What's on your mind?

So there these things called “Necromunda Apocrypha”…. Are these official rules releases or what?

If they’re official, will they be collected in an Apocrypha Compliation?
Pretty sure they’re official in the sense that the arbitrator can allow use of them. We’re definitely making use of all in our upcoming campaign- variety!

a compilation would be nifty - they are all available in the downloads area of the warcom site so print & staple option if you’re feeling old school

They’re free bits of new content from the GW team that does Necromunda. Honestly I don’t know what their plans are for them long term but they seem pretty ignorable for the most part.

Occasionally there might be a character or scenario in there that’s cool to try.

I'm well excited about the new scavy rules... switching my outcast gang over to em now for our current campaign
 
So…. In a three story (sorta) house, how does it rain in a second story room with no pipes above it?!? the ceiling was covered by what looks like leachate (caused by condensation) but then one of the kids took a shower and it started dripping like crazy. All rooms with pipes show nothing. No wet spots, no drips, nothing. The room above it has no wet floors or anything.

Am I just living up to picking that Slayer song as my comp entry?!? WTF…
 
I've seen similar in the depths of winter when an old vent cover fell of what used to be an extractor fan hole. The freezing air cooled a patch of one ceiling and it would get wet and drip as if there was a leak, but it was 100% condensation.

Not so much an August thing, unless you live in Alaska.

Where do the drain pipes for the rooms above actually run, if you know? Could one be running above the ceiling in question?
 
The drain pipes run in the opposite direction. To the best of my knowledge, there are no incoming or drainage pipes on that side of the house. Kitchen and bathrooms are in the middle/far side of the house. And it’s electric heat, so no baseboard plumbing either.

Edit: the master bedroom is right above the raining room, and my wife has the AC cranked up to “walk-in freezer” levels in there…. But that’s a LOT of water coming down.

Leaks both internal (from pipes) and external (from weather) can track a surprising way along joists or other supports. This means the location of damp seen below doesn't always line up with the source of the leak upstairs.

Certainly that's my experience fault finding leaks in a 100yr old house.

We once had a leak from the toilet in the upstairs bathroom, at the back of the house, running all the way to the front of the house, to fall through the ceiling next to the front door; a good couple of metres/yards distance with at least half of the distance definitely without any pipes involved. We knew where it was coming from due to all the gushing water at the time, so a bit easier than finding the source of damp, but the concept of "water can travel" is real.

Sounds like the drainage for the shower might have a crack or hole in it, letting the water flow out then along the beams/ceiling boards. A good test would be to run other taps/water outlets to see which ones contribute to the damp (to make it drip like crazy), but for now you at least know *something* about the shower water drainage is a factor.

This past month I've just started a Fallout 2d20 rpg game with some local friends. Two sessions in and we are loving it so far. Now I find myself eyeing the Wasteland Warfare minis from Modiphius' other Fallout game. This could get dangerously expensive fast.

but to answer punktaku , the coldest room in a building will always gather condensation if poorly ventalated , and in my case it was literaly by the bucketfull.(ive spent a lot of time with a building gang over the last year) , (big shout out to dan and the lads)

Soooooo.... @Stoof Shared his first dreadnaught on the miniatures section, that was very rudimentary, but packed with character.

It got me thinking of a topic that comes to mind often. That of pushing standards that need not be pushed. We want highly detailed miniatures, partly for ourselves but there is some element of competition and comparison with others. It's the same for cars and make up and practicallyeverything else. If everyone chose not to always chase the biggest and best then we might have gotten to that place that 100 years ago economists were hoping for, where living would cost the same as air.

If everyone got out of bed tomorrow and simply chose not to wear make up or to buy the fanciest car, then I think prices would drop, people would readjust what they thought was pretty, etc.

I don't really know where this thought is heading, but I crave my childhood when i was happy to use a cardboard photo to play a game. I wash i could go back to that.

Know what i mean?

Nostalgia, it gets ya right in the feels.

Unfortunately, what you're asking for relies on human beings having a stronger willpower and sense of self than what most can actually achieve. You often get the lowest common denominator driving such situations due to herd mentality - there are more dumb, insecure, arrogant, selfish, narcissistic people in the world than anyone else, and they need their emotional crutches of a fast car/makeup/sprawling mansion/jewellery/haute couture clothes etc, and similar people see others with those crutches "living their best life", which drives them to do the same, and the cycle perpetuates.
