Shitty Starfield lore is just called Starfield lore

Eliminator Squad: Las Fusil or Bolt Sniper?
Also, should I give a Bolt Carbine for Sergeant for the ability?

What does “all but” mean
Random Example: “He was all but dead”
Does this sentence mean, without any context, mean that ‘He’ is dead, or not dead? I feel like I see it used positively and negatively. Does the sentence mean “He was everything including dead” or “ He was everything except dead”? For the record, I am a native English speaker, I’m not sure if this is a problem other people have or if I’m uniquely overthinking things.

Does this look like writing?
First time trying to put writing on purity seals and used a 005 Micron Pen (.2mm).

The Sergeant of my first intercessor squad, Sul Antarnas. This is my first unhelmeted model, getting the eyes how I wanted them was a lot harder than I expected. It is also my first attempt at a fire effect, so I would appreciate some C&C on that specifically, but any feedback is welcome. The only thing that I don’t think I like is the green mask, it doesn’t really work with my darker scheme IMO. But it took me too many tries to get the eyes right and I don’t want to risk messing them up.

As an alternative to mechs, an exoskeleton would provide the strength and power to allow helldivers to have two heavy guns equipped in each hand. Basically, imagine an exoskeleton frame attached to two wristmounted Stalwarts, MG, or Maxiguns. However, they should provide no protection at all, because they are only there to boost strength. My understanding from the AMA is that we are not getting Mech customization and I assume that applies to all strategems. So maybe there could be two or three exoskeletons, one for each ‘heavy’ gun. In 40k, Agressors are my favorite unit, I think that nonchalantly raising your arm and replacing the enemy in front of you with a fine mist is extremely cool. To reiterate though, I think an exoskeleton should provide no protection.
The picture above is an Agressor from 40k, to show what I mean by wrist-mounted, but I would want the exoskeleton to be very small, just a frame and servos to carry the guns.

Personally, I think that Skyrim’s magic system is an upgrade to Oblivion. I’m not saying that everything about it is better, I wish it had Spell Crafting like everyone else, but I also missed Spell Effectiveness from wearing armor. Where Skyrim wins out for me is that Spells are held in your hands and it introduced the ability to “long cast” and have spells like flames; instead of being limited to fireball you could have a flamethrower. With mods like Apocalypse there’s so many spells I don’t need to craft any, even if it would be nice.
So my ideal magic system looks something like this:
— Spells are held in either hand or both. However, some spells can be equipped to a third button if you have two weapons or a shield equipped. Spells like flames cannot be used when both hands are holding something, but you can cast a weaker version of fireball by just holding out your weapon.
— If we’re in Hammerfell, Necromancy should be illegal, punishible by death.
— Spells Effectiveness decreases proportionally to the weight of your equipped armor.
— Make interesting, even if niche, spells. The example that comes to mind is “Make Wall” from Apocalypse. It spawns a long wall in front of you, for as long as you hold the button and have mana. Enemies have to walk around it, or you can use it to section them off. It’s pretty useful for when you’re low health and need a second to recover in peace.
