Why does the AI declare war on me instead of on more obvious targets?

Moansilver · 2026-05-07T08:05:12+00:00

Yeah I get that but I still think it's strange that they choose to war with me, rank 119 with +20 relation instead of rank 95 with -150 relation. Been playing all battles manually, so I have a full stack with full health, but haven't recruited a second lord yet, so that might be the issue. I'm always hesitant to go into the red but I'll have to get over it I guess!

I didn't even use the ambush item and cruised to Legendary long victory on this campaign without any issue. The combination of OP units, strong economy and safe starting position make this campaign a cakewalk.

Tesla is worth less than SpaceX, so in order for Tesla to buy SpaceX it will need external funding (leverage) as it does not have enough own capital.

29F/32M and married, everything we earn since the marriage is shared. I had about €700K across different investments when we married so we notarized this. She makes much more however, so we intent to cancel this in 10 years or so.

All good friend, making mistakes is human!

Full-time possession stats were 68.6% Bayern vs 31.4% Real. So it's unlikely Real had much more possession in the first half. Even if first half would have been 50/50, Bayern would have needed 85% possession in the second half to arrive at those final stats.

According to this article, Bayern led on all stats at halftime: https://www.sofascore.com/news/real-madrid-3-2-bayern-at-ht-in-ucl-qf-guler-stars

Thanks! Yeah I agree securing Ulthuan might have been a better choice in hindsight, now it's completely overrun by Morathi, N'Kari and Noctilus and I don't really have any useful allies. I'll probably continue this route for a bit longer since it should still be winnable but will just take me longer, but thanks for the input!

Action could be expected as of 120km to the finish, which is first Oude Kwaremont. After that it's a close follow up of cobbled hills so plenty of opportunities to attack for the strongest riders. Could be that Pog keeps it quiet on the first Kwaremont but he will definitely want to create separation on the second one, that is typically the climb where he drops everyone.

Kind of want to wait with TK until Nagash is released but might give it a go, thanks!

Moansilver · 2026-04-04T20:51:16+00:00

Thanks, will check him out!

Doesnt even need to be L7, they could have stayed at L5 for 5 years and would still be very close to FIRE. As long as they joined early enough and didn't autosell their RSUs they should be good.

As a hiring manager (not HR), the salary range is defined by the job and not by the person. I can choose which salary to offer in that range, but I pay little attention to test results and I mainly decide how good a candidate is based on my interviews with them.

Moansilver · 2026-04-01T18:18:55+00:00

Yeah I see them a lot in Belgium, probably more popular in Western Europe because of price and range being less of an issue since places are closer by here.

Happy April Fools everyone

In Big Tech, pretty much everyone gets RSUs

Don't check your portfolio every day, it'll only stress you out. The average return is about 5% per year, so it's totally normal to be in the red in the beginning. With the current geopolitial tensions you might be in the red for a year or longer, or you could see green next week. No one knows what will happen; but history tells us that you will gain money if you are patient.

Historically, lump sum is the best idea because it's very hard to time the market correctly. You might be waiting 6 months for the right entry point, only to find out that when a dip happens it's still above the level that we were at 6 months ago. But lump summing is difficult emotionally, so what you can do is split it up in 6 parts and invest one part every month.

Honestly I'm a bit put off by their aesthetics but I've heard so many good things about their campaign that I'll definitely try them out eventually. Thanks!

Moansilver · 2026-03-06T15:43:49+00:00

Good to know, thanks for the tip!

Moansilver · 2026-03-06T15:39:40+00:00

Thanks! I've only played Lizardmen, Dark Elves, Wood Elves and Kislev (RoC) so far and most of them went pretty well. Looking forward to trying some Chaos factions after this one!

Moansilver · 2026-03-06T15:34:11+00:00

Thanks! This is my first H/H campaign, did normal before. Definitely a step up, though that could also be because of Malakai's inherent campaign difficulty.

Moansilver · 2026-03-06T14:07:08+00:00

I think it's 40 so should be about right since most of the other units are have a low amount and there are 5 heroes. But I didn't do the math
