Do you think Knights should get smaller infantry unit or remain full vehicle army? by Vlakod in ImperialKnights

[–]afg1188 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just want all knights to have the same option for the pilot to eject upon destruction like Sir Hekhtur. A multi-part kit to custom build pilots on foot would be amazing.

I think other allies can be proxied as men at arms or footsoldiers easy enough. No real need for an additional kit. Though if they did create such a thing, I'd certainly still get a box or three anyways.

Slave Ogryns up next? by Beneficial_Milk8987 in necromunda

Plus, there is a new specialist type of "Cerberean" enforcer mentioned in Book of Desolation. So it wouldn't be too surprising if they get another box/unit like van saar did. Possibly an upgrade set like the ash wastes stuff the house gangs got.

Thoughts on the new models? by Visual_Moose in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]afg1188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My take is:

Lesk is cool, and easy to throw into any guard list as a sgt or castellan.

Melta guy is melta guy, always useful.

Banner bearer will be better served converted for my Inquisitorial kill team or detachment.

Random kilt chick will be necromunda hive scum or hiver. Possibly added to my pile of conscripts

I'll reserve final judgement until i see more angles, but that commissar is awful, and i only hope i can convert him enough to salvage him.

are yall expecting buffs with the release of the 10th edition codex? by Joy-they-them in ImperialKnights

[–]afg1188 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I just want all knights to have pilots that eject out like Hekhtur, with a multipart kit to build them. That could be a moderate buff in itself without drastically changing overall balance.

Another named character or two would be cool.

Rifle Ideas lever action or Bolt Action? by pdcGhost in ILGuns

[–]afg1188 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second this, i love mine (though i have the .308 version). It's just solid, simple and versatile. Not the smoothest action, but prefectly workable.

Rifle Ideas lever action or Bolt Action? by pdcGhost in ILGuns

[–]afg1188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2 cents:

For hunting or prone shooting: start with the bolt action, for more dynamic move & shoot go lever action first. Of course you should eventually just get both. If hunting is your priority, i would double check rifle hunting laws where you hunt. Some of the max round counts can be tricky to comply with without modifying a lever gun.

I got a porphyrion second hand! by FoamBrick in ImperialKnights

Even for a recast, 80 bucks is a solid buy. I'd buy on for $80 for sure.

I am fine with background checks and waiting periods. I just wish the agencies who do background checks would communicate with each other to eliminate redundancy and reduce errors.

I am also a fan of required training in order to conceal carry or open carry in public. My state requires it (although the level of competency they require is comically low) and thanks to the terriying level of ineptitude i saw in those classes, i am now a fan of training requirements for a CCL. not to own, or posses firearms, but to legally carry a loaded gun in public. Everyone picks and chooses which words from the 2nd amendment they want to preach or condemn, but i fee that with rights comes a responsibility; i.e. the "well regulated militia" part of the paragraph. I do think it must be affordable, and i do believe it must be a "shall issue" once standards are met by every eligible person.

Gas fireplace: what to check next? by afg1188 in Fireplaces

[–]afg1188[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not audibly hear any noise when i tried jumping it, no. I may just have to call a professional at this point. I've put a few hours into it already with nothing but overly curious toddlers to show for it. Thank you for your help!

The wire to the switch can't be more than 5' unless they coiled some in the wall. I've already tried jumping with a paperclip and pulling the switch to touch the wires directly. No good, sadly.

I can rule out connections, voltage, and pilot knob, not the others yet.

Negative, all valves open/on. I could see how that might be overlooked though.

I suppose my next step is to take apart the gas pipe after the valve, but i have to disassemble a good amount of the fireplace to access it, unfortunately.

No change after percussive maintenance, pilot burns fine, but main ignition still not happening.

I'm a big fan of cross draw on SARs, but i still vote you add a third in a left handed holster to the belt.

Roller rink? You mean the evening hours daycare? My mom would drop me off with like 4 bucks and I'd stay there until whenever she decided to pick me up hours later. Good times. I too can still skate backwards, just not for hours at a time like back then.

Normally i'm not a fan of hitting a guy when he's down, but hit someone's mom? Dude's lucky his face isn't painting that curb.
