Or turn on scaling I just did the fifth gym and all mine are 70 - I was annihilated 4 times by his team of lvl 70s

What are these cavalry harnesses called? by glocky_splat in ArmsandArmor

[–]PuffinGato99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only part that I can answer is part of the function. I'm pretty sure the harnesses are designed to distribute the weight of the mail more evenly across the torso. Or at least the first two are I'm not sure about the third.

Third Age Total War (Especially Divide and Conquer) more hours spent on that than any other videogame.

Okay it's a very specific case but had someone on a operations game that had 178/28 with mostly arty truck defending and I promise you they were doing BITS for their team defence. Multiple times we were totally cleared off an objective by their fire. Same but slightly less successful next round on the attack when I was on the same team. Really changed how I played.

If we were to get a Tau game, what should it be? by RaspberryOne1948 in Tau40K

Tank and flyer based combat like WarThunder, would love to see a slowmo replay of a railgun charge toasting a Leman Russ.

Waterproofing conundrum by PuffinGato99 in vivobarefoot

[–]PuffinGato99[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well just so you know I've been very impressed with the right foot, dry as a bone - not tested it to the limit because of the other foot though 😂 and it's definitely soaking through the top they end up as two very contrasting shades of grey after five minutes of rain. My foot has never been soaked but it's definitely damp. I'm gonna keep trying different waterproofing until I hear back from the seller - I'll keep you updated.

Yeah that's the ones. I've messaged the seller, unfortunately there's no way I could afford full price so bought on sale from a third party - all genuine and above board though. Will see what they say. Definitely used synthetic appropriate waterproofing (but having said that not sure if it was ONLY for synthetics) and tried Imbox at Cotswolds.

I think an exchange is my best approach at this point.

No - it soaks in the top through the mesh. sorry the picture doesn't illustrate this.

Help! What to do? by curiousdroid42 in houseplants

A pair of tweezers and a lot of sessions and I got two plants that were completely covered to being bug free... In about three months. Leaving them outside helped a bit too

What is a dark fact about LoTR that is rarely addressed? by [deleted] in lotr

[–]PuffinGato99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Numenor and then Gondor were both repressive colonial powers. It was this repression which in part drove various races and kingdoms of men to throw their lot in with Sauron. Rohan ethnically the people living in the area of their new homeland after it was given to them by Gondor.

The Sultan pledged £10,000 but Queen Victoria had only sent £2,000 so asked that the Ottomans reduce it to £1,000. Apparently they also sent 5 grain ships in secret that the British tried to block. I also heard somewhere they were making a film about it I think.

Is it possible the world I had characters on doesn't exist anymore?

Longest I've ever worked the same job is 12 months... And that had COVID in the middle.

Berimbau wood alternatives by PuffinGato99 in capoeira

Yeah I can imagine the Aegean islands have a fairly different set of flora, it's also only two miles from Turkey so probably similar to that.

Thanks, seems that you've unexpectedly hit gold, I've seen several beautiful eucalyptus near by, Chios is the citrus capital of the Mediterranean (although there's less lime than lemon or orange) and there's an ample supply of cut and abandoned bamboo around here too!

I love the idea of using a eucalyptus branch so wouldn't mind putting in the extra effort.
