This is from many pages ago, but I thought it needed to be said Re: Blue Table Painting.

As much as it may suck to offer overpriced and sub-par painting services, I think the kind of person who hires someone else to paint an entire lot of bespoke soldier dollies deserves to be fleeced as hard as possible, as much as possible, repeatedly, and then maybe beaten a bit for good measure because seriously, gently caress that guy.

I've already seen people who hate folks who:
*want to paint and assemble
*don't want to paint and assemble
*want to play with minis

So, hating on people who want to play with minis (but don't want to paint them themselves) is a natural thing to see.

Dude already explained it, he was in the middle of getting two armies ready for some gaming cons or some such, and didn't have time to work on both. He didn't figure on BTP just taking a dump on his minis and calling it a day.

Making any in-character decisions based on dice probability is a prime example of meta-gaming. It should be avoided.

I stopped paying attention to his posts when I saw "tryhard loser" used three times in the same post and in unironic fashion. There's about a good five or so pages of grog that I just skipped.

Whenever anyone gets into that stupid loving argument, I think of this picture and remember that their failure to find women outside of the petite-bourgeoisie princesses to which they are accustomed is only that, their failure.




As someone who has had some significant real-life adventures, and is also firmly outside the norms of our society, that is pretty much how it works. You can not even see the edge if you are firmly planted in the middle.

Thanks for this whole thread. It makes me even more grateful for the many awesome gamers with whom I have diced over the years.

First off, y'all have changed the meaning of the word grognard to mean any number of mutable things in any context. It's basically a repurposed shibboleth for, "not a cool leet gamer like us in our secret club" rather than something that actually has any real meaning.

Secondly, are you actually alleging that I am a victim of molestation, because I think that someone who chooses to spend approx. $30,000 on a paintjob for a Warhammer Army to some random company that they read about online is a loving idiot who deserves everything they got and then some? It's one thing to entrust such a high dollar task to someone whose work you already personally know and respect, but... seriously, how stupid can you be? If you think that was a smart move and not something that deserves public ridicule, then I have some MacGuffins I'd like to sell you, real cheap, great value, just PM me and I'll tell you where you can mail the cash.

This is both the best AND worse thing I have ever seen. Yeah it's horrible, but can you imagine the glee he felt putting this together? The simple joys of painting random brown splotes? The pride the owner must feel when he lays out his army?

Could you imagine how joyous it would be to play against this army? Here is a person that gets it.

I've noticed how progressive the Tigers of Veda have become. They now have men.

It's fun to poke at the conversions and paint (backwards Rhinos?), but I"m not going to sperg about how he's having fun the wrong way. In fact, I've grown to love the 'deviations from normal' that throw grogs into conniption fits and flame wars. To give credit where due, at least he didn't go full on "sausage of green stuff" titsmarines. He went "female marines with some Indian sounding mythos" based off one picture from White Dwarf back in the day, but unless someone can correct me, he doesn't seem to be "painting with one hand".

quote:

If you need more reading material, please consider my latest novel, a modern sci-fi story called Lost Dogs, about two pets who survive the end of the human world, only to find that their struggles are just beginning. It's the apocalypse as experienced through the eyes, ears, and nose of a dog, and it will have you rethinking how you view man's best friend.
