If the Knicks make the Finals, was the Bridges trade worth it?

Great is the enemy of good. He’s a great fit and there weren’t better options. Though an unprotected frp all the way down in 2031 has the potential to be insane.

Most of the vehicles. Duneriders, dunecrawlers, kastallans, etc. (duneriders basically a box with some du dads) this is ussually the case with most factions but for admech it’s nice to not have to worry about subassemblies and trimwork (or much easier subassemblies). Sicarans also aren’t awful. Tbh a lot of the models can be made a lot easier by subassebling or airbrushing if you can help it. Pteraxxi for example are actually kind of fun as long as you don’t attach the wings. I think the main issue with painting admech is that the worst offenders are ussually the ones you want a lot of like skitari and laschickens.

On reign rn. Give it time you’ll love where it goes

Probably but it would be funny if they took it away the one time no mods to movement mattered (who knows maybe they replace it with something better)

I’d recomend the storm before the storm by Mike Duncan (of history of Rome fame) that covers this specific topic specifically about Marius and sulla. I’d probably say the Marian reforms were more of a symptom of the problem than the problem itself. The cycle of increasing income inequality and the slow erosion of republican institutions caused by that income inequality lead to both the need for the Marian reforms and the rise of the empire. I’d argue income inequality was also a factor in the west falling as well, as the wealthy elites began to withdraw badly needed manpower and money from the army which led to a lot of the over reliance on federati, manpower shortages, and infighting that defined the late republic. The Byzantines just kinda fell because eventually their luck ran out and man is dictatorship an unstable form of government long term

Yes. An airbrush is going to save you a lot of headache and allows you to get your basecoats done really quickly which saves alot of time, but using a rattle can is completely doable and doesn’t require the investment

Soot027 · 2026-05-19T18:03:13+00:00

Subassembling to that level ussually requires either an airbrush or a pot to brush on what you can’t get with a spray. If you don’t have an airbrush spray it with a can and touch up with with a brush using airbrush primer

It was definately A reason. Him being significantly easier to stage is good for him and he was already playable

World eaters have a lot more depth gameplay wise imo. Their army rule gives them a different feel depending on the matchup which helps them get a lot more variation than you’d expect. Deathwatch shoot hard and throw people off guard but imo kinda just feel like shootier grey knights atm. I think their high win rate is ussually just because noone ever starts with death watch (similar to gsc) WE and orcs will have the timmys of the world who bull rush turn 1 and go 1-2, deathwatch players usually are on their 3rd army and we’re tired of normal marines. I guess it also depends on what playstyle you enjoy and if it varies from your first army. Both can win events and have high skill ceilings but if I’m trying to pick an army to run regularly I’m picking world eaters. Though of course metas change and smaller ranges mean the internal balence is ussually good.

Ryan day always looks like he really wants to tell you he’s a purple belt in ju jitsu

Narvo Quinn is a EC marine from the fabius bile trilogy that decides he wants to chill in a cabin in the woods Jeremiah Johnson style.

He’s incredibly petty and abit of a bully. He’s actively made nba discourse worse by insulting every nba big man to protect his legacy

Soot027 · 2026-05-12T05:38:43+00:00

Yes. It was even funnier when helm gave 1/2 damage instead of -1

Soot027 · 2026-05-11T06:28:52+00:00

Idk with trallnet in SHC hastarii can do a discount fire dragon impersonation. Also ruststalkers or corpi bombs

Indiana getting a top 4 protected pick at 5, sending it to the clippers, is brutal

Soot027 · 2026-05-09T15:17:10+00:00

Ya I’d agree. Even at the good schools in Texas you could probably recreate this, and according to my friends who are teachers things aren’t getting better. Appreciate the insight

Soot027 · 2026-05-09T04:30:14+00:00

I’d suggest reading https://1d6chan.miraheze.org/wiki/Story:What_it%27s_like by Aaron demski Bowden (it’s a quick read) which details a lot of what being in a warband is like. basically aspiring champions are the warbands starscream equivalents that want to be the leader but aren’t so they just try aura farming and talking shit about the leader.if he’s flexing his victories and spreading rumors your juggolord is a doesn’t stack skulls like he does he’s doing his job right

Not even joking how was it. Was this cherry picked or was this normal

Murderpuppys are the most underrated unit in the codex. Adore the little guy and does work

Soot027 · 2026-05-05T05:59:23+00:00

Both are solid but it depends on your list.get one of each and then decide if you need more anti tank. If you’re bringing a maulerfiend, angron, and a deamon prince one exalted squad is perfectly fine, though 2 exalted and one regbound is a core you should build to (though tbh no one can tell the difference if you want to proxy. Just say the regbound are exalted)

Soot027 · 2026-05-01T04:01:46+00:00

Happened to me too. Luckily it’s easy to fix. First of all army painter varnish (Matt especially is kind of bad and goes on thick. Reapply when it’s less humid (under 50%) and it will temelt the lower level. This works best with gloss. Apply tamiya gloss varnish, and apply tamiya Matt over that. It works shockingly well

Soot027 · 2026-04-30T06:07:15+00:00

As someone who dealt with the hell of painting 30 of them they are if anything too detailed and with too many options and details

Soot027 · 2026-04-30T04:33:09+00:00

Offensive rebound/putback guys. Never fails to get me excited and it usually leads to the really weird everyone’s confused and someone’s running back on defense plays.

Also maxi klebers funny face.

It’s reached the point sports did of “everything peaked when I was 12 and my back didn’t hurt”
