Try right clicking the crossbow on the action bar. That's how I have been able to set default actions.

The customer service team is currently mostly new hires being brought up to speed. The Team is Sam, Logan, Keith, Rian, Raychael, Heather, and myself.
Sounds like they're really just starting development so it is likely a good ways away. But at least for me, super exciting news!
Howdy everyone! I play a mobile game called Transformers Earth Wars (I have found that plopping down on my bed and playing some mindless mobile game on my tablet helps me unwind from work). It's just a base building game, but collecting Transformers was a surefire way to get me on board. So I wondered, who else here might play it?
Yes. I often add green chile to the tomato paste. The chile taste is different but I don't think sofrito would be bad.
I discovered this thread late but if you are still accepting suggestions... My go to for quick and simple has always been Spanish Rice. Dice up some celery and onions. Boil them along with some oil with rice. Once the rice is done add some tomato paste. I like to add some vegetable bouillon cubes as well while boiling the rice. Takes just a few minutes and is tasty. Sometimes I get some shredded chicken from the grocery store (Safeway shreds some of their rotisserie chickens and sells it in little plastic containers) and mix that in.
Then you'll probably enjoy it! I liked both the other sequel movies quite a bit, and I really enjoyed this one as well!
Tradition changed after “The Purge”? Different groups have different traditions? There are plenty of reasons this could be the case. Even in Clone Wars we see different groups behaving different ways, from Death Watch to the pacifist home word to the groups that are more like what we see in Rebels. For Rise of Skywalker, maybe these particular characters just haven’t encountered Stormtroopers doing it until now.
I like the bullfighter look of Jirelle and will be bummed if she is out. Excited to see who the new iconic is though!
It is available! I picked it up at GenCon. It’s also available on the Catalyst site. I am not sure if it is up here yet, but I can ask Katina about it. I also got a book called No Future which is pretty close to completely world lore. It’s wonderful!
I'm not currently in any games, but the ones I am excited to play or run as soon as I can get a group together are: Star Trek Adventures
Give them a box of crayola. The big ones. We’ll get plenty of we’ll documented pictures.Reading is probably one of those "most goblins are superstitious about writing, but some are not."My concern is that it's usually assumed that Pathfinder Society members write reports of their adventures. Does that rule out illiterate goblins in PFS? I have a PFS character who cannot read or write. He is learning and is getting better (I have had several folks at tables who have helped him and given him some lessons). His journal was mostly pictures early on, and kind of still is, but he is starting to be able to give more text reports.
How It Should Have Ended
If it is following the Batwoman comic, in the Elegy story the main antagonist is a character named Alice who is not connected to the Hatter, and looks a lot like this Alice. I am a little reluctant to post spoilers but I will in the spoiler tags. Spoiler:
That Alice is Kate's long thought dead sister, Beth. I strongly suspect this is who Alice is.
Yeah, I did really feel like despite the big three headliners that Ant Man and Black Widow were the real lead protagonists of the movie. And I think Natasha got a really short stick all around. As someone up thread mentioned, she has brought up redeeming herself a lot and this was an almost too good chance to explore that.
I made a post elsewhere that I will paste here also. I mostly enjoyed the movie, and it had a lot of "YES!" moments for me. I tend to like the solo films more than the group ones and this didn't change my mind. There were some things that bummed me out a little. A couple minor ones, and a couple more significant ones. 1. I wanted a lot more Captain Marvel. I didn't realize this when I went into the theater but I guess her scenes in this movie were filmed before the Captain Marvel movie and that is why she isn't in this too much. 2. It seems like maybe I interpreted this differently than other folks did, but I was really uncomfortable with the "guy is struggling to deal with PTSD and survivors guilt and as a result has gained weight. It's hilarious!" thing in Thor's arc. Maybe I interpreted it differently than intended. 3. Natasha doesn't get a funeral with everyone or anything like that? Not even a wreath floating out with Tony's? Come on, she's a tremendously important character in these movies and without her sacrifice none of this happens. 4. I liked that there were a lot of cameos from supporting characters in other movies and even Jarvis from Agent Carter. But ones I would have really liked to have seen didn't make the cut. It would have been neat to have the cast from Agents of Shield come through a portal and participate in the big fight, and given what heavy hitters Yo-Yo and Quake are would have made a lot of sense. But the biggest omission for me was Luis. When I heard the van horn I thought the camera was going to pan to the van speeding towards the battle, driven by Luis. But it was just a FOB activate horn =0(
Yeah, my whole theater cheered for the part DeathQuaker is talking about too. the guy sitting next to me leaned forward and whispered really intensely "YES". For my part I really liked it.
End credit thing that may be a thing: It’s the sound of a hammer on metal. I interpreted it as a call back to the first Iron Man movie.
Does Anya Corazon appear in it at all?
IDW is a comic publisher, like Marvel and DC. They're mostly known for big name licensed comics (Transformers, Ninja Turtles, Star Trek, Ghostbusters, GI Joe, etc). In more recent years they have branched out to board games as well. Ninja Division/Sodapop are a separate company. In this case IDW has partnered with Ninja Division for these 2 projects. It sounds like Ninja Division will create the sculpts but IDW will be producing their own miniatures. Basically they are hiring Ninja Division to make the 'pattern' for the minis. EDITED to add a Wikipedia link for IDW.
I hope it is the last X-men movie. The neat thing about movies is that if it is something you aren't interested in you can just not go watch it. Some folks may enjoy franchises you don't and that's ok. Instead of pissing on that maybe your time is better spent concentrating on franchises you do enjoy.
As a huge X-Men fan I am always hoping the movies will be great. I think this looks a lot more promising that Apocalypse did when I saw it's first trailer. So I am optimistic!
When you see listings like that it's worth remembering that because something is listed on a site for a certain amount does not mean that it is selling for that amount, or even that anyone is buying it. Many sites do not charge listing fees so sellers can list an item at whatever dollar amount they want and hope that someone bites. If the listing expires they are out nothing, and can just relist it. In my years of collecting action figures I have seen the same listings from the same sellers with very large price tags for years at a time. It costs them nothing to list it and maybe one day someone who either doesn't know better, has the money and doesn't mind the price, or is desperate for the item will buy it for that ridiculous price.
It is expected (though no announcement has been made)to debut during the Superbowl on Sunday, with the full length trailer on Monday. I am still really surprised the teaser trailer didn't show with The Last Jedi.
Since it was almost exactly 6 months out I was kind of expecting to see the first Solo trailer opening for The Last Jedi, and was surprised it didn't. Looking forward to seeing this!
** spoiler omitted ** Spoiler: I just want to mention that the qualifications say, "College degree or the equivalent in professional experience (2-4 years)". 23 years in retail would cover the 2-4 years of professional experience.
I was coming from 18 years of retail, and put in my resume on a whim thinking I would never hear back. The move was pretty expensive (but most of it can be claimed on taxes if it is a move for a job), and I do very much miss my family, and the friends I have back home. There are a lot of really neat folks here though, and the area is pretty great. I get homesick sometimes, but the folks I get to spend my time with here are worth it! Of course, I do want to point out for anyone interested that the cost of living here is very very high, so that is something to consider as well.
I'm pretty excited about this! Looking forward to what they can dream up for us! I wouldn't hold my breath for a live action version of any EU stuff though. I think we may see more of what Clone Wars and Rebels has done in nods to certain things, or revisions to old characters, but I think something like KotOR the TV Show! is unlikely.
Sale rankings are, and even those are semi-trustworthy because what's stopping Amazon (or Paizo) from listing something as a #1 bestseller when the publisher pays for that? The bookstore chain I worked at for many many years had what they called 'Make Books'. They were called that because the company was going to make them best sellers. A publisher would pay the company to get a new release onto the company's make book list. The company would then push and sell the holy crap out of the book. Employees were expected to know about the make books, talk them up, recommend them, and sometimes even had a daily quota to sell. If there was ever anything that high-lit how meaningless sales rankings or being a bestseller are it was that.
La Llorona, from the American Southwest and Mexico. Yes! That's my favorite part of the whole book!
I have been feeling a bit disconnected so I am rereading I am Aztlán.
I hope Rey isn't related to anyone from the saga so far in any way. It's ok to have heroes who aren't related to other heroes. In fact having them all be related makes the universe feel tiny. One of my biggest annoyances with the prequel trilogy is 3PO being built by Anakin. What's wrong with him having been built in a droid factory like all the other protocol droids?
I don't doubt there is a market for it. I'm one of the folks who would buy it in a heartbeat. I'm just saying there are always rumors about an unedited release, so don't get your hopes up too much. It will be interesting to see what Disney determines they want to release. Star Wars has had some degree of editing for every single release. Those of us who didn't see it in a theater in 1977, or watch the 1977 VHS release haven't seen the original theatrical cut (this may be what Lucas is referring to when he insists there isn't an original unedited version anymore). EDIT: Forgot to switch to my alias.
Not to be a buzzkill, but before everyone gets too excited, it's worth noting there were rumors that a blu ray release of unedited versions was coming when Disney bought LucasArts and again in the lead up to Force Awakens. It seems they crop up every time there is a Star Wars release, so take the rumors with a grain of salt.
Hello J.A., I can't speak to what Amazon will or won't do (alias because this is not an official Paizo answer). Having ordered tons of stuff from them over the years, the few times I have ordered something that took a really long time to ship out what happened was they eventually sent me an email saying they were still working on getting it. The email had a 'click on this to let us know you still want it' link. Clicking on that took me to an Amazon page letting me know they would leave the order active and continue trying. I had one order that took almost half a year to ship out and I got probably 3 of those emails in that time.
But what about Age of Rebellion and Force and Destiny? They all have "beginner box" and core rulebook. Which one is really the main core rulebook? I'm so confused. Each has a different focus for the game. You can think of the relationship with the Beginner Games and the Core Rulebooks (CRB) as similar to the Pathfinder Beginner Box and CRB, the CRB is the 'main' book but the Beginner Games ease you to into the game and help you graduate up into the full game. Edge of the Empire is a life under the Empire kind of game. This is the one you'll play if you're living in the Empire trying to get by. Classes like Smuggler, or Fringer. Think of a pre Star Wars Han Solo type movie. Age of Rebellion focuses more on the galactic civil war. This is the one you would play if you wanted to be an active member of the Rebellion. Classes like Soldier. Think Rogue One. Force and Destiny is the one you want if you want to be a Force user (the other 2 do not include Force users). It has classes like Jedi Guardian, and Force Adept. Outside of a single mechanic they all work together, and that mechanic is more of a story mechanic for your character than a gameplay mechanic, so even that will work across the games.
Because those Jedi would face Vader and the Emperor and die. Just like all the other Jedi. Luke has a chance to do what he does end up doing, making Vader think about what he is doing and reconsider. He can turn Vader back. EDIT: What Belabrus said.
If you want to see terrible shooting watch Han try to fend off the stormtroopers in the hangar in Star Wars. He shoots THE CEILING several times. He's nowhere even close to hitting troopers.
I wonder if it will have any ties to Agents of SHIELD. Lots of crossover/lead-in potential.
I am also playing on Prince. The silliest one I have encountered was Egypt sending several battering rams (despite being in the modern era) but instead of attacking my city they parked them 2 tiles away and then sent Pikemen at me which I killed with my wall defenders. Never used the battering rams. Also the first time someone declared war on me because they didn't like that I had built some wonders, everyone else in the world denounced me as a warmonger even though I had not been in conflict with anyone until that point, and they declared war on me.
No, he's at the battle of Hoth in Empire Strikes Back. The old EU had him surviving and eventually retiring, but in the movies he survives at least through Hoth. Hmm, it could be he died at Hoth. I was under the impression the canon was he ejected from the speeder before it crashed into a walker (though I don't recall why I thought that so it could be something from the EU and not the canon).
Ghost Rider has been appearing on Agents of Shield this season. Robbie Reyes played by Gabriel Luna.

I blame Cosmo for the fact I'm STILL waiting for Metallica's next album. :p
I generally hold doors open for everyone regardless of things like gender. Never had a problem. I suppose if I did have an issue, I'd mention that I do it for everyone. Yeah, I hold it for everyone. If someone has an issue I just go about my business. I did have one time when I was going to my apartments front office to pick up a package and the woman who worked there walked up a couple of steps behind me. I held the door for her and when she got my package she went pretty out of her way to roll her hand out in such a way that her wedding ring was very obvious. I think that is the only time anyone has ever interpreted it as me not just being polite though. The terms girl and woman are pretty interchangeable for me for females in my age bracket, below it and about up to my mother's age bracket. I'd refer to Venerable females, around my grandmother's age bracket, as women, but I imagine many of them, not all, would refer to themselves as girls. This reminded me of a neat experience I had a few years ago. I often talk to the radio when no one else is around (I know, that's kind of weird...), so if a commercial says, "Did you know..." I will sometimes say out loud things like, "No, I didn't know that!" One morning I was stocking things at the store I worked out. The store had just unlocked the doors but I was still in it's early and we haven't opened yet mode. I don't remember what the radio said, something about girls, and I replied, "I'm not a girl anymore, I'm a woman now." There was an elderly woman on the other side of the table in the center of the isle that I hadn't seen because she was shorter that the items on the table. She peaked around the table and told me, "Honey, you stay a girl as long as you want to." That memory always makes me smile.
The paperback version of The Force Awakens novelization released yesterday. The timeline in the front of the book has Tarkin taking place before A New Dawn and Rebels.
My parents house is in Espanola (La Mesilla) and that's where I grew up, but I went to school, had my first job, etc in Pojoaque so I usually tell people I am from Pojoaque. I went to UNM and stayed in Albuquerque until I came out here. This is mostly off topic though, so it may be better to continue this somewhere else, possibly here.
The litmus test then is this: Red or green?We don't currently have a significant Spanish culture analog in the world. There's some elements of it in Varisians, but not so much that it's obvious. That one's more subtle, and has a fair mix of eastern european in it as well (that element ended up being more obvious in the final product, but there's a fair amount of Spanish inspiration inside Varisans as well if you know where to look).There is enough of it that my group, made up of northern New Mexican hispanics, immediately adopted the Varisians as the group of people that were like us. We have grown their culture to match ours more closely without having to remove anything that was already there. They are the group that nearly all of us default to in building characters now because we feel like we are playing our own people. So while the eastern European influences are there and we have made some additions, I wouldn't say that the Spanish is hard to find or that you have to look very hard to find it. "Or"? Christmas please. I got a dry ice packed box of green from my mom in the mail today (living in WA now so my access to it is very limited now)!
It's not unreasonable that cultures can meet and interact without violence. Intermingling and the exchange and embracing of ideas and cultural norms between the groups over generations can lead to a later culture made up of elements of both of those cultures further down the road. While the culture we have where I am from does have a very awful history that doesn't mean that a similar one in a fictional world has to get there the same way.
