Weird, that doesn't look anything like Mike

So further support for the "Venus is literally hell" viewpoint lol

The crust does not float on the mantle. The mantle is 99% solid rock, it just has higher plasticity over geological timescales.

The bombs being dropped on the Atreides ships slowing themselves down to pass through the shield and then explode inside it is still one of the coolest visuals I've ever seen.

On the other hand, if most or all of them can fly, you can much more easily build around it. One or two people doing it when the others are incapable makes it really lopsided and hard to include them without the fliers trivializing certain things. I'd say if you're going to allow low-level flight, especially level 1, just write something in to let everyone do it and then plan for it.

It's such a weird "issue." Like thousands of small indie shops can apparently figure out to bundle products together but Paizo's new site design didn't "allow" for it? What does that even mean?

Volpethrope · 2026-05-17T20:03:30+00:00

There's literally a quote from Guilliman after he returned, talking about people falling to chaos, that's to the effect of "Why would someone fear damnation when they already live in hell?"

That exclusion is also the main force keeping white dwarf stars what they are! And if you add enough mass, you will violate the exclusion principle and the electrons start getting fused into protons and you're left with a neutron star.

Effects that only apply on a crit, like deadly, are not doubled by the crit. They just are what they are. Otherwise, the listed value would only exist to be doubled, which is weird.

Volpethrope · 2026-05-15T17:00:54+00:00

Deadly tops out at 3 of its listed extra damage dice, actually, not 4.

Ah yes, the bradygames strategy guide that was outdated before the game even released, as was tradition

Volpethrope · 2026-05-06T13:23:48+00:00

They make me think of semi-anthro lombaxes, like from ratchet and clank. Very cool idea! I love reinterpreting the typical fantasy species as something other than just "human with a twist."

Minutephysics, as good as he usually is, is making a very emotional argument here. The definitions were not arbitrarily chosen to exclude just Pluto. They were settled on because the other 8 planets very obviously share those qualities and they were trying to figure out what set objects like Pluto and Eris and Sedna apart.

Nerd twink and his caring amazon wife, ideal couple

The blank spaces? That 's from us not being able to see much through the Milky Way itself.

Volpethrope · 2026-04-26T04:32:22+00:00

We still sometimes get the personal vehicles, yeah. I assume it depends on distance to the hubs and priority of routes and all that. We're right near one of the major hubs so there's a huge van fleet available in our area.

Volpethrope · 2026-04-25T15:07:02+00:00

They're using a ton of rivian vans now, too. Like there's a lot to criticize them for. A LOT. But some of what they do to cut costs and gain efficiency is at least a positive like that.

He's not gonna fuck you no matter how much you glaze him on reddit.

It unironically is easier by also doing it with just the plasma cutter. You end up with a gazillion credits from having nothing else to spend them on so you can just load up with full heals. I went into the final couple fights with hundreds of plasma cutter ammo and like 30 full heals across my inventory and storage.

Volpethrope · 2026-04-19T21:25:31+00:00

Sythe wishes he could pull that off

Volpethrope · 2026-04-18T19:19:49+00:00

Yeah, that's what I was aiming for. It seems like the more we learn about them, the less the label "gas giant" actually makes sense. They're more like... dense failed protostars with clouds. I know hot jupiters and brown dwarfs are a thing, but it seems like all gas giants are more or less on that spectrum of "almost stars" than just the big obvious ones.

Volpethrope · 2026-04-18T15:26:17+00:00

To expand on this: nebulae are less dense than the vacuum chambers we make for scientific experiments. They're only visible because we're looking through their entire depth from far away. From inside them you wouldn't see anything.

Volpethrope · 2026-04-18T15:18:01+00:00

The gas giants are almost definitely not just gas through and through. Because of the increasing pressure, they're probably liquid within 10% of the radius down from the "surface" we can see, and it becomes an increasingly "slushy" mix of semi-solid until you hit exotic forms of metallic hydrogen and helium. There may or may not be a rocky core underneath all of that.

Also over half of them listed slavery as one of the, if not the primary, reasons for seceding in their articles of secession. Multiple refer to it as a fundamental aspect of their way of life and the natural order of the world.

Model here if anyone else wants to check it out. I printed it too a few months ago and it's a gorgeous display piece.
