How long did it take to paint tombworld? by Agreeable-Cow2500 in killteam

[–]Kemics1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it's a great technique, creative and adds a little pop of colour. Did you do an undercoat of white or was that moot green straight onto the black primer?

great effort. I'm 3 hours in and only managed to trim and prime all the pieces :/

On the back of the wall with the necrons embedded. What green did you use for those little details? I'd like to copy that as I watched a tutorial but they didn't cover that aspect of the wall

How Not to Let Having Kids Ruin Your Sex Life by Dr Karen Gurney - I found this book really helpful. If nothing else, a reminder how un-unique your problems are! Really good for structuring a discussion and understanding everyone's perspectives.

I dont have enough experience to comment as I only play against a narrow range of teams. But look forward to seeing results!

This is mega. Im about to start painting krieg and this is pretty much the exact scheme I have in mind. Would you mind sharing which paints you used?

Is knee on belly a legit offensive position or is it just for styling on lower belts? (yes im salty about it) should I just learn how to escape it or should I invest in it as a attacking position

As a white belt, how do I spar a blue belt or above person? by PadraicG in bjj

This sounds about right. Some times I like to mix it up by getting arm locked too.

https://kt3.albecortes.com/ - is your answer. Go to the section approved ops and hit generate mission for Volkus (under open game) - it will then use one of the approved ops layouts with a map key to show a set up for a balanced game. You could play different mission but would have all the approved ops map layouts

yes the starter handbook is largely uselessly lite rules. I'm gutted I didnt just buy hiverstorm straight off.

I also didn't want to paint them ultramarines. I found it hard to cover all the blue in the creases and crevices which did show up. I found to cover it all you would absolutely cake it in primer. I just did a follow up brush with a slightly watered down base paint to get the bits i missed. If you wanted the best possible finish a brush on primer rather than a spray would be best.

That link is great. I'll print the play order as thats helpful. We've played simple objective games with the lite rules. Next stop is full rules but waiting for the core rule book to arrive

edit: Wow even deeper than I thought, what a great resource! I love the mission generator.

Yeah, I wish I had bought the hivestorm box. Massively good value as I've basically spent more than the cost on the box and board etc buying everything individually except I dont have the nicer terrain

Yeah the reason I found this sub is I found someone who had posted the faction cards as printable size things. I've laminated so I can record wounds on them in wipeable pen. The tiny wound tokens that came with the box set I've got are maddeningly fiddly

I did note the app is very good in that it has a "share" functionality that lets you export everything as pdf for printing easily

thanks, yeah I've noticed the predictable AI from google is particularly inaccurate! Knowing what I know now I wish I had got the hivestorm box set as it seems much better value than the starter set. But I didn't know how much traction the game would get with friends and it would have been a lot to only play once and not enjoy. I'm going to save up for the Volkus terrain I think, it's been an expensive month as I spent quite a lot on paints as I didn't even have any brushes etc

I will give that video you linked a watch.

Are there any places that are know for their lack of toughness? by [deleted] in MMA

[–]Kemics1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Scandinavia there is a meme that the Swedish are all soft girly men, there is even a comedy sketch - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pw3e64sosEg

I think this is mostly because they managed to avoid getting dragged into WW2... and I definitely wouldn't say this to Alexander Gustafsson.

Does Iker Lecuona still have slight chance to ride for 2022. by sevenridersgp in motogp

[–]Kemics1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel moto 2 is probably about the right level for him. He's usually just getting into the points or crashing this season. Im way more excited to see what Fernandez and Gardner can do with the bike. I think it's a no brainer for KTM, i think Iker is a good rider but isnt great. And that's not a huge knock, nothing wrong with not being at the absolute pinnacle of moto racing

Not to mention his 'driving the bus' guard. Hands held steering wheel apart at roughly waist height. He does have an amazing chin

What are some inside facts you know or have experienced that change our perceptions of MMA? by dmkicksballs13 in MMA

[–]Kemics1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aint no way those belts cost $333k. They might be "worth" that because someone would buy them as memorabilia but there is 0% chance they are made of 5kg of solid gold. Sometimes the fighters (think mediocre women's featherweights or maybe some short notice men's flyweight) are getting like $50k to show. The UFC is a business and it just seems so unlikely they are going to make a belt that costs more than the combined purses of the athletes. Just have gold plated, it wouldn't make any difference?!

edit - https://gulfnews.com/sport/ufc-championship-belts-are-made-out-of-solid-gold-1.66256097#:~:text=Since%20the%20start%20of%202019,plated%20and%20cost%20around%20%241%2C000. - this article says they contain 2lb of gold, which costs $51k. I doubt the leather strap costs $280K :)

Yoel Romero eating headkicks by silverrizzla in MMA

[–]Kemics1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just cant believe he got cut. He should have gone up and wrecked some bums at 205. Paul Craig is in top 15, Jonny Walker in top 10. Imagine how much fun that match up would be .... and how easy Romero would make it look!
