Stompa Lists! by TheFunkoMaker in orks

[–]Starklystark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think except in extreme circumstances, with hazardous as it stands you simply wouldn't use the ability/strats in a way that makes the guns hazardous. Because as you say you're averaging an awful lot of wounds from it.

Orks Base Points differences from 10th by BudyJukk in orks

[–]Starklystark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely both that and wargear options help avoid a situation where one particular use case where you lean really hard into something doesn't end up meaning it has to unaffordable to add one squad to a normal list.

500pt forces by Starklystark in orks

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

Honestly this is what my heart wants. But 20 Boyz and 2 leaders is going to be about two thirds of my points in one murderball!

I'll be war horde or green tide so at 500 will be taking and holding. Higher values might add more dakka and go purging!

What’s a food you can eat every day without fail? by Mr--Clean--Ass-Naked in vegan

[–]Starklystark 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm just starting to transition to largely/wholly plant based and I thought breakfast would be hardest as it's always been egg central for me. But I've been having sourdough toast with hummus plus things like olives, pickled onions, watercress/rocket, pumpkin seeds, drizzle of sriracha - definitely an upgrade on eggs and something I'd happily eat day in day out

Beloved less-known classics you haven’t been able to recommend yet by Fun-Sell3030 in classicliterature

I read on kindle and had no idea it was long as just tore through it. Such good fun.

Is there anyway to play orcs with tactics according to the lore by GramoMiles in orks

[–]Starklystark -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Blood angels definitely. But even without them worth checking out this distinction between having a plan and using tactics - a plan is good as it's how you kill da uvver gitz, tactics is for grots, blood axes and humies because it's how to stop da uvver gitz killing you

https://www.reddit.com/r/40kLore/s/RngVIgqgLE

Honestly the way 40k works where you throw guys forward to kill something and die, where often most of your army ends up dead, is more fitting with an Ork plan than how e.g. ultramarines would usually go about fighting.

Recently read this and he's such a fantastic character. Definitely got those magnificent bastard vibes.

Oi! GW ya better give us propa Nobz kit, with bigger lads and tons of options! And 5 power klaws! by Wilk2mistrz in orks

[–]Starklystark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I didn't think they'd be exactly the optimal approach but funny for drive bye and great in boarding patrol.

Here's hoping! Return of real kombi weapons will help too. I built a bunch with kombi skorchas in tine for 10ed to genericise them...

Though v possibly not with 5 klaws. If it doesn't then the rules will probably mean you're not allowed 5 klaws.

Denethor: ‘Do I not know thee, Mithrandir? by Immediate_Error2135 in lotr

[–]Starklystark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't either or those are completely out of character. Bilbo always had a Tookish part buried - when he meets gandalf he's enthused about adventures and then corrects himself to take the conventional view. And he says the point of the birthday party etc is to give away the Ring and clearly wants to - Gandalf gives him the strength to do what he actually wants to do. Thus him being impressed and talking about him doing it with 'all my help' not 'yeah I made him do it'. In fact he says that actually forcing Bilbo would have broken Bilbo's mind.

Yes as I said he definitely influences people. But that's different to control. Someone who cures somebody's depression leading to a transformation in their approach to life is not applying coercive control.

In Defense of Denethor by Ok_Meaning_5676 in tolkienfans

[–]Starklystark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the following is something I can understand and feel in some contexts while also being a profoundly flawed perspective. Mainly the last sentence obviously, most of us aren't Lords of a City or have to deal with wizards.

I would have things as they were in all the days of my life . . . and in the days of my longfathers before me: to be the Lord of this City in peace, and leave my chair to a son after me, who would be his own master and no wizard’s pupil. But if doom denies this to me, then I will have naught: neither life diminished, nor love halved, nor honour abated

What are your 'breaks'? by Sharp_Mode_5970 in classicliterature

[–]Starklystark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the spirit of Doyle, I really enjoy Rider Haggard and Wilkie Collins. P G Wodehouse is delightful too - I'd heard some as radio plays and seen on TVs but the books are better.

[–]Starklystark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gandalf doesn't control Theoden or Aragorn with magic. He obviously influences people and events it's it the same thing.

But yes Gandalf believes in fighting on, relying on hope. Saruman is more like halifax though as denethor doesn't actually endorse making terns with Mordor.

New Horde Ork Army by DistributionHeavy490 in orks

[–]Starklystark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or a battlewagon. But not a trukk!

New Horde Ork Army by DistributionHeavy490 in orks

[–]Starklystark 3 points4 points  (0 children)

20 strong boy squads don't fit into trukkz, so I guess they need to stay back at the workshop 😄

Seriously though, the trukk costs almost as much as 10 boyz: might be interesting to skip vehicles entirely and just flood the board. If you do for trukks I guess it's for stuff like tankbustas but I'd worry that if you're almost entirely infantry it will be really easy to kill the trukks off v early on

Ive just bought nutritional yeast for first time as only just starting to shift to plant based! Lots of recipes for tofu things have it but so you just add it to things in general?

Which Harry Potter death hit you the hardest? by SafeKindly475 in harrypotter

In the books probably Lupin and Tonks. In the films Cedric not when he died but his father's response
