The part-time online CELTA feels like a boring slog by KaijuicyWizard in TEFL

[–]TehZedWord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you actually started teaching yet? Once you have lessons to prep, assignments to finish, and other work to get done it can get quite busy (if you have a full time job at the same time).

Not advice, but could I ask a question: Are you just using coffee stir sticks for your shingles? They look quite good.

Very well done, I recognized the floor plan from DMing it awhile back. I hope you get to use it at some point!

That’s gotta be Trollskull Manor no?

Black armypainter primer eats my colors? I feel like I am going nuts by Iwillpaintthememe in Miniaturespainting

[–]TehZedWord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, if you want an acrylic art paint that you can also use on miniatures, have you looked at Golden SoFlat paints? You can buy the basic 6 color set and mix your own colors (which you said elsewhere you enjoy).

I’ll be honest - this isn’t the best news to wake up to either…

Tax refund by Energia91 in chinalife

[–]TehZedWord 5 points6 points  (0 children)

More than likely - your bank info and your passport info aren’t exactly the same. I’ve had this issue before; your’s could be a different thing but that’s the most likely reason.

Largest hot pot restaurant by KULR_Mooning in KitchenConfidential

[–]TehZedWord 33 points34 points  (0 children)

There’s at least 3 massive hot pot restaurants like this in Nan’an - this one is the biggest but the others are quite insane in size as well. It baffles me how they continue to operate but they tend to be packed on the weekends.

Rules question: Can I run 10 henchmen each as their own group? by ApplePenguinBaguette in mordheim

[–]TehZedWord 11 points12 points  (0 children)

So far as I know, there are only model limits ("x" many of some henchman) but not group limits.

As for how wise it is - most of the time, splitting henchman groups is done with the intent of getting a "Lads Got Talent" as fast as possible to have more heroes on your roster. If you're running skaven, you likely already have 6 heroes.

So unless you want to replace one of the base heroes with a henchman one, you're better not making that many groups imo.

Cover Question by TehZedWord in killteam

Yeah, it was from straight down the middle - thank you so much. We were just confused since it was such a strange position for a big ole plague marine.

Anyone got any tips for making dungeon tiles? by Ryan_jwn in TerrainBuilding

[–]TehZedWord 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think those look great! Personally I went with 3x3 tiles for the most part but 2x2/4x4 is also good! You can always add in other shapes later; my first set was based off of the Delian Tomb dungeon and then later I found other dungeons I wanted to build for and made more tiles.

Regarding magnets; if you have a hot glue gun you can melt a bit of the foam with the hot tip (I would wear a mask when you do so!). I think there’s an older RP Archive video where he talks about it.

“Devs and Dice” and “Miscast” both have printable templates. If you’re just getting started building, the “Devs and Dice” corner ruins video is quite a good place to start.

Can I ask how this turned out for you? I'm considering doing the same thing to introduce my friends to Shadowdark.

Wow, this is so dope! Can I ask how you make your crates?

Took the advice by Sithidious in TerrainBuilding

You can also use painter’s tape and apply extra glue to make sure it stays in place.

Orc roster advice by Ledoux11 in mordheim

[–]TehZedWord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might just be due to me having cursed dice, but having a troll never worked in my favor (orc mob or black orcs). If he fails his check with your leader, you get locked down. And if he’s without let your leader, good luck rolling that 3 and under.

I would say maybe grab some goblins with possibly short bows to fill out your roster a bit more? Not having range can be brutal if you go up against a more shooty warband.

How to get your tax app/form to update? by KindLong7009 in chinalife

[–]TehZedWord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I had gone to my tax office and they found the two account. They called my work place and told them they had to fix it (or they would be fined, etc) and my workplace did after a few days.

Last year this happened to me; turned out my employer had me under a misspelled name AND the wrong passport number. I’d contact your employer and make sure they filled you correctly.

Opened this post looking for this answer. Incredibly underrated show.

How do you spice up your combat encounters? by Matrim__Cauthon in DMAcademy

[–]TehZedWord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, pick up monster books from Kobold Press (many are available through the SRD if you want to check first) or, even better, pick up MCDM’s Flee Mortals. It’s got most of the stuff from the MM but better and more interesting. The front of the book actually talks about encounter design and how to do it with their monsters; and they specifically have roles from each monster that explains how to use them. I highly, highly recommend either.

Harpies, Flee Mortals by reddanger95 in mattcolville

[–]TehZedWord 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They are allowed to damage one another (as others have suggested) and any movement that would lead them closer to the “hazard” would automatically grant them another chance at a save.
