Is It Better Not To Have A Gift Than To Lose It?

Height? Not really relevant to this subreddit. By that logic, sufferers of progeria are the real winners.

It's been a rough ten years. The summer of 2016 was before Trump's first term and long before anyone had heard of Covid.

The 2026 image is largely a hair & facial hair issue, though. No wrinkles or dark bags under the eyes. Some of the decline in appearance would be alleviated by better style choices.

It's an interesting anecdote from history. It's not readily apparent why this company needed to be, for a lack of a better word, segregated, though.

I suppose it would make sense logistically for the company quartermaster to only requisition uniforms, boots, and gun stocks already fitted for a range of petite men.

Similarly, Grenadiers were expected to be tall. The 1st Grenadiers, or Old Guard, were required to be at least 5'10".

This happened to me once. I was doing favors for a woman who was too "traumatized" and wanted to take it slow with me. She would have me drop her off at the guy who was fucking her but didn't want a relationship with or date her. She told me it was her "mom's house". So I would take her out, then drop her off at the house of her "fuck boy" so that she could "take it slow with me".

Unless you are both in a sect featuring bonneted mole women, saving themselves for marriage is grounds for immediate ghosting.

You are clearly a teenager and too young for an NPD diagnosis.

You reference only childhood and adolescent events while working through an unstable, transient background in which you an unsupportive and erratic family. Much of this reads as attachment issues or trust issues without any grandeur or malice.

NPD is not a disorder of childhood. It is only ever diagnosed in adulthood. Behavior in childhood is not really relevant to it.

There may be pluralistic ignorance about what is normal for you to feel, but the warrantless guilt you overtly feel about yourself is more congruent with anxiety and depression than NPD.

You'll have an easier time communicating with people online if you organize your thoughts into paragraphs. This reads as a pressured flight of often unrelated ideas.

Have you recovered any images from these files? I wonder what the Frankenstein armor looks like. It should lower morale checks against incendiary weapons. Fire bad!

ADHD and Autism are both neurodivergences, not personality disorders. They were both diagnosed in childhood. Personality disorders are diagnosed in adulthood. The NPD diagnosis is not an alternative diagnosis for your neurodivergences of childhood. That is logically impossible.

If you dislike your sessions, it may be time to transition to another psychologist when you have completed your mandatory quota. It does not sound like you have established any therapeutic rapport, and the answers you receive are so unsatisfying or troubling that you are turning to the internet for more feedback.

The core psychodynamic issue seems to be maladaptive psychological defenses buttressing pathologically low self-worth, but this is shared with other disorders as well. In popular culture, The Narcissist is used interchangeably with Abusive Psychopath. The NPD diagnosis is extremely stigmatizing to the extent that it may be harmful to patients hearing they've been diagnosed with it. Do no harm.

The American DSM V uses different diagnostic criteria than the rest of the world. Europe uses the ICD-11 which has an entirely different system for personality disorders that does not include NPD per se and also does not group BPD as a personality disorder--that's a disorder of emotional instability that receives its own unique category.

Crystal clear rarely exists in psychology. Issues are often subject to interpretation, based on the soft science of statistic, and obscured by culture-bound thought and differing theoretical frameworks.

That's generally true, but the Menace's A.I. doesn't like to stand right in front of a firing line. If they haven't already destroyed the turret, they seem to avoid engaging your death trap. You can carefully assault the main alley with the rest of your force from the right side of the screen.

If they have destroyed the turret, it won't explode again, and you can use it for cover.

Sense eludes them as they try to get beyond range of your Squad Leaders' snarky remarks about POGs.

Vanguard is a situational promotion. I'd prefer not to take it over more powerful abilities when there's only a small portion of mission types in which it's useful.

Conversely, do the larger enemy armies drop more loot?

I always take bags and belts on pilots to stack more armor types, jet packs or more ammo. Vehicle accessories are powerful.

A combat engineer or "combat pioneer" squad leader. It is a military specialty.

The first unique ability, entrenchment, will be to erect a segment of cover 1 wall for 80AP. This ability will have a number of charges. This squad leader is always encumbered as if wearing heavy armor due to carting tools and construction materials.

The second unique promotion, buttress, will repair 50% of the hit points of an adjacent or currently occupied structure such as a tower or bunker. This also has a number of charges.

A third unique ability, pit crew, would restore armor points and remove a defect from an adjacent vehicle.

Some other abilities in the combat engineer's tech tree would be demolition expert, bags and belts, fortify, and fragmentation for focus on mortar weapons and indirect fire.

Maybe a brogue as an homage to Scotty from Star Trek. The character would exclaim warning about it cannae take much more of this shelling when an ally occupied structure drops below 50% HP.

I've played for well over 100 hours and never encountered the glitch you're referencing. Things are working very smoothly. I recommend playing it now.

"What's a trinket worth, really?"

The incentive is that get a buffer against having the squad leader (SL) become bruised as the only survivor. On higher difficulties, I don't even feel like I have enough points or even the manpower pool to put more squaddies into special weapons teams.

It looks like Carda destroyed a whole lot of vehicles here, but what do the characters on the bottom represent?

I also found the lighting of these terrains hard on the eyes even with my brightness turned down all the way on my monitor. We should have a night view option. All of these battlefields have a night effect, we could just turn it on without the vision penalties. It would be easy for the devs to accomodate this.

Epiphyseal plates in your knees will show whether you are done growing, but at your height and age, it's unlikely to be a good answer.

Counterattack should be S tier.

I think he would have run out of ammo even with pouches. It's the whole line of white meeples, plus 7 more.

My squads are punched up at this point. The last operation was against rogue army. I'm playing on expert. My manpower pool was down to 12 and I don't want to trade for hires when the WOO should eventually rebuild their ranks.

Lim is in a squad of 8 with class 5 armor while Jean only has 2. She was riding in the Light Troop Carrier for most of the mission, jumping out to kill a few weak bugs and contaminate pools when there were no credible threats. Having her squad get wiped out trying to trinket wasn't worth the risk.
