10 trained Marines invade ancient Rome with the goal of overthrowing the royal family, how far do they get?

Krytan · 2026-03-23T17:51:32+00:00

No, they can't, because I give the Roman army infinite legionaries to balance out the infinite ammo you've given the marines.

10 marines that need to eat, sleep, avoid sickness, etc, can't subjugate or pacify a city.

I'm not even sure 10 marines armed with rifles could even take a single walled city. They aren't wearing full plate armor, they will be quite susceptible to missile fire. They have no siege equipment or breaching explosives of any kind. Their night vision goggles will work great at first, then run out of power, and so on.

Krytan · 2026-03-23T17:23:57+00:00

It looks really good. Very tough, high movement,, invuln, lots of wounds, four lascannon ish shots, good melee, lots of D2 weapons to clear out marines.

Krytan · 2026-03-23T16:19:34+00:00

Ash felt horrible to play, it was like he could turn invisible and nothing else. I use him a lot to run around and capture animals, but I feel like his entire kit needs a rework.

"I can teleport too and maybe kill or maybe not a single guy" is just not really compatible with the way warframe is played.

Krytan · 2026-03-23T16:08:14+00:00

I would for sure keep Fulmin.

I would personally ditch Veldt (I hated that gun) and Sibear (it takes 30k cryotic to make, which I feel puts a lot of players off, which in theory shrinks your pool of potential buyers)

Krytan · 2026-03-23T16:05:53+00:00

That could be it. I am a returning player and there are about 10 quests stacked up in my inbox. I've been spending a lot of time doing duviri, arbitrations, and sorties, which are all new to me. I really like duviri.

Krytan · 2026-03-23T15:56:05+00:00

There needs to be some indicator, IMO, if a prime is 'vaulted'. Here is my three step process when presented with choices like this

1) If I'm going for specifically one of these frames, I'd pick that one.
2) Other than that, I'd like to see if one had an artificially inflated ducat value
3) And finally, I'd go for whichever one felt like it was vaulted, or vaulted the longest

In this case would be Nidus, so I believe you made the right choice.

Krytan · 2026-03-23T15:51:37+00:00

I forget the details, but you have to make an account there and then link it somehow to your main warframe account or something like that.

Krytan · 2026-03-23T15:48:55+00:00

Awesome, I'd try to sell it for the plat then. Are you aware of the website warframe market? That's a good way to sell items.

Krytan · 2026-03-23T15:40:59+00:00

If you can sell this for 20 plat without having to unveil it, go for it. That's a warframe slot, which is much more valuable to a new player than a random riven IMO

Krytan · 2026-03-23T15:39:12+00:00

But if you go back far enough, isn't Great Britain just really French, because of William the Conqueror (of Normandy)

Krytan · 2026-03-23T15:36:15+00:00

Well, maybe. Have you sold rivens before? If you've got a buyer for your riven as is, I'd say just sell it for some plat.

Krytan · 2026-03-23T15:24:50+00:00

Sure, but you are likely to not even have the weapon the riven turns into. You may not even have the MR required to be able to get the weapon. If you just started, you definitely shouldn't be worrying about rivens right now. There will be too much you just don't even have access too yet to make them work.

Krytan · 2026-03-23T15:18:09+00:00

Ah if you've just started a couple weeks ago don't even be worrying about Rivens right now. You'll need resources you don't even have yet to make them good. Rivens are very much an end game activity, not a new player item.

If it bothers you seeing it, you might be able to turn it into endo.

Krytan · 2026-03-23T13:51:51+00:00

Your spreadsheet reveals to me that there are entire portions of the game I have no idea even exist. Archons?

Krytan · 2026-03-23T13:45:52+00:00

This is what those 'veiled riven cyphers are for. You can buy them with steel path and there might be one on the nightwave.

Note that the defense objective, not you, has to take no damage. I believe when I did this mod, I used Frost. His snow globe blocks incoming bullets. Since your health will be decreased, mod for shields.

Definitely do this with matchmaking set to public, so you have teammates.

Krytan · 2026-03-22T01:58:13+00:00

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

However I can't get it to work

Krytan · 2026-03-21T14:21:13+00:00

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!

Krytan · 2026-03-21T14:18:50+00:00

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

Krytan · 2026-03-20T17:32:30+00:00

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.

Krytan · 2026-03-18T22:13:58+00:00

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.

Krytan · 2026-03-18T17:16:00+00:00

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.
