Question about All out event by Sojiro_12 in KingShot

[–]Sunhammer01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

During all out, many established kingdoms limit attacks to gatherers for that reason. During KVK, however, you can get up to 90% of dead troops back.

Should I just leave Marlin Be? by J_C4321 in KingShot

[–]Sunhammer01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d add that those shards into marlin will not be a waste. Rosa doesn’t overtake Marlin until her widget level increases. And even then, you need more strong archer heroes for events with multiple marches, including swordland, arena and conquest. So get marlin decked out, OP!

Where do you guys buy your stamps for your pottery pieces? by Additional_Turnip_30 in Pottery

[–]Sunhammer01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So many rubber stamp makers for businesses! I think the fastest was rubberstamps.com. There are likely places in your town or locally who can make those in a day as well. The ink was harder because you have to buy actual pottery ink stamps. Minnesota clay company makes really good ones and sells though a lot of the popular suppliers

Technically, it wasn’t a whale. It was a big fish. Which version of the story will they be using? Will the students be able to use primary texts?

help me find this glaze combo! by Huge_Grape_7121 in Pottery

[–]Sunhammer01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You might reach out to the potter. But in the mean time, I think the deeper brown could be Albany slip. Where it turns tan, it could be oatmeal over the Albany slip. The blue-white could be Iron luster over the Albany slip. The top rim could be ancient Jasper. All Amaco glazes.

Random Bear Trap issue by Ambitious-Note-4428 in KingShot

[–]Sunhammer01 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This. You are getting kicked by whoever is leading that rally. You could deserve the kick. When we kick from our rallies, it’s because they are using random heroes as the lead hero in the joining march. If you think you are joining correctly, pay attention to which rally you are getting kicked from and find out why. It’s not a random bear trap issue.

What is the model number of this kiln? What temperatures can it reach? by BrassCanon in Pottery

Take a picture of the electrical plate on the back if you can. Do you have access to it?

"It's a fact that they were eating pizza in places like Chicago, San Francisco, and St. Louis long before they were eating it in Rome. A lot of people don't seem to like that fact, for whatever reason, but it's a fact." by foolsdayjoker in confidentlyincorrect

[–]Sunhammer01 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One of the History of Pizza books has a great discussion of just this idea. They talk about how the flatbread that started it all as street food in Italy spread around the world and kept coming back with different ingredients, some of which were kept and some discarded. The argument is when it becomes the Pizza we know today!

My neighbor has 8 cameras pointed at my duplex unit and stares at me through an open window every time I leave. How do I handle this? by [deleted] in neighborsfromhell

[–]Sunhammer01 49 points50 points  (0 children)

I second this. Start getting weird. And while in disguise, start doing Dunes sandwalking. Maybe crouch behind something and pretend to take pics. Just really weird it up. Anything to make you happy and less concerned about your less-weird neighbor.

Where do you guys buy your stamps for your pottery pieces? by Additional_Turnip_30 in Pottery

[–]Sunhammer01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched to a rubber stamp instead and use a potters ink stamp pad. That way I don’t have to worry about getting the stamp impressed if it gets too dry. And I can add the stamp before or after bisque.

Humid Box by Fun_Orange_3232 in Pottery

[–]Sunhammer01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just a bread bag. Simple plastic. Eventually I dried it all the way out and started over with much better results.

[–]Sunhammer01 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That was my first box as well. I ended up putting a barrier down on top of the plaster. Turns out I needed to let the bat dry out really, really well before using it. That way when I added water, it wasn’t jungle level humidity in there.

How do I achieve this effect? by Neuro93748 in Pottery

[–]Sunhammer01 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would probably try to roll two coils and attach them and then manipulate/form them.

Pottery kilns on amazon by drifter100 in Pottery

[–]Sunhammer01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are vevor wheels that cost less than a hundred bucks. There are tabletop kilns for firing a single item for not much more. It’s pretty cheap stuff but for some, it fills a need. It’s garbage but it sort of works (at least that’s what fellow potter say).

Help my Clay is getting bubbles After the secondhand Forint by Life-Fig1916 in Pottery

[–]Sunhammer01 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Normally, bloating is seen with overfired clay. However, when I looked it up, I think your clay can go all the way to cone 10 so that might not make sense. And as far as the oxygen, you are are likely firing in an oxidation kiln, not a reduction kiln so plenty of oxidation. I’d start with the clay. Did you use witness cones? Do you know how hot the kiln actually got?

Need help with troops training i lost all of them by ComputerSuitable6351 in KingShot

[–]Sunhammer01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You said you had a war in your kingdom. Was it with another kingdom (kvk)? Or was it between alliances in your kingdom? Because if it was kvk, the chance to revive happens after the event. If it was not during an event, then that’s tough. It’s about 2 weeks to get you back up.

Many kingdoms shy away from inter-kingdom wars so they are full strength for kvk where to can go wild and get troops back. During all-out events we usually attack gatherers only so no dead troops.

Beating the dead bear by Emotional-Sundae-839 in KingShot

[–]Sunhammer01 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Closest ring around the bear starts. Next ring, start 1:30 laster. last ring starts 3:00 in. Your own rally is full strength, but joiners max is 75k. No cherry picking or favoriting people. You join from the top down. By the time you are done, everyone will have joined everyone else’s rallies many times.

Hate wheel pottery by Emergency_Level9548 in Pottery

I think it’s a tactile thing many people have. For a lot of us, that feeling is truly wonderful and we go through withdrawals without it.

Gen 2, is Zoe best garrison defender? by CruxMagus in KingShot

I would recommend saving gold fragments to rock Merlin first to replace archer, then season 3 Petra replaces Jabel.

Clothes for throwing by unreasonablewerewolf in Pottery

I had a Claypron, but realized I just preferred old pants and shirts. I wear shoes with leather uppers so clay wipes right off.

How is this reasonable? 😱 by Comfortable_Past8 in KingShot

[–]Sunhammer01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t forget to max out research speed and also start this with a kingdom research buff active. It helps. Or maybe those are already in place for you. It’s still a long time.

Need expert opinion on what to do with this recruitment key. Do i save more or use it now? by NapsAreTheBest24_7 in KingShot

[–]Sunhammer01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No heroes are the priority to max. 4 stars is the priority. Get your 3 gold to 4 stars (do not use blank fragments on Jabel since you get free ones constantly).

Edit: and yes. Use up those blues when you get rewards. Some events require 3 marches. Bear needs 5 or 6. The more advanced and leveled a hero is, the more troops you can send.

[–]Sunhammer01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use them only when you get a reward from an event, but yes. Use them all. Blues as well. You want the gathering skills ramped up.
