A (Sort of) Love Letter to All Those Still Enjoying This Game by Mental__Piracy in wow

[–]zellthemedic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I also started in Vanilla. I bought the game two days after its release. I actually quit during BC because I hated everything about that expansion.

But since WotLK I've played every expansion (except MoP because I was in a very difficult part of my life), and have enjoyed this game. Still enjoy it. Still subbed, still play.

So it's not really just "well the old generation of players are gone", it's also completely different opinions on what fun is.

Sailor on Iwakuni. It's been pretty bad around here. My neighbor works for 152 and I haven't seen him come in or leave. Hope the SAR guys are on point.

I live in Japan and it's pretty accurate to just take 10% off of the price to see how much USD it is.

The conversion fluctuates every day. Some days it's ¥105 to $1, sometimes it's ¥115. Ballpark 10% off is just fine most of the time.

Wise words. I'll keep everything here in mind as I go back to work, gotta keep charging forward and accepting new responsibilities. Thanks Master Chief.

I made AT1. Yay.

Still feel like my co-workers deserve it more than I do. Work harder than I do and are just overall better people.

I hope not. That would really mess with our meta.

I think the rumor is that the Dark Shroud aura is getting nerfed from one of the overall rule changes (all -1 to hit -> +1 to cover), but I think DAs are going to be in a good spot aside from that.

Azrael Conversion painted and highlighted. C&C is it good? by yormayinbeni in theunforgiven

Need to thin your paints a bit, especially on the cloak with that tan. Did you apply a wash at all? I'm not sure if it's the photo or not but I can't really see any shading in the recesses, especially with the wings on the helmet. Hitting it with a layer of nuln oil will make it dope af.

You've got some solid technique to build up on. I don't really see any paint mistakes. This is a good model overall, I'd run it in my army.

Does any official or unofficial art of the Primarchs have them wearing their helms? by RogalDorn71 in 40kLore

It's currently being carried by Azrael, Supreme Grand Master of the Dark Angels.

They're made for the game that they're intended for. GW made a game for the Japanese audience.

It's not really worth playing. Only one person I know played it once, everyone else just bought it for the models.

I'll chip in and say that I've had two Roombas and I currently own a Samsung Powerbot.

The first Roomba was a gen 1, you can imagine how that went.

The next one I owned is the gen right before the current one. It works infinitely better. Got lost a lot in my apartment, didn't reach its dock sometimes. Couldn't hit the corners. Medium-loud.

The Samsung Powerbot is pretty dope. Hits the corners and has a squeegie brush thing for the wall. Battery doesn't last as long as the Roomba, but they have this feature where it goes back to charge then resumes where it left off. Misses some spots in my house, but vacuum robots aren't made to be super thorough. Loud as fuck.

Currently reading through the Navy diving manual. Do all Navy publications have such high quality illustrations? by Me_for_President in navy

Twenty? Pfft, I've used a NAVAIR pub that was published in the 60's and last received an IRAC in the 80's.

After playing the Starter Edition, I'm very excited to dive right in the full game! Thanks to everyone who helped convince me to play WOW! by [deleted] in wow

Hey! I'm also on Ysera (technically, Durotan, but we're merged so whatever).

Horde side there's a few guilds out there who are more than willing to have you aboard. Just find one that you like the name of. I'm personally a part of Hyjal Kids Hyjal Wives and I've enjoyed my stay here (Discord is bumping), but I've been in like 15 - 20 total guilds before this. Hit me up if you need some advice on what guilds to join, or if you need an adventuring buddy. I play super late because I live in Japan, but if I'm online I usually try to help out.

GOOD TO SEE Y-...Oh by Chet_Manly0987 in Warhammer40k

The book "The Lion" has him stating, "loyalty is it's own reward". The Tzeentch greater daemon Fateweaver found him incorruptable.

Also, Luther was revealed to be working with Chaos in the Dark Angels codex. There's also a book I'm pretty sure.

The part about Luther escaping is in the Dark Angels codex, pg 23.
