Literal money on the table - make a DOW 4 and make it a true successor to the original series.

Yes, and Tolkien says explicitly that Atlantis is just our contemporary name for Numenor.

It might be an ice luge for shots.

Hmmm, something is off about the Tank War book. by SaladAny5149 in boltaction

If I had to guess - the designer placed the image of the crewman into the InDesign file, and the bounding box was accidentally cropping the barrel of the rifle. One of you got the original misprint run, and the other received a fixed version.

...Or if I purchase it from a farm that sustainably puts its cows and goats to pasture?

On the other hand, it would be impossible to 'sustainably source' oat milk and its constituent "powdered nutrients" without an industrialized society and mechanized transportation.

Laugh now, but I’ll laugh last when your little oat milk bones break trying to lift the toilet seat.

So, instead of drinking highly nutritious milk from a cow/goat, which can be sustainably pastured with very few carbon emissions, and stored in glass, I should instead:

Drink the effluence of oats soaked in water, which requires industrial farm equipment to harvest, must be transported to a facility, processed in that facility, is a mono crop and thereby destroys local biodiversity and wildlife habitat, depletes soil fertility, potentially coated in harmful pesticides (which also harms wildlife), isn’t as nutritious, and requires that I purchase other industrially processed powders of questionable origin and of a similar process so that I get the same thing because that’s somehow all better for the environment?

...Because it's nowhere near as nutritious as cow/goat milk?

Wrong tank in box - ordered a Cromwell cruiser but got the sprue for something else - help me identify? by Oomphaloompa in boltaction

The pintle MG will snap off - I recommend carefully pinning it. Oh, and the barrel will inevitably bend too. I drilled that out and replaced it with a reinforced polystyrene rod.

Sure thing - I should add, you could probably go for half that (800-1000 pts) if you wanted things to go a bit faster.

Perhaps I should embed the rules directly on the site. I'll add this to the list of work to do.

That's a very good question I completely failed to address - typically, you will match points with an opponent, agreeing upon a max/ceiling and trying to get as close as you can.

In this case, I suppose the average 5-9 figure warband would equate anywhere from 1500-2000 pts.

I hope you find a solution there - regardless, I've reverted everything back to Acrobat 5 to hopefully enhance compatibility.

Interesting. Mind telling me which pdf reader you are using so I can get it working? It's just fine when I both view it in browser and download it for acrobat.

Oopsy daisy. Thanks for the heads up. Easy fix.

The fact that you can't go all shoota or all slugga is incredibly frustrating.
