![]() That’s all well and good if there’s a free Black Orc nearby with the movement to get into position. Imagine: You have a chance of scoring but need an Orc to blow a hole in the opposing line. The bulk of the players you do have are slow and dangerously immobile. There are only three positionals you can take, which means you don’t have a lot of options for confronting the myriad challenges that Blood Bowl always presents (and which makes the game so compelling). One of the reasons for them being so challenging is the very make-up of the team. ![]() General Observationsīlack Orcs are a tricky team to play, and that’s coming from a guy with many games of Blood Bowl under his belt. McKinley, had learned after a year of playing one of the newest teams in Blood Bowl might be a good way to wrap up the series. So, given that Gorn N’hleg’s chronicle had the story of a thick-headed coach at its heart, I figured a follow-up article exploring what I, Ian H. If you’ve come to love the story of the Mytilan Militantes, then you’ll know I’m a story-teller as much as a Blood Bowl coach. You might recognize my name as the author of the Up and Under web series that appears in this website. Yes, there would be advice and tactics for fellow Blood Bowl enthusiasts, but it was as much (or more) a story about the most obtuse head coach imaginable and his gang of misfits. ![]() When I offered up to Taureau Amiral the idea of a chronicle written by the head coach of my new Black Orc team, my intention was to run the Bytown Maulers for a year and document what happened. I’m the coach behind the infamous, thick-headed Gorn N’hleg.

The present-day logo got its start from this logo that debuted in 1974. The white “BOSTON CELTICS” wordmark is in an arch around the leprechaun. This green-and-white silhouette sits on a red background that’s shaped like a basketball. He’s decked from head-to-toe in green attire, including a bowler hat, pants, bow tie, and a green-and-white vest. This one is spinning a ball on his right pointer finger and leaning on a cane with his left hand. The jumping leprechaun was replaced by a standing one. 1968-1974: Leprechaun in a Basketball Logo The background shape mimicked that of the leprechaun, and he didn’t change at all from the old Boston Celtics logo. This burst of color created a better contrast against the white leprechaun. The team kept the old Celtics logo but made a slight change by adding an orange background. He was seen jumping with his knees bent, and on his feet were buckled shoes. This happy leprechaun, which resembled more of a jester, wore a crown with “NBA” on it, had a pipe in his mouth, and held an oak cane in his left hand. This splash of green color maintained the signature color palette of the team. The logo was mainly white, but Lucky wore a green vest with white shamrocks. ![]() Red Auerbach’s brother Zang created the leprechaun, which was nicknamed Lucky. In 1951, the leprechaun logo made its first appearance. Both the shamrock and words were wrapped in a green circle, which has a red border. This word stretched out in an arch above the Boston Celtics clover. The Boston Celtics’ first logo featured a white shamrock with the wordmark “CELTICS” in a sans-serif font. Unlike other teams, a Boston Celtics logo in black and white never existed because all the team’s logos include a green color scheme. The team settled on a shamrock, which brings forth luck, and it’s found on all logos, whether it’s the main focal point or a decorative feature. To celebrate the team’s Irish and Celtic name, the Boston Celtics wanted a logo that embraced both that aspects. Some of the team’s most notable athletes to don Celtic green include Larry Bird, John Havlicek, Kevin McHale, Paul Pierce, and Bill Russell. The Celtics also have a record of 40 players inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame. Today, the Celtics are one of the NBA’s winningest franchises with 32 division titles, nine conference titles, and 17 championship titles. The team found a resurgence during the 1980s, highlighted by competing against the Los Angeles Lakers. The Celtics won their first championship in 1957, followed by eight more from 1959 to 1966. In just a few years, he helped the team become a dynasty. During the first few years, the Celtics struggled until the hiring of Red Auerbach as the head coach. Since Boston was full of Irishmen, he thought this new team should wear green and be called the Boston Celtics.īy the fall of 1949, the Basketball Association of America became part of the National Basketball Association, and the Celtics officially became a part of the NBA. He stated that the Celtics name referred to the great basketball tradition of the Original Celtics of New York. He opted for Celtics even though he received some pushback from others who reminded him of the failed venture by the Boston Shamrocks football team. Several nicknames for the teams surfaced, including Unicorns, Olympians, and Whirlwinds, but Brown wanted something different. At the time, he headed the Boston Garden Arena Corporation. The Basketball Association of America began operation in 1946, and the Boston Celtics officially began on June 6 when Walter A. However, while this team ended, another team was poised to take its place. The team tried to return on its own, but it had difficulty and ended up folding in the 1940s. This Celtics team ended up joining the American Basketball League until the league folded. The team dominated New York basketball, where they were credited with instilling zone defense, low-post play, and man-to-man defense. Once the war ended, Thomas and Jim Furey rebranded the team as the Original Celtics and took them into the professional circuit. ![]() This original Celtics team disbanded once the United States entered World War I. In 1911, New York City’s first recreational basketball league launched, and many of the teams based their names on their home neighborhoods. A group of English immigrants from Chelsea opted for Celtics. Not only are the Celtics a successful team on the court, but off the court, the team is just as recognizable thanks in part to its leprechaun logo that’s been in use for more than 50 years. The Celtics are one of the most successful teams in the league, having won 17 NBA championships. Its history dates back to 1946 as the team is one of the league’s original eight teams. The Boston Celtics are a member of the Eastern Conference Atlantic Division within the National Basketball Association. ![]() The band has had a number of hit songs including ‘Brass in Pocket’, ‘My Baby’, ‘I’ll Stand By You’ and many more. After both Honeyman-Scott and Farndon passed away due to drug related incidents the band was subject to a number of line-up changes and Hynde has remained the only consistent member of the band. The band line-up originally consisted of songwriter, lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Chrissie Hynde, lead guitarist, backing vocalist and keyboardist James Honeyman-Scott, bass guiatarist Pete Farndon and drummer and percussionist Martin Chambers. The Pretenders are famous for being an English-American band first formed in 1978, they have a rock sound.

That’s what people really want to hear and they would be fantastic shows.” If you go “I hope before we pack away our bags for good we can tour those albums in their entirety. “We’re very fit and in great shape but time’s not on our side,” Chambers says. He adds that he wants the Pretenders to honor their past by performing the band’s first two albums from start to finish onstage. “That’s where Jimmy and Pete used to be and that never changes, it never leaves you.” “I’m at the back of the stage and to the left is the guitar player and to the right is the bass player,” Chambers says. He says he thinks about them every time he plays a show. While he enjoys playing the Pretenders’ new material live and hopes to perform on their next album, Chambers says the band has never been the same for him since Honeyman-Scott’s and Farndon’s deaths. The band has since released albums about once every four years with a variety of lineups. They followed with the album “Learning to Crawl” (1984), which hit No. Hynde and Chambers carried on with a new Pretenders lineup and released the hit single “Back on the Chain Gang” (1983). The Pretenders upward trajectory came to a crashing halt when Honeyman-Scott died of drug abuse in June 1982, two days after the band fired Farndon for his substance abuse problems. The records included many of the band’s best-known songs, including “Brass in Pocket,” “Talk of the Town,” “Kid,” “Message of Love” and a cover of the Kinks’ “Stop Your Sobbing.” Both albums were Top 10 hits in America and the U.K., where the band’s debut hit No. The lineup was responsible for the band’s first two albums, “Pretenders” (1980) and “Pretenders II” (1981). ![]() The original Pretenders roster also included the guitarist James Honeyman-Scott and the bassist Pete Farndon. We put together a great band and it worked immediately.” “She knows how to sing, which is different form just having a good voice, and writes an incredible lyric. “She hadn’t performed much at the time the band formed, but the key is the songs and her range of material was fantastic,” he says. Hynde, an Ohio native, moved to England to pursue a music career in 1973.Ĭhambers says it was evident from the start that Hynde was a special talent. He was with the band from their formation in London in 1978 until the mid-1980s, and rejoined in 1994. “We’re still able to do it with a big smile on our faces because we’re still alive and producing good music and performing great shows.”Ĭhambers began playing professionally in 1967 and is in his second stint with the Pretenders. “We’re all about the music and the best results,” Chambers says. “That’s the cooperative that Chrissie and I work within. “I know my job is to play the supporting role for Chrissie, providing the platform on the drums so that she can sing that melody,” he says. “I remember watching the movie ‘Rocky,’ and hearing that music made me want to drink raw eggs and run up a flight of stairs.” “What I loved about music was that you could move people,” he said. ![]() Though he does not appear on the band’s latest effort, “Alone” (2016), Chambers is the group’s official drummer and plays with them live, as he will when the band performs at the Mayo Performing Arts Center in Morristown on Monday.Īt the same time, he also wrote songs, influenced in part by such artists as Hank Williams (a favorite of his father), Merle Haggard, the Beatles, and Bruce Springsteen. I’m sure I’ve taken a toll on her as well.” But because I love her so much and the Pretenders so much, that’s OK. “I’ve taken it on the chin from her so often. “She’s very strong-minded and we clash,” Chambers, the Pretenders’ outspoken drummer, says of his 40-year relationship with Hynde, the band’s singer-guitarist. I couldn’t be bothered with all the aggro Chrissie gives me. “A couple of years ago, I told you don’t have to use me,” Chambers says. Martin Chambers did not perform on the Pretenders’ latest album, but he’s not upset about it. ![]() Forspoken, being the first PC game with this technology, was never going to have the perfect implementation. After all, DLSS was garbage when it released back in 2020 and it’s since grown to be the benchmark by which every upscaling method is measured by.īoth AMD and Nvidia have their own specialized versions of DLSS that will likely have less of a performance impact, but those have to be worked into games on an individual basis. While it is a bit disappointing that DirectStorage isn’t making as much of a splash as it perhaps should have given the amount of time we’ve had to wait for it, it’s far from the end of the road for the API. At the end of the day, that’s not a huge deal, because for all intents and purposes most people are going to want to load their most recent save anyways, but it’s not like there are PC games that don’t already load within that time frame. įorspoken reportedly does load extremely quickly even when loading an older save file, but it loads in a couple seconds rather than instantly. However, there are reports on Reddit that the game is cheating by loading the most recent save file in the background while you’re sitting in the main menu, as pointed out by Reddit user Skipan. īut from what it seems, the game will load extremely quickly for that 10% drop in GPU performance, which is likely a drop in the bucket with a graphics card like the RTX 4080 anyways. I’m working on finding a code on PC so that I can test it myself, but it looks like you can expect about a 10% drop in GPU performance, according to PC World. I haven’t had a chance to test it, either, as I did not get a code. It doesn’t seem like many reviewers were able to get their hands on the game early, so performance information from well-known publications is a little thin on the ground. Either way, there are some major issues that have appeared around this game. It makes sense, then, that it’s first field test is in Forspoken, which is, of course, an open world game – albeit not a great one if the reviews are anything to go by.īut, it’s not often that groundbreaking PC game technology makes an appearance in the most critically acclaimed games. Basically, it brings Xbox Series X -like storage speeds to the best gaming PCs. The way DirectStorage works is that it gives your SSD a direct link to your graphics card, allowing for near-instant load times and larger open worlds. This tech will let your SSD perform like the best PS5 SSDs The biggest of these concerns is performance issues with the best GPUs. However, while it’s good the tech is finally getting a test drive outside of a specialized benchmark, it looks like there are a few issues that might need to be ironed out before it sees its full potential. ![]() While the tech has technically been available for a while, it’s only appeared in an actual game this week, with Square Enix’s Forspoken. DirectStorage has long been Microsoft’s promised storage API to drive the next generation of the best PC games when it comes to, well, storage.
