40k is so open to cheating. It has soooo many moving parts that I've seen new people go out to play there 1st game and just get hammered because they didn't really know what was right or wrong.
I know people weight dice for a certain outcome of the highest number but...why wouldn't they weight the dice in a way that it only makes half of the better numbers more likely to appear rather than one singular number? The guy who rolls constant sixes would be much more easily found out than the guy who's rolling a 6, 5 ,4 and even 3s for better undetectability without any 2s or 1s.
See also: Radithor, the Radium Revigorator, and the Radium Girls for stories of early 20th century radiation quackery and gross negligence. Uranium definitely emits alpha radiation, which will definitely kill if it’s inside your body. Normally, it’s blocked by the skin and relatively harmless. But having it inside your body is another matter.
If anyone is curious, as I was when I saw this: "If you ate a gram of uranium, the most likely result is that you would get heavy metal poisoning. You would have a fair chance of dying. It's not quite accurate to say that a gram of uranium is 20 billion calories. This figure only applies to the complete fission of a gram of uranium-235. Most uranium is uranium-238, which cannot sustain a fission reaction. One gram of U-235 is also well below its critical mass of 56 kilograms, so no nuclear chain reaction will occur. There is also no process in the human body that can start a nuclear reaction. Furthermore, the energy of nuclear fission is not in a form the body can use. Uranium is both radioactive and a heavy metal poison with an oral LD50 estimated at 1-5 grams depending on the form it is taken in. Simple uranium metal would react (chemically) with your stomach acid and you'd find yourself belching hydrogen. If enough the uranium dissolves and enters your system, it has a good chance killing you. If you survive, you'll likely be at an increased risk of stomach and intestinal cancer."

That's definitely not canon to anything. Someone made that up outside of official sources. In fact, the Pokédex mentions droppings of Pokémon, and in the original and English dub of the anime, Gary finds a piece of Pokémon coprolite at a dig site. And that's the scientific name for fossilized poop. Yeah, I just looked it up myself, it's literally from a subreddit with "Conspiracy" in its name. It's not true to the games nor anime. I thought so. I feel like it would be more common knowledge if that was official.
This is how I felt about the first one; like it was Breathtaking but I didn’t feel much emotions, it didn’t really make me think about anything either. But Dune2 gave me all of that - I was actually into the story this time and it felt really rounded. Kept thinking it was about to end, and wishing it would continue - and then it did!
To clarify, the Pokédex entry for Darumaka in Pokémon White, Pokémon X, and Pokémon Omega Ruby states the following: “Darumaka’s droppings are hot, so people used to put them in their clothes to keep themselves warm.” So yes, we have confirmation that at least one Pokémon defecates.
1:52 "we are *not* down a hot subject like..." I'm very tempted to go to the VOD to confirm my suspicion that they, in fact, went deep into that subject, because they're Bom and Ten.
