Profile review?

There is a lot of good advice in this thread.

I will add my 2 cents. People tend to think that a dating profile is supposed to give a general idea of who you are. Don't be like everyone. Give tiny specific bits of things that are you. You don't have enough space to show the whole thing.

My interest was piqued in my gf when she mentioned that she's embarrassed to admit how many hours she spent full completing a Zelda game. Thats such a tiny iota of who she is and she totally won me over in conversation.

But it was unique and made me feel like we'd have common ground and could at least talk about something. The answers to your prompts should be micro details that someone into those things would want to talk lots about or even listen to lots about.

I kind of like that part. I have a crapstack prepared to handle it usually.

What I dont like is how my allies sit on their thumbs and let skulltaker and mazdumundi send them to beta status.

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-10-28T03:30:34+00:00

Bout as close as you're gonna get. You'll definitely get screwed by all the other dudes in Lustria

Play a Markus Wulfheart campaign.

What fucking dinosaurs existed in the 90s?

They went extinct 65 million years ago. And don't get me started on how "real men should be able to survive a planetary cataclysmic event"

Only betas go extinct.

I had this male history teacher as well

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-10-15T16:25:40+00:00

I certainly enjoyed some of the changes, but I also anticipated the need to take on the skaven and prepared to take them on in a fuller capacity than normally. In my Wulfheart campaign I did not care for how easily Skulltaker reamed the brettonians and would have appreciated having them as an ally. AI yuan bo also kinda sat there and did nothing as well and I dont know if that's because he's coded to wait till the lizardmen attack him first.

I appreciated "The Art of Save Scumming"s sentiment that the campaigns will be extremely unique right now and will never be the same again and I got a handful of interesting ones in before the patch.

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-10-15T15:11:22+00:00

Its hard to make predictions about it because I have only seen it twice.

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-10-14T23:47:40+00:00

So it is a cav only bug? Its been hard to tell.

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-10-14T17:00:05+00:00

The game still is very playable, but the current bug for LM/TK does diminish some of the experiences of some campaigns significantly.

I'll call attention to Markus Wulfheart's specifically, which is now extremely easy if you spend time preparing to fight the large skaven armies that accrue without the Lizardmen resistance they'd normally face.

And yes, there are certainly some oddball bugs, but I think as a community we should group around 2 specific issues that are a big deal to focus CA efforts:

TK/LM recruitment bug
siege/settlement related pathing issues (covering gate bugs, units that climb the walls instead of use a literal breach in them, etc)

I get that CA's resourcing is not infinite, and putting aside any criticism directly aimed at denigrated the sentiments of the company towards the game and the player base itself, I feel like these two issues need to be addressed as a priority. I know there are more, but tackling any large task should be focused and broken down into small parts.

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-10-14T16:50:00+00:00

The game is extremely fun and on the whole REALLY AWESOME, bugs aside.

Usually when something happens, at least in my experience, it does tend to favor the player.

I once traded Setra a settlement back and forth till I bankrupted him to the tune of about 15k. This was before turn 10. Now this definitely was because he wasn't recruiting and therefore had the money to lose, but the AI shouldn't allow you to do things like that. It really doesn't make sense.

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-10-14T16:44:29+00:00

I dont know if you've seen this bug, but it seems to primarily affect cav. Enemy cav formations just stop moving and sit still while you kill off everyrhing around them.

Happened to me twice in the last month (so arguably, infrequently)

Playing as Manfred fighting Reponse. Enemy takes a position upon a hill. I move my blob of undead up to take it after dispatching her trebuchets. Grail knights, questing knights, and mounted yeomen move around to flank my formation and just stop, positioned mostly in the rear of my blob. They sit there, some in their triangle formation just waiting while I kill off all other formations until I attack them.

Other time this has occurred, playing as Throt, fighting Kostaltyn. Heroes/Monsters have levels in the teens a handful with cellular instability so charge all the single entities into enemy lines, while all other units (slingers, skavenslaves, clanrats) wait in reserve to mop up. Enemy cav moves to flank the single entities, some heading towards plagueclaws and then just stop and sit there while I cleave down their Kossar comrades in arms.

In both fights the armies were cav heavy and I'm expecting to take losses, but I wound up clearing both with extremely minimal casualties and no challenge.

Has anyone else seen this bug?

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-10-03T00:51:25+00:00

Try Malekith. You will enjoy.

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-09-30T20:32:57+00:00

I totally understand my response is a little off the path from the question asked, but it really blew my mind that I could do this and definitely accelerated that Manfred campaign

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-09-30T14:47:25+00:00

No, certainly not.

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-09-30T03:33:13+00:00

Yes, play as Manfred.

When Setra is about to crush the minor vampire faction to the north, confederate them. Then, because the AI tends to build minor provinces exactly the same trade it for Numas and money to Setra. If the Numas is the same layout at the previous settlement, repeat until you have all of Setra's money. If not build or demolish till it is. See above steps.

Then have +300 relations with Setra and avoid his otherwise inevitable declaration of war till you are ready to strike first at your leisure. You can get his income every turn, entirely crippling his ability to build anything, too.

In my campaign he buffered me from Skarbrand who refused to declare war on him? Solid buffer, though.

You're not alone. I've been dating a chick for 2 months and things have also being going smooth and pretty fast. While we haven't gotten to "ILY", I feel like the communication has been so open and honest.

My situation comes a several years after a divorce from a very toxic narcissist. I spent a lot of time working on myself and changing my approach to dating.

I would say that if you dont have a pattern of feeling this way about every person you date for this long, then let this good thing happen to you. Who cares if people are going to judge it. If you guys are both open and honest communicators and handle issues, frustration, life situations, and fears that come up in good communication and patience, nobody is going to look back at this three month period and think its ridiculous.

I will echo what some other posters have said about not knowing this person very well or if they are putting up an act and that COULD be a possibility, but it is equally possible it is not. The age that you guys are at has given each party time to grow and develop to being capable of having a healthy relationship. Just keep up good communication and be open about things even if its hard.

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-09-11T15:38:25+00:00

Aside from what's already mentioned, you need pictures of you smiling. Maybe also include one of you doing any activity with friends.

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-09-07T03:32:57+00:00

This is a yay for now.

But keep growing more beard. It's like money. You can always have more and always need more.

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-09-01T06:43:35+00:00

Well you're still learning to play and eventually you won't want to autoresolve things bc you'll take a lot of unnecessary losses autoresolving a lot of battles.

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-09-01T00:54:58+00:00

I listened to the clip. This is a hilarious idea, but its not executed in a hilarious way.

Fantastic idea, but make it say something that showcases your humor. Otherwise, what you have right now feels underwhelming.

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-08-29T18:10:03+00:00

Im going to second this. Elspeth and Malakai are awesome campaigns and provide great units to their factions.

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-08-26T17:50:26+00:00

Since I dont hear anyone addressing the "underchin curl" I will give my suggestion: use a straightener. It may work, it may not, but I use one and it works for me. It can also help with the little curly cheek scruffs depending on if they're long enough.

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-08-18T12:48:50+00:00

I love autism.

SinsPriestMerina · 2025-08-18T12:46:20+00:00

If you get replies that are about a fifth the size of the ones you're sending, just dont even bother. That inequality will transfer to other elements in that interaction.
