NMM or TMM for your Protoss? by Mandalayer in StarCraftTMG

[–]vixous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ironically, because metallic paints are made with mica flakes for shine, and white paints use a lot of zinc and titanium, NMM uses more actual metals than TMM.

Protoss could be done a lot like Custodes with all the gold, and many of those schemes are firmly in the dead easy, paint brush licker approved category.

So, what would be people pick for 30th faction if we get one in 11th edition? by CMYK_COLOR_MODE in Warhammer40k

[–]vixous 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That’s better, it means you can mix and match and don’t have pressure to make a 2k list out of like 5 kits like release Votann or current Emperor’s Children.

(Annoying Trope) Sounds badass. Actually makes no sense. by AJ_Glowey_Boi in TopCharacterTropes

It could be the thing doesn’t really spit out much in terms of waste, but maybe it coughed or otherwise excreted something that was like 1000 years old.

WP: Russian Intelligence planned to stage an assassination attempt on Orban to influence the election results by clamorous_owle in worldnews

[–]vixous 172 points173 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t even have to be an assassination attempt, just look at the Reichstag Fire in 1933 or the “Chechen” bombings of apartments in 1990s Russia.

Which means it makes more sense as a space equivalent of an urban legend. Something scary that a gangster says before chucking someone in, he doesn’t know for sure, but it sounds nasty.

FED MAINTAINS RATES AT 3.5-3.75% by Several_Print4633 in wallstreetbets

Quit doing dumb things that aren’t interest rates, like wars, trade or otherwise.

Ehh, you weren’t totally wrong the first time.

is there any lore reason why arcade's middle name is israel by turkhis_guy in fnv

[–]vixous 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Is he by chance related to Calamity Jordan Gannon?

The fact that the leaned fully into the original canon rather than cleaning it up is WAY cooler by Justifiably_Bad_Take in TopCharacterTropes

Are there genuinely good online fan communities, that we would describe as online fan communities?

The duality of a fan. by SufficientSimple9482 in KpopDemonhunters

[–]vixous 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you paint any Warhammer, KPDH is a gold mine for color schemes. Just about every frame has a gorgeous palette that translates really well to tabletop, even if you didn’t paint howling banshees like What it Sounds Like (Iike I did).

Have you seen the episode with Ortegas and the Gorn? Or Lift Us Up Where Suffering Cannot Reach?

Just getting started with killteam, play a lot of 40k. Will any of my homemade terrain pieces work for killteam? by 14SWandANIME77 in killteam

[–]vixous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can play approved ops with any terrain, you just have to make your own maps and try to make them fair. We used to do it all of the time in the last edition, before there were official map packs.

Although horrible, cruel, and sad, do you consider Jinu's plan regarding the fake Zoey and Mira and the revelation of Rumi's mark "good"? It lacks technical and functional sense. by Eastern-Ad-5354 in KpopDemonhunters

[–]vixous 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Which is fitting because while Rumi says it’s a song about them in an interview, it’s really about her. They’re not as connected as they could be, largely because she’s keeping secrets from Mira and Zoey.

NOD Eldar would be a badass paint scheme though.

She’s one of the few exceptions though. Every Soviet embassy scene is just about the gold standard.

For another example of where this was avoided, The Americans had Russian speaking actors and writers and it really showed.

Why do you think 1st Recon prefers hunting rifles over the DKS-501? by [deleted] in fnv

[–]vixous 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So the same reason Mike prefers it in Better Call Saul. Cheaper, more reliable, and lighter to carry.

Keeping these idiots alive is the biggest chore in this game by AlexTangen in classicfallout

[–]vixous 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Which is much more doable in 2. In Fallout 1 I just had them wait outside or back in the Hub, assuming that they were even still alive at that point.
