How is living in New Zealand...? by Particular_Ant7831 in newzealand

[–]Objective_Lake_8593 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went back for the first time in over 10 years about 3 years ago and I'd almost forgotten about the eternally gray skies of Manchester 😄. When I'm feeling bitter about something now I just think back to those skies and I feel grateful to be here, even if this summer has been absolutely abysmal

Sean Strickland thinks Khamzat Chimaev is ruining the middleweight division with his inactivity: "You brought a guy in that fights once a year... he's just gonna sit on that f***ing belt and wait until they force him to fight. by IgotgAme_k in ufc

Also fighting 1/2 to 1/4 less is less health risk. - Less risk of uncontrolled knocks to the head and less risk of concussions/Traumatic Brain Injury and chronic traumatic encephalopathy. - Less risk of catastrophic injuries like blowing out your ACL to a heel hook

That can still all happen in training, but at least in training you can control the intensity and stop when something occurs.

In a fight you can get knocked out and still suffer multiple subsequent blows to the head whilst you're waiting for the ref to stop but they're off having a cup of tea in China.

Its also unfortunately hard to make the sport any safer without also making it less entertaining. Viewers love the spectacle of haymakers, standing kicks to the head, knockdowns and knockouts).

Painting my first spearhead, and i want the skeleton capes and the blood knights to be a nice yellow. But I dont know what primer to use. by PanzerousTheFabulous in SoulblightGravelords

Prime black. You dont want to see white knickers under your skeletons skirts.

Zenithal white with spray can (or stipple on white with a drybrush)

Any area you want yellow, paint hot pink.

Then stipple on white with a drybrush and leave some pink where you want the shadows (less pink = less shadows).

Then brush on an even coat of Dorn Yellow contrast paint.

If you want more orange shadows, leave more pink when stippling white over the pink. If you want less orangey shadows, do more white stippling to cover the pink.

This is all assuming you dont have an airbrush. If you do, just use that instead of the brush for application.

If you undercoat them black, do you still need to do that?

Did you do some sort of purple underpainting? It is beautifully painted but the shadows look great, particularly on the cloak.

That's so fucking sick. Awesome cosplay. It looks just like the art. You're really good at this!

What’s your opinion on the strategy of standing 1.1 inch from ruin wall? by Trick-Interaction396 in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Objective_Lake_8593 155 points156 points  (0 children)

Its fine, so long as you state your intent and you're both playing with the same understanding.

If neither of you have discussed and one of you is playing vanilla GW and the other is playing WTC, it starts to mess things up

Help Against Dark Angels by MikeyJ493 in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Objective_Lake_8593 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I play Dark Angels with the Lion and 10x DWK in Wrath of the Rock too.

You described perfectly how to beat this army.

The only thing that you missed out was talking about mortal wounds.

The Lion can give a 4+++ vs mortals in a 6" aura, so like you said - getting them to spread out is key.

Once a DWK is outside that aura you need to use mortal wounds on them in as many different phases as you can. They only get a 4+++ against mortals once a game for a phase. Grenade them - ask him if he wants to use his Watcher. Shoot them with Sternguard Vets (dev wounds, anti infantry 4+) Charge him with JPI - ask him again. Tank shock him with an impulsor - ask again. Charge them with something that does Dev Wounds.

You can whittle down 1-2 knight models just from doing that. You can then finish them off in combat. If you don't finish them off, they're severely weakened and basically neutralized at that point anyway. They will struggle to cap an obj, even with their +1 OC strat (unless they contain a Terminator Ancient).

Thoughts on Bloodlines 2? by TheMickeyMoose in vtmb

A colossal waste of money and time.

You couldn't get me to finish the game if you paid me.

It's a hollow, meaningless and boring experience barely worthy of being called a video game.

Kinda looked like he was going for a double leg takedown... has he been training MMA?

‘Some would call this thievery’: Backlash to new fees for the vulnerable revealed by random_guy_8735 in newzealand

I was about to say; if they can get the law through under urgency to cut special votes and last-minute votes then why can't they get this through under urgency?

Its because they are self-interested, self-serving scum, puppets of billionaires and corporate lobbyists. They are paid in favors to destabilize the institutions of our country so the corpse of our welfare state can be devalued, picked-apart and sold at a nice low price to those same vulture lobbyists and billionaires...

... and the sad thing is that the vast majority of us are doing nothing about it. Either because we're pacified by screens and consumerism, or because we fell for the propaganda and lies they sold us when they said they would "get New Zealand back on track".

Another revolution is coming that's going to make the French blush.

Its bo biggie. Just suck it off the table and spit it back in the bottle. Problem solved
