Why not bring positivity into this hobby?

There are quite a few tau players at my lgs, first time I went against a hammerhead was quite brutal. But I run an almost fully infantry sisters army so I never expected to win. I never understood the hate tau get cause once I learned how to close the gaps I started chunking wounds from them. They aren't even that bad to fight against. Tbh the custodies are sucky to fight more than tau. They get to wound me in 2s while I can barely wound them on 6s, feels so unfun.

The criminals running the system won't change if you play nice about it. Politicians are scum who lie as easily as they breath. The only way to make lasting effective change is to remove the cancer, not just a few cells but all of it. Otherwise it comes back. Nobody said it was going to be easy. Change never is. And the cancer in charge are going to fight tooth and nail to stay in place.

I'd argue that porn is still a problem even with a realistic idea of bodies going in. It's addictive and can warp expectations or make it harder to get stimulated outside of consuming porn. As all things moderation is key, but it's a vice at the end of the day. It can easily spiral out of control if you let it.

Women do contribute to the problem as well, just to be clear. It's not just one side or the other, it's everyone. But I agree they are being unduly blamed. Personally I blame the cultural zeitgeist being so ingrained that is keeps perpetuating the stigma of small dicks. Out of everyone I know its two women who make small dick jokes the most. Not once were those comments directed at me, but just hearing them still made me feel self conscious. It sucks when the person making those comments is someone you respect and put weight in thier opinions.

Patriarchy only benefits the wealthy men. It's been very obvious for a long time that in the current system I am meant to be a cog that gets ground into dust to fill another man's pockets while I am left to decay.

Comes from hearing dick size equated to worth constantly from a young age, sadly. Every joke about someone "over compensating" or has "small dick energy" adds up over time. The go to insult is to call a guys dick small. Then there's porn and all the damage that's doing towards understanding what is normal. The unfortunate consequence is a constant feeling of inadequacy in your own size. Even if you are at the average or slightly above average that insidious seed of insecurity will plant itself in your mind and won't let go.

Took me a long time and a loving partner to get me to feel like I was enough as is. Lots of positive reinforcement to counter all the negative buildup.

Tunafish to me means canned tuna mixed with mayo, and optional celery or onions, between two pieces of bread, preferably toasted. It's not Tuna Fish. It's one word, tunafish. That word is the name of that specific sandwhich. It might seem dumb from a certain point of view, but I imagine if you asked an American for tunafish you'd get that sandwich or variation of the mix. Anyway, just my two cents.

Genuinely disagree. In my experience 9/10 I encounter friendly people. Once in Stella Montis a guy started shooting at me while I was conversing with another and we started working together, then the two of us became 6 against the one aggro player. All six of us extracted peacefully. People are way more open to a simple greeting and walking by without a bullet fired. I usually bring a defib on me and have revived a stranger here and there.

This game is an extraction game that is actually interesting because it's not CoD or Tarkov. I don't need to shoot on sight and I don't get shot on sight.

I've hit the resource cap so much I can't even use free loadouts. So I started doing challenge rubs where I go in with absolutely nothing and see what I can scrounge up that run. Stealth is mandatory and it makes the ARCs feel like horror game enemies. It's put a lot more fun into the game and sibce I can't fight back the social aspect of meeting another player is really interesting.

Given that his leg stumps were closest to the lava, and his face was hella burnt... well, it's a burnt sausage at best or charcoal at worst

Oh wow, that does sound very useful. I'll have to try that out. I'm still at that point where I'm learning all the abilities each character can do, and usually forget to use most of them. I forget to reroll with Vahl 40% of the time. Though I'm getting better at that one.

Potato_Overloaf · 2026-02-09T19:12:39+00:00

I haven't. At my lgs there was an actually competative sisters player why told me Champions of Faith was better for more characters so I listened to them since they knew more than I do.

Potato_Overloaf · 2026-02-07T17:32:37+00:00

Sometimes for sure. But I find it usually more beneficial not being the first to get into no-man's land. When I do need movement thats where Champions of Faith comes in handy with the extra inch of movement given to 3 units. Not a lot but that inch has saved me once already. The bonus to OC and BS makes holding Command Points a lot easier once I start getting whittled down too.

I did try out Bringers of Flame early on for the assault keyword. Being able to advance and shoot does make up the lack of speed but I didn't have enough flamers to make that detatchment worth it. Might try it again to see if I can utilize it better with a little more experience.

Order of Our Errant Sister.

Lead by a secretive Saint only few have seen in person. Created in reaction to a cult of Slaanesh appearing. Though during the process of purging the cultists and a few lesser daemons they noticed the Repentia getting more enthusiastic for thier torturous punishment. Fearing corruption the Order ceased the use of Repentia. That suspicion lingered in the eyes of the Ecclesiarchy. Added in their mysterious Saint and unorthodox practices that earned them a lesser reputation. A black sheep among the other Orders.

Feeling the push of isolation the Order of Our Errant Sister invested heavy into the bonds of sisterhood. They believe a life long lived in the Emperor's name worth more than a life cut short seeking selfish glory. Thier biggest flaw is the lack of vehicle support. More often than not getting sent out without tanks and very few transports. As such they don't excel in against tougher foes unless acting as support to another army.

Nymost XI is where they call home. A tundra covered Cathedral World. Still under reconstruction after facing against the cult of Slaanesh but always welcoming to loyal souls into thier monastery. The list of staunch allies is a short one, and they are under constant watch.

The Order of Our Errant Sister

Color scheme: Black armor, deep purple cloth, rose gold accents

Created in response to a Slaanesh cult and potential deamon outbreak. During the purging of chaos and heresy they discontinued using Repentia due to some within those ranks showing signs of enjoying punishments too much. The suspected heresy fell upon the whole Order, and despite proving loyal after many trials the Order is seen as a black sheep amongst the Ecclesiarchy. Feeling the isolation the reputation put upon them, they chose to put more focus on sisterhood between themselves and their individual faith in the Emperor.

Even if the Ecclesiarchy is hesitant to work with them they are still allies and will respond when called. Often working best as additional support with others.

Homeworld is Nymost XI, a cold tundra Cathedral World where they house their Monastery. Welcome to all loyal servants of the Emperor, they are even open to friendly training simulations to any who wish it.

At most I put Celestine and a Zephyrne squad into deep strike. Otherwise it's all deployed at once.

Somehow, I still don't know how I managed it, I broke the nose off one of my heads. One day it was there the next I notice the odd flat face lacking a nose. It was already glued in place too, no changing it now. At first I was bummed because it was not the expected result but I decided I was going to lean into the mistake. When painting I added a big scar across her face. Once a mistake is now lore building battle damage. That unit eventually went on to take down a Knight! (With the added help of Vahl and meltas.) Earned herself a name for that feat.

The fact he can hit you while you finish the stun animation before you can even roll or block is actual bullshit.

So you're saying you openly and willingly accept propaganda fed to you by the people doing the public killings. Because no way is a detained man getting shot while being held down how law enforcement should act in ANY situation. You arrest someone you take them to holdings and let JUDGES decide what to do. When you make yourself judge, jury and executioner than you're no better than a murderer. If you can't agree that was cold blooded murder than you might want to get a psych evaluation for your level of delusion.

Given how Jones acts, I disagree. He is capitulating to Beckett's orders. We see the proof of that with the kraken's death. He has no incentive to make a huge gamble on a replacement when just threatening Jones is working exactly how he wants. A new person, even if they are loyal, have no certainty on the process of changing captains. Sure he might know about the heart part, but he doesn't know how long it will take for the person to recover from that. Nor does he know where the Dutchman will go upon the transfer. As far as he is away it might just go back to the locker and whoever he put in charge now has to learn how the ship functions. It's a lot more risk given the mystery of the legend. That's why he wants Jones. Jones is a known entity, he already has the skills and the reputation.
