I find it pretty strange how GW built up this whole narrative around the two crusades, one succeeded, one failed, and yet all we ever hear about is the city that failed, Embergard.

Whether it's the 2027 General's Handbook, Underworlds, or even Spearhead, the entire narrative focus is on Aqshy and Embergard. Meanwhile there's basically zero mention or follow-up on Verdigris, the city that actually succeeded.

Was this the plan from the start, or did GW pivot because they found Embergard made for better lore/game material? And with the 5th edition rumors floating around, I'm starting to wonder if we'll ever get more info on Verdigris at all.

I've lived in Lebanon for 10 years, and there's one thing that has always intrigued me: why are so many Lebanese such passionate supporters of the German and Brazilian national football teams?

Brazil, I can somewhat understand. With the millions of people of Lebanese descent living there, and their regular connections with Lebanon, it's easy to imagine how support for Brazil was passed on over the years.

But Germany? Lebanon has relatively few historical or cultural ties with Germany, and the Lebanese diaspora there is quite small compared to places like Brazil. Even some Germans I've spoken to seem puzzled by how popular their national team is in Lebanon.

So yes, I know it's become a tradition, but why? Why Germany specifically and not another country such as Canada, for example?

Is there a social, historical, or cultural reason behind this phenomenon, or is it simply something relatively random that, over the decades, turned into a trend and was passed down from one generation to the next? I'd be very interested to hear any insights.

I'm currently installing an ASUS Radeon 9070 XT on a Gigabyte B550M DS3H motherboard. The problem is that the GPU is quite long, and the rear end of the card extends directly over the SATA ports 3 and 4. As a result, I only have two SATA ports that remain easily accessible.

My questions are:

Is this normal ?

Is it safe to bend the SATA cables make them fit underneath the card? Is it even possible ?

Are there ultra-flat SATA cables designed for situations like this?

I've attached an image to illustrate the issue.

Any advice from people with a similar setup would be greatly appreciated!

He''s a personal favorite of mine because Gardus is not a warrior but a healer. He's been reforged not due to his martial prowess but because he stayed for his patient when chaos hit his hospital.

I mainly use Army Painter spray cans now. Unfortunately, from time to time, the spray nozzle gets clogged. I wanted to swap the nozzle from my Citadel spray cans onto the Army Painter ones, but they don’t seem to be the same size/format.

Does anyone know the name or type of nozzle used on Army Painter spray cans? Thanks!

The latest expansion for the roleplaying game set in the Age of Sigmar universe, Soulbound, focuses on the Bloodwind region, and more specifically on Carngrad. The book is packed with references to all the Warcry v1 warbands, along with tons of additional information.

I really get the impression that the teams at Cubicle7 , with the support of GW, have fully immersed themselves in Warcry lore and are exploring it in even greater depth.

Could Soulbound be the future of Warcry? At least from a lore perspective, it certainly seems that way, and I can’t wait to get my hands on this book.

PS : The Bloodwind map is part of the goodies made available in the futur expansion

I’d love to hear your thoughts on this, because I genuinely feel like the City of Ash box has generated more hype than almost any other AoS release in recent years.

In my local community, pretty much everyone loves the box, and even from a sales perspective it feels like it’s doing incredibly well. It honestly feels like GW stumbled onto something special here, but I can’t quite put my finger on what exactly makes it hit differently.

Do you think the AoS V5 launch box next year should take inspiration from City of Ash in terms of design, content, or overall vibe?
