Warhammer: The Beginner’s Guide to Rogue Trader and Collecting Warhammer

admin

The early years of Rogue Trader:

The rulebook written by Rick Priestley for the game Warhammer 40000, Rogue Trader was published in 1987, this first issue is vastly different from any future issues. It is mostly a cross between RPGs and classic board games, rather than a pure tabletop battle game. Rogue Trader had more detailed information and background on the broader reaches of the 40K universe, its races and its technologies, unlike later editions of the game, for me that is why it is considered a treasured collector’s item and holds a special place. in my collection.

This rulebook is considered much less rigid in the 40K rules than later editions, as it employed a much broader set of viewpoints within the narrative than was common in future versions and easily encouraged mixed factional forces. .

Jokero, Slann, Squats, Zoats are examples of races that were not included in the first edition of RT.

Rogue Trader had six sections:

  • rules of combat,
  • Setting for the Crimson Fist Space Marines fighting the Orks on Rynn’s World,
  • An equipment section.
  • background section
  • Special rules for advanced players,
  • A summary that includes all the graphics in the book.

Some environment elements (bolter guns, Dreadnought armor) can be seen in a wargaming ruleset called Laserburn written by Bryan Ansell and produced by Tabletop Games in 1980. The influence of these can also be seen in the prototype game mechanics. of Necromunda.

My interest in Rogue Trader

When I got into Games Workshop products in the late eighties, it was the Rogue Trader miniatures that caught my eye. Rick Priestley really did a number on my life! When I first started modelling, I used to build and paint my own lead models, typically British Redcoats, Prussian and Napoleonic forces etc.

Then one day I bought a pack of Ral Partha fantasy figures and started to stray down the fantasy route, but it wasn’t until 1987 with the advent of Rogue Trader that I found something that would take me a lot of time, effort and money of course. . and that was the good old Imperium of Man – (Rick Priestley wrote Rogue Traders as freelance scouts employed by the Imperium to search for planets outside of established borders) and all the hideous creatures you had to fight. Although at first there were no signs of Chaos, well, not like the ones that exist today; sure Preistley hints at the forces of the warp (Chaos), but it wasn’t until some expansions came out that we saw the full power of the forces of Chaos coming. through.

The pride of my collection was an entire army of Imperial Space Marines, painstakingly built and painted over several years. Then again, he also had a fantastic collection of Zoats, Space Slann, Imperial Guard, oh the list really is endless!

After a few years I moved in with my future wife and had our first child, suddenly gaming became less and less important, working and paying the bills seemed to occupy every moment of my life (even when I was attending University. I managed to balancing games with real life, but having kids really is a whole different ball game 🙂

So over the next decade, my beloved collections were lost or broken when we bought our houses and moved due to our careers, and sadly I finally stopped playing!

Then jump to 2001 and a football injury brought me home for 6 months and down and lo and behold, I started shopping for 40K models at the local GW store. In the years that followed I started to really appreciate the workmanship of the Rouge Trader models (today’s models are definitely more sculpted/ornate and are really easy on the eye) I missed the simplicity of those early models, maybe I had the pink eyes and bags of nostalgia that I remembered them but suddenly wanted to recover my lost collections!

Boy!!! Was it easier said than done? Since Games Workshop put all the RT stuff out of production and broke most of the molds I was having a hard time finding them BUT luckily the web was really starting to reach its potential and I was able to start finding clubs and websites where I could talk. with other like minded people and of course EBAY :)) Now I know it has its knockers and downsides but it was the #1 stop for finding many of my lost minis BUT it was a nightmare of bid rigging, sniping, buyers who they get pulled from sales because the auction didn’t hit what they wanted, figures being lost or broken in post, etc.

Unfortunately there are now a multitude of places to find your old thumbnails 🙂

Akitas Training – Some Do’s and Don’ts

admin

The Akita is a breed native to Japan and since then it has circulated throughout the world. This dog is in high demand due to its traits and long history. Genetically speaking, the Akita is one of the oldest dog breeds in the world.

The Akita has a long and storied past and was at one point on the brink of extinction. Originally bred in ancient Japan, it was first used for hunting dogs. A pair of Akitas were used to attack the bears while a trained eagle flew overhead to distract the bear. In addition to hunting, they were also used to protect the emperor’s children, sometimes leaving the children alone with the dogs as if the dogs were the kangaroos.

Akitas are known to have an unsavory temperament. They are said to be temperamental and destructive. Although there are instances where the Akita can be destructive, Akitas are well known for being calm dogs that are loyal to their masters. However, these dogs need a lot of care. An Akita is very loyal to his master once he has bonded with his master and his family. He would get to the point of protecting you and your family once he sensed that there is imminent danger ahead.

Akita puppies need to be trained early to avoid undesirable behaviors. Training at a young age to be sociable and comfortable around people could go a long way in making sure they feel comfortable around strangers.

It is important that your pup knows what his limits are. Some things you do with your Akita puppy can be cute and fun as a puppy, but when he gets older it can be difficult. Remember that an Akita can grow up to 120 pounds. That weight can be significant, especially for a muscular dog like the Akita.

An Akita is a working dog and it is important to understand that they are happiest when there is a task to be done. Working dogs need to feel like they are busy. It may be as simple as running with you or gardening, but these activities help your Akita feel less anxious and more loved.

Simple things like letting your dogs sleep on the bed or playing tug of war with him or her can delay the training you’ve already laid the foundation for. Just letting your Akita sleep next to you might seem like just affection, but you’re actually getting on the same level with your dog. He or she may see this as a sign of weakness and cause your dog to disrespect and obey you.

The game has to be thought through thoroughly. Games like tug of war when learned at a young age can get you into a lot of trouble because when you carry it into adulthood, it can be difficult, especially when your Akita grows to 120 pounds or more.

How to lose belly fat while driving!

admin

Many diet programs will never share such a secret with you.

Maybe they don’t want you to know this simple trick because they’re afraid of losing a customer, or maybe they don’t know any better.

Fortunately for readers looking for such information, I am going to share this insider secret for free.

Just to briefly introduce myself to this topic, I’ll give you a quick overview of myself and why I know this type of information.

I am an actual customer myself and am lucky to have Mike Geary, a professional and certified nutritionist who is also my personal trainer to help me with my health program.

I started seeking his advice and actually got into his training program after getting bored of my beer belly, even though I haven’t had a beer in what seems like decades! This simple exercise will probably surprise you because it does NOT burn fat itself, but the results will speak for themselves once you start flattening your stomach.

This simple but effective exercise is called “abdominal vacuums.”

In Mike’s own professional words, he says that this “abdominal tuck” exercise helps immensely in tightening the lazy stomach muscles that will be toned through this type of physical activity. He even wrote a Fitness Training Guide and goes into detail explaining exactly why this is happening and the exact methods needed to circumvent such another occurrence.

Through its simplicity and my personal daily hectic work life, I have found that the best time for me is to do it while driving on my daily commute.

Now, a word of warning: doing it while driving may not be for everyone. Make sure you continue to be a safe driver.

If you find that this exercise may distract from your driving ability, do not attempt this exercise while driving.

After all, this exercise can be done anywhere and at any time of the day that you prefer.

The sit-up exercise strengthens the deeper transverse abdominis muscles and thus pushes back that “beer belly” as I like to call it.

The main reason I chose to do them while driving is that no matter what position you are in, you can do them standing up or even sitting down. It also makes my boring and obligatory commute worthwhile as I don’t waste precious time just driving but also get exercise on my commute.

So, let’s move on to this simple procedure for this abdominal workout.

I’ll break it down into four simple steps for you to follow:

  • Step 1: Begin by inhaling as deeply as you can.
  • Step 2: Begin to exhale, while pulling your stomach in as far as it will go.
  • Tip: Try to imagine that you are being challenged to try to touch your spine with your belly in. This works wonders for me.
  • Step 3: Hold this position for about 10 seconds (at first) while taking a short breath.
  • Step 4: Repeat this procedure several times.

It’s! You just managed to do the “Ab vacuum” exercise successfully.

An advice…

As with all workouts, start slowly and increase intervals when you feel like the exercise is getting too easy for you.

For example, start tummy tucks in for about 10 seconds before increasing this interval to a longer period, say 15 or 20 seconds, as you get used to this simple but highly effective exercise.

As I mentioned earlier, this exercise doesn’t increase fat burning, it just helps you flatten that bulging stomach that has deep, lazy abdominal muscles.

If you really want to have a deep stomach line with those strong “ripped abs” you need more help in the form of a professional training program, definitely much more than this simple exercise.

Remember that there is no real price value when it comes to your health and looking healthy and attractive. You will need to get some weekly exercise and eat properly. The funny thing I’ve learned through my own personal experience is that you can still eat almost anything you want as long as it’s in moderation when you train weekly for just a few minutes a day. Our bodies can maintain a good tone as long as the correct exercises are done.

A good typical example would be the belly push, where through misinformation and logical sense I would suggest that most people think they should start doing a lot of crunches. That can’t be further from the truth, unfortunately. Crunches will tone your abdominal muscles, but will still be below your belly bulge, especially if it’s belly fat.

So even though your abdominal muscles would become rock solid with lots of painful crunches, you still can’t visually see them!

The typical example given above is one of many more problems where professional advice should be taken, either through a professional trainer or at least invest in a professional authority book on the subject, where the author has or had a career. as a professional trainer and Nutritionist. This way, he won’t waste his time and energy on bad training practices, which will get him nowhere or, at best, have minimal results. Take this friendly advice from my own personal experience, as I’ve learned it the hard way.

Women are not respected for being promiscuous

admin

A man defends his honor by fighting and beating an opponent. A woman defends her honor by fighting unwanted suitors and reserving her virginity for a mate of her own choosing. One of the biggest insults a man can use against another man is to say that his mother is sexually promiscuous.

Someone who has never had penetrative sex is called a virgin. Female virginity is valued by men due to the territorial nature of male sexuality. Men do not like to be compared to other male lovers. Men prefer an inexperienced lover so they can focus on their own arousal. A sexually inexperienced woman is more likely to accept anything a man offers without question because she has no expectations of other men.

Young women are often not assertive. They may give in to men’s persistent attempts to have sex with them only to find that they are disrespected afterwards. Married women know that their husbands always want more sex than they are willing to give. They also know that men are attracted to women all day long, regardless of any relationship. So women don’t always feel that their efforts to please and satisfy their partner’s sexual needs are respected.

Some women enjoy casual sex and are happy to have superficial sexual contacts just for fun and ego. They like to chat or have a romantic dinner. Sex is a small price to pay. They have sex when they choose. They can go weeks without sex and no one notices. A wife does not have this luxury. Women who have relationships with men have sex much more frequently and regularly than women who have casual sex. This is one of the injustices that women face. Promiscuous women are considered more sexual than loyal women.

Logically, since men themselves are tempted by promiscuity, one might expect men to look favorably on promiscuous women. But the opposite is true, men don’t like women who are too easy sexually. They suspect that she is having sex with them for the benefits (like going on paid dates).

Many men pay for the maintenance of other men’s progeny without even knowing it. Other than using a DNA test, a man cannot tell if a child is his or not. If a woman is less sexually compliant, she is more likely to be loyal to a man. The problem with this approach is that it also means that a woman is less compliant with all men, including her husband.

A man wants a woman to be excited about sex but only about him. A man marries a sexually unadventurous woman because he appreciates the benefit of her love for him. In the long run, women have sex with a man they love. But this love has nothing to do with reaching orgasm.

Women have two main reasons for having sex. Some women who have sex solely for personal gain without any emotional attachment. They have sex for money or for personal ego. The second motivation is, of course, the romantic love that leads to marriage. Women do not have sex to enjoy sexual liberation and pleasure; otherwise, they would pay to have sex like men do. Women rarely have sex with more than one man at a time. Women cheat when their current relationship is emotionally unsatisfactory or when they hope to improve their lifestyle with a more successful man.

The most prominent sexual behavior of women is their desire to please men. Some women suggest that they use men for sex. Women use men to earn money or for some other advantage, such as career advancement or marriage. They are also arousing, such as bragging about orgasm to satisfy your own or a lover’s ego. Female promiscuity has nothing to do with a woman’s responsiveness. A woman cannot use a man’s body to enjoy sexual arousal and liberation the way a man can use a woman’s body.

Not all men (especially if they are married) appreciate the approach of an attractive woman. Women are not usually sociable with men they don’t know. So a man suspects that his motives are sexual. He may feel pressured by his own assumption that sexual performance is expected of him.

Sex is first and foremost a male biological need that, at least for some men, can be satisfied by any woman. A woman can be described as a wicked temptress simply because she is attractive to men. We talk about women of pleasure or sinful women. It’s not that women are inherently evil (or enjoy sexual pleasure), but their bodies tempt men into illicit sex, leading to social problems like unwanted pregnancies and broken marriages.

If women viewed sex the way men do, they would be pregnant all the time. For reproductive reasons, a woman can consciously choose who she will mate with. Women have no reason to want to have sex and many reasons not to want it. Only when a woman is attracted to a man and feels an emotional connection does she naturally feel willing to have sex. This desire is more emotional and romantic than erotic.

Many men…are prone to seek intercourse from all available girls, while insisting that the girl they marry must be a virgin when they first have intercourse with her. It is the man, more than the woman, who imposes this inconsistency in the social code. (Alfredo Kinsey 1953)

Real Estate

buy a condo

admin

Owning a condo is considered a hybrid type of ownership, as it is not a traditional ownership structure. There are some characteristics that can help in the definition of condominium ownership. An individual property unit is the space that falls within the limits that have been specified. This can include multiple rooms, as well as an interior wall dividing different rooms into that specific unit. It also includes storage areas and balconies. The unit is airspace with no land, but is still considered real property.

Common areas

The common areas are the other parts of said property. This is the area shared by all unit owners. This includes the roof, lobbies, hallways, foundations, floors, elevators, ceilings, and basement, etc. Others are facilities such as water, gas, electricity and heating. There are other areas such as the parking lots, the pool, etc., which are also part of the common areas shared by the owners of the units.

ownership interest

Ownership interest in the property is conveyed through deed. The owner can sell his interest if he wishes. Like other types of property, ownership can be held by one individual, or by two or more than two individuals, by a wife and husband, or by a business entity.

Taxes

As is the case with other types of property, condo unit owners have to part with property taxes as required by law. Each unit and interest in common areas is generally considered as a package and is assessed and assessed on an individual basis. Common areas are not assessed or taxed separately. The owner is responsible for taxes within his own parcel.

Associations

Typically, condominiums or unit owners associations are established when condos are created to make sure that all owners can maintain and manage the entire property as a team. A third-party property manager is typically assigned to handle all property development and management. There are some developments that have a community of owners and a community of condominium owners where they have responsibilities in different aspects related to the administration of the developments, as well as their maintenance.

There are governing documents that are created to offer guidance on how associations are supposed to operate. They also include some rules that all tenants, owners, and guests must abide by. These are the legal documents that can specify anything, including the type of pets allowed and the consequences of breaking any of the stated rules. Some of the consequences may include a lawsuit, enforcement, and even fines.

monthly expiration

The association receives payments at different times of the year and this is the responsibility of the unit owners. These dues cover maintenance and management expenses. Usually fixed and variable expenses owed like taxes, pool maintenance, gardening, garbage collection, building insurance, and also something to add to the reserve fund. If the money in a reserve fund is not enough, a special assessment may be charged to homeowners to handle improvements and special projects, such as furnace and roof repairs, etc.

How Things Used To Be – Stoop Ball – Game Rules

admin

Lucky Strike Green had come home after the war, as had Dubble Bubble gum. Spaldeen roses could also be bought again, but now for ten cents instead of the pre-war nickels. There weren’t many new cars on the streets yet, so there was still plenty of room for punch ball, stickball, association football, and all our other games.

We thought that the end of the war meant that all war was over forever. We did not know that our envoys had agreed to partition Korea along the 38th parallel, that the Soviets had put Kim Il-Sung in charge north of the parallel, or that he intended to reunify the peninsula under communist control. Even if we had known, we wouldn’t have imagined that any of it could have any effect on any of us.

In the fall and winter we play roller hockey and association football. Starting in March we switch to punch ball and stickball. Marble season started on the Saturday after Halloween, but stoop ball lasted all year. The only thing that stopped the stoop ball was too much snow on the ground.

We follow the usual rules: one infielder, one outfielder; nine-inning games; if the ball hits the curb you’re hitting from, is caught before it bounces, or leaves the foul lines, you’re out. One rebound was a single, two a double, etc. If you hit the wall of the building across the street on the fly and the ball doesn’t catch before it hits the ground, it’s a home run. Imaginary baserunners advanced one base on a single, two on a double.

The only difference was that instead of a portico, we hit the S-shaped ledges that ran three feet above the curb on the wall on the 88th Street side of 575 West End Avenue. They were perfect for hitting: seven-inch-tall white S-curves that stretched from the face of the wall between the ground-floor windows. If you hit the sweet spot on the convex part of the ledge, the ball shoots off a clothesline too high to catch before hitting 585 on the other side of the 88. Hit above the sweet spot and jump up or the ball hit by above the third floor of 585 and was easy to catch when it bounced. I hit the concave part of the S and the ball went into the infield.

Just as the 575 was perfect for hitting, the 585 was perfect to have in the outfield. It had battlements up to the third story that caused the ball to bounce in haphazard ways that the outfielders couldn’t predict. Matt: tall, big hands, good jumper, stood with his back to 585 ready to jump, or spin, back up and grab the rebound. He was our best outfielder, but he had a weak arm and couldn’t hit.

The two hardest guys to take out were Blue Book and Esau. Blue Book hit with a submarine move and could usually drop on singles unless Nate, who had been a soccer goalie in Switzerland and had the quicker hands at blocking, was playing infield.

Esau was our toughest pitcher. He punched straight down from so close to the wall that he sometimes skinned his knuckles. The Spaldeens were in high spirits. He bounces one off the sidewalk and it would go up to the third floor. When Esau hit the point at the bottom of the ledge, the spaldeen shot out going ninety and bounced two inches beyond the curb. Nate had to play in the middle of the street just to keep it on a solo.

When Blue Book and Esau were on the same team, they would load the bases with singles the first few times they got up, then go for home runs or keep hitting runners until they had fifteen runs to go and won on the kill rule. If Esau had been taller and a better outfielder, he might have been Number One in the Blue Book Stoop Ball Hall of Fame. As it was, he only made it with his batting.

The next evolution of e-commerce: Smart TV

admin

The rapid development of mobile technologies has enriched the notion of e-commerce and has expanded the ‘place’ of purchase and revenue streams for merchants. Consumers can now shop and pay not just in a store, but also at home, at work, on the bus, and on the go. The smartphone and m-commerce have thus blurred the boundaries between the online and offline worlds.

Time has become an extremely valuable commodity and to a large extent defines the choice of products, services and retailers. Convenience is another important factor for consumers. Experts say TV commerce (or e-commerce) is an area for smarter new shopping and a way for merchants to engage with consumers in new ways.

Connected televisions or smart TVs, which have functions such as Internet connection and streaming, are becoming a standard among television brands. According to some industry sources, the penetration rate of connected TVs was 20% in 2010 and will increase to 50% in 2013. In addition, platforms like Google TV, Apple TV and Roku for watching videos on demand (VOD) are increasingly popular. Thus, television is entering a whole new era, providing more opportunities for advertising, marketing, revenue generation, and viewer engagement. What are the key features of e-commerce?

  • Shopping. E-commerce solutions allow viewers to respond directly to offers presented on their television screens and purchase products instantly using their existing remote controls and set-top boxes.

  • Information request. E-commerce applications allow viewers to request more information about products, services or events directly from the content they are watching on television with a few simple clicks on the remote control.

  • Voting and voting. E-commerce solutions provide additional opportunities for the viewer to interact with shows, advertisers, and networks. Thus, viewers can vote for your shows, shows, news reports, game shows, sporting events, etc. favorites.

  • The immediate response. Instant feedback from the viewer means immediate response for the trader. Thus, companies gain valuable customer data for further research and targeted marketing.

The e-commerce paradigm has the potential to turn televisions into a powerful business tool that allows merchants to conduct business through television. E-commerce makes it possible to reach new and existing customers through increasingly popular Internet-connected televisions and set-top boxes. The entire purchase can be done with nothing more than a series of clicks on the remote. Consumers tend to respond very positively to companies that take the time to understand their needs and provide excellent customer service.

Secrets of how to sell a house by owner

admin

When it comes to selling your home by owner, it can be confusing. What forms to use. How to promote it so that people find you. Even how to take care of closing and recordings. However, there is an overlooked part of selling that most people don’t give enough thought to.

Money.

This is how the deal is made. After all, if the buyer doesn’t get the funds in his hand, he can’t close. And in this crazy real estate market, where everyone is wondering if we are recovering or entering another bubble. If the house improves, mortgage loans will become easier or more difficult (as it has been lately).

One of the lesser known, but most powerful sales techniques when it comes to selling your home is a lease option. This is also known as rent-to-own. A lease option is basically finding a well-qualified tenant/buyer who wants to buy your home, but for one reason or another, simply can’t qualify right now. It may be due to some strain on your credit from the last crisis or your lender requiring a larger down payment than you currently have saved.

Either way, these are people who really want to buy, have the income to support the purchase of the property, and just need a little more time to get financing.
And this market is huge. The number of people in this category is huge right now. A good 80% of people who want to buy and can afford it just can’t get approved right now.

To sell your home quickly in this market, for your own account and the full purchase amount (since there are no fees or commissions when selling with a lease option), this method can be a great solution. The buyers are there, and if you can wait a year or two to get paid… this can get you out of your payments and get you the best possible price.

If you’re worried about owning…don’t. Selling with a lease option attracts buyers who want to buy, not just serial renters. There is a big difference in their way of thinking. A renter just wants a place to live for a period of time and move on. They won’t clean, they don’t care about repairs, and they will usually leave the house in not the best condition.

When you deal with buyers, you get a big family that wants to buy your property. Not just moving from one place to another, but a real buyer who will take care of all the repairs, keep the place perfectly clean and make sure the payments are made on time, because they don’t want to lose their option.

You, as the seller, also benefit from the market or the higher payments you’ll receive, you won’t have to deal with all the daily maintenance, and you’ll get full sales price when you pick it up…without paying. a commission or fee from a real estate agent… which generally amounts to more than 10% of the price. This works great if you don’t have a lot of equity or if your mortgage is going up.

Selling your home for lease or rent-to-own is one of the best-kept secrets on how to sell your home fast and get the best price.
