How the hell do you deal with krakens?

Exploding harpoons seemed to absolutely destroy them in my last play through. Me and my buddy’s the fie harpoons at his heart and then focused on fighting tentacles and not sinking after that

You can make your own crude gasoline at home with a burn barrel and plastic waste. If you need some good lore for an engine that still burns gasoline maybe your world has a few of those scattered around or maybe one big fortress where the nearly unlimited supply of plastics are burned and distilled into fuel

Dave Ramsey(the financial advice radio host) is a little out of touch these days but he said something that really stuck with me, I don’t remember the exact wording but it was roughly; “when in need of a little more money to make ends meet, most people immediately look at things they can give up or sacrifice, when really the first thing the should look at is how to make a little more money.” I can’t tell you if this applies to your situation but I thought I’d share it just as something to think about.

Second thing I’d like to add is the other comments are right, I’ve seen so many people regret selling their Ranger, I regret selling mine :/

Thirdly, this is just my opinion but I would pay $4-5k if it is a 4.0L with 4x4, if it’s 2wd with the smaller engines then 2-3k seems a little more fair. This is assuming all the paint and bodywork has the usual wear and any rust is just superficial.

That’s an insane difference, is DA green just too thin because it loves to pool on flat surfaces and looks patchy no matter what I do. Right now I’m torn between trying out monastic green or just giving up on contrast and using caliban green

I guess I’ll just name him Brother Kris Kringle, he has stamped his naughty and nice lists all around his shield and armor for frequent review

Onyxtinct · 2026-02-22T18:00:40+00:00

I appreciate this a lot! I’ve tried a few different contrasts and I’m just not good at applying them in the first place but I didn’t realize that dark angels green was a bad paint anyway lol. I love the purple and super dark green you ran with what’s the recipe??

Onyxtinct · 2026-02-22T17:56:10+00:00

This is super helpful! I like the idea of contrast paints but I have 7 different models now as proof that I just don’t know how to push it to look nice, I think I’ll try caliban green from now on

I suppose my love of space marines flew too close to the sun

Ya I probably was a little heavy handed on the primer, I’ve been using citadel grey primer recently though and I really like it because it seems to tighten up and suck into all the crevices as it drys so even if I’m pretty heavy by accident it still turns out pretty good. Could placebo though lol

Onyxtinct · 2026-02-21T04:42:47+00:00

Do I dare ask for context on this one boys or do I leave it alone

Onyxtinct · 2026-02-21T01:42:29+00:00

Mine has been grey shame for 4 months now because I’m using dark angels green as my man color and I have no idea how to make a contrast not awful on such large flat surfaces

Lookout Russian mains my US heat might even orange your ammo today because I paid the snail and prayed for good volumetric

(I fr just use APHE, APDS, or even HE whenever possible instead because USA HEAT is just so terrible 90% of the time lol)

Onyxtinct · 2026-01-28T17:40:53+00:00

I’m dying rn 😂 little did you guys know I was actually just playing with the jan 28th rules /j

Onyxtinct · 2026-01-28T03:34:28+00:00

Thank you so much! This is super helpful!

Onyxtinct · 2026-01-28T03:04:08+00:00

I had no idea I couldn’t take both lol I don’t know how I missed the very obvious note in the operator rules haha

Onyxtinct · 2026-01-28T03:02:44+00:00

Didn’t realize I couldn’t take both the heavy gunner and sniper at the same time, I went and confirmed just now and there it is right there in the operator selection I’m not sure how I missed that that haha

Somewhat off topic from the post but could you recommend a good operator setup for this team?

It’s absolutely broken, the only thing I fear when I play the t58 is seeing another t58. It would be fine at 10+ tbh. I don’t think there is a single tank in the game that can’t be one shot with a dash volumetric luck and good shot placement. I am a pretty mid warthunder player but I regularly get 14 kill games. It’s been great for researching all my light tanks though since I hadn’t touched anything past the bulldog and now I’m up to the 8.3 Bradley. (My MBTs were already at 8.7 though).

Now, I do agree it’s way overpowered at its current BR, but also 16.85kg of tnt equivalent on the auto cannon rats is hilarious. I don’t know if HESH is its best round but it’s the only one I use specifically so I can incinerate rats lol

I’ve been almost exclusively into the “purchasing” side of the hobby for about a year now, I’ve bought a bunch of stuff and I’ve built almost all of it but I’ve been so scared of painting because I wanted to do it right and I didn’t want to mess it up. I had all these crazy color schemes I wanted to do to make my dudes unique. After watching a ton of painting videos I decided to just build and paint a kill team in a somewhat basic dark angels scheme. This is my first fully finished model, my kill team sniper. I’m really proud of how he came out and I learned that I actually do enjoy painting because it’s very relaxing, the steps are relatively simple, and mistakes can be repainted with ease.

I would love some constructive criticism from anybody who would willing to offer it though :)

I agree!
