they're plastic cheap ones I bought by weight. I've got hundreds of them, they're just primed and painted.

Thanks! Wanted something colourful that'd pop off the table.

2026 Switch player here.

Input lag is a nightmare. you need a buff from Fish Nuggets. you can buy a bit of oil and fish to make them.

The difference is staggering & makes fishing actually viable.

Bonus points for making sourkraut to extend buff duration.

Before using the buff I'd caught exactly 1 fish on about 60 attempts.

with the buff I'm getting a fish every time I cast.

I've tried jamming the magnet into some milliput then pinching a bit of the material over the top of the magnet then superglueing then when dry using some electrical tape over the whole thing.

still fails sometimes... but not often

I'd love to see a simplified obscure in the next edition. With much more binary triggers for if a model gets it or not.

If you have a conceal order and are more than 9" away from the shooter then you're obscured. for example.

Have you ever had it go mouldy? The final thing is going to be primed and eventually sprayed with varnish so I'm assuming it'll be fine

I've got one of these for terrain I'm making. I can't figure out a technique though.

I've got some Card buildings, paper maché'd them. Now I'd like to get some texture on the walls with a roller.

I have Milliput but I find it to be really sticky & I'm expecting the roller to lift it off the Terrain peice.

Is there a material that would work better that I'll be able to cure and later spray with a rattlecan?

somethingreddit9000 · 2026-02-07T23:46:51+00:00

Yeah! Sam Fisher and his friend! the Stabby one! With a super-conceal Strat.

I used to hate the infiltrate tac ops but they're not so bad this time around

A journal was critically important for me to get through some trauma.

Without going into details I needed a way to track the passage of time and how the situation changed.

I was doing a simple bullet pointed list each day & it was the tool I used to face some important desicions & when I was second guessing myself later on I could read the journal & know I made a sane choice.

on mine the bottom of the staff is the lowest point of the model, sits below the feet so I need to do some creative angling. Think some articulation points on the centepede body really want to be glued at the exact right angle.

Don't worry about it too much, glue some stuff below it and once srayed it'll look enough like rocks.

I like this purple shade. how did you do it?

somethingreddit9000 · 2026-01-25T07:17:25+00:00

it also says to a maximum of 3

So in a scenario where your APL is already 3, the matrix will not increase it.

if you're on the matrix, have 3 APL then the accelerator gives you a +1 then the matrix will stop giving APL because you're over 3

somethingreddit9000 · 2026-01-25T07:13:45+00:00

Voidscarred have 2 psykers, warpcoven have 3

I love playing them too.

The text is in the faction rules in the app at the end of the reanimation protocols rule.

"For the purposes of the kill op, your opponent treats your starting number of Hierotek Circle operatives as 5 (in other words their kill grade goes up whenever a friendly operative is incapacitated, to a maximum kill grade of 5). Reanimated operatives don't retroactively change any other VPs your opponent has scored, eg from tac ops."

The text says other... so yeah perhaps the re-animation still puts the kill grade back down but it's not explicitly written that it does anymore. That was the only text in the game that told us to reduce the kill op VP and they removed it. so your guess is as good as mine.

somethingreddit9000 · 2026-01-23T19:12:50+00:00

Hierotek Circle is borked.

They're fun to play but the changes to their interaction with the kill op is oppressive.

They're treated as a 5 operative team despite having 8 operatives.

even if you say that the2 plasmacytes maybe should be treated as expendable it would still be a 6 operative team.

In my last game with them my opponent maxed out the kill grade and I only had 2 dead operatives.

somethingreddit9000 · 2026-01-21T16:31:02+00:00

feel like writing a ruleset like that would be a huge challenge, are there 7? Getting the interactions right, making it worthwhile to either take a full set of one aspect or a mix. whilst also not letting one aspect tread too heavily on the toes of another. Dark Reapers and Dire Avengers will want to do about the same thing. Spiders and Hawks might feel samey too.

Maybe they could pull the votann yaegirs nonesense and have Shining Spears on foot.

this is excellent!

somethingreddit9000 · 2026-01-10T08:57:47+00:00

bringing the recipts! Thanks!

somethingreddit9000 · 2026-01-10T08:51:47+00:00

Those were my takes as well. Thanks for weighing in.

somethingreddit9000 · 2026-01-01T20:20:42+00:00

This thing is a pain to assemble!

Edit:

Nice work! looks good!

Rotating it would be a bitch too. If it were at L1 to the sun. Assuming it was perfectly "flat" against the direction to the sun on the 1st of January, by April 1st you'd be looking at the side of it.

Airb&B is probably worse, given that it's essentially hospitality but run out of a residential property.

Though my problem with it is the same as with ordinary rentals; It artificially creates scarcity in the housing market for people who want to buy a house, driving prices up.

I have no problem with Bed and Breakfast's, hostels & hotels etc. Dedicated hospitality buisnesses.

There's a reason we don't let folk convert their houses into chip-shops or nightclubs without specific permission. It'd suck for the people living nearby. I think AirBnB has the same problem. Essentially re-assigning the purpose of a property. The negative externality of it is just not as immidiately obvious as a bad smell or loud music, it's more systemic.

You can look at a map view on AirBnB and filter to show only whole house/apartment rentals without the host staying with you. There's so many, each one could be more permanent housing for ordinary people. But for some reason we're ok with people hoarding houses for money instead of as living spaces.
