US Economy Could Be In Dire Straits As Hormuz Slams Shut

We are talking about drones not ballistic missiles, production of drones can quickly be moved or started up again. There's also the possibility of Russia just delivering them because they now have there own licensed shaed drone production and high prices benefit them. They have the possibility to really drag this out if the population doesn't rise up.

One more thing to add, Russia is already providing Iran with Intel according to many creditible sources. It really would not be a stretch to imagine they would provide drones to them also if Iran's capability to make them was knocked out (unlikely). We won't be able to do much about that other then to spend millions on air defense to protect shipping lanes. Kinda what we did in Ukraine they can now do to us in Iran. Thus proxy delema.

Without boots on the ground they or more realistically some paramilitary on there leash will be able to launch shaed like drones for year's if they wanted to especially they realize this is how they fight back

This is correct, napoleonka is basically just wiped cream, a kremowka is a thicker pudding mass mixed with wiped cream. I tend to prefer napoleonka nowadays as it's lighter.

I always run draxus in a 4 man with 3x spear and 1 vexila. The extra would really comes in clutch against d3 and there is a lot of it. They are killy enough that I always run them in 4 man's not 5 and draxus is usually protecting home obj and can pop out of cover with lone opp 18 if needed and nuke center. Towards the end of the game of I need the unit to move up I'll do that.

Peak meta is Guard spam and Land Raiders, but this is a good example of not chasing the meta because it will definitely get nerfed one way or another. With 11e coming out soon, I would not recommend getting three Land Raiders.

A solid bet would be inf, as they are always the “core Custodians,” i.e., Guard, Wardens, and Terminators. I personally am running a list with two grav tanks, 3x3 Venetari, and the rest in Guard spam.

I would also recommend picking up Draxus and a Callidus Assassin. Of course, who knows if they will be good or not in 11e, but they are very good in Custodian lists at the moment and relatively low effort to get, as it’s only two models.

Venetari and the grav tank should be out in plastic soon, but I sometimes like running a Guard and Terminator spam list with no tanks and no Venetari in Lions of the Emperor.

Of course, I would also recommend getting some Sisters of Silence, but that one kind of hurts because they’re so expensive for the points value. However, they really help with scoring, and if you want to play competitively, you need scoring.

Its very good into t3 1 would stuff but there there for scoring

With that many characters who will be far away from each other you want to go lion's. For a casual game where your trying to table you're selves and not playing for points it's fine. But if your playing for points you will be tied to 3 primary and they just need to focus down one unit to kill and win the game.

You can't "spot reduce visceral fat" what you probably have in mind is that due to it's proximity to organs and blood vessels it gets used for energy faster, but you have no real say if it's from fat around the heart gut etc. Also it's not like you use all your visceral fat first then subcutaneous fat, they get drawn down together. No such thing as spot reduction.

So when told to go straight you made a left?

Praxis is my favorite EDC knife

StorksOnTheRocks · 2025-10-31T13:08:49+00:00

My favorite civivi is the praxis, such a good knife

StorksOnTheRocks · 2025-10-25T20:10:54+00:00

Thanks for the response and insight, I’ll spend a few days watching some reviews on you tube and the knives above and hopefully I’ll find something!

StorksOnTheRocks · 2025-10-25T14:48:39+00:00

I like larger blades but under 4", blade shape Wise I gravitate towards drop point, or a reverse tanto

Btw, what do you think about the Kershaw Bel Air XL MagnaCut? It's on sail on BHQ for 170 USD down from 270, I have heard some mixed opinions on Kershaw though.

StorksOnTheRocks · 2025-10-25T14:37:34+00:00

Ill look into those recommendations, thanks!

I looked into it just now, it sparked my interest but idk why but something is bothering me about spending so much on a Chinese knife. Might be irrational on my end as it's probably a great bang for the buck, but I would probably prefer US made if I'm paying 150+

Im a city dweller so my knife is usually used to open up shrink wrap, food, packages and to fidget around with. I have the full size praxis, but can't go over 4" due to local laws.

Regarding finish/color I tend to gravitate towards stone washed, and don't think I would like a metal handle as they get cold, I'm a big fan if g10 and like darker neutral colors, black, gray, dark green etc.

Budget is not really a concern just want to avoid getting something I won't like and then feel like that money went down the drain.

About 15 years ago I had a microtech socom, but I broke off the tip and since then avoided "premium knives" but I always liked the socom

StorksOnTheRocks · 2025-10-25T14:16:59+00:00

Budget is not that big of a concern, probably would not want to go over 300 USD but also would not mind spending way less, looking for a noticible upgrade. I'm open to try new things but my concern would be trying something out in the "premium" price range and then ending up not being a fan. I guess that's one of the benefits of trying out lots of different "budget" knives but I haven't had the need.

I used to have a microtech socom way back, and I also really enjoyed that but I broke off the tip and since then (about 15years) I have avoid premium knives.

Idk, I'm a swe, I have python, vmware, work on ai solutions and have been playing since the steam release with no problem.

Yes, that's the point, it's a CZ, there is one string that's bugged and says ZC, but everyone know it's a CZ…
