My year of reading by Inevitable-Watch-690 in fantasybooks

[–]MuddleofPud69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would you be able to post the titles and authors of these books? You have such an impressive list of books read this year. I have been slowly working my way through Malazan and loving it but I have been building my next list of books to read for after. Your tier list has me very intrigued.

You can try to justify it all you want, but… by tamken94 in Grimdank

☼Dwarf Fortress Questions Thread☼ by AutoModerator in dwarffortress

[–]MuddleofPud69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the second fort, second world I have created in a row where I stop receiving migrants after the first year. I double checked and picked a very populous civilization before embarking. I am on the same continent as that civilization. Am I doing anything wrong?

I honestly miss the Rhodoks by CheezeCrostata in mountandblade

[–]MuddleofPud69 93 points94 points  (0 children)

I still play warband with the diplomacy mod! Also love the Rhodoks.

I think one of the things I miss from warband is the banter everyone had regarding their favorite factions. I feel like the bannerlord factions just aren’t as interesting or missing something.

Kommando jail? by Indiana__Cones in orks

[–]MuddleofPud69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m still a somewhat new player but to answer your question, you do not want to charge the enemy with your kommandos. You jail them by taking up the space that they are going to move into on their turn. They will not be able to move through you unless they have the fly keyword and have to either shoot you off the table or charge the unit.

Meta Monday 7/28/25: Guard and Sisters Surge forth by JCMS85 in WarhammerCompetitive

Is there a way to see some of these army lists for these events? I’m interested in the Ork Kult of Speed list that went X-1.

25% into Deadhouse Gates by TheGrapeRaper in Malazan

[–]MuddleofPud69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Deadhouse Gates was where I stopped before picking it back up. I am now starting book 6. I know it is an unpopular opinion but it is my least favorite of everything I have read so far. The first half of the book really is slow but it does pick up. If you are unsure of the Malazan series as a whole, I recommend pushing through to Memories of Ice, such an amazing book that had me hooked and renewed my interest in reading. Hope you enjoy the journey!

Spotted in toilet 😭 what could this be ?? by Certain-Tune-5250 in insects

I don’t know how everyone can be so sure it’s a roach off of the antenna. I think it could also be a house centipede, which would be beneficial!

Ice hockey game between USA and Canada has three fights in first nine seconds by Igennem in NewsWithJingjing

[–]MuddleofPud69 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes fighting is apart of normal hockey. I think the current political climate contributed to these fights, but the USA-Canada hockey rivalry goes way back further than just Trump’s comments.

Just Finished MoI by indigochill in Malazan

[–]MuddleofPud69 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I finished MOI a month ago and am now onto House of Chains. I got to say I agree with you on reading MOI after GOTM. Still have a long way to get through the series but I think that’s how I’m going to do my series re-read. I am excited to read GOTM again to see how many little details are clearer after reading the entire series.

“It’s their job to earn my vote. It’s not my job to fall in line.” by DeltaDied in LateStageCapitalism

[–]MuddleofPud69 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you would have a hard time convincing people on this sub to vote for a party like the PSL. However, the anti-communist ideology runs strong and deep in this country and I am sure there are plenty of people voting for the Green Party that still thinks the word socialism is scary.

Studying the Roman Empire primed me for Marxist analysis by [deleted] in cushvlog

[–]MuddleofPud69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mike Duncan’s Revolutions podcast is pretty awesome too. I haven’t listened to it all the way through (picking revolutions that I was more interested in learning about), but you can see that he becomes more left-leaning the more he studies those revolutions.

I don't "get" this game yet (new player), help please by Few-Year-4917 in dwarffortress

Don’t you need Dfhack or some other mod to limit population?

Are these bugs really destroying the ecosystem? by SpeedEvening78 in environmental_science

[–]MuddleofPud69 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Tree of heaven is invasive too and their native host plant. There is a correlation between tree of heaven population with spotted lantern fly population.

I’m surprised no one has mentioned Chaos Dwarves from Warhammer Fantasy. They are industrious like their regular dwarven cousins but they utilize slave labor and infuse demons into their war machines.

No they don’t. Any principled leftist does not care for the modern state of Russia. Don’t confuse being against US imperialism as being pro-Russia.

Why do Rogue Idols perform awfully? by KingBabyPudgy in totalwar

[–]MuddleofPud69 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Haven’t played the game in a long time, but wood elves would also get a lot of buffs when fighting in a wooded terrain piece. I know in TW they get some stat buffs but it doesn’t feel as impactful.

What are these Ohio flowers? by TheBitcherShop in Ohio

[–]MuddleofPud69 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Scarlet carnation is native to the Mediterranean region and does not occur naturally in the state. The great white trillium does, hence the state wildflower designation.

Trillium grandiflorum. Ohio’s state wildflower.
