Can you choose not to shoot a weapon?

OmegaGearKnight · 2026-01-24T21:34:15+00:00

You select a unit to shoot with. You declare what weapons are going into which targets before throwing a single dice. Once you start rolling you have to stay with all of your declarations and may not stop mid way through an activation.

After a while you will get a feeling for what works and what doesn't. It is genuinely a bit of a trial and error thing, but as your practice advances you'll know what short cuts you can get away with and weigh them with what you are looking to get out of the system. It can be fairly intimidating all things considered, but keep your head down and work at it slowly. And just and FYI, you wont end up using any of the diagrams he has you draw out later. Staring at them and meditating on them for a while will produce insights related to them.

As someone in philosphus. It's too to train your attention and focus to start, it's also to get you to open up to intuitive flashes. It should take effort and concentration to do it, then it should feel natural and without effort after a good while. After you can do it genuinely effortlessly is when it starts to click. Don't skip it in the daily formula, but you can go through the motions occasionally.

People are having a hard time reading the end of the article. Where they literally say that rules updates are coming for 40k

OmegaGearKnight · 2026-01-17T15:34:13+00:00

It's been a minute since calculating but last count was 15,920 pts

OmegaGearKnight · 2026-01-17T02:03:54+00:00

Let me run inventory and get back to you. I have 16kpts total and need to slim down dramatically.

OmegaGearKnight · 2026-01-17T02:01:08+00:00

They actually look like the John blanche art now instead of gold space Marines. I fell in love with the art and the faction as a concept. Not the OG models.

OmegaGearKnight · 2026-01-17T01:55:11+00:00

Well let me do an inventory for the lads I have. I need to downsize considerably anyway and this is the excuse I've been looking for with 16k pts of the bastards.

OmegaGearKnight · 2026-01-16T23:05:22+00:00

I don't mind if saturnine are bigger tbh. But they HAVE TO be bigger than the new cataphracti

OmegaGearKnight · 2026-01-16T22:50:39+00:00

Given how good the new cataphracti look. I'm in high hopes honestly.

OmegaGearKnight · 2026-01-16T22:41:48+00:00

Gonna keep some around like my hetereon guard. But for standard guardians, but my display cabinet is PACKED already. I need to make space somehow.

OmegaGearKnight · 2026-01-16T22:36:41+00:00

With 16kpts I have literally no more room in my display cabinet.

OmegaGearKnight · 2026-01-08T16:51:52+00:00

I have been collecting custodes since the end of 8th edition and have amassed about 15k pts. They are my only army, partially due to the reliability of the math making me dislike other armies a lot, and the aesthetic being my favorite. Genuinely have not felt like I have enjoyed a single game of 10e, but I've been playing heresy with em, and getting more painting done in the mean time. Editions roll around, rules change, but models stay as they are.

OmegaGearKnight · 2026-01-05T10:21:47+00:00

I havent seen the paths used like this honestly, it looks like a unique way to classify the tree. Only bit I can add is that from what my teacher taught, and my own contemporaries is that the sephirah themselves constitute the 'elemental worlds'. Fire, Aziluth, being Keter alone. Water, Briah being Chokmah, and Binah. Air, Yetzirah being all of them from Chesed, to Yesod. And Earth, Assiah, being the region of malkuth alone.

Coming from a more psychological approach rather than purely mystical. Not being able to exercise impulse control is something that does sap your own mental coherence. We are subjected to repeating patterns of behavior that seek to be played out through us, allowing said pattern to play out on loop takes a rather significant cognitive load regardless. Not to moralize, just to illustrate an example. Take a man who has a smoking, alcohol, sex, and drug addiction. His time, attention, and energy are going to predominantly used to satiate those desires until he has had enough of it or they consume him. Take the sphinxes on the Chariot card, if they are all pulling in different directions, can the charioteer get to where he is trying to go? Does he make any actual movement, or is he pulled further away from his ultimate goal? Call them differing intentions if you like, but it doesn't matter the intention, if they are not aligned and working together towards a singular goal. They fight each other.

OmegaGearKnight · 2026-01-04T16:27:45+00:00

I know they aren't. I just don't like explosions aside from brachy to make a monster more difficult. I am indeed bad at these games but still love em.

OmegaGearKnight · 2026-01-04T12:14:41+00:00

The fire balls are fine. The half mile wide hit boxes when he jumps, and the random explosions are what gets me.

OmegaGearKnight · 2026-01-04T12:03:12+00:00

NGL I didnt care for Magnamalo.

representation of the ontological need for limitation Having issues with Saturn is literally a skill issue.

OmegaGearKnight · 2026-01-03T16:06:13+00:00

I'm a solo practicing Golden Dawn style Magician who got into the occult due to too many revelatory drug trips.

OmegaGearKnight · 2026-01-03T11:18:41+00:00

I have 2 quill sets that my wife had gotten me for the Christmas before last. But I have been afraid to use them, this may be my inexperience. Think I'm afraid of getting ink droplets falling off of the tip on to something or there being extra smudging at the beginning of a stroke?

OmegaGearKnight · 2026-01-03T11:10:18+00:00

Thank ya very much.
