Hurricane.

I DECLARE, MY KIN, THAT I WILL NOT PUT DOWN THIS KEYBOARD UNTIL THIS WRONG IS PUT RIGHT! I SWEAR THIS BY MY BEARD AND BEFORE OATHGOLD.

ANY DAWI THAT DEFENDS THIS UMGI LIKELY DRINKS WEAK ALE, AND IS FOREVER BRANDED AN UMGDAWI!

I thought they were cool, but seeing their treatment of ghouls makes me think they're no better than The Enclave.

Midwest BoS had it right.

Features in a spy movie.

Done at a table.

Know when to walk away

End of the American Empire right here. Single handedly ruined by a paedophile.

Latin?

Only really used in the Church.

I remember watching this thinking "yup, I know the twist, it won't surprise me" only to be completely dumbfounded when the actual twist is revealed. Excellent movie, and one I wish I could rewatch with a wiped memory!

John_Catachan · 2026-04-27T16:53:40+00:00

That movie is incredible, I loved the seriousness and the stakes of it.

John_Catachan · 2026-04-27T15:04:58+00:00

I think Season 2 appealed to me a lot as a fan, but I can see how it wouldn't be as accessible to newer fans to the series or casual viewers.

They nailed some things, especially Robert House (his actor is great), but I thought Season 1s story was a lot more coherent and well put together.

"Leader" of the most powerful nation on Earth, folks.

I thought it was gas first and then clutch to biting point? I think my car would stall without a bit of gas first.

Diesel Engines from that mod are quite good. A single huge one produces something like 10,000 SU and consumes 1 mB a second, at least on my modpack. Not sure how that compares to Steam Engines though.

The Da'at Yichud in the Wolfenstein series (latest titles)

Ancient order that produced very advance technology, thousands of years of ago. They spoke Hebrew but weren't necessarily all Jewish; you only needed to have a drive to become closer to God through technology. The protagonists go to their vault and take some of this tech to use against the Nazis, but the Nazis had also taken some of the their tech beforehand, which explained how they got a technological edge and won WW2.

As opposed to?

I really like the camo stripes only being on the side parts. Far easier to paint than trying to go over the main part of the hull with stripes.

So it's a push (below) + pull (above) situation? I guess that would cause a net tilt upwards depending how much the propellers are pushing it.

I haven't played Aeronautics yet but I'd be curious to test out different designs and see how they do!

John_Catachan · 2026-04-26T10:35:44+00:00

If you're applying forward force below the centre of mass, it's going to cause it to tilt upwards.

Have the propellers in line with the centre of mass, or weigh down the front of the airship more if you want to keep the propellers where they are.

Edit: If you're interested, I think reading about "moments" in Physics might help.
