Not sure I'd get too comfortable with that combo, what with CA2018 just around the corner and all..

Context is everything.

Glad it is not just me! I saw that and was wondering what Grandfather's up to...

Good points, but I think Ork players would lose their collective scheisse if GSC jumped the line. Much of Dakka is on suicide watch, even with today's announcement 😉

Yeah, thanks! Conventional wisdom (based on Gamesday? reveal) is that we get Space Pups and Orks in (roughly) tandem, followed by GSC. Given the 'Orktober' ref in the video, I guess that means GSC in Nov, or maybe January? I suspect we won't see big releases in December, due to the holidays...

I was gearing up to do GSC as my second 8th ed army. Was. Time to fish that box of orks out from the back of the closet. Unless another GSC announcement comes along, at which point I'll probably flip again. Do you think GW knows they have a hotline to my dopamine production and just goose it for kicks?

I watched The Witch, followed by Dunkirk last night. The Witch was very good, but Dunkirk was amazing -- maybe my favorite war movie ever. Not a great before-bed double-feature, too intense; I don't remember any of my dreams, but I know I had some disturbing ones.

That's cool, this year is work on the yard anyways. I think next year will be AC... particularly if we keep up with these weeks of 95+

I've been thinking of going this way. Currently have radiant electric heat and window AC units, mini split heat pump would be a vast improvement. You don't work in WA?

Maybe I need a Y'vahra after all...

That's very interesting. I'd never heard 'fud' used beyond 'Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt' -- it'll be useful in Scrabble and Quiddler, if nothing else.

I heard an anecdote that links the 'Nimrod' decent to insult to Elmer Fudd. In one episode, Bugs Bunny called Elmer Fudd a 'Nimrod' as a reference to his hunting, however it was interpreted as an insult to his intelligence... not sure if it *started* there, but I'll bet it had an impact.

He's on the throne all right.

I'm working on a terrain project and am looking to incorporate a trashed Necron Monolith. If you've got one, even missing the green transparent bits, turrets, etc. let me know. Ideally in Vancouver...

I'd argue the reverse, but sure 😉

People are tori.

Remember Melee, Wizard, et al AKA The Fantasy Trip? Steve Jackson recovered the license that Metagaming took to the grave:

I'm very happy regarding Stealth Suits, they're one of my favorite units. Time to paint my Breachers to match my Stealth Suits.

I expect Firewarriors, Pathfinders and Drones. Steath Suits would be cool, but I'd be surprised if we get them.

Soooo, what're we thinking on the box? $150?

Make an offer for $30... you never know.
