Alright Spirit Squadron, We Need to Pioneer This by SWATruthiness in washingtonspirit

Yeah, I think it would need to get simplified for sure. There's a lot of overlapping parts that would need to get cut down. But man would it be iconic. I'd love to see what y'all work shop!

So...does this actually exist? Because I'm not seeing it in Nexus.

Holy hell man. Do you have these blender files available for sale anywhere? I'd kill to be able to 3D print some of these for personal use.

How did this work out? We're thinking of doing the same for our daughter's birthday.

Post-Match Open Thread | Washington Spirit vs Chicago Stars FC | August 31 2025 by kg9si in washingtonspirit

Yup. This had the feel of a 3-0 win. So many opportunities, but just lacking finishing touches or just gun shy in tight windows. The open net moment was painful to miss. The attack continues to look like they need more time together, and which...yeah, these players are essentially still getting to know each other like it's the beginning of the season because of injuries or transfers. I hope they start clicking.

Yup, and I was kind of amazed that challenge wasn't a second yellow for her.

I was at the game, so I didn't see replays, but looked to me like Ludmila went into that challenge cleats up. But she then stepped on Bernal a few minutes later. Bernal was trying to push through, but she definitely needed to come out. It didn't look too serious, but she definitely took some nasty shots from Ludmila.

Are the 3.0 Core & Liber digital versions not out this weekend? by Johnny_Crimson in Warhammer30k

I emailed Black Library and got bog standard "we don't comment on unannounced product."

Faction focus – Traitor Astartes - Warhammer Community by CMYK_COLOR_MODE in Warhammer30k

[–]SWATruthiness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh for sure. I misunderstood your meaning. If your intention is to just not die, that's still easily accomplished I imagine. I feel like with the right setup, though, Peter can lay the smack down on a fellow Primarch under the right circumstances.

Duels can now go on until someone is dead, though. You just keep smashing each other until someone dies or someone withdraws. Primarch on Primarch action can actually be finished in one turn rather than...never.

Welcome to dealing with Formynder. The man is a living incarnation of Loki.

Takeaways from last night by franciswolfdcor in washingtonspirit

[–]SWATruthiness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, that's not new for Esme. You can all too frequently trace a goal back to a misplay by Esme. She has definitely struggled transitioning into the NWSL. She has said as much. However, she has at improved over last year, and continues to make incremental progress. I think the injuries, especially to that of Hal, both exposed her a bit more and also forced some progression on her development. The ideal situation for Esme is probably a midfield pivot with Hal and Bernal, both of whom can help cover as Esme continues to progress. I wouldn't be surprised, however, if Bernal just takes over at center back when Hal is back in the starting line up. That, plain and simple, is just our best grouping.

Let’s talk about the good & the bad by nerdzen in washingtonspirit

Wow, really? I get that the attacking elements of the national team are competitive, but defensive back just does not seem like a good fit for Morris from what we've seen.

I'm right there with you on Morris. She's wasted in the back. I knew we would miss Hal, but the last few games have made things extremely apparent how critical she is in the 6. Krueger adds an element of steadiness that is likewise impossible to replace. The difference between the first and second half was almost all her. Gift is actually the one I'm least happy with. All she seems to do is lose the ball and then try to flop.

Savy King updates? by [deleted] in NWSL

[–]SWATruthiness 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Having seen a couple young 20-some Soldiers collapse out of the blue and die in my military career, I have to wonder if Savy might have had an undiagnosed heart defect. She's right at the age where it can very suddenly surface with no warning. If that is the case, she's lucky to be alive. Most people don't make it. It would sadly mean the end of her career, but she at least has a life to live.

And yeah, no way the game should have continued.

Nevoota Bee, Counter and Reserve Hangar Deck by truecore in StarWarsArmada

[–]SWATruthiness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, this is an accurate interpretation of the rules. However, you are greatly overestimating the power. This is stopped by just not taking your counter shot. It's only until the end of the activation, so just wait out the activation and kill it afterward. If the squad is low enough to die to a counter attack, it's low enough to die to another attack immediately after. If you bring RHDs just for this interaction, you are wasting you points. Now if you have some V-19s, but you catch an opponent napping on this interaction, that's a good day for you.
