pyersamid (01/28/2015) [-] Warmachine/Hordes is less expensive than 40K because a unit is like 6-9 unit for the big one and 40K is like 10+ so its less costly and if you like more steampunk and middle age thing warmachine is your choice. And check what is the main game at your local model retail because event are fun #18 -
manollette (01/28/2015) [-] Main game for my local retail is Warmachine/Hordes. And I know it's cheaper - however, it's also cheaper to play 40k than it is to play 40k *and* Warmachine. Don't care much for events. As far as gameplay goes, I only really play at home with friends and such. Most of the people I've met at events have their buttholes clenched a little to tight for my liking. #21 -
manollette (01/28/2015) [-] Nope. Only two friends that really play, and it's exclusively 40k so far. Maybe someday, but for now I've still got about 20,000 points worth of 40k stuff to paint, so I'm in no rush. #23 -
manollette (01/28/2015) [-] Lol I hadn't planned on it. But I do have a wide variety of people over to play games with on a regular basis. If somebody I hang out with frequently happens to play, it might tip me over onto the other side of the fence. | ||

manollette (01/28/2015) [-] Lol practice, practice. Trust me, my first models sucked hardcore. Just look up different methods for painting your guys, practice, and make sure you thin your paints. Most of the special effects I've done I've had to look up. Blending, the glow on the plasma weapons, making boils on nurgle models, etc. | ||

manollette (01/01/2014) [-] If that is your definition of cockiness, then you are misinformed about Marines. I won't say the degree of a Marine's confidence is accurate, but that confidence is very founded, and based on actual performance. Even the non-combat MOS's spend 13 weeks being torn down and brought back up to be the best, not including actual Marine Combat Training, which lasts another month. I suppose this is one of those situations where you have to experience it to understand it. I won't lie, I do get a tad irritated when someone assumes they know whether or not something is founded, true, reasonable, etc. when they have no first hand experience of it. But, from the outside looking in, I can understand it, even if I'd have a hard time condoning it. | ||

manollette (01/01/2014) [-] Because it's the exact opposite of what you're claiming the Marines do. Cockiness means I think I can win no matter how stacked the odds are against me. Humility would mean that I have an accurate, and even humble estimate of my abilities, and will act as such. Would an accurate estimate of a situation where I'm outnumbered 20 to 1 include the vehement belief that I can and will come out the victor? No. But an excessively cocky belief in your own abilities can drive you to match your own estimation. #107 -

manollette (01/01/2014) [-] Your post got so many thumbs up because, while well intended, the content here does a pretty bad job of showing Marines for what they are. Marines are cocky, and believe they are the best because that's how they are trained. To be the best, and to think they're the best. Because when the S**t hits the fan, that ego, that mindset, can be used to push Marines to extraordinary lengths. If you believe you're the best, then when you're surrounded and outnumbered, you're going to do whatever it takes to BE the best, for yourself and for the men at your back. That cockiness is what makes the Marines the most tenacious sons of bitches in the US Armed Forces. Kudos for not devolving this little back-and-forth into a mindless barrage of insults though. #99 -

anon (01/01/2014) [-] here's the problem i think the other guy was trying to point out: you're seeing a compilation of pictures, some of them being 20 something year olds making fun out of their job which, might i remind you, sorta deals with dealing with people trying to kill you. other pictures like the pantsless guy flipping someone off being the picture of a bomb squad member flipping off the guys who just blew up an IED under his feet, after people took off his pants to see how fucked up his legs were, even though he could walk fine and refused to take a stretcher. we see pictures of people acting exactly how any regular human being would act, and minus a few pictures, in no way shows marines, or really any branch of the military being "cocky douchebags". in conclusion, if you even read this far without responding like some ass, your comment reeks of a lack of education about people overseas, and is supported by 45 or so people who also have that lack of education #98 -
manollette (01/01/2014) [-] Entitled? Yes. Because I would say they *are* entitled to quite a bit. They knew what they signed up for, but that doesn't mean they don't deserve something in return. I can't deny that a large portion of Marines return to civilian life to be absolute asses. Hell, my stepfather growing up was a Marine and he took to beating my Mom. That doesn't, however, mean that's what the USMC teaches, and it sure as hell doesn't mean that they're all like that. #105 -

manollette (12/31/2013) [-] It does. They drill so many things into you in boot camp. One of the biggest ones is that the training does more than make Marines. It makes better citizens. As for the cockiness, when you have the balls to go out there and do something like what every last one of them has done, you're more than welcome to be cocky too. #96 -

FJ's given me plenty of laughs. Glad to give a few in return.
You will give the people an ideal to strive towards. They will race behind you, they will stumble, they will fall. But in time, they will join manolette in the sun.
