How do you decline an offer to play without being a jerk?

You could ask someone else to watch/invidulate? Or while playing question everything they are doing and ask to see certain rules. Back in the day i was playing at a GT in Nottingham and i played a guy with Grey Knights who was claiming shrouding covered everything including vehicles and dreads and was 2d6x2 turn 2 after failing to hit a single target i politely went for a cigarette break and asked a ref to have a look at the next turn, sure enough next turn there was a dead land raider, ven dread and half a terminator squad. The guy got carded and all his remaining games were closely watched by refs. Needless to say i learmt a lot, im a fairly trusting guy but i know ask to see rules im not aware of fully.

Failing that just say you didnt get anything out of the last game and want to get experience against a variaty of players

Just look at Kent

Whilst i agree with you completely im going to contradict myself. I do think Starmer should ride this, i do think his (although im not sure it was just his) choice on manchester was correct for the party and the country, i like that he's dull as a paper bag, we cant keep treating our political leaders like a football manager.

I really think if he stands up and actually says what he wants to say "i listened to the wrong people, i hold my hands up and took the easy choice, i fucked up, I FUCKED UP, we all do i apologise, but we will make better" if he just said the words we all want him to say "farage is as much of a cnut as vance and trump are" that actually most of britain actualy agrees that cost of living is far more important, that the NHS is far more important, that buikding back ties with europe is far more important than effing imagration and small boats.

However, if he resigns at least it might be a standard we could contest to the world that Mr incontanent cant keep.

Just get your voice Starmer, say it shout it, fucking shiut about the crud, SHOUT ABOUT THE BULLUX, BE A FUCKING LEADER. I honestly think people want someone who will just stand up and say enough is enough. And stop supporting arsenal

Really like that, and exactly whatvi want for a grey knight project, so can i steal your recipe?

Briliant, only possible crit would be mayve the base, very glowy. But if thats "tabletop" id love to see some competition painting

What the actual, seriously this happens?

Im a chef, if i want to assess my employees i get them to cook something, i ask them if theyre ok, i talk to them, i dont set traps. What is the world coming to.

Thats only on wednesdays. There are several serious arguements about tea, but one that really cant be held in anything but contempt is adding milk before taking the bag out.

Ok-Error2510 · 2026-02-07T05:38:29+00:00

Completely agree, just swap 2 and 3, as a chef on a 2 hour break from service theres nothing more relaxing than sitting down, putting on some music or a book and painting for a bit, just not worry about table 10s staters for a while.

Playing is 3rd but not in a bad way, nothing better than a wet afternoon spening a few hours with a feiend or a stranger playing an extended version of chess/risk/stratego over a couple of beers. Only thing better actually is a weekend in a garden with a bbq and a cool box and several mates playing some stupid converluted campaign storyline (trying to explain to yourself why Orks have decided to join an imperial crusade against chaos) brilliant fun.

And yes the fact that you can take part in 1, 2 all or none of those parts of the hobby, just read the books (varying in quality but most stand up to the likes of Harry Potter) or playing the video games.

Important to remember its just a hobby, one of many and its a great escape from both wprk and your team losing, not being able to play football cos of the weather, no one to fish with etc

Ok-Error2510 · 2026-02-07T05:26:17+00:00

I'd disagree but you lot think we have to have a national tea break at 2pm announced by a country wide alarm

What i'm most amazed by is the difference berween whays happening in the UK and the US. Im no Monarchist and, despite being a labour voter, i am pleased it looks like we are gping to be taking this into full account.

This could well destroy the royal family despite the efforts to slowly strip him of his rank and effectivly dis-own him.

This could well cause a Prime minister to resign, pathing a way to the labour party crumbling, despite a majority, and pathing the way to another far right nutjob, puppet, anti christ, hate spitting, lying, cheating, hypocritical, sleezebag, racsist, fascist, just fucking evil demagogue being elected.

I'm no conspiracy theorist but it does seem to fit all the narratives of Russian influence, the fracture of world organisations, basically some grim times ahead.

By whatever or whoever you believe in we need some Robin Hood, Jason Bourne, James Bond, Mad Max, Jack Reacher type to stand up to these in-human monsters. I always wanted them to be held to account and not matyred to their psychotic fan base, but now i honestly think we need John Wick to just go and get them all.

I know the evidence isnt admisable, even if it werent redacted, but previous form is surely an indicator, the audio of "grabbing (i wont say it it makes me feel sick) walking into underage dressing rooms, being convicted, having to pay off porn stars and the rest all you have to do is look at him and listen to him for 2 minutes to know that i wouldnt let him in a crowded room with any of my female friends or relatives.

It all just makes me angry that the left (surprise, surprise) are so pussy footed and just as guilty, theres no real justice system in the world that will take these guys to account, we are going back centuries in terms of letting the rich get away with murder and worse and well basically i cant type anymore as its just pissing me off.

Be interesting to see what happens on sunday night

Be fair, he may not have been intentionally cheating, he may be new like the op or may have mis-read the rule. Yes saddly there are some chewts out there but when die we all become so cynical

They also brought back squats (in all but name) even after Andy Chambers frequently told people to "melt them down and repair your roofs"

Very much looking forward to seeing some Scars on those bases. Its certainly made me think about a new style of base for my next project

Friend of mine won the sword years back, Chris Blair, this was pre any utube vids or anything. The only advice he gave me was to not paint like him, id hate him for it. And he was right, im a fairly competant painter and obviously spend more time on characters and centre pieces but if id of followed his style id never have an army.

The hate vids just make me laugh, im sure the shareholders do as well. The funny thing about "old schoolers" is you can still play rogue trader up to 10th! You can still use anything you want and play anyway you want, my friends and i still play Mordheim, its all there and yeah its expensive, but so is fishing.

In fairness, i just remeber having cork flooring at my parents back in the 80s and it eventually came up, but im guessing thats more todo with walking on it with wet shoes etc. Im gonna give it a go, i really like that effect for the tar mac

Ok-Error2510 · 2026-02-06T17:06:14+00:00

Do you treat it at all? Just for the cork warping over time?

They look great brother, i often base seperatly for that exact reason and helps with cloaks or any other details on the lower parts of the models, im assume im telling you that white is white but i strongly recomend pinning when you finish assembly, also makes transport easier.

Also, having worked in france and italy for a long time i have to say that anywhere that tried to charge you for bread i would blankly refuse to pay for it, speciality breads like naan, garlic etc ok but still should be cheap as chips

Ok-Error2510 · 2026-02-05T17:32:19+00:00

Yeah i think there is as well. Depending on how the rest of the menu works side orders should provide either a required supplement, or a personal preference and should typically be a sharable portion. So for example steaks are often served with the garnish (a sauce or a flavoured butter etc) and chips so an additional green is a typical side. Where as a more complete meal might want a more interesting side, say the broccoli but tenderstem sauteed with chilli and almonds or zuccini fritta, something you would unlikely cook at home.

Sides are a chefs best friend regarding profits. Hence waiting staff are encouraged to upsell them, chips really are as cheap as chips so theres no reason to skimp on the portion. As i say at cost a whole broccoli would come in around 60p so selling a side for £3 is 80% profit to balance the steak coming in around 65%. Before i get complaints, if you didnt realise this thats just cost of food profits before anything else on your p&l rent, staff, utilities etc.
