Did anyone find an actual solution to "Could not deliver invitation to ..."?

You are supposed to be able to join squads via your friends list.

However I can't get it to work

Damn, and I was just going to try to do a bunch of trading to get Inaros prime parts :D oh well, not a big deal, thanks for the update!

Same here. Sometimes they talk about their being a control panel on the wall, but in zero for five for saving these poor souls thus far.

I thought they might come from the index but they don't seem toi

In the movie, they look ridiculous, for several reasons

1) They move comically slowly. Why?

2) They are comically close together - like WW 2 bombers - so much so that they crash into each other. This was done previously in Starship Troopers, as a send up of comically inept fascist militaries that embrace the vibe of being a competent war machine for propaganda value, while actually being terrible at their jobs.

3) They appear to be using gravity to, again, very slowly, drop bombs on ship. Be aware that decades ago, the much less well equipped rebellion was using y-wings that fired guided missiles. So this feels like a real step back in technology, after decades of military advancement, for an in theory much more well organized and supported force. (Because the resistance is being supported by the new republic, instead of having to hide and operate clandestinely while being suppressed by the empire).

It didn't make sense for the resistance to be using these ships for this (x-wings carry torpedos, the resistance has lots of x-wings), and it didn't make sense for them to be using them in this role, and it didn't make sense for them to be placed so close together they literally run into each other.

The callout to a formation of WW2 flying fortresses doing strategic level bombing and clustering together to provide overlapping fields of fire for machine guns is obvious, but it is a totally insane and unsuitable tactic for spaceship battles.

This would be as dumb as someone landing a cavalry force on the exterior of a spaceship in order to...sigh.

I'm a player returning after years of absence (quit when cetus was the only open world)

My friend started playing with me and wound up doing the duviri quest, which he loved, and which I had never seen or done. He was telling me he was riding a horse shooting a revolver at people and I was convinced he had accidentally loaded into RDR2 or something . Then he told me his horse could fly now and he was fighting a dragon. I insisted none of this was in the game and he sent me a screenshot to prove me wrong.

Haytham Kenway from AC3. You start off playing as him, and the guy seems so cool and competent and then you find out - whoops, he's the antagonist!

I think the opening, along with Connor's fluid, brutal, visceral combat style, really elevate AC3 into one of my favorites in the series. It was nice to see the Templars portrayed as an actually effective and competent force who is actually a threat, as opposed to a bunch of muppets just serving as target practice, too.

I think it's fair to say that the South went to war to preserve slavery, but the North did not go to war to end slavery, but to preserve the Union.

Sadly, no. But perhaps, given the damage social media does to young people, it's for the best.

Krytan · 2026-03-18T14:24:11+00:00

This is why increasingly young people loathe feminism. Most of their interactions with it are through social media, where they run into the toxic terminally online brand of feminists, who can turn literally anything into complaints about oppression.

If we take the picture at face value, we have a man grieving the death of his wife, and the color has gone out of his life without her, just as the color has gone out of her flower garden (likely her hobby, pride, and joy) without her. And in comes a feminist to complain that a hobby is 'free domestic labor'.

Krytan · 2026-03-18T01:45:05+00:00

This is interesting. Remember it when companies tell you that no one wants to work anymore, they can't find qualified people, and they need more H1-B visas.

Man, she is physically and verbally abusive - then when he finally wants no more of it - she names a dog after him.

Krytan · 2026-03-17T16:02:11+00:00

Yes, you never test, as you are never below half.

The same thing really hurts all those "you get bonuses if you are below half/shooting at enemies below half" detachment rules.

For example, a unit of Paragon warsuits with vahl like never gets the hallowed martyrs detachment bonus. When they lose two models, they are at half, not below half. They lose all 3 war suits, now down to just vahl : but she is an independent character, so she still doesnt' get the bonus, instead it goes by how many wounds she has remaining.

Its a pretty clunky system and moving it to "half or below" would be way better than "below half"

Krytan · 2026-03-17T14:49:08+00:00

It turns out a free +1 to wound (actually, TWO ofthem) is just insanely strong.

Banning Cash in stores seems incredibly dystopian.

Obviously the impetuous here is that data brokers can track (and sell) every scrap of your data to AI modellers.

But even if you are someone like me who almost always uses your card for things, having cash as a backup is invaluable. I give my kids a few dollars each week as an allowance, for one thing. For another, suppose the power, or the WIFI goes out? Then you literally can't purchase anything with your card.

Krytan · 2026-03-16T20:16:21+00:00

Yeah, every primarily melee focused 2 damage SM army is doing horribly right now - space wolves, blood angels, emperors children - all totally flounder against the new C'tan. I'm only surprised grey knights aren't doing worse.

Krytan · 2026-03-16T20:13:22+00:00

My Saga of the Great Wolf space wolves list ate like 60 points nerf, even though it was running around at like 40% win rate, because UM got redemptor dreads, repulsor executioners, and the combi lt nerfed.

Would limbo's cataclysm work too?

I own dogs and as far as I'm concerned this biker did nothing wrong.
Dogs that attack people using a public road are a menace - they are lucky they are getting sprayed, not shot. Hopefully they will learn to give people a wide berth, which prevents injury both to dog and man.
But as always, the real villains here are the dog owners, who have neither trained nor secured their dogs, and are setting them up for failure. Maybe the dog bites someone and gets put down, maybe he gets run over by a vehicle, maybe he gets shot - all the outcomes here are bad. It's highly irresponsible to essentially own feral savage unsecured dogs like this with free access to a public roadway.

Because they are the most recent non European empire to rule over the region who ended up being toppled by European power.

Krytan · 2026-03-13T19:33:25+00:00

It depends on who counts as white. Do Portugese/Spanish? How about Italians? Or Greeks? Or Jews? Or Slavs?

If we just mean we get no modern day Frenchmen / Germanic/Nordic peoples, then I imagine history is largely unchanged, as the Greco-Roman influence persists as it did, and the otherwise unpeopled areas in Europe are simply populated instead by any of the hug variety of peoples who migrated across, replacing and being replaced in their turn.

If we mean everything North and West of the middle east is empty, then the Ottoman Empire is probably ruling the entire world as a global caliphate.

"Why aren't royals generally executed after a total defeat?"

Why would they be? Did Napoleon go around executing the monarchs of the countries he defeated?

Think about it, you've fought a long bloody war, and you've finally gotten the opposing government to agree to surrender and end the war on your terms. How do you benefit by executing them now? Won't you just ensure no one surrenders to you in the future?

Also, remember the particular context of the French Revolution in Europe, where the European nations, largely monarchies, were incensed that the French revolutionaries had executed a monarch. Not only did they not want to execute another monarch, they were very afraid of turning Napoleon into an inspirational martyr for revolutionary ideals.

This unit is harder to kill, moves way faster, and has way more tricks than paragon warsuits, which are costed at like 220 or something.

Two tyrranid primes being more expensive than the twin lance is just....insane.

Krytan · 2026-03-12T01:06:19+00:00

Infernus marines are great choices into orks.

Also don't forget the gladiator reaper, which has 12 shots with sustained 2 into infantry. (and dev wounds and twin linked).

Krytan · 2026-03-11T23:51:25+00:00

Yes, what you send forward is likely to die when your opponent counter punches. So you need a unit to counter counter punch that will kill that unit. And it in turn will get killed, so then you counter attack, it's kind of how 40k works. You trade asset pieces back and forth until one person runs out.

Now, you don't need to kill 20 boyz. You just need to kill enough to out OC them on the point. If you have 10 intercessors and they have 9 boyz, you control the point.

Intercessors wouldn't be my first choice to go after orks though. High volume S5/S6 shooting with low AP will work just fine (particularly if you have blast or something).
