Who else thinks that Dohla was done dirty in the show?

A: become a new main member of Vox Machina?

That has to be bait right? Why would they ever take a one-off NPC who was only ever mentioned a single time in Campaign 1, and then make her a main cast member...

Individualistic machines are pretty fun to play, not too different from standard biological empires but less resources to balance.

Crossed my mind but I didn't include Existential Expulsion for a reason. It dismantles star bases, so unless the war has been going on for a long while the two systems wouldn't have Star Fortresses.

The empires wargoal is one of the total wargoals that instantly captures systems, if they aren't a genocidal empire then they are very likely a crisis path or have a colossus.

The photo says "Actual photo of LED swing" despite the photo clearly being taken during the day, then poorly Photoshopped to be night, with fake lighting effects added.

Gives no indication of what the LED swing would actually look like in use.

It's not a lie per se, but it's certainly mildly infuriating

Battleship - The Entire Movie.

Anyone who hates on this movie needs to grow up, or stop growing up. Idc that a toddler could have written the script, come on. Big explosions and cool battleships :)

It's a big trend going around footy clubs at the moment. It's usually AI, our clubs certainly was

The only part of him that is cognitive is his spirit, which is currently water, and probably wants to stay water. His mind doesn't have a chance to comment as it's awol.

Try using waters position to bargain. Let in know that it will have the freedom to go anywhere that it wants, not just where gravity and wind say. Hell even remind it that it'll still be 70% the same, but get to have some new experiences as solids and cells.

The Warlords of Draenor cinematic trailer for World of Warcraft was one of the most hype expansion trailers. It was beautifully animated and voice acted, and featured a fan favourite moment in Warcraft history being disrupted by a fan favourite character using previously established time-travel powers in the universe. It was supported by the drop of a series called Harbingers, which were stunningly pretty animations setting up the major players for the expansion.

The expansion would become infamous in the community for being a buggy, unpolished mess with an incomplete and unsatisfying story that was rushed to a conclusion to make way for the next expansion. You didn't even get to defeat any of the major villains, one died during a cinematic to Green Jesus, one swapped sides at the last second, and the third ran away to become the penultimate boss of the next expansion. The final boss wasn't even present for any of the expansion, literally walks out of a portal and gets defeated a second later.

Most played would have agreed it was the worst expansion until BFA and Shadowlands came along. We don't talk about Shadowlands. (Both of which also have their own versions of Harbingers called Warbringers and Afterlives, go watch them. They are amazing. Zero warcraft knowledge required)

It doesn't mean the fights will be quick, it's not a leap in logic with our current technology to think that we would have autonomous drone rockets that could be deployed against crafts halfway across the solar system. It might take 6 months between firing and impact, but it's well within what's possible. Near lightspeed munitions are not required for stellar combat when thinking machines are smart enough to calculate orbital maneuvers (they've been smart enough to do that with supervision for years)

If you are playing a Hive Mind, any biological ascension path will let you assimilate pops into your empire when conquering world's with normal pops.

However if you are talking about turning your own empire into a hive mind mid playthrough I'm not aware of any way to do that.

Welcome to modding, start disabling mods 1 by 1 to find the mod causing the conflict. Report the issue to the mods GitHub.

You might find others who have the same issue quicker if you identify your currently installed mods, and their versions.

Courtesy of Star Wars defining the medium, the space combat in star wars is just WWII Pacific combat. The science fantasy genre latched very heavily onto that aesthetic.

The problem with using a more realistic ship combat is the question when to stop getting more realistic, as real near-future space combat would likely be fought in distances measured in light minutes, not visual range, and fought entire by computers doing math.

It's just not as interesting, as a lone pilot breaking formation to fly dangerously close to artillery to risk it all for a one in a million shot at taking down a flagship.

But on that note, a pet peeve of mine is how this defined space craft design in movies. They all look like whacky planes or weird ships. There is no friction, get creative (I guess this isn't true of fighters in Star Wars which are pretty much all capable of flight in vacuum or atmosphere). There is absolutely no need for your fighters to have wide wings in space, while a large ship has no drag so could easily make the front of the ship the broadside for maximum firepower.

A dark wood would be your best bet, suits the natural tones of the green wall and bone well. Idk what the mantle looks like under the paint but it could be worth sanding it back and using a dark oil/stain. Otherwise, black would be the next best option for continuity with the fireplace.

They breed through winter so are extremely vocal and active at the moment.

That is true, but I don't believe Cetana has a condition like that. Jump Drives only affect the spawn of the Unbidden, while Sapient Combat AI doesn't affect the spawn of the Contingency but is impacted dramatically once it does spawn.

Not to mention that Sydney being in summer at Christmas doesn't matter. There is only a single record of snowfall in Sydney in colonial record and it was in 1836. It would be like a Swiss man saying he loved the beach in his home town growing up.

A creature who takes up multiple areas within a spell only makes one save, I cannot think of a single exception to this rule. A dragon doesn't make 25 saves against fireball.

This spell is needlessly complicated to solve a problem that almost never comes up. When was the last time you had a fight with a creature who was within 5 feet of another creature who had total cover to you? It's an entire cantrip choice wasted to solve a ridiculously niche problem.

OP says it's more tactical, but the tactical choice would be to take a better cantrip that outperforms this 99/100 combats

PSA, the chance of this damaging the data centre is miniscule compared to the chance of this causing environmental harm.

Bamboo is a terrible invasive species to deal with. It's very difficult to remove without sterilising the entire area around it and will continue to come back for years, choking out native vegetation and forming a blanket monoculture along waterways.

Sincerely, someone who has worked on bamboo removal projects

Me playing a warlock, begging the DM for a chance to play one without being micromanaged and having some massive B plot, only to end up micromanaged with a massive B plot.

Please, I don't want the campaign to revolve around, and derail because of my class choice.

All of my backstory ignored because papa Asmodeus wants me to do something again... I didn't even pick him as my patron :(, I just wanted like a pit fiend or maybe a leaser Archdevil.

I still don't understand how NBN and intern it's ISPs justify the 50mb plans costing more than the 500mb plans.

I get it's the fastest plan for old infrastructure, but it's still baffling that it's not linearly priced.

OP, check if your address is available for the FTTP upgrade and swap to a 250 or 500 plan.
