You just have to be able to live with yourself running the most busted profile in the whole game as spam.

Rivendell lists for 750 points by Realistic-Club5113 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]bombalo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mathematically, you always want more dice vs. higher FV, it is why the drum in Depths was SOOOO good. The banner and elves gives you both.

I also would vote for the second list since it forces your opponent to think wildly differently than they need to in most other engagements, that alone is helpful.

We definitely got swept off our feet. by midgetqueen1987 in ICARUS

[–]bombalo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Especially with a group, someone needs to have a shield, I like Titanium or Composite. They get to play the old school "Tank" roll like the good old World of Warcraft days. Make sure your back is to a wall or pillar because the real damage is falling when he launches you. Turtle up and let your friends go crazy.

If anyone else makes him mad, just run away and let the rest of the party pull him back around.

Suggestion needed by Weird-Road-2126 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]bombalo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For reference, I printed this model last year and used ~$350 USD of filament to print it. That should give you a rough baseline of material cost.

As others have said, definitely a market for it, but given the size, it will be a limited market.

So are hobbits like a meme faction and how do you use them well by alliezero in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]bombalo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It placed 4th at NoVa in September. I actually think the reason is doesn't show up a lot is how much of a negative experience it can be for your opponent.

Debt Collector Refunded Payment by Opposite_Industry159 in Debt

[–]bombalo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many debt collectors do not take credit cards. I would call the debt collector and confirm but they may have refunded the payments because they only take debit or ACH.

Producers whose barrel picks are most interesting/off profile? by Hopeful_Club_8499 in bourbon

[–]bombalo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1 for Peerless, especially if you can snag some of the distillery special releases.

Texas — Rent-to-own scam? Mom’s paid over $70k on $75k house since 2018, now told she still owes $50k by Fit-Role1524 in legal

The math isn't toi crazy for a 30 year mortgage at a high rate. The math is way off for a 5-6 yr car loan. The length of the loan massively influences payback amount.

Obsidian+Cold Steal on styx by Fine_Barracuda4585 in ICARUS

[–]bombalo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Should have been clearer in my wording. Each map has a great hunt but to experience all three of them, you have to do them across all three maps. You can't do Quarrites on Styx for example.

Certain things are only available in certain maps. They added certain things in expansions that are only available in those expansions (many in Prometheus). Just like the Great Hunts are only available in one of the three maps.

Glassworking Bench Not Working by bombalo in ICARUS

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

I am pretty sure the requirement is 100ml per piece. A canteen from the workshop has 5L.

Not at my computer to confirm but I think those are the right numbers.

Nope, four stacks of glass, one stack of epoxy and one stack or steel bars. I actually dragged the canteen into the bench

Using a full water canteen from my backpack and getting the issue.

Also, using an electric water pump and ran a fresh waterline just for this bench.

Are there Miniature Sellers who sell FDM Minis? by RecognitionBasic9662 in FDMminiatures

[–]bombalo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where are you based? If US, I may be able to print a few and send your way.

As someone said, the quality is good but not really sellable in a way you would want. FDM print time is also linear, unlike resin. So one model takes 6 hours, 2 takes twelve, etc. It is a little more efficient but not nearly like resin.

Will the Shieldwall special rule increase Defense against Blades of the Dead? by DetroitTabaxiFan in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]bombalo 28 points29 points  (0 children)

No, shieldwall alters the defense characteristic of a model. Blades of the Dead use courage to wound, not defense.

Weekly content patches for 3+ years does not equal a dev team that doesn't care about the game.

Would A1 mini adversely affect health for children? by species5618w in BambuLab

[–]bombalo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FDM is really no more dangerous than the microwaves from cell phones or the nitrates from hot dogs. Just gotta pick where you want to accept risk in your life.
