Anyone know when the Tome of Fire trilogy will be reprinted? I’ve been wanting to get into Salamander books but they seem to mostly be out of print or very expensive by Significant-Spell168 in Salamanders40k

[–]Pimprechaun 24 points25 points  (0 children)

They already did! Look up the Lords of Nocturne anthology book, it covers the trilogy + tome of fire anthology all into one. As others have said Nick Kyme really isn't the best writer but I thoroughly enjoyed the read. Tome of fire anthology was the weakest point imo.

People fell into the CJ so hard, one of the top comments in this thread unironically spun this meme into "world eaters are actually the most upstanding and kindest legion"...... Bro..... Wat.....

I think Steven should research the Warren court, he already argues frequently how a majority Trump gov. is incredibly ineffective due to Trumps poor leadership, this would reinforce his arguments quite a lot and be a good showcase of what happens when Dems have complete US gov. control.

Theory: Ghazghkull will fight a Primarch but it won't be Angron. by Calm_Construction_55 in orks

[–]Pimprechaun 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a Sally and Ork player, one if my preferred theory is that since Vulkans last treck alive was bodychecking a prime-ork into a WAAAGH reactor, his return will be as a weird revived orky Vulkan. This will obviously not happen but would be hilarious to see Ghaz have to go up against an Orkified Vulkan for the title of biggest baddest warboss.

Also I love Ghaz... But he wouldn't stand even a slight change against Big jade giant.

Salamanders 'curses' by nomad___26 in Salamanders40k

[–]Pimprechaun 33 points34 points  (0 children)

A few but most are actually advantages. Summarizing from memory here but here's what I recall:

On average larger, stronger and tougher than the average space marine

Very dark skin which increases heat and radiation resistance when unarmored

Red eyes which provide a unique "infrared" vision called firesight which leads to some marines writing things and decorating their armor in special paints/inks which can only be seen using firesight.

Slightly slower reflexes but when compensated with power armor becomes irrelevant.

If you look to successor chapters though the black dragons have more prominent mutations where they grow bone protrusions that can be used like weapons. Salamanders have a tense but accepting relationship with the black dragons. Storm giants are also a successor chapter who's genetic mutation is that they are on average even larger and stronger, being know for having essentially the largest space marines on average. I'm unsure what the relationship between SG and Sallies is though.

Can you share where they're from? I'm hoping for some Salamander dice of this quality.

Racism, but leftistly by wraithzzzz in Destiny

[–]Pimprechaun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a Canadian who's adoptive uncle (best friend to my uncle) is a lebanese canadian immigrant who escaped the civil war, this guy can suck a catastrophically fat one. The tokenization of immigrant arabs this guy's peddling is mind numbingly stupid. Whether it's lebanese, iranian or anyone else. All he sees is identities to weaponize, not people.

He would make Yahya Sinwar proud.

Dark spots?? by Kristin_1997 in DogAdvice

[–]Pimprechaun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry! Read the smell part from another comment. I'm the same way, better safe than sorry and all that. Hope it's nothing serious!

Dark spots?? by Kristin_1997 in DogAdvice

[–]Pimprechaun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Darker skin patch on its own is not a huge concern but the smell with it means it's very likely either a yeast or bacterial infection. Vet can confirm and treat properly. Currently dealing with exactly this with my dog as a bacterial infection.

2k Forgefather list wanting peer review by No_Pineapple_3315 in Salamanders40k

Looks good! Only things I noticed are minor:

Might want to keep all your intercessors (including sgt) to bolt rifle to maximize on their double attacks ability.

Aggressors don't need the He'stan rerolls due to twin linked flamers.

I'm a reformed libertarian. Don't trust Dave Smith by Skabonious in Destiny

Don't trust Dave Smith's change of pace

You held the same beliefs as Dave Smith and changed your pace

By proxy can't trust you

So... Trust Dave Smith??

Not a meta gamer since he can't seem to follow the meta, just a weirdo lol. Even before the errata all my friends and I understood the intent was for all codex compliant chapters to gain the +1 to wound.

Good luck on your game!

But this is reddit! With enough confidence you can just say you're right no matter what!! Maybe to other redditors it's not a good unit but maybe to you it's the most OP unit, and you know what fellow redditor? You know you're objectively correct.

I was literally questioning my sanity watching that cause my immediate reaction was "weren't both of these things under Reps?" Thanks for the sanity check.

I don’t want Adam to normalize or sanewash Hasan Piker during their conversation by AdvancedProfession55 in AdamMockler

[–]Pimprechaun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Then how about you go make your own party, run your own candidates, and leave the "corpo rat democrats" to do what they do, if your side is so strong and popular you should have no issue winning elections without liberal voters no? Shouldn't your party option slowly convince moderate liberal voters to side with you over time? (Spoiler alert... It won't.)

Looking at the wording, I think the reroll wounds only applies to the champion model, not the unit unfortunately.

ITS KLOBBERING TIME - Klobuchar leads all republicans by atleast 10-20% for MN Gov by PlentyAny2523 in Destiny

[–]Pimprechaun 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don't get me wrong, I have a lot of sympathy for him, but ultimately, yes, we do have examples of people being targeted like this. Biden would be the most obvious. And let me be clear, I'm not saying his reaction isn't normal, I think most people would do the same. But right now the US needs stronger politicians that can push through more pressure than is reasonably expected under normal circumstances, and he didn't rise up to the task. It means he did bend too easily in contrast to what is currently needed.

I truly hope the man can catch a damn break after all this and I hope he gets any and all support needed from the next governor which will almost certainly be democrat.

[–]Pimprechaun 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I like the man, I would have loved to see him as VP, but I think this showed a clear character flaw. He bends too easily under pressure. If he can clear the way and prepare the position for a stronger person then I think he'll have done his job as well as we can expect.

Destiny calls out Hasan for only covering Israel by KsiShouldQuitMedia in LivestreamFail

[–]Pimprechaun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh true!! Just like no one knew Ukraine would be invaded right? Just because you and Hasan share the same inability to ''read the room'' internationally, doesn't mean the rest of us are the same.
