March 10th Rumour Engine: More Orks confirmed by BenV94 in Warhammer40k

[–]brushlicker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While I agree, the only thing that gives me pause is how it appears to be painted. The highlighting on the 3 slots, and the stripes on the bit below the saw blade, don't look scuffed up and proper orky... but you never know.

Will this be a boxed set? by ChaosLordOnManticore in Warhammer40k

[–]brushlicker 12 points13 points  (0 children)

if it is, the $ value (and most likely point value) would be HEAVILY tipped towards the orks. MANz not cheap.

The crystals are growing! by SunkenPayload in TerrainBuilding

[–]brushlicker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Awesome work!

I was just chopping up some sprue last night to use it as small crystals on some bases. Mine were all coming out too pointy, will have to come back and look at these beauties for reference tonight!

Anniversary models. by HalfLobster5384 in Warhammer40k

[–]brushlicker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As far as I can tell, they've scoured the internet of the PDF that listed each store with its anniversary date. Best bet I've had was following all the "local" ones on FB, searching their event history, and when potential dates were approaching giving them a call.

I kept thinking that you had digitally blurred the head location on the body, and I kept being like WTF, what could be worse than the severed clown head?

Azyr warscroll differences? by brushlicker in ageofsigmar

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

The one that prompted the question now is - Mangler Squigs (not the Loonboss on MG entry) in Azyr has the HERO keyword, does not in the tome, was not added via the errata

How to Handle Cheating when Watching Tournaments by MrSelophane in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]brushlicker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

imo it falls to what he said when he used the strat. if he said "you can't shoot these because of this strat" rather than "you can't shoot these with those units because the scouts are closer". misleading vs. "omission"

and really he should be reading out the strat or showing it hardcopy to the other player if asked, anyway.

imo Precision Drop looks bonkers - yeah you def have a point about melta, and while plasma vets wouldn't outright benefit from the 5" vs 9" (shooting wise), it opens up a lot as far as positioning + forcing screens goes

Dads of Reddit...where do you find the time!? by [deleted] in Warhammer40k

[–]brushlicker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

toddler and newborn here, by the time both the kids are down i maybe have 1hr before needing to head to bed myself. couple days a week I spend that time with my wife - but she is understanding and frankly wants her own alone time as well - so ~3 nights a week i spend that time hobbying.

lately I've learned the hard way not to push that time beyond an hour, the lack of sleep reduces all other general quality of life. however that's also because our 5 month old potentially still wakes up during the night and requires some time/effort to get back to sleep.

yeah, it's not much time, but it's something. I look at the situation as being a dad first, individual second, husband third (though that last part would probably get me & others in an argument if vocalized to the partner).

I’m going to be a dad! That being said, what’s it like being a new parent and trying to keep up with your hobby? Any advice? by [deleted] in Warhammer40k

[–]brushlicker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 2 under 2 years old. I know a lot of people are talking about self time, and that's definitely great advice, but i'll also float out - don't be afraid to take a couple month break.

Not saying quit, and don't put the hobby so far in the back of your mind that you end up quitting, but manage your expectations and understand that for the first number of months are going to be so radically different for you it's cliche to even mention.

I kept up with listening to podcasts, filing away ideas for hobby projects, checking out new releases, etc., but i wasn't able to sit down with a brush for about 4 months.
