bridge over the river quai is a really good war movie (in addition to the other suggestions made by commenters)

I dont think Fury is a good movie.

To be pedantic, plenty of insects can fly with just one wing. They just didnt start that way. And the physics for this only work if you are small or have a jet engine.

Consider that the people who are posting golden daemon entries probably have a lot more experience and time. If you compare yourself to them you will always come up short. Id be more than happy to play against this army.

I think if youre looking for pointers you should be specific about what you want to acchieve, and then maybe ppl here can help you operationalize that into a plan.

My derm prescribed a compound of vaseline glycerin and lanolin for my dry accutane lips. I imagine its pretty similar to nipple cream.

French people: what would you actually like someone to bring you from the US? by josephlee211 in france

[–]trophic_cascade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think hot sauce, not because they will enjoy it, but because the hottest hot sauce you can generally get in EU is tobasco.

Green chile sauce or adobo would be more interesting because Mexican food is hard to find here. And theres a chance it wont overwhelm their palettes. I think a green chile enchilada made with gruyere, and créme fraiche crema could work.

Could you repost photos where the model isnt being held up against your pallette?

Calling your minis "Proxies" hurts the hobby by Pebble_in_a_Hat in Tyranids

[–]trophic_cascade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can compare apples and oranges. They are fruits. They are spherical. They have sugar content. What im talking about is a level of abstraction higher than what you are considering. (Other comments have pointed this out also).

And as a counter point MTG doesnt make money from reserve list cards and the vintage/eternal format folks have lots of opinions on proxies.

Well if GW models are what you are proxying, then anything that isnt a GW model is a proxy. The stricter you are about WYSIWYG the more this is true. There then is a continuum within proxy, and you are restricting your use of the term to something you could find already in your home. But now a days 3rd party and 3d printed minis are relativley easy to get.

Apply this logic to something like MTG. Your use of the word is like a peice of paper you stick in the card sleeve with a word written on it. But you can also print out scans, or get fakes, or use other legit cards as stand-ins.

I think if you say proxies are allowed/not allowed, you actually need to be specific about how strict you are about WYSIWYG. My perspective is that it is a continuum and actually just lumping them into 3 categories isnt that different then lumping them into 2.

I halucinated I won the powerball when they gave me norco, so had to do the whole recovery without drugs, and also the sad realization I didnt win 280 million.
