Is acrid dying?

I noticed today after I played a run of ror2 after playing rorr all week that acrid seems to be more shiny and goopy(not goopy as in acid) in the most recent time compared to the scaley and spikey younger acrid from rorr. As far as I know acrid is a genetically made creature, so does this mean his genes are slowly falling apart?

Weaknesses of my army

What I have is as follows:
Iron-master attached to 6 thunderkyn
Champion attached to 5 hearthguard
Memnyr strategist attached to 6 steeljacks (weapons not built yet for jacks)
10 hearthkyn warriors between 2 sagitaurs
1 kapricus carrier
10 beserks
1 HLF
2 earthshakers
3 pioneers

That equates to 1,605 points.
I will cut the earthshakers in the full plan as they don’t fit my play style very well.
My future list right now is getting as follows:
2nd HLF
10 yaegirs
(5 in kapricus, 5 on home objective)

Now that equates to 1,855 points.
My questions are:
What should I do with the remaining points?
Add buri? Add berehk? Idk.
Out of the thunderkyn squad, beserk squad, and steeljack squad, what 2 should be placed in the hekaton?
what are some fallbacks of the list?
Do cheeseburgers go well with fries?

I have been collecting these questions for a while now and would love y’all’s help.

Is a squad of yaegs split between 2 kapricus carriers overkill?

I have a kapricus right now and I want to get yaegirs, so I was just wondering if getting another for dual firing deck is worthwhile for how many points it costs

Starting out digital art

My setup right now is a galaxy tab s7 fe, a random drawing glove off of Amazon, a wacom one stylus (the single button one), and a bellemont paper-feel screen protector.

My software right now is some usage of hipaint, low usage of ibispaintx, like 7 animations in flipaclip, and an Un-claimed 6 month free trial to clip studio paint.

I ask what nibs I should use (rubber, felt, titanium or plastic) and when I drawn on ibis (or hipaint but I’m commuting to ibis) the brushes just don’t quite feel right and my lines feel wrong compared to when I draw physical, not sure how to explain it but they just don’t flow right for my sketching and I’m wondering if I’m missing something to start to handle digi art right.

Where to put my little guys in transports

I have (as for transports) as follows:
a hekaton, 2 sagitaurs, and a kapricus carrier.
To put stuff places, I have as follows:
10 beserks
10 hearthkyn
6 steeljacks + memnyr strategist
6 thunderkyn + iron-master
10 yaegirs (soon, I don’t have ‘em yet)

I can get more transports, I still have 410 points to go until 2k. (Cutting earthshakers since they consistently underperform)

Edit: sry of I am yapping to much for 3 back-to-back posts

How do you usually get each of your units where they want to be?

For example, hearthguard usually work well for deep striking and detonating a unit.

It’s just that I find it hard to get my 10 beserks and 6 steeljacks to where they shine, such as steeljacks holding an objective or beserks smashing something important.

In y’all’s opinion, do the cthonian earthshakers hold up to the 110 points they are worth?

In my relatively small amount of games with one unit of them from the cthonian prospect box, it seems like the cthonian earthshakers just aren’t pulling their weight compared to other heavy hitters like hearthguard or thunderkyn.

I’m I using the wrong loadout? I use breacher ordnance on both.

Does my way of how I combined these make sense?

Base flag & center symbol: demiboy
Left chevron: panromantic
Right chevron: gyneflexible

I did it like this to show the identity is the main part, and then the 2 sexuality chevrons point to eachother to show they are part of the split attraction model, and then the symbol in the middle for fun.

Also where could I get a professional render of this, like no black lines, proper and even ratios, that sorta thing?

Kin, have I cooked myself?

My friends all agree that I may have doomed myself with the most egregious paint scheme based of deep rock galactic.
High parts of shoulders are caution tape
Low parts of shoulders are leather
Undersuits depend on what unit looks more like a DRG character, for example blue for hearthkyn warriors since they look like scout, ETC
Copper on high plates of main body armor
Silver on regular pieces of armor and mechanical stuff
And different colored visors for each unit
I am also going to paint my vehicles silly things like a 1950’s car for the kapricus or a u-haul for my hekaton

This is my first time painting. Have I cooked myself?

Worthy expansion into 2K??

What I’ve got:

Carries 5 beserks each
 
1 kapricus defender
Midfield support
 
2 cthonian earthshakers
Backfield
 
1 brôkhyr iron-master

Midfield support & optional firing deck for yaegirs
 
 2 cthonian earthshakers
Backfield shooty
 
1 brôkhyr iron-master

Attached to ironkin steeljacks granting  CP reduction & YP manipulation
 
10 cthonian beserks
 Pushy up and stuff
 
10 hearthkyn warriors
Backfield defense
 
20 hernkyn yaegirs
Infiltrate before the game starts and grab objectives early while being annoying to enemy
 
3 hernkyn pioneers
Mess up enemy frontline formations
 
6 ironkin steeljacks with melee weapons
Walkin’ around downtown

I am running needgaârd and farseekers.

Yaegirs are infiltrating,
then bikes take advantage of the chaos with beserks taking on something big,
then steeljacks hold what’s been softened and hekaton moves to a proper firing lane and hearthguard smash the opponent’s response,
and all the while earthshakers are raining Battle shocks with hearthkyn as their flexible defense which could push up later if needed.

Btw on champion I am using “eye for weakness”, on iron-master I am using “writ of acquisition”, and on memnyr I am using “nomad strategist.

The champion is likely going to already be hitting assailed targets so +1 to wound rol sounds favorable, memnyr strategist is very well protected so yoinking leftover hernkyn stuff Into reserves sounds pretty fun, and iron-master is constantly shooting so generating lots of YP sounds great.
