Just shitty 4chan slang.

Primary usage I've seen for it is sPoOpY sKeLeToNs.

I was about to RAGE.

Then I saw the publisher. Good one guys.

DF scales threats on wealth.

Yes, that is a thing in RW, but wasn't the thing I was referring to.

Eventually you will start seeing high tech weapons (don't think you can build them yourself?), and so on the melee side, that's the likes of the Zeushammer, monosword, and plasmasword. I think plasmaswords are the strongest for raw damage, but they also set the target on fire like 50% of the time.

If that happens in the middle of the enclosed portions of your base, you can see why that'd be a problem. Also shows why fire poppers are important.

Very nice writeup. Don't have the time to fully read, but did a quick skim. Def saved for later reference though.

You sound like you might have the latest news on the 30% tax credit. Do you know how much longer that'll be a thing/what you'd need to do now to get it?

This is good info and makes sense. Thanks!

So I've heard a typical set up is still dependent on grid power (typical set up => able to push power back to the grid), and so during a power outage, you still lose power at your home. Its my understanding one of the components required for the hook up to The Grid requires continuous power (in case you need to push/pull power from the grid) and since it can't guarantee power from your panels, it gets that power from the grid (thus grid goes down, your whole home's power goes down.

Don't suppose you know more about this or can explain why this is/isn't the case? This setup seems unintuitive and undesirable to me, and so I'd love to have proof that's not the case, if it exists.

Trying to find the original response video, but can only find clipped or commented over versions.

Can anyone point me to the original video?

Gotta watch for insects under the mountain. There's some ways to cheese this, but I personally like the semi real risk it brings. I do advise avoiding plasma swords for your guys. Its too easy to start fires by accident, and in a large mountain base, a bad fire is death.

Other guy gave an okey explanation, but to try my hand at explaining:

On a typical round of combat, you get three actions. You can spend them in a variety of ways. An attack is one action, movement ("stride" action) is one action, most offensive spells are 2 actions, etc.

A lot of classes get ways to "discount" actions. For example an early feat fighters and barbarians can take is "Sudden Charge" which let's them stride twice and attack an adjacent creature and costs 2 actions.

The whole thing lends so much freedom and takes a lot of burden off the DM for needing to homebrew / make up things on the fly. The whole system is very crunchy though (very detailed and particular on its rules) and so doesn't fit everyone's vibes.

The real scathing insult was just "uninstall"

Can you explain how/why its the same?

My instinct says its actually trying to reach 127.1.0.0 (which is still local host), but that's an educated guess at best.

Edit: Question was answered later on thread

I literally can't believe it took us 50 years of ttrgs existing in basically their modern form for us to find the 3 action system. Its so intuitive and liberating compared to every other game system I've experienced.
