Reply: Endless Winter: Paleoamericans:: Rules:: Re: Symbols not in Rules?

Thank you Rene, and everyone else who contributed in explaining the symbols. We didn't have any issues with the symbols themselves, or thought they should've used a car, however, it would have been nice to have those symbols in the rulebook. We were also aware that the eclipse symbol used in the rulebook for the rest action was incorrect, so we were aware that the rest action was not an eclipse phase action. We were just trying to understand why the symbol in the rulebook, for the explanation of the rest action, didn't match the symbol, for the rest action, on the player boards. Fortunately, shortly after posting our questions, we noticed that some of the other images in the rulebook, showing the player boards, did have the Cloud & Moon symbol where the rest action is, but it doesn't have it in the one place that really matters, which is the section explaining the rest action. Anyway, we apprec

I do not own the previous volumes and I have no experience with the system but this volume and the battles depicted really interest me.It is just that games that use photographic images make me remember games from when I grew up (the 80’s) and I have seen many beautifully illustrated games since then (without AI-art 😉) so I was hoping for this here

Intel CPU Shortage to Worsen in 2H2019
13 March 2019 @ 12:30 am
According to a recent report by Digitimes, Intel’s CPU supply shortage will continue to worsen through the 2H2019 as demand for entry level and mainstream notebooks such as Chromebooks and Core i3-based notebooks continue to increase without the proper increase in supply to sustain the growth. Supply shortages in 3Q2018 began impacting major notebook vendors […]

In a stunning move from Nvidia earlier this week, the GPU company announced that they would finally begin supporting adaptive sync functionality on AMD FreeSync monitors. Previously, Nvidia graphics cards were only compatible with their proprietary G-Sync system, which is technically a slightly better implementation of adaptive sync monitor technology when compared to FreeSync however, […]

Oppo Pad 5 Matte Display (aka Air5) benchmark scores
7 June 2026 @ 5:07 am
The Oppo Pad 5 Matte Display has a 12.1” IPS LCD that is optimized for reading and note-taking. It has 2,800 x 1,980px resolution, runs at 120Hz refresh rate and renders 12-bit colors. As the name suggests, this has a matte display instead of a glossy one. The panel is TÜV Rheinland certified for a 97% cut to reflections and a 70% reduction in harmful blue light.
You can check out our unboxing post to learn more about the slate and its key selling points. Here we will focus on performance – how good is that Dimensity 7300 Ultra? Note that we are testing the middle version with 8GB of RAM...Weekly poll results: the Xiaomi 17T and 17T Pro are too expensive, but a price cut can fix that
7 June 2026 @ 2:01 am
Predictably, the €100 price hike on the Xiaomi 17T series upset many voters in last week’s poll. However, Xiaomi did make some good choices too.
The Xiaomi 17T is smaller than its predecessor and its Pro sibling – it has a 6.59” display versus 6.83” on the 15T and 17T Pro. Barely anyone complained about the smaller size, so, well done Xiaomi. The big battery (6,500mAh) inside the phone certainly helps.
The capable 50MP 5x/115mm periscope also proved to be a popular change among voters. And while the Dimensity 8500 Ultra can’t fight flagship-grade silicon, it is just the right chipset to...Samsung Galaxy Watch9 and Watch Ultra 2's charging speeds revealed as they get 3C certified
6 June 2026 @ 11:02 pm
Samsung is expected to unveil its next-gen Galaxy Watches alongside its new folding smartphones, rumored to go official on July 22 at an event in London. Samsung hasn't confirmed how many smartwatches it will unveil, but the charging speeds of two of them have been revealed as they got 3C certified.
The two Samsung smartwatches, bearing model code SM-L3550 and SM-L7150, have appeared in the 3C database with support for 10W charging. The SM-L3550 is believed to be the Galaxy Watch9, while the SM-L7150 is likely the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2.
The Galaxy Watch8 and Galaxy Watch Ultra had...Fastest mobile chipsets ranked: compare smartphone processor performance
6 June 2026 @ 8:33 pm
The gap between smartphone chips in 2026 is absurd. The fastest chip we’ve tested is roughly 15 times more powerful than the slowest one still found in modern smartphones. And yet both can run essentially the same apps, games and operating systems. Mobile silicon has become wildly diverse.
Of course, raw performance isn’t everything. Software optimization, thermal management, storage speed and app behavior all play a huge role in how fast a phone actually feels day to day. But when it comes to demanding workloads, there’s still no substitute for brute computational power.

6 June 2026 @ 6:05 pm
Renders of the Samsung Galaxy A27, which leaked last week, showed the smartphone in three colors and corroborated previous design leaks. Now, we are looking at the Galaxy A27 in a new color, which might be called Awesome Mint, as its images were included in a retail listing. You can check them below.
The Galaxy A27 is expected to go official in H2 2026, but Samsung hasn't announced the launch date yet. Samsung hasn't divulged any specs or features of the Galaxy A27 either. However, a recent leak claimed the Galaxy A27 would come with the Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 SoC, up to 8GB of RAM, up to...Xiaomi Pad 8 gets a price hike in India
6 June 2026 @ 3:05 pm
The Xiaomi Pad 8, launched in India in March, has received a price hike in the country.
The 8GB/128GB and 12GB/256GB models of the standard Pad 8, launched in India at INR33,999 and INR36,999, respectively, are now priced at INR35,999 and INR38,999, respectively.
The Nano Texture Display version, having 12GB RAM and 256GB storage onboard, is now priced at INR40,999, up from INR38,999. The standard and Nano Texture models bundled with the Xiaomi Focus Pen Pro, and having the same 12GB/256GB configuration, cost INR43,999 and INR45,999, respectively.
The Xiaomi Pad 8 is powered by...Samsung Galaxy S27 Pro's battery capacity will surprise you
6 June 2026 @ 12:04 pm
Samsung is rumored to be launching the Galaxy S27 Pro alongside the Galaxy S27, Galaxy S27+, and Galaxy S27 Ultra in January. The Pro will apparently be a smaller Ultra, without an S Pen. It's allegedly going to have a 6.47-inch screen, and the same main camera and ultrawide as the Ultra (but a different telephoto).
If you've been wondering what to expect from the Pro in terms of battery capacity, you probably assumed it would be lesser in this area than the Ultra considering its slightly smaller size. But the removal of the S Pen can work wonders, as it turns out. According to a new rumor...Weekly deals: Xiaomi 17 Ultra is €300 off, Pixel 10 phones and Moto Razr Fold get extra discounts
6 June 2026 @ 10:02 am
This week Amazon Germany is offering additional discounts at checkout for several high-profile phones. But first, let’s have a quick look at the Xiaomi 17T series that launched last week.
Not much has changed, but if you have a Prime Student subscription, you can get 5% off. It doesn’t sound like much, but it works out to €50 off the Xiaomi 17T Pro, which is barely a week old. By the way, the tablet bundle deals from last week are still active. In the meantime, we have published a Xiaomi 17T vs. 17T Pro article to help you compare the two.
...Honor MagicPad4 battery life and charging tests: here are the results
6 June 2026 @ 8:02 am
The Honor MagicPad 2 12.3 from a couple of years ago received a good-but-not-great Active Use Score of 9:42h. It was dragged down by its so-so web browsing score of 7:56h. Today, we’re testing a newer generation 12.3” tablet from Honor – let’s see if it did any better.
The Honor MagicPad4 has a 12.3” OLED panel with 3,000 x 1,920px resolution and a 10,100mAh battery. It’s the same size screen as the MagicPad 2, but with a higher top refresh rate (165Hz vs. 144Hz) and a higher peak brightness (2,400 nits vs. 1,600 nits). The battery capacity is essentially the same (the older slate is down...Tecno Pova 8 5G finally has an official launch date, brand reveals its battery capacity
6 June 2026 @ 6:01 am
The long-awaited Tecno Pova 8 5G finally has a launch date. Today, the brand has announced that the device will be landing in India on June 11 at 12 PM local time.
Tecno has also revealed the phone's design through the short teaser video you can see below. This reveals the fact that the handset has a small dot matrix display on the back, that's integrated into the camera island. The inspiration from Nothing is pretty clear here - dot matrix display aside, there's also the faux transparent look.
