  1. Here's a post from Reece about it too.
    "Alright, the cat is finally out of the bag on the table size thing so we can actually speak somewhat freely about it.
    So, let me address a few things to clear it up a bit as some of you are already freaking out a bit or speculating wildly about the why of things here.
    First: do you have to switch your table size? No. As they say in the article, it's not required if you want to stick to a 4x6' although it is good to know that 9th was designed to be played on a smaller surface and the missions areas many of you have seen were designed with that in mind. They still function on a 6x4' for sure, but I wanted to put that out there. 

    Second: why did GW do this? The answer is incredibly simple: it allows new players to build a table using Kill Team boards that easily fit into boxes. That's it. No conspiracy, a simple choice based on what they felt was best for accessibility to the game from a business perspective.
    Third: did we at Frontline have any input on this choice? No. We have absolutely zero influence in or usually even knowledge of product development choices GW makes. We only give feedback on rules. We were pretty shocked when we learned about this ourselves but the choice was made and we had to keep our mouths shut due to our NDAs. It was not fun to be in our shoes but that’s the way it goes.
    Fourth: will we be running our events on these new sized surfaces? Yes we will. Once I got over my shock and aversion to the idea, and I saw that it was much better for the long term logistics of event organization, I started to come around on it. You can fit a lot more people in the same space, you need less terrain and over time, it will make it a lot easier to get involved as a TO as the barrier to entry has been lowered."

    It says, to me, that FLG sells playmats.

    As it stands, seeing as how GW has reduced minimum play area by inches, their entire line of 40k playmats is unaffected by this.

    So this project will no doubt be great for RPGs and such... But oh my Zod, it is PERFECT for Oathmark:

    Edit to Add: I backed this at the Gold Level with the Epic Cities add-on. It’ll still be a few weeks before they release the files, but I’m looking forward to it.

    Damn, I've been looking for something like this. I have various free ones, but they don't look this good.

    A group dedicated to suppressing those who have visions or revelations of the future would be a Non-Prophet Organization.

    A whole new meaning for the 501st. Or, maybe, that IS where Vader got the inspiration for them.

    Last night in a moment of weakness I ordered my first 3D printer, an Ender 3 Pro.
    While I am waiting for it to arrive, does anyone have a recommendation for what sort of filaments I should get, and where to get them?

    Read the thread ^_^ maybe two pages back

  6. UV and titanium makes awesome free radicals. 

    UV destroys Organics. 

    Watch your wavelengths, kids. Stay frosty, stay safe.

     

    I'm curious as to the half life of the free radicals.  If the filtration point is X away from flowers planted for their pleasant odor, will it neutralize the VOCs from the plants still.  What effective length is needed? Do the free radicals only exist within the space lit? 

     

    We use this sort of setup in medical or food.  I believe Swimming Pool/etc UV filters operate on the same principles.

    hmmm I will take a deeper look into the ender 3 pro - are their companies to buy it from that support it better?  Also,  glass plate is a needed extra vs the magnetic plate?  Anything else that is a must if I were to go with the Ender?  

    -d

    I got my 5plus direct from company with zero issue. However, being a member of various groups, I see a group of people complaining about issues, with the most prevalent recommendation being Amazon (domestic, return, etc). I do not recommend supporting those asshat industrialists.

    I just wanna know how they got the kilt on in the ultrasound.  And I gotta say, those have gotten lots better resolution in the last 20 years.

    Oh!  Must be a 3d Resin Print of a 3d Ultrasound, with some artistic license, clearly.
