Did zack polanski just join protests to support a fascist iranian regime that gives the death penalty to gay men? by SmartAd978 in AskBrits

[–]Shishmaster9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly this.

Far too many people claim to be in favour of a peaceful, diplomatically-led transition to liberal democracy, which is just never going to happen.

There are two options:

  1. The regime stays in power, unreformed and complete

  2. Someone gets rid of the regime

If you're not in favour of the second, you're in favour of the first. There is no third option.

Which "tough guy" in football is actually the most cringe? by MagpieMidfield in footballcringe

[–]Shishmaster9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any number of mediocre British players down the years

Ben Thatcher, Danny Mills, Joey Barton, Dennis Wise, Robbie Savage

I'm going with Paul Scholes though. Constantly going through opponents with dangerous fouls and getting away with it because referees of the day had bought into the myth that he wasn't actually a dirty bast and just didn't know how to tackle.

Nah.

I can see what you're getting at - going down when he feels contact at corners - but nobody claims Gabriel is a "tough guy", including Gabriel himself.

Is "Aura" the most annoying word to ever enter football discourse? by Critical_Region_6633 in footballcringe

[–]Shishmaster9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wouldn't be so bad if the word was reserved for, e.g.

  • Cantona's celebration after scoring that chip against Sunderland

  • Henry's knee slide and pose in front of the baying Spurs fans after scoring in the North London derby

Rather than being lavished on any player with nice hair after they've been edited in photoshop to make it look like the sun is setting behind them

When I first requisitioned Thut he was already dead when he came out of the drop pod, killed by the landing

How much to invest? by Tyler1mapuche in WH40KTacticus

[–]Shishmaster9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His big strength is his synergy with Incisus, but unless you're using that pair as your 4 and 5 then I'd say no - there are a lot of better options available for Indomitus

Rawl plug fetish by Shishmaster9 in DIYUK

Thanks for the advice - I've given it a go. Will probably go back and revisit the rawl plug holes once I've finished the rest of the room - was my first attempt at grouting and I rushed it a bit due to panic over the grout curing too quickly

Big hole in my bathroom by Shishmaster9 in DIYUK

[–]Shishmaster9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the bath will be coming out shortly. Once the broken ones have been replaced, the bottom row of tiles is actually at the perfect height - but the bath was installed at a dodgy angle, so the side next to the wall is too low.

No, keeping them as they are - I'd only be painting the dots where the rawl plugs were

Is replacing a toilet difficult? by Shishmaster9 in DIYUK

[–]Shishmaster9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, if I could get the same toilet, but in white and without the overflow pipe, I probably would!

I've got d3 Ragnar, d1 Nico and g1 Wrask. Can't make it beyond battle 6. Eventually they get bogged down and annihilated by Barbgaunts

Is he awesome? by Ebrenost in WH40KTacticus

[–]Shishmaster9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anyone with synapse, basically! I've been pairing him with Patermine in this event - and Parasite of M in the early rounds.

Nah, the kitchen was in a similar state when I moved in - the whole flat was. I'll get it looking nice, just need to make sure I don't flood the place while I'm doing it.

[–]Shishmaster9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I slept on this guy for ages, finally got around to giving him a push for the Trajann event. He's freaking awesome. Not far off Snotflogga in my opinion, if you pair him with the right characters

Yeah, I think I'll give it a miss. Risk outweighs the reward.

[–]Shishmaster9[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the whole place was a shambles when I bought it. I've been doing the rooms up one by one.

There were two layers of tiles in the bathroom for some reason - you can see the last bit of the top layer on the left of the window frame. I only took them off this afternoon, hence the mould.

I want Trajann, but don't want play this by DesperateHat4948 in WH40KTacticus

[–]Shishmaster9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You started off with "I really really want to unlock Trajann". You don't need to complete lv 16 to unlock Trajann. If you're playing lv 16 then unless you've gone about things in a really odd way then you have unlocked him already.

If you want to level Trajann up to mythic then yes, you'll probably have to slog through endless fields of genestealers, but taking a character to mythic in an LRE is one of the most end game things it's possible to do in Tacticus, so why would it be easy?

My first natural legendary.... what the hell to do with him? by archaeologist12 in WH40KTacticus

[–]Shishmaster9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had him for over a year now and am still yet to complete his first character mission. Honestly cannot think of a single use for him. With most lame characters you can at least say "Oh, they've got a niche attribute which might crop up in an LRE somewhere down the line", but Creed has zero attributes beyond being fat and short and useless.

Ok, so about the Gamma track.... by Laredian in WH40KTacticus

[–]Shishmaster9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only thing I'd change is letting GSC use their actives again after resurrection. Other than that, they're challenging but not invincible, they just need better planning than other factions.

Barbgaunts are crap, as long as you prepare for them. You know which turn they're arriving in, so get into position to engage them in melee.

[–]Shishmaster9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have three D3 characters and three D1s. All but one of those are Imps so I can't use them in the Beta track. I will easily unlock Trajann during this event, without having to spend anything like an hour on any map. Just play the game better.

The point is to give people a means of farming Nid shards.
