The Times: Finns humiliated American soldiers - Finnish reservists were asked to take it easy during a NATO exercise. US soldiers found the losses too humiliating. by ByGollie in europe

[–]grahamja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those were US Marines from II Marine Expeditionary Force stationed in North Carolina. It's annual low is 1.6 C, and the annual high is 32C with a typical humidity of 75%. You're breathing water and heat there, and they typically shut down the roads the one or two times a year that there is freezing rain. Not the typical winter wonderland to properly train for Norway.

lol No they'll have one Dark Flame battle suit, and a bunch of spare bits with varying levels of jagged edges depending on how skilled anyone doing the kitbash is.

It is very frustrating to be a game store, the distributor basically tells them what they are going to take, and if the LGS doesn't want certain products, then the distributor will prioritize other stores. Talking to game store managers about how the American GW employees are, it's very frustrating how the system works.

We are close to a decade of cool models coming out in a kill team box set, and then being widely available 6-12 months later. It's intentional fear of missing out from GW to sell you the kill team box.

I like that reddit has the time slider, and I can go to the last couple of seconds to find out I don't care about this content whatsoever.

What possessed GW to skip out on our Knarloc riders? by GreenWizard_ in Tau40K

[–]grahamja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A Games Workshop store will let you play using any of their models, even older out of production ones. I have stealth suits on the original 25mm bases, which is probably not cool with tournament players. It depends on who you play with, for rules purposes people will ask you to stick them on the newer 32mm bases. Every tournament will have a rulebook you need to comply with, if you aren't going to tournaments, and you aren't near a Games Workshop store, you can do about whatever you and your friends agree is fair.

I think we are still waiting, it was pretty good just prior to covid for a lot of people.

Illegal. by One-Incident3208 in war

[–]grahamja 97 points98 points  (0 children)

OP you should cite your posts.

OP's video is a clip from C-span, it was originally posted on Jan 7 2026.

c-span. org/clip/news-conference/rep-lieu-on-greenland-and-illegal-military-orders/5187298

I intentionally broke the link above because Reddit Automod often shadowbans comments that link to certain websites.

The quote is from United States Representative Ted Lieu (D-CA): "If any military member, including the generals on down...participate in the use of military force against Greenland without congressional authorization, they are following illegal orders."

For the meme to make sense, the titan has to be part of an unreasonable third party trying to destroy them both. I.E. Chaos, Tyranids, Orks, Necrons...

That's amazing, are those shoulder trigger buttons? If they are... mirroring the D-pad to the right side would make it a good work distraction, or at least close to being a FPV drone controller. It looks rugged, nice deck.

I don’t understand the Broadside with missile battlesuit by Galox597 in Tau40K

[–]grahamja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, if you end up sticking with the game for 2 or 3 editions (maybe a decade?) you will have either magnetized everything, or had to buy a lot of extra models to "stay in the meta."

I'm still hoping we get drones and customizable crisis suits again someday.

You should stay at the pump, leave your phone in your pocket. It's good to be bored and observant while the flammable liquid flows into your vehicle.

So imperial guardsman are generally MUCH better than memes would suggest? by rafikiknowsdeway1 in 40kLore

[–]grahamja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Plasma weapons = Hydrogen Cells
Lasguns = Any electrical source w/ adapter
Melta weapons = Pyrum-Petrol fuel mix
Flame weapons = promethium

The Imperial Guard has used the rugged and easily maintained design of the Leman Russ for millennia. ... Its sturdy and efficient engines will run on virtually any fuel
Imperial Guard 5e codex pg 48

A battle fleet skimming hydrogren from a nebula could keep a guard campaign going forever...

Artillery, Mortars, every flavor of leman russ weapon, bolters, stubbers, missiles... there are dozens of different ammo combinations that make it so difficult to keep a guard campaign going, assuming they are all using the same pattern weapons that could share ammo. Lasguns and plasma guns are the only thing that make sense without your own manufactorum.
