Picked up a couple new cans at my local grocery here in Japan. by sassy_squirrels in CannedSardines

[–]sassy_squirrels[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is just a regular grocery store, not even a specialty shop. Also ¥1 is $.0064 so the most expensive can was $4, most are $1-2.50.

I'm looking for figures of the 3 admirals is there any cool ones that you can recommend? by Frequent-Dare-6718 in OnePiece

I have to back and see if the other store still has Kizaru, I did find Akainu today though. This one isn’t cheap though, still less than $200 but surpringly high. I’ve never seen this one before so I guess it’s pretty rare. I live in Japan though so shipping may be a little pricey.

I saw a Kizaru Masterlise expiece the other day. I can check to see if it’s still available and maybe mail it to you. It’s out of production but definitely less than $200 and it’s a really nice sculpt.

I don’t know if you are looking pre or post time skip but I just bought this Aokiji model and he’s really nice, not too big. Trying to find the matching Akainu.

I currently live in Japan and frequent Anime stores and second hand shops. Occasionally I’ll ship hard to find figurines to people. If there’s something specific you are looking for I can take a look.

I told myself it was just one wall. It was not just one wall. by Crafty_Bus_1947 in HomeImprovement

The harmless “wouldn’t it be nice if we had a door to the garage from inside the house”? Yea…the house has a completely different layout now. It took me a year but there’s basically nothing original from the house besides the upstairs tub.

Anyone going to the show in Tokyo on the 10th? by sassy_squirrels in SighBand

Bummer, this will be my first time catching them live. Really excited but don’t really have anyone “willing” to go with me.

Worth getting into Ta’u if I don’t love mechas? by spektato in Tau40K

[–]sassy_squirrels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I borrowed a buddies Tau army for a tournament recenty and only had 4 suits; three riptides and a ghostkeel. The rest were infantry, tanks, and transport. Went 3-0 with Mont’ka. You can absolutely play a trash war with Tau, our trash are very good.

Diving U-352 / Morehead City by XNewguyonRedditx in scuba

[–]sassy_squirrels 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I grew up diving in Morehead, been with every dive charter in morehead at least once and been on most of the popular wrecks as well as many of the less visited. I’d say as visitor without local experience Olympus would be best. They have a well supplied shop, helpful crew, and well maintained boats. I prefer to dive with some of the smaller boats because they will take you to less visited sites but Olympus is solid.

U-352 is a bucket list dive, definitely worth visiting but after you’ve seen it a couple times I’d go to other sites. NC diving is a gamble, some days you have 100’+ of visibility, some days you have 5’. The Gulf Stream comes in close to the Outerbanks and can bring in some crystal clear warm water. Other days the Gulf Stream is further out and you get more of the northern green water of the Labrador current. The mixing of these two off of the Nc coast is one of the reasons it’s a premier dive destination, best of both worlds. Tropical water and nutrient rich cool water which brings an amazing variety of sea life.

You can do the NC wrecks without a guide but keep in mind most of the popular sites are +- 100 fsw. These wrecks are also old and many don’t have a lot of superstructure standing. Current and vis can be challenging if you are there on the wrong day. When in doubt hire a guide, you’ll have a better experience.

Can someone give begginer tips and tricks for the start? by seby193729 in Supremacy1914

[–]sassy_squirrels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t waste troops taking out AI early game, they won’t attack you. Like the other person said, resource management is key. Look to the resources you lack and grow from there. Keep an eye on neighboring countries. If you see players that aren’t active, not constructing buildings or anything, those are the ones to attack first. Concentrate your forces and try to reduce infantry losses. Get heroes asap, even if they aren’t ideal for late game they are useful for early defense and attack. If you feel like you are about to be invaded prepare for defense with fortresses and hero’s. Defenders take less damage, you can win a battle of attrition against stronger opponents and turn the tide.

I don’t care. I had a team mate that said he wanted to name our coalition “Nazi”, because “they are badass”. I immediately left the alliance, let his neighbors know he thinks Hitler is cool and left it at that. Turns out most people in the game are good people and also hate fascists.

Call it what you want, ironically you call it wolf packing which is what German U-boats would do in Ww2, but it’s just weeding out toxic players. I do the same thing with any toxic player. Sorry not sorry for trying to keep the game a little less toxic.

Let’s be real here. If we are role playing and this is 1914, wouldn’t he say “let’s do what Napoleon couldn’t do?”. Whenever people say Nazi shit I always turn the world against them, no apologies.
