... much as I would love to use trains, especially for long distance journeys, it is not economically or logistically viable to do so.

Looking to travel from Axminster in Devon to Nottingham in 6 weeks time.
To take the train will cost, at minimum, ยฃ161.90 return, per person.
It will take, assuming no delays, 6-7 hours to get there.
To drive will take just under 4 hours, use ~ยฃ120 worth of petrol for the round trip...

Maybe she's saying it's Brit Ian that loses... Which I'm assuming is Ian Duncan Smith?

Sharpe getting made major is more to do with giving him the rank to keep doing what he does best without interference from officers who don't like his origins...

the post office is a public service. it doesnโ€™t need to make money. public transit doesnโ€™t need to make money. the library doesnโ€™t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

I don't think it's orky - the gauntlet housing looks too clean, and the fingers are stubby claws rather than proppa orky snippers.
Some sort of alien mercenary or a scaly mutant for Necromunda is my betting...

They want to be the 40k Imperium of Man; the meme version of Deus Vult, Burn the Heretics etc and see Catholicism as the closest thing to that

For the money and resources they put into this they could have just hired a korean person, from actual Korea, flown them in, and had them cook a steak sandwich...

"Hoobs" or whatever that stupid bear in Dynamite Headdy was trying to say

"That doesn't work!" and "Do it *now* Rincewind, this is no time for idle chit chat" "as if I can help who does my voiceover" Discworld

Definitely going to try and get them... Love the infantry sculpts, not sold on the mechanical minotaur thing as much though

The pose on the 40k version is superior, but I don't think the AoS mock up is "bad"

Weirdly that picture reminds me of playing Road Rash on the Megadrive as a kid...

Also the article texts says one for each grand alliance so it being Chaos would fit if the other three are Fyreslayers (Order), Ogors (Destruction), and Ossiarchs (Death)

At a time like this it's important to remember he has a wife and kids, and all of them can get fucked too
