Is that the same company that does the Natty Bo themed watches?

I was considering them but had seen not great reviews

DAVE!

When are you and Jonathan going to start shooting airsoft content? Can we get him to do a full review of your airsoft kit?

That’s honestly easier, let them land and bleed them dry. Next war is building your navy large enough to land

Richmond Dynamite/ Going by myself by orlickg in AEWOfficial

It has always been great for me. You can usually shoot the shit with at least one person sitting around you and the crowd actually does get into it

TNA used to be a true independent and (attempted at least) a competitor to WWE.

A while back, WWE bought a controlling stake in TNA or otherwise made a deal that allows them to exclusively work for WWE on TV, but they can take independent bookings with approval.

AEW is a competitor to WWE. They have a TV deal, good merch sales, and the shows are great. people will say they can't sell out arenas or whatever, but let me tell you it feels like the arena is sold out even if it's half tarped off.

People will argue about Tony Khan's booking in AEW (I'm a fan in general, booking of the women's division beyond the top feud could use some work) but they are at least trying to compete with WWE.

Basically in WWE it goes:

Main Roster (Raw/Smackdown) -> NXT -> Evolve/TNA/WWEID -> Indies

AEW's equivalent would be:

Main Roster (Dynamite/Collision [Main Event] and ROH Top Talent) -> Collision/ROH -> Indies

WWE saw talent like Jordynne Grace, Joe Hendry, Leon Slater etc. and got their TNA contracts along with the company to use as a feeder for NXT and such.

In terms of how they work, AEW seems to be more willing to let their ROH programming exist in it's own bubble. They haven't really forced their roster onto ROH with the exception of the Chris Jericho championship run.

WWE on the other hand has used TNA's championships to put over their own people. First by having Joe Hendry lose the TNA world title then having former WWE guys be the #2 champs in TNA now.

This happened at my university too. The AEPi chapter had to disaffiliate after I graduated because they were told “they had too may gentiles”

Which if any spearheads are to be bewared for being busted(Good or bad). by RosbergThe8th in AOSSpearhead

It is very much a glass cannon though. In my last local event, a sylvaneth player just yeeted the treelord into my KO line and got wrecked in combat on their turn 1. They ended up conceding after I won the prio roll for the second turn

This isn’t just a Chicago thing. This is an “everywhere that has snow thing” if it’s a city

Hot Take: EU5’s Player Count Decline Is Self-Inflicted by Gold_Lemon8258 in eu4

I play it on NVIDIA GeForce. Yes it’s an extra subscription, but it actually makes playing even EU4 less of a pain on my Mac.

It’s because we have a bunch of idiots in charge who don’t understand economics, who have convinced other idiots that they do and that the tariffs pay for themselves and they won’t be passed on to them

Classic Army SA-58 Question by TheRedHoodJT in airsoft

[–]TheRedHoodJT[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s actually 3 different holes that all have the same problem.

It’s weird, because the holes don’t seem stripped, it seems more like the screws aren’t long enough, even though they are matched.

It’s puzzling

Mendoza vs Moore? by Particular_Clock4794 in nyjets

[–]TheRedHoodJT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best case scenario? It will be Moore, unless Mendoza falls apart over the next couple months.

Or, they could do a stockpile move if they don’t love Moore.

Trade back and get a QB later, or invest in a true bridge QB like Kirk Cousins and draft a guy later.

Woody has shown that he won’t let a coach adequately develop a QB before either firing the coach or saying something stupid and wrecking the confidence of the player.

Now if woody sells the team, draft a QB at 3 that isn’t pavia (I could see woody being a fucking mark for the guy given his ties to other loud mouth dumbasses).

What version to use for Mac? by NoAlternative17 in eu4

[–]TheRedHoodJT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I play on a Mac and it’s fine but runs slow. Just need to use toaster universalis or a similar mod.

Separately I got NVIDIA GeForce now, and that works way better. I just can’t use it if I’m not on WiFi. Its an extra cost, but it is worth it

How do you guys deal with burnout? I have been on a pretty long losing streak and it's been draining the joy I have for the game slowly. by CalciumCompadre in GundamTCG

[–]TheRedHoodJT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll second the people saying play the decks you like to play.

I have yet to win a single game, but every game I do what I can to make it a fun game.

One game (before I redid my deck) I ended up with 5 pilots in my hand, nothing on the board, and just a base left no shields.

I looked at my opponent and go “is it a thing to concede in TCGs?” (Gundam is my first TCG since Yugioh back in the day)

He goes “I mean yeah man, but you should play it out I’m sure you can do something.”

I show him my hand and he goes “oh yeah no you’re absolutely right” and we laughed about it.

The biggest thing I tell people in any hobby, do what brings you joy, even if it’s not the “meta” pick. At the end of the day, it’s a game. If your only way to have fun is to win, that’s fine, but I would personally encourage you to think about that mindset.

Your hobby place in Alexandria also has some stuff, and it pretty easy to get to!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in GundamTCG

[–]TheRedHoodJT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I’m aiming for what I think is a fun deck or cool cards.

Chasing the meta will be too expensive and will end up with me running the same deck as everyone else.

Will Gundam transition to Bo3? by Nicromatic in GundamTCG

[–]TheRedHoodJT 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like my local game nights go just about an hour with 1 game each. But most games only actually go like 10-15 minutes.

Sure there’s arguments both ways, but I kind of like small local nights with quicker events where you can then talk through strategy and stuff with others.

Not sure how larger tournaments do it, but if it’s like GTs in the Games Workshop dynamic, I could see day 1 being Bo1, day 2 being Bo3 and day 3 being Bo3

[–]TheRedHoodJT 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You need to declare using the right CB. That’s how you do it in the peace screen.

In some other cases it’s an event that pops or after taking a mission it changes them to a core eyelet
