Aircrafts: Are they Viable

I play Robot Legions and Alien Hive. For both teams I have through my collecting acquired “aircraft” units. When I look at how they are played they seem terrible to be honest. They can fly in and out. Making them appear on turn 2, since turn 1 is not allowed (right?), fly outside turn 3 just to return turn 4. Or am I missing something?
Are they useable somehow?
So much points to appear for only two turns seems terrible tbh.

Anyone that could help giving me advice on how they could be useful? If they are that is.

Hi again!

I have some questions that me and my partner are discussing when playing and want clarification on.

1.1 Evasion chips:

We understand the core idea that evasion chips makes it so an attack misses. But we were in a situation where Alek did not have enough damage to get through the enemy shield with his basic attack.

I was of the mind that it was an attack that used up an evasion chip instead of "hitting the creature but the armor soaked up all the damage", the creature jumped aside instead, while my partner was not so convinced since the attack would do 0 damage anyways so why would it use up the evasion chips?

1.2 Also, as I write, I started to wonder how evasion chips works against an ability like Aleks ability to put poison chips on enemies. Are those dodged too?

2. I play Grigory so I take a lot of aggro, and have "fainted" but my partner has finished up the fight and won. When one guard faints/"dies" is that guards bag reset?

As in all green and red chips are removed? Or does the bag stay unchanged?

3. We met a combination of creatures where one of the creatures targeted Grigory and "stole one green cube. Is that cube placed on the creatures AP slot as active or inactive or is it returned to the supply?

Reason I ask is because other other creature we met read: Take all green AP cubes from target and put in its AP slot.

The first only say steal but the other say take and place. Are they the same thing or do they work differently?

Hi!

So I want to make it so that the energy shields that I have attached are there for "a reason". So I was thinking on creating like a bullet or laser impact, a small explosion.

I just do not know how I would create like a "explosive hit" in small scale and make it look some what good.

Any tips?

Hi!

Me and my partner have just begun our journey. As a reward we got a singing stone at one point. Only the stone, not an ability.
I know the stones can be put under the armor/weapon if you have slots enough for it, and that you add a chip to your bag if you choose to do that.
Does the stones do anything else other than that?

Priming the minis and painting, how to protect the transparent parts?

As the title say, I always prime the minis and then paint them, As I look at the assembly instructions it looks like some of the transparent parts are integrated, as in that they can not be attached after everything else is attached.

How did people work around this? What was your solution?

A while ago I asked on a server if anyone knew if you, with the right conditions, can hit a helicopter as you shoot a mortar. Or if it just is an invisible shell that then calculates where the impact should be.
Well I got my answer.
I had landed in Monty, unloaded supplies, next to me an ally was using the mortar. AS I swing around, I get into his path just as he shoots, and I got teamkilled by my own mortar. He was in shock and I just laughed. It was absolutely epic.
So now we know that you can hit helicopters that are in the path of a mortar shell.

Not as epic but still funny, was suppling with a Huey heli to Entre Deux. Wanted to make a loop you do with the littlebirds, well… I did not calculate the physics with the lates update. So as I flip around the Huey does not level, so I start to nosedive with the belly of the helicopter a few inches from the radio tower. At the last second I get it to level a little so it crash-lands without exploding or burning, or me dead, I jump out and turn to unload the supplies, just to get shot immediately by an enemy tank xD
I can’t imagine his view of the whole ordeal, see me survive and then gets to shoot me.

That is all, thought these two incidents were to funny not to share.
People reading this, got any good hilarious Arma Regorger stories to share aswell?

Hi!

I am looking for arma servers outside WCS But I have a hard time finding some.
Some servers I would like to try is:
Ukraine War servers, which ones are good?
Worl war 1 and/or 2 servers: I know Iron (something) 1944 by MHGaming should be out there but I get no hits.
Vietnam server names.

Any otehr suggestions that people find are good?

So I play on this server that has started to crash like something insane lately. It is american based and from what a few people said iot is increased Ddos attacks from Iran.
Or that is what they belive.

But could it be that people have code in the mods, say if one or more mod is made by an Iran supporter, that makes it so that it is the players that unknowingly initiate the packedge loss?

Hi!

I hope it is not disrespectful or too selfish to ask for help like this.

I am feeling increasingly trapped in life due to my health issues.
I have a lot of chronical hinderances that drains my energy to “make the right choices” although I never stop to try and make the right choices.

It is a mix of astma, adhd, eds (weaker limbs in the body), ibs, food allargies, low immune system and I do not ever feel full, so I have a hard time not getting overweight.
I am often sick or often feel sick. For 2 years I have felt like I am comming up with a cold the majority of the time. Like all year around for 2 years.

I am reaching a breaking point where I start to feel so sick that even if my current job is great , my bossa nd collegues are so kind to me and accommodating, I have the least work burden among my colleagues, I still cannot manage the job in the end. And it is absolutely crushing my self-confidence and lofejoy.

The days that I feel good, which gets fewer and fewer the older I get, the discipline to choose right type of foods and exercise is there, but I slowly break down, or so it feels, so slowly it becomes harder and harder.

The healthcare system is trying but everything ends up with medication treatments. Honestly I would like to get away from that but as of today I do not function without many them. If I stop allergy medicines I start coughing like crazy. If I do not take adhd meds I am so sluggish in the head it is like I am exhausted or burned out. If I do not take inflammatory the pain in my joints burn up, if I do not take my stomach medicine I continue being constipated.
Every part of my life is becoming a struggle.

I saw this mini documentary about John Chang and what he was able to do and I would very much like to meet him, or someone within the same practice. I understand that this is not a “one time miracle” treatment, there will be work to be done afterwards, I am after some kind of help to get some relief from much of my ailments and chronical pain so I have energy left in my life to make good healthy choices and not feel like my body is on the verge of breaking down, in the long run to reduce a lot of the medicine I am taking, living a more natural life.
As I said when I feel good I have a hard time not doing too much in my life, like this sunday I was on a walk with friends, I had walking sticks and back support and had a great walk. It felt soo good.
The pain in my body afterwards holds on today, 4 days later, and affects my sleep so much that I honestly can't sleep. The pain runs so deep that regular pain killers do not have the greatest effects. I have so many dreams and things I want to do but all these illnesses is creating this huge obstecle imprisoning me in myself.

Apologize if this is the wrong forum or if this request would be considered disrespectful somehow. If you have other insights other than meeting John that you believe could help I gladly read what you share.
