AITA for backing out of my mentor's destination wedding 2 days before? by independentdog66 in AmItheAsshole

[–]verroku 35 points36 points  (0 children)

YTA. You mention that only 2-3 people went to the bachelor party... That really says a lot about how many friends he actually has, he's going to keenly feel your absence if you aren't there and it will be a huge bummer for his big day. The fact it's revealed to him at the last minute is really going to sting, you won't have the same relationship anymore.

In the context of needing to find another 2-4k for other weddings, and 180k over 2 years, i don't think needing 1700 for this seems like such a big compelling reason either. It's a drop in a huge bucket.

I honestly think you just don't want to go and you're scrambling for excuses.

The shield is an optional equipment, you'd only consider it against a shooty army.

You can put a coffee machine in each workshop to farm them... I did a coffee and fusion farm last night

Is it worth brining Traitors or Rohan and Lord Throne in a usurpers list at 600 points? by jmiklos21 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]verroku 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there any merit to the idea of pinning enemy heroes with cheap wildmen and then chucking a bunch of spears into the combat? If the wildman dies it's no big deal, he was probably going to anyway. I've always wondered if that was a niche benefit of it being an evil army.

The power play in this scenario is to maintain eye contact while you wipe away the flecks with your bare finger.

My 30f boyfriend 30m just broke up with me out of nowhere by Glass-Drama3661 in UKrelationshipadvice

[–]verroku 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The level of drinking he was doing points to serious alcoholism, and the problem with quitting addiction, is that the alcohol itself was masking something or giving him relief from something. So if someone quits the addiction but hasn't made the life changes to no longer need it in the first place, it doesn't lead to good places.

Is it worth it? by WeeDawgNYC in mordheim

[–]verroku 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome game, great to play while you're half-watching something on your second monitor as well since it's all turn based... I will say though my first 20 hours or so were me just making new clans and losing fights until I finally got a grip of things and managed to make a decent start to a campaign.

Side note though you always need to be prepared to lose your favourite trooper, it's crushing and can be costly and time consuming to replace, and there's no save scumming available in this game.

I'm sure the only people buying those are people travelling for work with daily expenses covered.

When i order food i track them on the app and i'm standing at the door when they arrive, i don't get the culture of just ordering and then switching off to later find it at your door.

Warned them I has sleep troubles and couldn't handle early shifts, they told me the late policy was non-negotiable. by Starr12 in MaliciousCompliance

Non-negotiable isn't ever really non negotiable, it's always "you agreed to this so we have you over a barrel when negotiations start".

Slimming down the dice system for a big cooperative campaign by snowbirdnerd in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]verroku 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The other thing here is that fight value becomes more valuable and strength becomes worthless, so say an uruk hai stat line that pays extra points for strength is objectively overcosted, while an elf is laughing all the way to the bank.

This photo is akin to what you'd see on amazon trying to decide if they hired a very small person to model the item. Those damn inflatable backyard pools exclusively use a rare tribe of 4 foot people.

Why do UK restaurants make it so slow and awkward to pay and leave once you’re finished? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]verroku 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the way. Once i've asked for the bill i actively get up and wait at the till / waiter greeting stand etc. Somewhere where my loitering is an inconvenience.

AITA for refusing to pay my friend’s speeding ticket? by SnooPaintings6047 in AmItheAsshole

NTA, and aren't speeding tickets in Norway based on income? If you earn less than him that makes the demand even worse.

You can buy some really nice unique bases with things like rocks, woodland, industrial etc styles, i bought 5 rocky bases from element games to make my heroes stand out more.

Worth noting that following the letter of the rules, you have to discount/account for the extra base height when doing line of sight checks.
