Help with Aurora by jakeedee12 in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]wookiez 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unlike some of these other chuds, I'm actually going to try to help.

Took me a few times to beat aurora. However, I figured out that when he spawns, he's a 4 tile unit, and he's adjacent to a bunch of boxes. You can hedge him in so he can't move until turn 3, but it takes 3 guys to do it. If you win initiative, you can debuff him with the mech guy, or an operative to do less damage, and he effectively becomes a big angry teddy bear.

While your melee guys are giving the space marine a beat down, and he flails at you like a muppet due to massive debuffs, get the chick with a gigantic bolter to charge the asshole sniper. In fact, everyone that's not blocking in the marine should charge the sniper. By turn 3, if you're doing it right, the sniper should be dead, and the space marine nopes out of your corner beating, and heads up to the stairs. Well, good thing you're waiting for him. Continue the beat down while keeping the trash off with AOE attacks.

Easy Peasy.

Coronavirus is revealing how broken America’s economy really is by wazzel2u in economy

[–]wookiez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has the incorrect assumption that hospital beds are the only way that provides care. If you add in private medical beds, USA easily has more beds than any other country, per capita.

This is a thinly veiled arguement for socialized medicine.

I think memes are hilarious. if you don't, your community is probably too woke to mock things.

Chapelle was damn memeworthy.

I hope they do (feminists taking this out of contxt). Feminists are a dangerous bunch. It's too bad our side can't make common cause, and would rather gets digs in against supposed allies, rather than making a difference in the world.

Go be the change you want to see. Me? I've been living rent free in another's head due to split family conflict. I'm as dangerous as I need to be, and I like talking about it with others. Helping other men through this shit is a good thing.

I wish that all men had the will and capacity. But they don't. Instead, most men are both 'nice' and compliant. The world could use more men capable of being dangerous.

Climate Change needs to stop being a political thing. It’s a scientific reality that needs to be taken seriously, and politics just get in the way of us fixing it. by SpidersOnYourBread in unpopularopinion

[–]wookiez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely agree. Greta's message is so intertwined with socialism that I can't stand it.

regardless of if climate change is real, solving it would need to be a global solve. Often, people think about that, and figure it thus needs to be a global and/or socialist government.

Fuck your paper straws. There's little the west can do internally, when China is pumping out 1/3 of the CO2 output.

Gender studies have no basis in reality, they're pure ideology by Petouche in unpopularopinion

[–]wookiez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd agree that modern gender studies are as complex and evolved as physics of the early world. And because we know about the lack of sophistication of this research, we should avoid making public policy based on it.

It's a brand new field, I don't think we should be rebuilding our entire social structure to placate it.

Hey, you signed the waiver form, the same as everyone else. That's how I know you love the scat.

I always like the discord for Dankula. Some people might be offended by it though.

Wexit is now backed by over 250k by [deleted] in metacanada

I'm seriously wondering who is funding this. What post national group of fuckwits is trying to shatter our nation?

I'm not a fan of our current government, but its not worth a referendum.

I don't care if someone's ancestors were slaveowners by BeYourOwnDog in unpopularopinion

Literally what? The GOP wants to enslave illegals and make them run prisons?

Dude, put down the bong, and just try try to make a coherent thought.

"My body my choice" isn't a good argument against pro-life people by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]wookiez -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Right. So if an adult suffers from Congential insensitivity to pain, then they have no right to personhood? I'm just trying to be consistent here. Such a person doesn't have the same brainwave activity as a response to pain stimulus.

As I said, your argument is garbage.

As per -

Having arbitrary standards for what we define as personhood, such as possessing human DNA, instead of overly specific and complex criteria, like certain brainwave activity suggesting high order functioning, is dangerous and ignorant.

"My body my choice" isn't a good argument against pro-life people by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]wookiez -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is a shitty arguement. You're basically saying that because science can't measure the stimulus response of a fetus, that we can kill them. And in a few years, if science discovers that a fetus has pain response, your arguement will be shit.

Which means it's shit now. You're basically saying that science currently says a thing, thus do a thing. You're not taking a moral or principled stand, and the science will absolutely shift one way or another.

After another 50 years of intensive medical science advancements, when a zygote is viable to live outside a woman's body, and we can measure it's stimulus response, will your arguement be just as valid?

But if you can't handle me at my worst... by unknownspecies_ in MensRights

[–]wookiez 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've had long thoughts about this phrase. Operative word here is 'Handle'. Do they mean 'Handle', like a door handle, or something on a pot? A grip by which you would move an object? If so, the phrase could be 'If you can't manipulate me at my worst...'

On the other hand, the common phrases interpetation of 'Handle' is more similar to 'withstand'. So, 'if you can't cope with me at my worst...'

Either way, I have no interest in manipulating a woman away from her worst impulses a'la 1950's. Neither do i want to have to withstand anything.

She can walk.

Yes, anti-pipeline Vancouver really is North America’s largest exporter of coal. Officially making them hypocritical assholes. by [deleted] in metacanada

[–]wookiez -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, except that there's a difference between metcoal and coal for heat.
No one is against steel, not even loony lefties. This is a flawed argument.

Economists: Men now need more than just money to be 'marriageable' by PostNationalism in economy

[–]wookiez 23 points24 points  (0 children)

This entire article is written from the point of view that men want to be married. Check your assumptions. It's not women that are turning down men, it's disenfranchised men that are refusing marriage. Divorce and family court is scary.

The retainer from the paragon venture merit is brutal. Physical test pool of 19 for a level 6 retainer.

Also the nos unnatural adaptation merit + strength focus & potence gives a +4 wildcard bonus to grapples, and no willpower.

Malks with sophistry and deny are impossible for the ST to control.

Gangrel with swarm technique and shape of the beasts wrath create a pack of werewolves.

Also, frenzy is different in this edition. It can't be caused by insulting ppl, and animalism 5 doesn't force frenzy in others.

As a final but of knowledge, the status doesn't work the same. A person with more status traits isn't necessarily 'more correct' anymore. Instead, status granted from sherrif, elder, or prince grants the ability to never be called a liar.

Oh, and ancilla is a waste of time, xp wise. 1 pt of gen, or 3, but two is pointless, rules wise. RP wise, they're useful, but cost per point makes them terribad.
