Why? It's not actually saying anything, or making any noises, much as we might forget in this text based medium. It's showing a readout with invalid data entries. It'd be like naming a robot NaN or something.
Well it's shorter then saying "the dwarfern earth elemental thing that may or may not have been created in collaberation with the Asur and/or Nehekarans" for a start.
Why do you think it will take "several turns"? While we put a lot of effort into gathering materials, acquiring the actual translation took a grand total of 2 Qrech actions + 2 Max actions to get everything but the magical lexicon. And if Qrech is teaching us willingly, we won't need to gather materials.
(I meant in-universe; it doesn't make sense for the dwarves to give it that name or anything.)
We, uh, technically don't know that at all - the AV + living being experiments are on the "post battle part of turn" to-do list. AV rapidly decomposing into all 8 winds when poked with one wind isn't really the same as exploding.
That's not really how the translation works though. Bokskrund is better translated as something along the lines of "Silver Lining" as in the "every cloud has it's silver lining" expression, which is both a pun on it going "Bok" all the time as well as a particularly meaningful name given the whole critfail cascade (on the part of our enemies) that led to K8P recovering the Runic Elemental.
It just reformed itself the last four times he smashed it, why would that change now?Kragg? Destroy a irriplaceable example of Golden Age runecraft? Not happening.
Building a Queekish written lexicon was parallelizable; a combination of Qrech's work and Max's work got us the four lexicon pieces we have currently (basics, military, technology, and medical), because once Max had worked out the meaning of some stuff, he can slide his papers across the table to us. Learning a spoken language is not parallelizable; we need to learn the whole thing ourself. So I expect it to take 2-4 AP of effort to become fluent in spoken Queekish, not counting whatever rapport we need to build with him to convince him to do it (and the opportunity cost of using Deceiver for any gambits).
Maybe, but knowing which is the soft time limit on a project that we said that is will take us a long time, would be useful, if only because it would help us to know what about other ones like the Snek juice
Sorcerer: "Let's turn-face our attention to Clan Mors. Only a crazy-madwoman would be so obvious and then try to kill-murder someone such as myself!"
It makes him feel rotund.
I mean, that's basically how academia works, isn't it? Except with your CV standing in for plumage displays.
I'm in agreement with this, with the addendum of absolutely needing the linguists if they provide something other than a + to the writing roll. I just don't want to stop there - get what we have out there now, then keep using Qrech before we lose him so we can publish all of Queekish later.
Sounds like a job for multiple projects per advisor (as seen in most CK2 quests), with the caveats that Dwarven Loremasters probably don't do that and BoneyM might not want to manage it.
Would have been cooler if they did.
It'd be another (dumb) reason to think Yakkety Sax at least.Would have been cooler if they did.
It explodes when exposed to Dhar or warpstone, including a night under a Chaos moon.
That's basically how Supreme Patriarch/Matriarch are chosen.Would have been cooler if they did.
I wonder if Ice Dragons have resistance to heat, for obvious reasons...?
Apparently the Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors trope doesn´t apply in Warhammer´s Dragons...
