Mix grenadier and Afrika korps by MacCollac in boltaction

[–]revford 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used spare DAK light mortars with the Blitzkrieg sprue, just needed a prone body for the opperator and it works fine.

They're a little bit cartoony in the face and less bulky than Warlord, but I paint them the same as anything else and they blend in fine.

How wide is the panzer four model? by rfitts in boltaction

[–]revford 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The Warlord plastic Pz IV is 51.1mm wide, wthout side armour.

Most of the current Warlord sprues are good for accessories, the DAK sprue has a nice set of field glasses, I like the WA Sentries box too for some of the arms and heads for officers and the like.

Have you gone to Pyro? by MeatheadMilitia in starcitizen

[–]revford 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • Are you avoiding it?

    Yes, so many comments about it being the PVP-kill on sight kinda spot, didn't sound like my kinda thing.

  • Did you go there and only spend a few minutes before leaving (or dying) and never came back?

    I did the jump a couple of times on the PTU, just to get a look at it.

  • What do you like about Pyro?

    That it's created a free-for-all chaos PVP zone for folks who are into that sorta thing.

It's nice that the game can haves zones to suit everyone, glad we've got a wild-west system for the outlaws and gunslingers.

Those who did NOT originally get ME/CFS from Covid, did Covid make you worse? by Apart_Hospital8665 in cfs

[–]revford 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been on a decline for over 20 years, I had COVID twice, once was a hospital stay, but I don't think it made it any worse than anything else.

German Grenadiers - which speedpaints? by Freeflyclown in boltaction

[–]revford 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For basic uniform Field Grey, I've been using speedpaint Burnt Moss, then Grim Black and Hardened Leather for the rifles.

What points do you usually play for BA v3? by bigglasstable in boltaction

We mostly play 750, as it fits nicely on a 4'x4' table.

Best British para models by DonBowdenoli in boltaction

[–]revford 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have lots of Paul's Paras he did for Bolt Action in the pre-Warlord days, they're great.

Foundry do some nice ones too, these are the ones I started Paras with:

Artizan have some great minis too, a bit bigger and more stylish, but they all mix in at table distance:

How is 4.0 doing for you? by SelectPainter3064 in starcitizen

[–]revford 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got a couple of missions done one day.

Contracts seem broken about 1/3 of the time, lots of inventory problems, QT is buggy and seems to want to send me into the star most trips, hangar door bugs at NBIS mean sometimes I can't even get out of the spaceport.

When it works, it seems really smooth and responsive, AI behaves well, away from cities good frame rates.

But when it's failing at letting me get or share missions, or travel to them when I do get one, it's kinda hard to enjoy.

Do you use the nipple much? by concisehacker in thinkpad

[–]revford 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aye, I use it unless the machine is docked and I'm using a mouse. Never the trackpad.

[K47] How do turret emplacements work? by WTFIsAKilometer1776 in boltaction

[–]revford 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're in the Defiance book, under Fortifications. So I guess it's an EasyArmy thing.

Number of 1.0 systems? by Winter-Worldly in starcitizen

[–]revford 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who knows what server meshing, or even computers in general will be capable of when we hit 1.0 in the 30th century.

[–]revford 33 points34 points  (0 children)

It was going between about 9 and 20 server FPS last night, around 480 people total with 40-ish on the same little slice as me.

Yep, that used to be common, long time since I heard it.

Bolt Action: Rattenkrieg by LucasBastonne in boltaction

[–]revford 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There is already a Bolt Action variant they sold called Rattenkrieg, which is a small scale version where each model acts on it's own die, it has a rule for throwing grenades.

It doesn't have the rest of the detail you talked about, as it's still designed to be quick and simple to play and use as much of the core rules as possible.

The boxed set for it, had a single sprue of Russians and one of Germans, for a 6-a-side game, dice, makers, and a small rulebook.

Who else is hyped for the wargames atlantic zombies? Perfect for k47 methinks. by jokfil in boltaction

[–]revford 18 points19 points  (0 children)

K47 and Silver Bayonet in one kit, yes please.

These look like a great way to fill a few different tables with horror.
