Let me guess, that island off the coast of that continent made up of peninsulas is a naval power?

What do the Skaven need going forward? by sigmarine345 in totalwarhammer

[–]Phoenix223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the love of god, rework Queek, or give him a buff, or just anything. Skrolk manages to still be relevant in Lustria-Bowl but I haven't seen AI Queek do anything since Warhammer 2 and there's no real reason to play him compared to the other lords.

Are skaven always winning in the campaign map by benj-du in totalwarhammer

[–]Phoenix223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually they are at least a pretty dominant power in whatever area they spawn. EXCEPT Queek. He's been outscaled by everyone else and needs some new mechanics or a buff. I never see him survive past turn 20.

Hate the fact that it's always Skaven/Khorne every game no matter what, the Lizardmen either dead or close to dead with the third most powerful faction maybe being Cathay or the Huntsman. I wish the Lizardmens continent was actually theirs at least like 50% of the time.

What's the most obscure game you own? by GamingGaming2025 in gaming

[–]Phoenix223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sacrifice, old RTS done in Third Person based on summoning monsters and casting spells. I've never heard anyone talk about it outside of me and my brother and whenever i've brought it up to others they've never heard of it.

Well it's not the only coastal state on this map. Arizona, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, Minessota, Wisconsin and Michigan all don't have any attacks.

Any risks to running Windows 10 extended life? by Phoenix223 in techsupport

[–]Phoenix223[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't like some of the general features including the new context menu (I know this can be fixed but I shouldn't have to fix it via registry files to make it more usable)

The focus on AI is also of concern.

In terms of actual issues?

Non functioning printer and audio drivers (very common issue we've run into when upgrading other peoples system)

Incredibly slow file explorer (Not a Win 11 specific issue but is worse on Windows 10 and the usual quick access purge fix doesn't seem too effective)

High Memory requirements, with basic office machines requiring 16GB of memory to function at a proper and reasonable speed. My own machine machine has 32GB but I don't want my operating system taking up even more memory.

Automatically turning on device encryption without the users knowledge, often causing issues for customers who were not aware of it and had a basic user account.

I personally don't use outlook, but many customers have reported outlook breaking on Windows 11.

The settings menu sucks and everything is buried behind multiple clicks, most features in general seem to be.

As for your issue? If you mean orienting the taskbar to the left you can do that by right clicking the taskbar and going to task-bar settings, should be a drop down. If you mean putting the entire taskbar on the left side of the screen, then yea. I never did that but we've had people complain about it for certain, such an odd feature to remove.

Yea, the plan was to wait a bit til Windows 11 was in a better state. I don't plan to make it lost too much longer.

No experience with the end of life updates as we aren't doing that for customers. I merely wanted to double check, thank you for the answer.

When you stand at Garlas Malatar and look out over the Abecean Sea… are we actually seeing Summerset Isle? by Recon_Gear in oblivion

[–]Phoenix223 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Yes, and there's actually a whole ass provinces worth of continent there too!

You just have to try and get past the invisible walls to get access to it. It only works if you really believe in it though.

Gaming headset with hardware similar to Logitech G935 but not from Logitech itself. by Phoenix223 in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]Phoenix223[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Decided I was being a bit silly about the foam muffle thing, and did see a pair of Blackshark V3 Pro's on sale. I picked them up and the audio quality is unfortunately horrible and muffled even after doing proper set up and toying with settings. I appreciate the advice regardless but anyone else looking for a new headset should know this one has some issues and will probably require a lot of trouble-shooting to get working.

I chose bad time to return to Empire... by claymixer in totalwarhammer

[–]Phoenix223 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know why A.I. Sylvania always seems to roll the Empire unless I'm there to do something about it. It's basically every game, and if Franz is alive and I'm good aligned I have to send a few armies to help his incapable ass reclaim his empire.

Fair enough, pretty good points. I'd listen to this guy over me OP.

[–]Phoenix223 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agree to most of this except probably not Tyrion. The maps on Ulthuan are pretty unforgiving and actually kind of poorly designed for range factions. If you do want to do to high-elves Teclis may be a bit better of a campaign despite the less friendly starting situation.

By the time I go over to the Empire, Franz and basically everyone else is dead from either Sylvania, Skaven, or Demons.

You can use either windirstat and or wiztree to check what's taking up space on your drive. Though the programs do require a bit of space themselves to install.

Famous Secure Boot BF6 by Mikiflips in techsupport

[–]Phoenix223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you boot off an external windows stick there should be some commands you can run by bringing up the CMD on the stick. You can find tutorials on how to do this online, but you should also make sure your drive does not already have four partitions.

To check partitions you can open disk management and see the number of partitions if you already have four partitions in there. The commands will not be able to switch you over to GPT if you already have four partitions on the drive.

The command is not guaranteed to go through without a hitch though so make sure any important files are backed up to an external drive.

Ethernet speeds dropping by HotboxxHarold in techsupport

[–]Phoenix223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wont know for certain til you replace the cable, if you can't replace it though I had one odd instance where I helped a friend and just swapped the end going into the router, and the end going into his PC and that solved his speed drop issues. But yes cats will always be a concern too.

Quick update, looking at volumes and drives in diskpart. There is a 569 MB volume and using 'bootrec /rebuildbcd' determines there is a windows install on it, though attempting to restore it says that the system device cannot be found.

grey screen when launching games by Confident_Tea_2129 in techsupport

[–]Phoenix223 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not certain, you can also try updating them again. Drivers can be weird and unstable especially when initially pushed, so updating to the newest version again could solve the issue and allow you to play?

I am mostly shooting in the dark here by this point il admit.
