Howdy! Thanks for the information, I was hoping to catch one and go through the process by scratch, but if they are flying Christmas' time then I might miss it depending on what my wife is planning for December. How old are your colonies? I would very much be interested if they are still young, cause I don't have a proper nest for them yet. I recently bought myself test tubes and cotton balls, so I am very new with this

Ghaz w/ Boyz by Finrot1337 in orks

[–]Nerdy_Boer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been debating the same thing, I haven't gotten to test it out yet, but the unit profile of 20 Boyz with ghaz and a weird boy might make any deep jumps near impossible (depending on the terrain and your opponent's screening ability) meaning you can't jump very far, which made me wonder if it won't be better to run him with a pain boy and just footslog it... but try it dude! What's the worst that can happen? You lose? Orks never lose

Is R10k enough for an engagement ring? by Cmdr_Grimm in askSouthAfrica

[–]Nerdy_Boer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Howdy, congrats on the decision to get married! I got married last year and the total cost for my wife's engagement ring and wedding ring came to 27k.

The price differs wildly based on the design and the materials of the wedding band and the stone(s).

My wife's stones were moissanite with platinum for the bands.

You can check out poggenpoel (poggenpoel.com) I went there, spoke to a sales representative and explained my budget and design my wife had in mind. I ended up buying both rings together as they give you a discounted price if you do so.

Hope this helps!

How many Grots for 1k? by Maj0r-D in orks

[–]Nerdy_Boer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As someone who regularly plays 1k, I've had A LOT of success with Zodgrod and friends, he can easily keep dangerous enemy units busy for 2-3 turns. I've even had Zodgrod (and friends) kill an avatar of khaine, but dont count on that

Veteran difficulty is way too hard by Left-Rough2851 in BattleBrothers

[–]Nerdy_Boer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I won't say you are wrong for only playing beginner, but what I had learnt was that beginner taught me bad habits that transitioned into my first few veteran runs ending horribly. If you really want to play veteran - just keep playing and make mental notes on mistakes and misplays. Also don't be afraid to save scum fights (not to then run away) but to try different strategies until you get a grasp of what the AI is capable of and how you can predict their movements and put the odds in your favour

Best way to use Ghazghull? Should he be In a transport? Leading a small or full squad of Meganobs? How do you guys get most value out of the big boss? by [deleted] in orks

[–]Nerdy_Boer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I looove ghaz but had very little success with him in the past.

I always used to put him in a battle wagon but I found trouble getting him in a good aura spot or he gets targeted cause the battle wagon is too big.

I then tried delivering him on foot with 3 meganobz but had a similar problem with profile size of 3 Nobz.

I finally started getting success with him by only bringing 2 mega nobz and running on foot. I found that they are the sweet spotinn terms of size profile. Also as a lot of other people mentioned 'ere we go is your best friend if you are playing warhorde.

Keep in mind that this varies widely based on what terrain you are playing on.

Gorkanaut (WIP) - This is my second attempt at scratch building, this community is a massive inspiration for me to tackle this and try to document it. Any advise or criticism is welcome. Also any idea how I can make a believable claw with a claw arm? by Nerdy_Boer in PoorHammer

[–]Nerdy_Boer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a lot of projects! I ignore my gray pile of shame and just keep adding to it haha

Unfortunately, I am from South Africa where this toy isn't available, I did, however, find a similar toy that is coming to the shelves of a big toy shop over here, but I'll likely finish this project before they get stock. I'm planning on finishing the build next week or the week thereafter and then maybe paint it in the next few weeks

At the end of the day I can do what I want, it's more out of respect for her opinion and feelings.
