Since https://warhammer.social is going down, I am going to give Pixelfed another chance!
[@[email protected]](https://pixelfed.de/heretic_hannes )
I had previous problems with the platform, but I hope that most have been ironed out. If that doesn't work, I will come up with a plan B.

I used to think like that, too, but I am leaning more and more towards:
All things are ephemeral in the end, and content/users/vibe is more important than tech.
This instance going down is a good example of the first point. I love the theory of Fedi, but I am often annoyed by the reality of it. But it would take a longer post to explain that.

Oh no, how sad 😔
I am undecided about moving to
1) another Masto instance (which one?)
2) pixelfed (is it usable now?)
3) BlueSky (try it out?)
So many questions...

At a company event in Cologne and decided to go to a Spiele-Cafe with three colleagues!
We had a great time playing Brass: Birmingham, although we didn't finish the game unfortunately. Really need to play this one more often!

Thanks!
The dangling smurf is 3d printed and actually magnetised to the ceiling—which is really helpful, so he doesn't break off when horizontal force is applied.
The Icon of Khorne is kitbashed from some bits box, and I spent way too much time green-stuffing the surrounding area to make the hole appear more "natural". But I also just really suck with Green Stuff.

Seeing how @npub12nh…8j7q and @npub1skj…0gug just posted their Hivestorm terrain…
https://warhammer.social/@rollleafd/113330488283055862
https://warhammer.social/@npub1skj…0gug
…and the colour scheme is super close to the one I used on the terrain parts previously available (Battlezone Manufactorum), I thought I'd post some older pictures of mine!
Of course, my paint job is not as crisp, but OTOH I did spend time replacing those Machanicum symbols with ones dedicated to real gods 😈

I love this place, as well, but I would really like to the federation to be more seamless. Also with threads.
I think that's what the original Fedi spirit is about: being able to have you own, small community, but allowing everyone to connect with everyone else easily!

Also, if you followed one of us Mastodonians BEFORE you followed @ap.brid.gy, you need to unfollow and refollow 😐
Things will hopefully be easier in the future.

3rd Edition is what I started with 😍 Fond memories although a barely actually played it 😅

2024-09-16 16:33:11 GMT

Finally, I finished two minis:
The Blessed Blades of the Dark Commune!
Not happy with everything of course, but at least a bit of progress on the many WIP projects.

The hobby table now has LP display frames above it—fittingly filled with some #SpaceMetal for the start.

It seems similar to "Legends" in #Warhammer40k, i.e. there will be official-inofficial datasheets for a while, but they will quickly become unbalanced, not follow bigger rule changes and thus become unusable—unless you play by older rules entirely, which you also don't want because one of the players likely has a new team that didn't have rules before.

Oh, great, so 3 of my 4 Kill teams will only be properly supported for one more year:

Why does game-workshop have to games-workshop everything that people like 😠

> less editions less frequently would be my preference. But they’re a business so go figure,
I actually think they could go with fairly stable rules (and for free), and instead create hype around... miniatures!
No, really. Even accepting they want to maximise profits, they don't have to do it via rules/codices. They could do
• more thematic box sets
• limited edition minis that just look different but don't require rule changes
• special add-ons/gear
• ...
Every collector would still buy.

What are the advantages over Wahapedia?
I'll need to find out!

I always use Wahapedia!
The killer feature they have for Killteam is mouse-over tooltips on special words like *rending*.

I am quite excited about it, as well!
Although I do wish they would put out new editions less frequently.
Since I only play a few times per year, I feel like the rules have always changed notably 😐
Conversely, I would appreciate stuff being removed from the game instead of adding new things. I have never played any of the more complicated missions, used Tac Ops or Equipment. The many individual operative sheets and abilities are plenty to keep track of, IMHO 😅
