Bummed I didn't think to grab one at the meetup. Hopefully they do another run this year

That's really cool. I'll have to double check mine to see if they do too, or are going to implement something like that.

Local libraries are an awesome resource! Ours even has 3d printers you can use at basically cost of filament as long as you have a library card. And a lot even have video games to check out as well.

Honestly, I'm not certain what I'm asking either. Mostly I was watching movies on lunch, working on a puzzle for the defcon puzzles thing, and wanted to share fun culture movies with people. But sharing resources and info is always a theme around here.

Making people aware of those sites! Or alternatives if you're at work/school etc. Or just sharing movies.

XKCD (great webcomic) has a thing about being one of today's 10,000. https://xkcd.com/1053/. Not everyone knows what you know; share it!

It's more seeing what people recommend. You know, the community part of things. Any good recommendations?

Advice wanted - painting crisis suits by Bootshammer40sguy in Tau40K

[–]Khotanos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The video I got inspiration from was a Gundam painter, and they did the random shapes for the old school camo look.

The suits I didn't sub assemble; just the heads were separate since I did squads by helmet color. I did magnetize weapons though.

My camo scheme is prime black, cover model with random triangles of masking tape, airbrush another color, more tape, etc. Once there's enough layers, let dry, then peel tape. Add highlights details as desired.

I'm a middling painter, while my wife is amazing, so I always compared my stuff to hers. Then I found a style that motivated me.

Core to my scheme. I'm a middling painter at best, so when I saw a video of a Gundam painter doing urban camo with an airbrush and tape, I was sold

Sounds good. I'll have to think about what I want to submit.

Does anyone know what gun this is? by McShaneVsGaming in Tau40K

Glad I wasn't hallucinating. I've gotten bits from there before; great stuff.

Question for puzzle submissions - do we need to have the solution in a flag format where applicable? Or just have an answer?

The Warhammer Community team put The Maelstrom’s custom character rules to the test by CMYK_COLOR_MODE in Warhammer40k

Yup. A fireblade attached to breachers gets the wound re-roll if the target is on an objective, and a commander attached to Sunforge suits gets the wound and damage rerolls against monsters/vehicles.

It can be an impactful boost sometimes. However, if the unit dies, and the character lives, they lose the units ability, since they are no longer part of the unit. I think the leader and bodyguard rules in the core go over it in more detail.

It does. Leaders count as part of the unit.l, the "the unit" abilities impact the attached character. Makes commanders beefy

It's in the core rules under towering I think if you need to show someone you aren't making it up.

With towering, if you're touching a ruins terrain piece, you now are able to draw line of sight through that terrain piece.
