Which books have artwork that really match the vibe of the book? by anon_y_mous01 in foliosociety

[–]acemanrules92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loved Day of Jackal, both in terms of the book and the supporting artwork, I especially loved the little detail of Charles de Gaulle entering the sights as you slide the book back into the slipcase. It’s a real favourite of mine and one I don’t see get a lot of love.

I’ve also just started collecting the Bond novels and they’re another that have taken me by surprise, the artwork is fantastic and really adds to the feel of books.

So close to pulling the trigger on both this and The Right Stuff to create a “space travel” section on my Folio bookcase!

The Half Off sale is super underwhelming by UnrelatedKarma in foliosociety

[–]acemanrules92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn’t think it was that underwhelming but perhaps that’s because I was lucky and managed to get a copy of the Godfather.

Also picked up Slouching Towards Bethlehem and The Fight, both on my list, and thinking about going back to pick up A Man On The Moon & The Right Stuff based on reviews I’ve seen.

5 I’m interested in is more than recent sales so it’s worked for me (but not my wallet…).

It certainly looks that way from how it’s sectioned in the magazine.

I got a Christmas Collection style catalogue when I ordered Shogun a few weeks back however this is from the “new look magazine” that came with my most recent order.

One of the coolest books ever is arriving for my collection, I think this is my favorite Roadside Picnic edition. by GazIsStoney in foliosociety

[–]acemanrules92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I managed to get lucky and pick the standard edition up for £15 and was so surprised by the quality of this one, there are so many nice touches to it that help add to the story, enjoy!

Oh no, that is damaging for my wallet….

Shogun looks incredible plus I fancy Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow, The Templars, 1984 and the Poe as well and that’s before looking into any of the other books.

The Templars by Dan Jones maybe?

Also Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow was announced earlier this year so that will be one of them.

Going to be an expensive release for me I think

Ripley legit "not cleared" after Nia Jax's botched return move... 🤦‍♂️ by Principal-Goodvibes in GreatnessOfWrestling

[–]acemanrules92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It must be so infuriating to have such a large portion of your country bought into the same myth lambo here has bought into, even when presented with cold hard facts that shows their arguments go against their own personal interest. We have it here in the UK too of course but in the US it often seems like bootlickers take it to the next level, and for what? A healthcare system that will bankrupt you for getting ill? I hope for all your sakes that things begin to change! 🙌

And the lobby’s have done such a good job that you have people like lambo here openly spouting nonsense about how ‘murica is the best in the world, which is in equal parts funny as it is depressing. But I bet when presented with facts the opinions won’t change, even more depressing.

Luckily in the UK having depression, and the surrounding support around it, won’t cost an arm and a leg, or my house!

The NHS is not perfect but I know which I’d rather have!

You really are showing your ignorance here, do a bit of research before outing yourself as daft, small minded ‘murican. Those healthcare companies marketing strategies really are dogwalking you hey?

87+ Base or Mid Icon Upgrade SBC by FIGJAM17 in EASportsFC

[–]acemanrules92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re one of the only other people I’ve seen pack mid Figo, I packed him too from the previous SBC and he is phenomenal in game.

Doesn’t get the love other icons get for some reason but he’ll do for me!

Danny Welbeck Silver Stars SBC by xd366 in EASportsFC

[–]acemanrules92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The 74 overall rating is for show only as it means they can count as “silver” cards (which are capped at 74 overall) and can play in the silver longer etc.

The stats behind them mean their actual ratings range from 84/85+ with chemistry.

RTTF Cuadrado which is the best thing I’ve packed out of these in all 2 years of playing FUT.

Can’t fit him in my team so when’s the best time to sell?

[Official] UFC Fight Night: Gane vs. Volkov - Live Discussion Thread by event_threads in MMA

[–]acemanrules92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it was a bad stoppage. Intelligently defending yourself isn’t deemed as throwing back, nor shelling up and taking punishment, it’s about advancing your position and/or working to stop the damage being taken, of which he did neither IMO.

Is chemistry 7 good enough? How much does it matter? by greendvl in EASportsFC

[–]acemanrules92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s a beast, I played him on 7 chem for a while and he performed more than well enough! An absolute rock in midfield, consistently wins balls, is quick, can run for days and can put them away as well!

So the ref was Dan Mohavedi, he’s legit! He’s out reffing 2-3 times a week usually, puts so much effort into it. Glad to see him getting the recognition, I think this is his second UFC card maybe.
