New Counter to Phantoms and TIE Swarm

You two really ought to get a room.

Care to join us?

I could leave it, but I appreciate the offer.

That's fair. I just didn't want to give you the impression I'm unfriendly or anything.

That's fair. I just didn't want to give you the impression I'm unfriendly or anything.

And yet you are an unfriendly person. You're not fooling anyone. Most people on these forums think you're an ass, despite how many likes you get for posting. You don't post to be helpful. You post to try and get people to like you.

Basically, you're an attention *****. How does it feel to want anonymous people's approval? You're a sad person and I pity you.

You aren't helping your case at all with posts like this.

I would hardly say an A-wing is a better arc dodger than a Phantom, Whisper will have a higher PS so he can Decloak move and barrel roll AFTER your "arc dodging" A-wings are set in place. Echo will be even with Tycho so it comes down to initiative and Jake without VI will never know for sure where a Phantom will be. (To avoid any confusion, when I say "Phantom" I mean the named ones with VI+ACD, just like when people say Falcon they mean Han Chewie or Lando not the ORS)

At any rate...

Why is it so hard to get good Eggs Benedict? It's not like poaching eggs is all that hard, and Eggs Benedict is easily the second best breakfast foodstuff (right after bacon). Sure, you'll see it on the occasional Sunday brunch menu, but why should such an amazing dish be reserved for one day out of the week?

Can i just say that while you guys have every right to have a row online in PM or in person...

If you've found out someones real name its a bit off to use it on a forum as a 'i know who you are' thing.

A lot of us have 'pen names' for a reason. I teach High School (only supply occasionally) these days but i also play in a fairly over the top industrial band. Last thing i want is kids I know at school googling the name on my Birth certificate and finding out about my personal life.. Plus nobody calls me by my christian name.. even my mum calls me Gadge. You only use my christian name if you work with me in education. I even *write* under the name Gadge these days.

So while you've not gone 'you are Dave Smith and you live at Lexington Place, Springfield, Alabama' publicly can you respect someones wishes to have a pseudonym.

I've had an online row on a wargames forum where someone thought they were scoring points by 'revealing' my given name on my driving licence.... it is no secret (and these days you can find some of my stuff in print as for example Jame 'Gadge' Smith or whomever) but i do like to keep my social life seperate from my work life at times.

Edit: thankfully, my original post is now unnecessary.

Hey Gadge, Who do you play with? I played in an industrial/punk sci-fi themed costume band for a while.

RENOIZED, we're signed to Juggernaut Services. we've got one album out so far 'I am your Sin' and a single 'defcon'

We're on the new label sampler with Defcon too which i'm pleased about as i co wrote it and its the first 'proper' released record I've had that i had a fair bit to do with rather than playing parts someone else wrote.

I hope you realize that absolutely nobody calls me that. No one. It's quite telling just how far you're willing to go to rustle my jimmies, including making up outright and obvious lies.

No lies man. Facts. From about...5 different people. Three of which have went out of their way to send me a PM about you to tell me that I shouldn't worry about you because you have social problems.

G'night, Michael.

Enjoy being alone.

you say facts, but have no context of those who are telling you this slander. you have no idea of who they are, they may well be just people that don't like him. that wouldn't make them biased at all right??? lol..

before spouting off stuff like that, make very sure you do have facts, this sounds like slander. and you wonder why people seem to have an aversion to you.. SMH

Don't do it man disengage it's really not worth it, both are trolls but at least ribann was trying to have a constructive conversation this time so he gets points for that.

WW is well known for derailing threads and picking fights, nothing you say will alter that no matter how reasonable.

this.. I like. would you mind if I shared this online.

No be my guest, i'd be overjoyed. More people hear the band the better.

We've also got a special offer on on the label at the moment. The label sampler album is on a download version where you pay what you think it's worth... even if you think if 50 cents... yeah you pretty much get 17 tracks for nothing legally.

So yeah spread the joy.

On a side note my wife plays keys in the band, another reason i think she's a cool lass.

I'm the guitarist/bassist (depends on the song) and backing vocals live.

Unsurprisingly you can find us on fb too so please do and 'like' us there as it all helps.

Edit: oops.. accidentally quoted myself rather than editing the post to say 'please like us on facebook too!'

Awesome. I just wanted to be sure .. even though it's on youtube.

a family that plays together, stays together.

I'll have to check it out, hopefully it's on google play

I have many many friends in bands and I love the creativity involved in that whole process.

It's a lot of fun, doing mini tours where we do back to back dates on weekends especially.

We're also pretty much all four of us xwing players (only Alex doesnt play yet) and like the same stuff so were friends as well as band mates.

that's awesome.. found you guys on facebook with a link from the video.. just subscribed.. haha..

my friends in California are more.. do your own thing, and my band friends in Illinois are cover bands mostly. I find it odd that the two are so different.

Thanks for the 'like' and apologies to everyone else for derailing this thread with an advert for my band.

If you're ever in the UK, you should come to my club night 'Nightmare', its the longest running (15 years) Industrial/EBM night outside of London in the country.

I'll even guestlist you :)

that would be awesome.. not sure when I'll get back to London town.. haha.. when my dad was stationed in Iceland back in the mid 70s we took a long weekend trip there, it was awesome. I miss traveling, it was always a good time.

Well my clubs in Nottingham, i meant it was the longest running night outside of London.

Slimelight in London is the oldest UK industrial night that is still running

another place in England I would love to go..

it's really cool in Nottingham

I moved here to work for GW in 2000 and its just so beautiful and so much to do and wicked nightlife i've never felt the urge to move.

Back on track a bit, as everyone comes here to work for GW they tend to stay when they leave GW and set up their own companies so loads of cool companies are based here (mantic, warlord, foundry etc)..most of my gaming group also work for FFG as freelancers.

another place in England I would love to go..

Just avoid Sherwood you don't want to be waylaid by merry men.

I used to teach at Heywood school near Bestwood/Sherwood... that was rough...kid stabbed in the dinner queue rough...

Hang on i'm on a board where in some states kids take guns to school... i guess it's not *that* rough :)
