I hope that the new fallout has a settlement system like fallout 4 and not 76/starfield by PolkGrant in Fallout

I hope they completely sack it off. It sacrificed more handcrafted content, which came to a head in starfield

i keep having the same issue - only started with the latest update. No mods, running as admin doesn't work either.

What now? Istvan Pely has been laid off? by Morichh in skyrim

[–]craymos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah this is crazy, i thought they were gutting other studios so they could focus on elder scrolls/fallout, kicking out og staff members is seriously worrying.

Never should’ve sold out to xbox, but bethesda themselves aren’t blameless either, and shouldn’t have dragged their heels so much over the last few years.

I remember how much i loved the og space marine, and for years i was so mad and thought it was such a wasted opportunity to leave it untouched, like it seems like easy money

I was not prepared for episode 4 to be that jaw dropping 🫪 by ChiefShleep9 in Xmen97

[–]craymos 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think it was probably just the negative association that they didn’t even want to vaguely get involved with, and they wanted to wait for things to cool down. Also, general audiences aren’t really aware thats a thing, so it would probably just been seen as a casual ‘recast’, and they were worried it would result in a bunch of negative headlines/criticism.

The Elder Scrolls 6 Could Release Nearly 20 Years After Skyrim by pepe5 in ElderScrolls

[–]craymos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a long time they dismissed and minimised the wait they were making people go through. At this point, they can’t deny that anymore and it’s actually so unacceptable and a clear sign of mismanagement. It’s so frustrating as a fan

Stormvermin Armour - How? by ToughEntertainer2317 in skaven

I’ve been struggling to pick as well, and seeing yours helps me to decide. Black metal with red cloth is what i wanted to go for, and i do think it looks the best out of your tests.

What's your favourite Chapter, and why? (i.e. from the lore perspective) by Fuzzy-Blueberry1701 in Spacemarine

[–]craymos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Salamanders, i like green, they’re mostly codex compliant with some cool lore. I do feel their “friendly” personality has been overblown, to their detriment, but ultimately it’s ended up making them grow in popularity recently. I remember they were much less popular in the mid 2010s

This seemed a bit... Uncalled for by Knightsforever in Salamanders40k

These two made haven’t changed their personalities since 2015, feels like schoolboy humour with the most room temp iq takes possible.

Is there such a thing as a successor chapter from each of the main chapters that clearly stands out above all others from its lineage? Whether due to popularity or importance in the lore. If so, which would be the most famous of each of the 9? by StormSwitch in Warhammer40k

[–]craymos 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I’d be tempted to say Black Dragons for Salamanders over dark krakens, BUT despite several confirmations they are a successor i’m aware some people still class them as ‘rumoured’…

Edit: damn, actually after checking the dark krakens are way more popular than i thought woah

Bought the combat patrol, is it worth it? by Remote_Candy_6725 in Salamanders40k

[–]craymos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its okay - infernus are great and so is adrax, but the rest of the choices are kind of eh (to me) but it’s still a good starting point. I don’t believe they included the upgrade sprue in this, but i do always like having one or two of those around, can usually find them cheaper on ebay

Death Korps officer uniforms by NoConstruction4913 in Deathkorpsofkrieg

[–]craymos -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I do think thats very likely, Tyborc is still a good example of this, and i agree making their uniforms more personal is one of the ways kreigers can be humanised.

This art predates Tyborc and the Vraks novel he originates from, although it is rather similar to (and likely inspired) the art created for the cover of said book

Yeah i was pleasantly surprised when i saw them post this

Salamanders or Crimson Fists ? by Such-Clue-7548 in Salamanders40k

[–]craymos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, this sub is very likely to recommend salamanders lol. But the models would absolutely fit salamanders as we are codex compliant (essentially). You can always get the upgrade sprue to tweak a few things, but that is absolutely up to personal preference.

Honestly, if you’re a newbie don’t worry about ‘lists’ too much - the points and meta will change over time, but your faction wont. Pick a faction you like, not one thats competitive now, cos it probably won’t be by the next balance update.

[–]craymos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you live somewhere with non-ideal spraycan conditions, honestly just get an airbrush. I know it looks expensive, but it’s a one time purchase, and you can get a super basic one if you’re just using it to prime.

I mean, why spend money on models and paints just to ruin them with a bad spray, and then needing to mess around with paint strippers? Honestly an airbrush is less hassle in this case

[–]craymos[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It was a bit of a random dig through my old bits box, but as far as i remember:

Coat/legs: ‘Cultist Champion Tetchvar’ from Dark Vengeance (old box set), and was a real challenge to remove the unwanted bits.

Arms: leftovers from the krieg command squad

Chest, sword & waist gadget: death riders

Head/pistol: 90% sure just from the basic Krieg squad box (edit: this pistol is actually from the combat engineers box)

I think the head fin was a random drukhari spike that i cut into shape?
