If you had laughed, you would have written "LOL". That's internet law! I thought you were a lawyer? Did you even pass the BAR?

I'm a law-lawyer not a rules-lawyer, (and actually yes, I've passed 3 bars :closed-eyes: plus 2 more on  my way to work)

I'm pissed nobody laughed at my whale joke.  :icon_evil:

Sea Shepards will be mean to us if we laugh.  How can you make a whale joke when they are DYING.  DYING I tell ya.

ha ha ha ha, it was very punny.   Did you hear about pinochio asking the whale how deep they were? when the whale replied 20,000 leagues under the sea, pinochio responded you wouldn't shit me now would you?   steveb

Got a vasectomy today, stopping happily at three kids. This happy and random thought comes with the constant feeling like I've been kicked in the toys. As with most responsible decisions, it's awesome and sucks at the same time. True to form, I opted out of opium-based pain killers so that I could continue to drink beer, which I am doing now. As with most irresponsible decisions, it kicks ass. Cheers!  :::cheers:::

Good for you - no more worrying about the wife taking chemicals or mini-raincoats!

I had it done over 20 years ago, and on a physio table in a clinic - in and out in about 30 minutes.
Got irritated a few days later and couldn't be bothered to wait for the doc, so pulled the stitches out myself ...................

I had often thought about getting it done.  Was not sure how the wife would react to it though since she wants more kids.   :icon_rolleyes:  I am happy with the one we got, especially since the doctors told us to have more kids, would be putting my wife's life in danger, and we lost 2 prior to the one we have.

8th edition made empire a powerhouse. If that isn't happy and random, I don't know what is.

I'm sorry, but it's just that there's no more room for us to laugh at your puns. There's only room for the puns of two people. Midaski and Gnu just filled up the spots first.

Haha, thanks.

I worked hard for it though.

My boss got it done about a year ago.

You have to go back and get checked up to see how it progressed - he went back (about 6 months later) and found out he still had swimmers in his tubes. And that they can stick around in the tubes for quite some time afterwards.

Be careful.

Good point, and if true, the Empire might not be getting a new army book for awhile.

Hey, I am happy about it.

No reason not to be, unless of course you're one of those evil armies playing against the Empire.  Then there is room for quaking in their boots.  If they wear any.

Do DoC wear boots, and I wonder how they're doing with the new rules?

Of course DoC doesn't where boots you sillys.

The real question is how DoC is fairing under 8th edition, but could be too early to tell.

Get used to it pal. I usually just don't feel like intruding on yours and Midaskis area of expertise.

I guess they're still good, but not as insanely good as they were. Which is good.

At least they suffered something like an equaliser when it comes to magic. The downgrading to terror isn't to their benefit, either. And the availability of flaming attacks hurts their anvil-blocks.

They still have their flamers, bloodhounds etc. though.

About time then! :icon_biggrin:

I'll take revenge at the next Eurobash, where I hope to turn up with my new undead army to be horribly slaughtered by everybody and their dog. Or rat, rather.

Btw, I'm sure you have marvelled at the pics of that Skaven army in the BRB? Some great (and fairly disgusting) conversions there.

I dont think Empire has become a powerhouse... Our infantry still get shredded. Sure our Arty and outriders have become better, but i cant fit alot of heroes in my armies anymore. WoC is the new powerhouse, gentlemen.

That would be awesome! You showing up I mean. Don't be the new Phantom!

Indeed. A boatload of really pretty pics in there, of all the armies. I really, really like this book. Even if my very own personal copy is still taking it's sweet time to arrive from far away misty Britain.

WoC is the new powerhouse, gentlemen.
WoC have certainly received a massive boost, but most of their troops are still very expensive and still die like any other infantryman to the new magic. I've seen them take brutal casualties from the likes of "final transmutation".
On the other hand, a fat unit of Chosen pretty much ate whatever it contacted.

If I start saving up the cigarette money my GF lets me keep each week, I might have just enough to afford it in a year's time.

Eh? You can field much more heroes than you ever could in 7th and 6th now!

You both can win.  You can get fixed and you can adopt a child to two.  I have done that and it has been wonderful.

What about turning up at our place for a game or two with Aldaris, Fandir and me then? We'll meet on July 25 and would be glad if you dropped by, too.

Thank you very much, that's really nice! :eusa_clap:

If we're talking about this year, however, I have to decline (with great regret). This is still my "messed up for various reasons"-season.
