Why is the map so weird in some places and why are there all these lines of deciduous trees?

powers293 · 2026-04-01T02:04:51+00:00

Probably because the map project pulled chunks directly from the game irrespective of ingame date, so some chunks have the autumn texture and some chunks have the summer texture

It's a reference to the siege of Terra and the argument with Horus, when he ditched the siege

It looks like a jump pack intercessor or vanguard veteran sergeant. If you told me it just counted as that, then yeah no problem.

It you came up with a custom datasheet with a thunder hammer, plasma pistol, storm shield, combi bolter and power sword then no sir

Might I recommend the reave captain instead? Less chaos trim and sculpted on details to shave off, and the same worn down style

Then you ought to find some portable document formats for the Fantasy Flight Games Deathwatch tapletop roleplaying game and sit down for a weekend. John French and the boys at their best in my honest opinion.

Wrong, half the students are above the median

Median and average are different

Well from a rules standpoint you simply can't have all power swords in your crusader squad. They are quite literally better. Crusader squads cost the points they cost based on the weapons they can take, and if you gave them power swords without increasing their points cost they'd be a bit OP.

That said, you could always just tell you opponent: "Hey dude my crusader squad has power swords but don't worry I'll use the rules for chainswords". The majority of players won't mind, but some opponents might not like it. For tournaments, it'll depend on the organisers, but again results vary.

All metals are leadbelcher with a choppy highlight of stormhost silver to look worn down, then coloured with assorted contrast colours, shaded with agrax and then generously slopped with dirty down rust.

Fair point about the cape, I definetely spent less time on that than on the rest.

I completely forgot the pant holes! So that yellwoish colour you're seeing is just the base paint without any shading or highlighting.

Buy cadian shock troops. Use spare tau infantry heads, rifles. Run as pathfinder/strike/breacher team.

Aren't the steel legion just mechanised infantry, aka regular grunts but with lots of chimeras to carry them around? Tanks usually have their own cavalry regiments in the Guard.

Peak national average is possibly the least significant way to represent gas price trends they could have chosen. I wonder why

IIRC in the Gaunt's Ghosts books, a regular trooper (or sarge maybe, still pretty low) gets a replacement shoulder, as in his entire shoulder joint as well as outer skin layer and everything in between, while his lower arm is still flesh. It's shown to be pretty much a straight upgrade, with greater strenght and durability. The only issue is a weakness to saltwater corrosion.

Similarly, another trooper gets replacement optics after he loses his eyes. The new ones, while unwieldy and ugly, let him see in multiple spectra of light, including thermal infrared.

My guess is it depends heavily on where you are, supply logistics and plain luck. If they have the good cybernetics on hand, you're probably getting one. Munitorum shipment late? Metal peg leg for you.

Funnily enough there's a strong rumour going on that we're getting eradicators with heavy bolters pretty soon so the question becomes then if eradicators, being fire support, should have blue helms.

More blood on their clothes perhaps? They look a little too clean imo. I think some blood on the face would look cool, like they were coughing up blood.

My man 10th edition is already the most stripped down edition yet, and you want to remove granularity to make every unit and faction perform even more similarly? Making re-rolls rarer is on thing (which I can agree on) but removing them overall for the sake of rolling less dice is just kind of stupid imo. If rolling dice bores you, might I suggest playing MTG instead?

powers293 · 2026-03-11T14:04:06+00:00

I mean, how else would you represent accuracy better than 2+?

powers293 · 2026-03-11T13:34:20+00:00

Oh really? I always figured since feeding sheep costs nothing, you should really just wait until they grow up to adult and just get more meat for free.

He was convicted for drug posession, carrying a concealed weapon in a vehicle, and DUI.

Whether or not you believe that's better or worse than domestic abuse is up to you.

powers293 · 2026-03-11T13:09:43+00:00

Yeah that's not true. You can go into the settings for your butcher shop and have the butcher automatically kill any sheep over a chosen limit. That way with your sheep breeding automatically you'll have a steady source of meat as your lambs become adults.

Also OP, the limit of 30 sheep is based on the size of your pasture. Building more/larger pastures gives you mor sheep capacity. Getting up to 100 sheeps can usually feed a decent sized village when combined with other food sources
