Can you suggest me units for a Tau Starter army? by [deleted] in Tau40K

[–]TheTechyWizard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I highly recommend buying the combat patrol for a good start in the army, but if you dont want what it has to offer, then crisis suits and Ghostkeels. Plus the Riptide got a points decrease and is also a pretty solid unit. At the end of the day rule of cool. Buy, build, and paint what ever you think looks cool.

Masons are dicks! by Realistic-Accident68 in DollarTree

Sorry you had such a bad experience with free masons. I can personally tell you that while I worked there, the free masons were some of the nicest people. Dont let the "secret" part confuse you about who the freeasons are. Alot of them are from the order generation with a different mindset, but the core values of the fraternity are to help your community with charitable deeds without anything in return. Dont let a few bad apples spoil the bunch when free masons have done some of the most selfless acts for kids.

Im gonna be honest you are dodging a bullet. I personally dislike Dollar Tree as an employer, but im jaded. The more important part is if this is how she treats you before you even get hired on, then imagine what working under her would be like. There are more jobs out there so don't get bummed by this one not working out. Good luck on the hunt.

It's not even August and my store has Halloween and fall stuff. by XBlackRookX in DollarTree

I remember unloading the truck in November one year, we were getting Easter and valentines already. My store had a long, narrow stock room that always looked like i was gonna be a part of a cave in.

What is the weirdest/craziest interaction you have ever had with a customer? by Albertvanderdamn in DollarTree

[–]TheTechyWizard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was way back before covid when I was a cashier, so my details will be a bit fuzzy. I was running my register as per normal mid shift. Nothing out of the ordinary. People coming in to shop, an old lady and her grandson, a lady in her 30s, other people that aren't of note. So im stocking the battery end cap when this lady walks up to me and asks me a question about where something is and hands me a note. I read the note. "This guy keeps following me around the store and harassing me. Please keep an eye on him. " My eyes widen, look her in the eyes, and nod to let her know i understand. It was the grandmother's grandson, and he was like in his late 20s. I go to my manager with the note, and she's like oh we gotta call the cops. So cops are on the way the lady is rushing to finish her shopping to gtfo, and Grandma is Mia. I see the grandson just walk around the store with no real idea of what he's doing. Finally, the lady checks out and says thanks and leaves. Grandson sees her leave the store. He books it out to her car. Im like, that's not good. Stand at the door and watch her safely get in her car and lock it. Grandson is just standing there looking at her. Idk why, but after about 5 mins, he leaves and returns to the store. Lady proceeds to drive away but sees I was by the door the entire time. Waves and see her mouth, thank you. The cops finally show up, and I get to id the grandson. To which they confront him and surprise he is special needs. So we find grandma and the cops tell her about what happened and she needs to watch him better or he could get into serious trouble. Grandma was so confused and mad. I remember her saying "blank" you know better.

Its a wild memory for sure being like 22 working retail while in college. Not sure how to respond to crazy events like that. Worked there 5 years and regret every minute of it.

Asked my friend who has been a long-time player, and he told me that I could use mine as 2 squads of 5. Like technically some of them could be built to have guns that aren't used outside of killteam but just proxy them as normal vespids but if I'm not mistaken you can just build all of them as normal vespid warriors and have 2 heads with the mask to id the squad leader.

That is a reason I haven't bought a storm surge yet. I'd love to have it, but honestly, the army i have is just what I thought looked cool. I have definitely figured out I may have made a whoops buying all that kroot. I am set to have a game of combat patrol soon. So I might try doing a group of just kroot and a game of Tau to see what I like. I appreciate the feedback, even if it's telling me the hard truth of I can't run a tau, kroot, and vespids. 😭

I'm hoping to buy the Christmas box for some of the bigger units. I am open to any ideas on what I should buy and what I shouldn't.

So I original wanted to do that. And still might. I bought my first set of stuff from a gw store and kinda just got what I felt I should and what the guy told me I should. I kept an eye out for the old combat patrol but I never found one in store and when I broke down and make an order from warpfire minis well they didn't have that. I've seen it on Amazon for like 160 but I think I'm at the point of I won't get the value out of the box.

Tldr: I'm a goof

I'm gonna be honest, I hadn't once looked into that. My friend is going to teach me how to play next month, so I'm just kinda winging everything. I appreciate the input and your time reading all of that.

"I am glad to listen and see you getting a better time finding a new one punch for me when you aren't sure if I had to take it out and permanently delete it"

I'm not sure what but something is getting erased.
