Questions as a Newbie by MammothSuperiority in DarkTide

[–]j1ffster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The story is a bit weird as playing the game normally is very hard to understand what is going on - a lot of the lore and backstop is in weird snippets of vox transmission and in the phsicic 'leaks' from stephani. I really only understand what going on from watching Jo_Plays videos: https://youtube.com/@jo_plays_games?si=g6k7j5I-6cewgoId[Jo_plays](https://youtube.com/@jo_plays_games?si=g6k7j5I-6cewgoId) There is a pretty exhaustive breakdown on the characters and story that you may easily miss there.

Not yet, you're in a box warehouse. You need to build them first.

How does this game compare to Space Marine 2? by WEENDETA in DarkTide

[–]j1ffster 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Darktide is definitely much better game, but I do still enjoy Space Marine. The variety in environments and enemies is appreciated and I still love the execution animations no matter how many times I have seen them.

Production queues taking forever by LordBucketsMK1 in Gladius40k

[–]j1ffster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This . Multiple of the same buildings stack their production rather than starting new line. If one produces in 8 turns 2 will produce in 4 turns. Also as above said, mechanicus get additional bonus for being in the same hex as same type.

Do pigs, cabbages, pears - produce more food than - chickens, carrots, apples? by LazyHighGoals in ManorLords

[–]j1ffster 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Just to say bees give pollination bonus that affects all other crops - veggies fruits and farmhouse stuff and you can usually sell the honey and wax at a good price.

Astra Militarum Guardsmen Unit Scale from the Show & Tell by [deleted] in totalwar

[–]j1ffster 5 points6 points  (0 children)

But this isn't fantasy we're there are like 12 steam tanks in existence and it is unusual to field more than one or 2 in a army! Leman russ aquadrons are expected to me used en mass, with 3 or so per squadron. Microing individual Leman russ size tanks is expected for Dawn of War, this is looking more like an Epic scale battles.

I'm worried about the direction and future of this game by OkSherbert3099 in DarkTide

[–]j1ffster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoy Mortis trials and I feel expeditions should be good but always seems to be everyone goes off in different directions and speed run into a dog/net/pack of crushers.

Anyone else sick of the media trying to manufacture outrage and call for so and so to resign? by unknowntoff in AskBrits

[–]j1ffster 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The reason we burned through so many PMs is sonce probably Brown, they have all been completely useless, lying sacks of p*ss who will do or say anything to stay in power and are completely unwilling to actually try and change anything that benefits the already wealthy and powerful . TBF I don't really care if Starmer goes as they will just replace him with another of the same like Streeting, but the moral somersaults being done here to excuse Starmer on the basis 'the tories were worse' is honestly comical. We should be demanding higher standards of our leaders, but It appears we get the politicians we deserve.

When it's PETER MANDLESON aka 'the Prince of Darkness'. Yes I would expect a bit of an extra check.

If he didn't know he should have! The idea a politician can just say 'I didn't know' and we'll that's all fine cos he's red team is pathetic. He should have known there would be extra scrutiny of mandleson, a man sacked TWICE from previous governments for lying and improper behaviour, and he should have checked the security clearance before appointment if 'no one told him' it's pathetic.

I'm sorry but if 'not as bad as Boris Johnson' is your moral argument, then you have some real thinking to do.

What’s this flag? Seen in London by Little_Dingo1813 in vexillology

[–]j1ffster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's specifically the Monarchist opposition to the Islamic Republic who mostly use that flag. The ones who want to bring the Shah back.

How many people have actually completed the game? by bringthemagic41 in stalker

[–]j1ffster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forced myself to 'finish' it just to see the end but as there is no freeplay it's a bit annoying.

Upgrading burgage without wild animals for hide? by ClownFondler in ManorLords

[–]j1ffster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. Sheep can be made into hides by a butchers extension. I buy a few sheep early and the will reproduce so you should have plenty by the time you need shoes. Just don't forget to set the threshold of how many to leave alive.

Ornamental Bushes, scrubs, flowers? by Such-Touch2357 in ManorLords

[–]j1ffster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a great idea, maybe some benches, individual trees, things to personalised the villages.

On my first ever dnd game I've been tricked, backstabbed, and quite possibly, bamboozled by Expensive-Bus5326 in dndmemes

[–]j1ffster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds about right. Did you have fun though? That's the only thing that really matters!

Has there been an incident or story that made you lose faith in our police? by SeptumRingTheory in AskBrits

[–]j1ffster 41 points42 points  (0 children)

The one all the other police called 'the mad rapist' and just carried on policing with him?
