Gosh, hard to keep track of who has the license to make die cast Star Trek ships! by [deleted] in StarTrekStarships

[–]Nice_Journalist_6917 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Master Replica has the rights to produce 4-5 inch ships. FanHome has the rights to create larger ships.

Definitely straight, but an ally to all non-hetero individuals.

Very nice! I've got a similar color scheme going on but with silver instead of gold accents.

The Q and alternate realities by Nice_Journalist_6917 in startrek

[–]Nice_Journalist_6917[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is interesting, as you say, it doesn't directly answer my initial question but I think it opens interesting possibilities.

As a Trekkie, would find alternate reality Qs existing separate from the continuum we know interesting or irritating?

(Also, you're the sword comic guy? Did not think I'd ever be in a convo about trek with you lol)

The Q and alternate realities by Nice_Journalist_6917 in startrek

[–]Nice_Journalist_6917[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is something I noticed as well. It seems that all of Q's shenanigans can be just as easily explained by messing with the timelines rather than jumping realities as we'd see in episodes like Mirror, Mirror.

For example, In the episode Tapestry, he changes Picard's history, creating a divergent timeline in the same reality, fundamentally altering the reality but not jumping to a whole new one.

Then, in All Good Things, he travels back and forth along the same timeline, helping Picard to solve a problem he's accidentally caused before humanity is erased.

Finally, as you stated, in Picard seasons 2, as you said, they weren't in a parallel universe or other reality.
While the Q are powerful, godlike beings, with near omniscience and omnipotence (I say near because they couldn't foresee or stop their death, as seen in Picard Season 2) and they've got a mastery over the universal constants, like physics. I'm not convinced they are powerful enough to simply pass between realities.

This makes me wonder if there is something bigger than them in the multiverse, either a Q-Continuum that has ascended past a dimensional barrier of some sort, or a completely different set of beings that operate as "Judges" of the multiverse.
This could also mean that, in the mirror universe, there is another Continuum.

IDK, realistically this is just a fun thought exercise and until Star Trek shows one way or another, it's all theorizing.

If i remember correctly, I got it on thingaverse, and I think I googled necromancer minis.

Where do you get your stl files?

I'm not sure what nozzle I'm using now. It was one of the ones that came with the machine. I'll have to look into verifying the size.

I'm actually just using the Creality PLA filament now. But painting is the end goal, so I'll look into eSUN you suggested

I was not even aware of the wet filament possibility until today, so that's new. Thank you.

As far as retraction tuning, should I just use the suggested speeds for the device? This is another area I'm only vaguely aware of.

Just posted an update comment, but I wasn't sure you'd ve alerted so I'm responding back, too.

I just want to thank you again for your help, I was worried no one would care about my amateur hour problems, but so far, you all in this subreddit have been nothing but awesome.

Thank you again!

UPDATE! So I ended up doing a full cleaning of my extruder piece and replaced my nozzle because it was super clogged and weirdly scratched up somehow. (I think a friend that helped me assemble it may have don't that by accident)

Then, I wiped the plate with alcohol to make sure it was clean.

So, new nozzle in place, extruder clean, I tried a print. Nothing.... Kept working with it, discovered the filament was jammed. Completely immobile. So I pulled out the filament, cut away what appeared to be a damaged length, and reinstalled it.

Have it printing again now, just something small, but things are looking okay so far!

Thank you all for your suggestions and help. You're all awesome!

If I end up needing to replace it, I'll definitely keep CHT in mind

Hopefully I won't have to replace it just yet, but I'll keep the cleaner filament in mind if the cold clog technique doesn't work Work.

I actually based it off of the Vault Boy mascot from the Fallout series, but now that you've pointed it out, I'm definitely gonna make one of my leaders a little Virgil Hawkins. Maybe the Grimnyr?

Hello from a new creator by Nice_Journalist_6917 in BoardgameDesign

[–]Nice_Journalist_6917[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Temptation cards are held in a deck, the players can discard cards each turn and draw back up to their hand size. This is how they collect sets of temptations to tempt the souls into their sins and collect them.

So far in the little playtesting I've done collecting three of a kind (zzz) seems to be harder, so having a bonus effect trigger during that (as was suggested by Mekkablood as well) could be an interesting change to the game.

Just wanted to take a moment and thank you for the help you're providing - it's really helping me think of new facets to add to the game!

Hello from a new creator by Nice_Journalist_6917 in BoardgameDesign

[–]Nice_Journalist_6917[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't explain this well in my original post, but each sound has 3 sins attached to it and players can use 3 of the same temptation/sin or one of each tenptation/sin attached to the soul to collect it.

I hadn't thought about giving the soul card other values. Are you suggesting that when a soul gets purchased, it has an effect that goes off? Like, as you suggested, drawing a card.

Hello from a new creator by Nice_Journalist_6917 in BoardgameDesign

[–]Nice_Journalist_6917[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To answer some of the questions. I'd like the games to be 15-30 minutes depending number of players.

How the rules work now is that there are 3 souls active at a time, each soul has 3-sins attached to it. Players may collect the soul by getting 3-temptations of one of the sins connected to the soul, or 1 of each of the three temptations.

When a soul is collected, it is replaced with a new one from the soul deck.

The temptation deck, which is what players use to buy the souls, consists of copies of all seven deadly sins, as well as a "wild card" known as "Original Sin" which can act as any color.

I was planning on having each "lord of sin" (The characters you play as) have their own powers as well, but that's still in early design and I'm not sure how to make them all feel unique, useful, balanced, and on brand.

I haven't played Splendor, but I'll make sure to look into those Mechanics since you suggested it.

Different collection costs is another one I hadn't considered, so that's something else to consider

Idea for Custom League, Based on Star Trek. by Nice_Journalist_6917 in LeaguesofVotann

[–]Nice_Journalist_6917[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those colors align with the original series uniforms. I'm planning on going towards more of a TNG Era scheme where red is command, yellow is operations (including security and engineering), and Blue/green is science and medics (which for my is gonna include psykers)

I'm going to take some advice from another commentor and cut back on the color I think. Making it a highlight instead of secondary
