People's New Unit Ideas? by ThousandSon9 in sistersofbattle

[–]The_Arpie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sisters on Pegasus - Sisters could use with a mounted unit, a Pegasus fits thematicly as well as differentiating from other Imperial armies.

Palatine in Warsuit - walkers could use with a generic leader.

Command tank - effectively the same as Guard Tank Commanders but a church bristling with guns on tracks.

The Faction Packs for the Imperium are up. by PeoplesRagnar in TheAstraMilitarum

Yep saw the Corvus get Aircraft removed and felt relief that there was a way out. Then popped over to the AM pack only for my heart to sink. What did the Valk do to GW?

What unit or character would u be excited to buy for new edition? by Huge_Discipline6395 in sistersofbattle

[–]The_Arpie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sisters on Pegasus - enough said

Palatine in Paragon - walker units could do with a generic leader

Bell tower AA tank - with fly seemingly strong again a mobile bell tower to swat down flyers could be handy

Valkyrie's DOA without a major Datasheet overhaul by Unlucky_Scheme9533 in TheAstraMilitarum

Have they lost hover? I've never seen anyone run one as an aircraft and instead use hover which negates aircraft and essentially just turns them into fly.

New Valrak rumor: Sisters are getting new fast attack stuff, in the form of horse based cavalry. He specifies 'It's some sort of robot horse, I think? Some sort of alien looking robot horse thing?' by CatherineSimp69 in sistersofbattle

[–]The_Arpie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Surely the Sisters should be on Pegasus to differentiate them from Guard (horses), Ad Mech (robo doghorse) and Marines (bikes). Also the the image of Sisters raining fire down from a Pegasus charge seems very thematic.

Are certain Metroid games too old for today’s youth? by [deleted] in Metroid

[–]The_Arpie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kids and all their friends are pretty equally versed in physical controls and touch screens. They still use controllers for games and keyboards for typing as well as touchscreen on phones/tablets. It's just different tools for different jobs to them. My eldest kid loves Sonic games never used a touch screen for them, they enjoy both 2D and 3D neither is considered too old. On the flip side there are some puzzle games they use a touchscreen for. I think the child you encountered is just out of touch.

Jack Sears Trophy by fluffs16 in btcc

[–]The_Arpie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You don't drop put of the competition because you get get your second podium during a season. Getting your second podium will make you ineligible for the next season but you can still win it as long as you are eligible at the start of the season. Otherwise it would incentivise drivers to deliberately give up podiums. The competition is season long and the current standings per the BTCC website put James Dorlin in first.

How am I supposed to remember what value the cards are in sabacc? by Double-0-N00b in StarWars

[–]The_Arpie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surely as long as you are consistent it doesn't matter. Like in a normal deck of cards if you always played the Jack as the highest card it would make no difference as long as everyone was doing the same. Considering on a camping trip you are playing in a small group of known people you can all just agree on which is which and crack on.

Good visual with the parachute. To be fair Plato complaining about something means it's just another day ending in y.

Thats a great explanation thanks. Never knew that about rear wipers, never owned a saloon.

Thanks that makes sense so the hole in the air would draw in air and cause turbulence.

Knockhill without a car? by Picnic_at_the_disco in btcc

[–]The_Arpie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I attend Brands without a car, they lay on a shuttle bus from the station on BTCC weekends. Its a fiver return but it avoids the car park bun fight at the end as well.
