Note: I'm not sure are those values current, but this was the closest info that I've found for the 9th edition of WH 40kĮDIT: I've found quite a detailed analysis (from a modern point of view) of WH40k tanks: In contrast, both Land Raiders and Baneblades are treated with the utmost respect as artefacts. Leman Russ tanks are relatively cheap and mass-produced on a story level, used in great numbers as an "armoured fist" smashing through the enemy. However, this is because the Baneblade is in a completely different category of units than Russ and Land Raider which is called "Lords of War" and it is reserved for either super-heavy units or super-powerful heroes (for example, Space Marines have a super-heavy tank called Astraeus, which is even more powerful than Baneblade, with power level 35 and cost 675 points). Still, the Raider has stronger armour and more powerful offensive capabilities.īut if we consider a Baneblade Heavy Tank, we can see that it is a clear winner: If you'd want to look at a pure tank, such as Predator (8/120), you could see that Russ has a certain advantage. It has a power level of 15 and cost 285 points, but part of it might come from the fact, that a Land Raider is considered also as a transport unit. For example, a squad of 4 Space Marines Intercessors with a sergeant has a power level 5 and a base cost of 20 points per unit (which can be modified by adding equipment), while a squad of 10 Gretchin has a power level 2 with a cost of 5 points each.Īs you can see, a single tank has a power level of 10 and cost 140 points. Without looking for details, each model in the WH40k is described as having a certain "power rating" as well as a "point value", which offers a bit better granularity showing how "good" a given unit is. ![]() Visit Sony’s PlayStation.If you are happy with the answer from the tabletop game, there we can have a clear winner:.Keep an eye on our News page for detailed information after the stream.Watch our livestream on Friday, April 28th, starting at 2:00 PM Central (19:00 UTC) on our Twitch and YouTube channels.Destroying the Orks will make the Ork content available to all users (for purchase or as rewards) the same mechanic will apply to the Chaos forces and their in-game content.

In the US, however, it has not been prevalent for nearly as long. If you live or travel to Europe you will know that EMV has been in use for over a decade (it actually began in France in 1992). The conversion to EMV Card Readers happened fast and now it is rarer to swipe your card than it is to ‘insert your chip.’ EMV Card Reader’s Around the World By July of 2016, fully 71% of all card transactions were conducted with chip cards. In five short months that number had grown to 36%. And that was seven months before the change in possible liability was enacted. In the case of businesses using Square Stand and Reader, in March of 2015 the number of chip card transactions was only 17% of all transactions. The effect of the liability on merchants has produced a steady growth of chip card transactions. ![]() As of October 2015, if a customer uses a fraudulent chip card and the merchant does not have an EMV card reader, that merchant could be liable for the fraud. This is very important because of the ever-increasing amount of credit card fraud. Last not least, if smart chip card programming can’t be done with commercially available imaging software, CardWerk will be happy to develop card issuance software from scratch for you.What is an EMV Card Reader? Development of EMVĮMV® developed and managed by American Express, Discover, JCB, Mastercard, UnionPay, and Visa - is a global standard for credit cards that use computer chips to authenticate (and secure) chip-card transactions.1 EMV chips encrypt bank information making it far more secure than the old magnetic-stripe cards. One of our specialties is the integration and customization of commercial card imaging software. This enables our customers to offer a coordinated personalization process that embraces database driven chip card encoding and smart card printing. The resulting system can then combine card printing and chip encoding. Our smart card printer/encoder integration/consulting package contains everything you need for state-of-the-art: Typically we test a smart card printer with integrated chip encoder before handing it over to our customers. If need be we upgrade your existing printer with a well-tested encoder. We make chip encoder recommendations if your printer’s built in encoder does not meet your chip card specifications. Smart chip card encoders are also referred to as card readers, couplers or programmers.ĬardWerk provides vendor independent encoder integration services. This is a device very similar to a smart card reader/writer that is adapted to work as an encoder for memory cards and CPU cards. This can be a contact station or docking station with contactless 13.56 MHz (ISO 14443, ISO 15693) smart chip encoder. To program integrated circuit cards (ICC) a printer must be equipped with a smart card encoder or chip programmer. This can be done via contact (ISO7816) or via contactless (ISO 15693 & ISO 14443) interfaces such as Mifare, DESFire, Hitag, HID iCLASS, i-code, Legic and many more). They want to combine card printing and electronic personalization (a/k/k encoding, programming) of their cards. An increasing number of companies have moved from standard plastic badges to more sophisticated and secure smart cards. ![]() Similarly, it gets chained to him immediately.Īnother of these, but from Crimson land, is the Sharpened Letter Opener for Grave Robber. Why anyone wouldn't equip it is beyond me. Similarly, in Crystallines, Broken Key is the most god-tier character specific trinket imaginable.

(-Crescendo Box - alternative for Ancestor's candle trinket, Almost exactly as good) Ancestors candle - a great overall trinket for any dmg dealer Scratch my search request for the camo name, found it "Makoto Kobayashi" it is called, but you have to decide at buying it if you get it and can't purchase it separately afterward, that seems fishy, to say the least. I mean sure, you have that problem on any tier from tier 5 on (saw that alrdy myself, "enjoying" to see my New York being shot to scraps by enemy Tier 7 BB's), but in the end it comes down to the question of real world money.ĭo you have the name of that 7000 Doubloon Camo, so I could try to research the Wiki, if it states, which ships have access to it? Thanks for the screens, but when I look up, what I'd have to pay for it, that would be a hefty sum, 43€ + 25 € for the doubloons to buy that special camo.Īnd you do get to face Tier 10's on Tier 8 right, so being shot to scrap by them is not really a favorable scene. Kii would be a pretty fantastic money earner with that camo. 50% to cost, +20% to credits earned +100% to xp earned. It's essentially what the T10 ships get when you buy their perma camos (except they only cost 5000 doubloons). The box to the right shows the extra camo you can buy for the somewhat staggering sum (imo) of 7000 doubloons. They're perma camos earned from events that can be applied to any ship. This shows the camo in the left box that comes with the ship along with stats. ![]() Originally posted by Jack:Ok, here's a couple screenshots to clear things up on Kii: If that special camo, that is not stated on the wiki gives like 50+x% more credits, I would be inclined to consider it despite it screaming "powderkeg". However, I don't know this special camo (do you have the name of it?) and curiously it is also not stated on the wiki, it only states, that it gets type 10 premium camo like all premium BB's of that Tier (and also differentiating, some wiki articles state, that you get a reduction of service costs with it, some don't.). That screams "powderkeg" in my ears and that is not a good thing for Battleships ^^ Well I was researching now a bit on my own, comparing different Tier 8 Premium BB's (right now doing the same for Tier 7 Premium BB's) and I fairly ruled out the Kii, since it pairs a comparatively low main gun range with bad armor Characteristics, with, according to Wiki, easily being struck by citadel hits and bad torpedo protection. I don't remember the cost, but it's several thousand doubloons. It's not mentioned on the website as it doesn't come with the ship. You won't be able to see it until you own the ship. Kii and Ashitaka both have a special camo available for a separate purchase in game. They cost more to go to battle so it balances that a bit. I'll need to check that out to be 100% sure). ![]() Originally posted by Jack:Tier 8's get the -10% cost to service. What is your opinion on this questions as of March, soon April, 2020?Īnd since we're alrdy at it, any opinion on which BB would be the best in your opinion (Cruisers would also be ok, although I prefer BB's) is welcome :) So far I've always been a casual player, not focusing on one nation, thus my highest tier is tier 5, so I have no first hand experience. I simply don't know, who is more "right" in that regard, since with increase in tier you earn more credits, but service costs also climb up (although Premium ships are of cause better off here). Of cause with the tier increase the real money you gotta spend increases, so I'd like to stick to tier 7 or 8, BB's since they can do the most damage and stay longer in the fight.ġ) The threads I found were all old, the "youngest" was from somewhere in summer of 2019, so I don't know, how up to date the stuff is I've read there, since I was absent from WoWS for like one or two years.Ģ) What was common across all of them was a near equal share of people who believed, tier 7 would be the best to earn credits, others believed the same for tier 8. I've read many many many googled thread across different forums, however the concensus seemed to be that if you want to earn credits with a premium ship, it should be either Tier 7 or Tier 8, a few souls strayed out from this and suggested Tier 9 or even Tier 10. I just recently returned to WoWS after a long pause and I like the game to kill some time during the Corona crisis, now I'm about to use up my gifted premium days I got for just returning to the game after a long pause and I'm contemplating about getting a premium ship so I don't have to buy Premium time constantly to make credits. 5ĭeveloping children are particularly sensitive to disruption of attachment relationships through parental separation or death, along with the loss of social supports through displacement and destruction of community or culture. At least 10 000 children have died since the beginning of the conflict in Yemen owing to lack of access to vaccines and routine care. In addition, war disrupts access to routine preventive care. This has had a significant impact on access to care. 4 While some injuries are able to be treated, other conditions may take years to address, including post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety and other behavioural conditions that persist long after cessation of hostilities Recent reports from Syria, Yemen, Afghanistan, Palestine, and Iraq, and Ukraine have documented takeovers of healthcare facilities by militant groups for use as firing locations or hostage detention spots. 3 The United Nations has recently verified more than 260 000 cases of grave violations against children in more than 30 conflict situations across the globe over the past 16 years. ![]() 2 Many young people cease to be treated as children during conflict, with hundreds of thousands of children worldwide occupying combat roles as soldiers or mine sweepers, exploited for sex trafficking, and becoming human shields. Children are disproportionately injured and killed by unexploded ordnance, often during routine childhood activities of play, exploration or chores. 1 The size, physiology and limited mobility of children leave them more vulnerable than adults to severe and fatal injuries from arms fire, toxins and explosive devices that are the most common causes of paediatric casualties in recent wars. Although armed conflicts originate in the adult world, their effects often are most harmful to the lives of children in 21st century wars. ![]() But don't worry - you don't need to get them all in one go.

All we know that some insect pests have cycles between outbreak. We still do not know if we might have another huge outbreak of FAW in 2022. This is the worst FAW devastation that I’ve seen in Virginia in my 30-year career in entomology. We last had a fall armyworm outbreak in 2018. Have there been previous years where we’ve seen a similar explosion in army worms? Is this going to be the ‘new normal’ having FAW every year? So, we may see things go either direction. However, FAW are very susceptible to disease that occurs after wet rainy conditions, which we’ve also experienced. This fall armyworm outbreak occurred early enough for the moth population to still cycle through another generation here in Virginia, meaning more eggs might be deposited on lawns and more devastation from larval feeding may occur. The fall armyworm will complete a full generation of its life cycle (egg-larvae-pupa-adult moth) in about 30-40 days, depending on weather conditions. What do you think the rest of the year will look like in terms of armyworms? Is the worst behind us or yet to come? When storm winds blow north, they carry the moths to the mid-Atlantic, northeast, and Midwestern states.Ĥ. If climate change leads to dry (drought) conditions in the southern states, then high densities of these moths can build up. With climate change, it is possible that these moths are overwintering a little further north than usual. Does climate change play a role in spreading armyworms? If so, how?įall armyworms are tropical moths. We are advising to keep a close watch on all susceptible host plants.ģ. So, we are not sure exactly what crops might be at risk from this current strain of FAW. There have also been very few reports of FAW in late-planted sweet corn, which is often a magnet for FAW. Kentucky bluegrass, and Zoysiagrass for example have not appeared to have been damaged. Several people have reported FAW only eating the fescue grass and leaving behind crabgrass and other plants and weeds. While FAW are known to attack a number of crops such as grasses, small grains, corn, sorghum, soybean, and vegetables, this particular strain of FAW seems to be a bit more selective. Alfalfa and hayfields are also being attacked.Īlfalfa field in Virginia destroyed by fall armyworms last week. Lawns with turf-type fescue grass are being hit the hardest across Virginia. Who’s being harmed the most by armyworms?. ![]() Lawn in Lancaster destroyed by fall armyworm, which fed upon the fescue grass only and left behind other grass and plant species.

Other natural resources use a similar system - Cows are more likely to inhabit the Temperate Grassland while Camels are more likely to reside in the Arid Desert. This is why the game features twelve biomes, all of which present unique challenges and opportunities to the player's budding nation.Įach biome has a baseline amount of resources such as food, wood, and stone, however, specific biomes can provide more or less additional resources when an appropriate improvement is built.īiomes also affect which Dangerous Wildlife may appear - while a Temperate Forest may contain cougars, a Savannah may instead be teeming with lions, which are harder to clear. The living world in Ara: History Untold is meant to reflect the real world's natural biodiversity. Of course, the gameplay possibilities for how this impacts your decisions as the leader of your nation are too numerous to list here, but we’ll be exploring some of them in our upcoming posts. One of the key features we’ve added to support this approach is the timeline, which lets you look ahead to the predicted outcomes of your choices and adjust your plans turn by turn.Īra isn’t the only game that’s ever taken this approach – but it’s the only one at the scale of true 4X Historical Grand Strategy. Where there’s a conflict, (for example, two armies from nations at war attempting to move into the same region) – the faster army (measured by their initiative rating) makes their move first, with the slower army then moving in second.Ī screenshot of Ara: History Untold showing an Army unit planning to move from one region to another.
