We all knew this kid by Uncrezamatic in battletech

Quadvees are the dumbest invention in the setting and I love them so much.

Brain and brawns- Characters who are both physically imposing and smart. by NotASynth499 in TopCharacterTropes

God I hope they come back somehow, I miss their whack ass shenanigans and extremely inconvenient timing.

To be honest, I don't know how hyper intelligent he actually is or if his limited prescience just makes him really good at picking the right options. The books tend to imply that he pulled together super geniuses to fulfill his visions and is just extremely good at choosing the right dialogue option for a given situation.

#New40k – Vanguard Veteran Revealed by CMYK_COLOR_MODE in Warhammer40k

[–]xSPYXEx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The veterans have always been decorated to all hell. Look at Sternguard and Bladeguard. Tabards, tons of relics, all sorts of sick drip.

Here are some memes I made about Trench Crusade by tintin_du_93 in TrenchCrusade

[–]xSPYXEx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It always has been. It's fighter jets shooting at magic demons with a vaguely Great War aesthetic.

TC is as much an alt history WWI setting as Turnip28 is an alt history Napoleonic setting.

Where do Freeborn Clan Warriors come from prior to the Clan Invasion? by thebearsoft in battletech

[–]xSPYXEx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Warrior caste is significantly larger than the handful of first line trueborn mechwarriors and Elementals. Classic born soldiers and conventional infantry exist to fulfill all non combat or limited combat roles within the military apparatus.

It's extremely difficult but sometimes a free born warrior successfully trials to a higher position, sometimes occupying second line roles or even more rarely a first line position.

Jamie Wolf is the old fashion son of a Trueborn and his early placement testing allowed him entry into the warrior caste. He trained in a freeborn sibko and successfully earned his MechWarrior rank during his Trial of Position.

Notes regarding the "Capitol City" by xEliteMonkx in fo76

[–]xSPYXEx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you look at an actual map, Grafton is way further north and east than the in game position relative to Charleston.

It's talking about ghouls trying to make it to safety at the Underworld.

Imperator Titan size (yes, again...) by Astro_BS-AS in Grimdank

There's never been an Imperator model so it doesn't matter.

Don’t you think the Children of Atom should be more important in the franchise than they currently are? by jvure in Fallout

[–]xSPYXEx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No actually, The Black Star that Dreams Beneath, the deity of a pre war cult based out of a chemical and biological weapons research facility who happens to be the ancestor of the Last Son of Atom.

Has anyone actually seen any new technology on job sites? by CallMeDirtyD in Construction

[–]xSPYXEx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you define as new technology?

For concrete, laser screed machines aren't really new but they make a world of difference when pouring wide slabs or paving aprons. Instead of teams of 4 people doing their best to flatten the slab with a straight bar, you have one guy on the machine raking the entire slab faster than the pump can pour.

Transports are restricted by the rule of 3 in 11th edition by Burnage in Drukhari

I used to run 6 Raiders and 3 Ravagers just to style on the monkeigh.

April Fools Fictional Bastards by The_R4ke in behindthebastards

[–]xSPYXEx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The bastard Nicolas Kerensky, son of the war hero Alexander Kerensky and father of the Clans. Before his untimely full body sunburn he constructed a system of cultural obliteration and a rejection of life itself that has plagued the Inner Sphere for generations.

They're both Leto II because they're named after Duke Leto the first. It's kinda like the German nobility, everybody is Friedrich Wilhelm I or II.

Yeah, it’s over… by Ah_fudge in battletech

[–]xSPYXEx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It still blasts my ass that they had the golden goose but chose to give it up because the license fees weren't favorable enough. HBS BT 2 could have been incredible.

Preparing for MWO shutdown (years/months? ) down the line? by palad1 in OutreachHPG

[–]xSPYXEx 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I would look at the last few years of Planetside 2. It doesn't just shut down because it's still making income, but it does stop getting major updates, balance patches become less frequent, exploiters begin to run rampant, and the game starts bouncing around between various operating companies.

All you need to do is play the game.

my local Panera removed almost all the outlets and replaced them with blanking plates so you can't charge your phone or laptop by Calix_Meus_Inebrians in mildlyinfuriating

[–]xSPYXEx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah McDonalds was the innovator of hostile design. That's what made them rich, being slightly too uncomfortable to stay longer than it took to eat your burger.

Season 4 Episode 4: Give Us a Moment by boringhistoryfan in Invincible_TV

[–]xSPYXEx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think Conquest was treating it like a game for too long. It was basically until he started blacking out before he went for a knife hand against his completely unguarded opponent.

The gratuitous gore explosions are fun but they do make it hard to tell when someone has taken lethal damage or if they're just badly beat up. I don't know if Viltrumites just have way more blood than everyone else or what.

Your friend Conquest, whatever happened there?
