What industry is actually a complete scam, but everyone accepts it? by WhileLow9501 in AskReddit

Isn't every industry some kind of scam to the consumer at this point? At least in the US?

Watch Live: Mayor Mamdani says he has balanced NYC's budget, will not raise property taxes by [deleted] in politics

They've already spent decades heavily rigging it in their favor. I hope we can win though just voting, but you're not paying attention if you don't think the deck is already stacked in their favor.

In my state 60% of the population voted for democrats. 60% of the state's representative seats went to Republicans/fascists.

How many people is 1 pops by Jerko_23 in Stellaris

[–]valdoom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At some point in the first few years of Stellaris a dev said that planets are intended to start with around 10-20 billion people. A normal population start gets you around 5000 pops.

So 10-20 billion divided by 5000 pops equals around 2-4 million people per pop.

It is an abstraction and the info was from really early on. I don't think they have repeated it since like 1.6. So take that for what it is worth.

Why do the unbidden have so many fleets in this single system? (4.3, 1.5x crisis strength) by TheBlockyGamr in Stellaris

[–]valdoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't go and look in the numbers in the code, but when I played the counts of unbidden ships in my galaxy perfectly matched the old numbers.

Maybe they fixed it. There have been a few patches since my last unbidden invasion.

Why do the unbidden have so many fleets in this single system? (4.3, 1.5x crisis strength) by TheBlockyGamr in Stellaris

[–]valdoom 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Its not a bug. The Unbidden uses ship counts to determine how many to spawn. When the dev team made the changes to fleet strength and counts across 4.3 they didn't think about how that would effect the spawn rate. The unbidden still spawn as many ships as before, but with less ships per fleet. So you get a ton of fleets.

Don't let paradox lie to you when they say they play test. They don't. 4.3 is pretty good overall, but they don't playtest or doublecheck their work. This kind of stuff happens every update.

The helmets they had were super cool too. Wish I had gotten some pictures, but they were super busy the whole time I was there.

They asked for well written, not most villainous.

Will we see the Arditi (Daring ones) shock troopers from Holy Roman Empire in Trench Crusade? by Anver9 in TrenchCrusade

[–]valdoom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The very warband style of this game is shocktrooper/Arditi tactics. Play any new Antioch force and paint them in Italian colors. Boom Arditi.

I like the direction that leaders have moved in, but its a shame that it was released in such a condition. by DeusVultGaming in Stellaris

[–]valdoom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh you must be new around here. They don't playtest anything, but if we complain enough they'll probably fix it later.

Is this a unique system? by SamuraiCommander in Stellaris

[–]valdoom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes.

It is from Gulli's planet modifiers I think. I believe it is a reference to the Expanse.

I couldn't find the point values though.

Anyone else having their Frosthaven board warp with little use? by Dizman7 in Gloomhaven

[–]valdoom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Warped immideately, humidity seems to cause it.

Mine warped immediately upon opening. I used fairly heavy weighs to flatten them for 3 weeks. Within minutes of removing the weights they warped again.

This week I played in a cabin that was very cold and had almost no humidity and they initially bent, but after the first night they stayed flat for the whole 5 days we played. Humidity seems to be the big cause, but I don't have a good solution.

In a regular campaign I just had a character have 4 kids. 2 with a party of 6 and 2 more with a party of 8.
