Hey guys, so I'm a noob of a couple of months and my little army is coming along nicely. I popped into my nearby games workshop near uni and had a chat with one of the employees out of general interest as I plan to play the game one day. He was quite pushy to try and get me to just put my army on the table right away and start playing asap... but I want to assemble a larger army than one tactical squad one elite and an HQ before I play... and I also wanted to paint them all. Very nice chap, kept insisting they don't need painting before you play and they won't throw me out the shop for it but I insisted I wanted to have them painted before I played. Just because I'd prefer a properly painted army to play with.
Which brings me to my question. He encouraged me to bring in one or two models I'm painting and to paint with the other guys who paint in the shop because I can learn tips and tricks etc to paint better. this appealed. My question is: can any of you guys who do this and paint/put together your models at the local GW let me know what I should be bringing and what they would provide? I sense there will be little to nothing provided but I've never done this before so I simply don't know. Also, what should I expect as a complete noob when I go there to do this for the first time? It's a little intimidating to be honest.
Finally, what would you guys recommend in regards to transporting the models? The GW guy was naturally quick to start selling the citadel stuff but that's obviously his job and I wanted to know what the seasoned hobbyists think I should be doing about safely transporting the minis.
Thanks in advance!
Is it possible to create?
I was offered gap insurance (a.k.a. debt cancellation agreement) for $895 for 2021 Honda CRV EX FWD non-hybrid model for 4 years by the dealer. The payments are broken into monthly installments of $18.75 x 48 payments = $223/year.
I have heard that if your car insurance also offers gap coverage, then the cost is ~$50-60 per year.
The gap coverage price difference is a lot. Is the gap coverage price negotiable with the dealer? If so, what is a reasonable price?
On this new system last night I installed the first Personal drive. Got everything set up and just for the heck of it, I tried installing Windows on the second drive with the first one still on the motherboard. Unlike the previous system, it went ahead and did it but it set up the windows boot menu. I guess that's okay but then when I removed the Work drive the original install will no longer boot and says there's errors and you can't even use the Windows tool to repair it. You just can't boot into windows anymore until you put the newer second Work drive back in. It seems really odd to break the original Windows install by simply removing the second drive with the second install. So either drive goes bad, you can’t boot into the remaining one. ??? It put the boot info on the second drive?
Over the years, setting up a dual boot Window system has gotten more and more complicated. Just installing Windows is now overly complicated. You need to jump through hoops and know some tricks just to install windows without an MS account or internet access. Shift + 10, oobe/ bypassnro
I'm trying to do a clean Windows 11 install for the first time with a Work drive and a Personal drive on a new build. In years past, I would simply unplug the first drive that had been installed and configured while installing and configuring the second. Then I would use the BIOS to boot the drive I wanted. I have tried using the Windows built-in boot menu but it always seems to mess things up.
On my previous build with SSD drives I couldn't even install Windows on the second drive with them both being in the system. It would see the new second drive and it would try to set up a partition and then install files and would fail until took everything apart and removed the first drive.
This is complicated by the fact that I haven't seen any bios manufacturer give you a simple way to disable a motherboard SSD for troubleshooting. So you have to pull apart the motherboard, heat, sinks and whatnot, possibly remove your video card to take out an SSD so that you can install windows on one without it finding and hosing the other.
Even if I go through the trouble of having one SSD on the motherboard at a time and getting Windows installed, are they going to mess with each other?
I had my last windows 10 set up this way and it seemed to be fine. But I went through the trouble of having only one drive on the system until Windows was installed and configured.
Has anyone had a problem with the passenger side glass cracking on a 2017 XT5? Came out from shopping on Oct 31st and crack had started on the bottom of the window, about 2" in from the front of the window. Now spread all the way up and across the window. The crack starts under the door panel and no indication of a chip from a rock. Car was a GM company vehicle which I bought under my employee plan in Jan 2018, with less than 1200 miles on it. Currently have just over 25K on it. We are spending the winter in Yuma and closest Cadillac dealer is in El Centro Ca. I will take car into their service dept next week but don't hold much hope for warranty as car companies are notarius for denying any kind of glass responsibility.
Would be interested to hear from anyone who has experienced this problem.
