Hero's 2nd wall

Give the order to deploy the glaive.

So as PL's wall is winding down I've made a new wall attempting something new.

It is a 6x6 grid with the main groups being 6 groups of 6. 15 posts for correct grouping and 10 for reasoning making each main group worth 25 points each.

Being a 36 grid there could also be 9 groups of 4. I have not seen if there are that many, I am going to cap extra groups of 4 at 9 groups being worth 10 points each as 5 for group 5 for reasoning.

Good Luck!!!

Main Groups:

1 / 1 / 2 / 3 / 5 / 8 - the first 6 Fibonacci numbers (25 Posts to CJ)
Plain / Beef / Chicken / Chili / Shrimp / Cheese - Ramen (25 Posts to CJ)
6 / 66 / 666 / 616 / 13 / 42 - Hero's Favorite numbers (15 posts to CJ)
Water / Lemon / Orange / Yeast / Barley / Wheat - Ingredients in Beer (25 posts to CJ)
40:1 / Screaming Eagles / Nuclear Attack / Ghost Division / Uprising / Carolus Rex - Sabaton Songs (25 to CJ)
Death / Suppress / Slow / Snare / Poison / Stun - Ailments in LoL (25 to CJ)

Created groups: (5/9 left)
666/Suppress/Death/Poison: of or relating to the devil and a painful death (TCDP)
2, 3, 5, 13 - All prime numbers (PL)
wheat/yeast/barley/water: ingredients for bread (TCDP)
Rex/Uprising/Suppress/Death - See his sentence below (PL)

Score:

CJ: 130
TCDP: 20
PL: 20

1 / 1 / 2 / 3 / 5 / 8 - the first 6 Fibonacci numbers? (BTW, mathematicians sometimes add 0 at the beginning of this sequence, but this is something I don't see very often.)
Plain / Chicken / Beef / Cheese / Lemon / Shrimp - crisp/potato chip flavours? (Not that I've ever come across lemon-flavoured crisps....)

Correct CJ on the Fibonacci numbers. You are close on set, but wrong reasoning.

Adam, I gave you your "of or relating to the devil and a painful death" but not the bread because I've never seen an ingredient "Plain". Though there are things up there I'd accept as a 4 grouping for bread.

I figured there was some combo of that last night, but in my sleep deprived state I couldn't figure it out.

Both are wrong, CJ you are very close, correct reasoning, but one of your group is wrong. Adam you are also close, but need a reasoning.

I'm guessing Rex isn't in the group, so....

Nuclear / Ghost / Uprising / Eagles / Death / 40

All occur in the titles of Sabaton songs (Nuclear Attack / Ghost Division / Uprising / Screaming Eagles / White Death / 40-1)

Still good reasoning, but there is still one in that group that is incorrect.

Correctly incorrect. That is not a group.

I'm really stuck with this wall at the moment...It's no use!!

This one's a complete and utter guess (and probably very stupid), but...

REX (the king) must avoid an UPRISING, which he SUPPRESSES, and punishes the uprisers by DEATH.

Really!?

Lemon/Orange/Water/Shrimp - Associated with cocktails.

I don't think I'm anywhere close to guessing any of the groups of six.

Yup.

The cocktail one idk if I'll accept it or not... I'm a bit tired right now and not sure if I agree with Orange and Water being in that grouping.

cheese/beef/plain/chilli: subway sandwich?

I'm lost on the other one...

Plain / Beef / Chicken / Chili / Shrimp / Cheese - all flavours of ramen?
Suppress / Stun / Slow / Snare - all types of crowd control in League of Legends.

Something tells me the second one is a subset of one of the groups of 6, though.

We already have a grouping for bread. I feel it a bit redundant to have 2...
Here is a small hint to one of my 6 groupings... Posted Image

6, 13, 42, 66, 616, 666 - Numbers relating to life/death?

(It's probably something far more specific than that...)

I was going to say the number of moons in our galaxy divided up by the six planets (Venus and Mercury don't have any moons), but I don't think this fits the numbers correctly.

Correct grouping CJ, but incorrect reasoning.

The picture clue is still valid.

OK. Well, they're all multiples of 6.

Except 13. And 616. So, that's probably not it.
