AFAIK it's not that easy to access data on the machine while it's running unless they can bypass the lock screen. People pick stupid passwords for their user accounts so it's totally possible to get in in those cases, but otherwise dont you need really sophisticated side channel attacks to get data out of memory on locked system? It's not like there is some port on the MOBO you can just plug into to get access to RAM

First time painting...any recommendations for easier paint schemes? in c/[email protected]

Thanks so much for the detailed reply! If my first attempts are abysmal, is it possible to strip the paint off and start over without damaging the mini? These are all plastic from AGoAC and the clan invasion kickstarter--I don't have any of the old metal IWM ones.

Tips on playing against the Starhawk as Imperials (algebro.xyz)
 

Hey all,

I've been having some trouble playing against the Starhawk with my Imperial lists and I was wondering if anyone had some tips on how to deal with it. I tend to run lists with the cymoon or kuat as my heavy hitter but it feels like I just don't have enough fire power to bring it down unless I go all in on it and ignore the other rebel ships zipping around.

Is that what I should do? Or should I just ignore it and focus on destroying smaller ships?

Thanks!

First time painting...any recommendations for easier paint schemes? (algebro.xyz)
 

So I've decided after playing for a year or two that I'm finally going to try painting my minis. I've held off because frankly I have terrible artistic and fine motor skills and I don't want to ruin my mechs.

Ive bought everything I think I need (set of Vallejo paints, primer, brushes, dry brushes, wet pallet, matte varnish, hobby knife, cutting mat, citadel painting handle...probably more) and I'm about ready to dive in.

I was thinking about trying desert camo but I'm wondering if y'all have any suggestions on what might be an easy beginner scheme for me to get my feet wet, or any other tips on painting in general for the artistically challenged like myself :)

Thanks!
