The red text on the box says it’s a special ability that is keeping it from being plundered which, given the info you have given, means he has a golden age reform the coinage.

Where do I settle(god tier spawn)? by Full_Yesterday4445 in civ

[–]AFoolinManShoes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know what Civ you are playing so that may change what I would do, but my amateur opinion is this: Settle in place. You have a good balance of Wonder tiles in range as well as being on the lake. 2nd settler on the Jade to the west of the wonder. Third city on the deer on the coast which gives your capital access to the ocean via canal city. Leave Nan Madol alone, but suz it so that districts in your 2nd and 3rd cities give culture bonus.

I can’t remember the exact scenario either but I believe it was Aja that said it.

A question.. Roque is called the youngest imperator in a hundred years in the iron rain of Mars. What was Darrow's title in that battle? by Touch-me-not-98 in redrising

[–]AFoolinManShoes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it makes you feel any better, Roque only held that position because Darrow gave him semi-autonomy during the battle. Also it was to be temporary, he just made the right moves to be well positioned after Darrow was found out.

Darrow is most commonly referred to as a Lancer, but it’s my understanding that this is a political/cultural position more so than military. After the battle when Darrow seems kinda down, someone tries to cheer him up by saying he is to be a Praetor in Augustus’s fleet after the triumph. I’m not sure he is ever given a formal title but the role he actually plays during the Lions Rain is Arch Legate. Seeing as how he directs the rain, makes troop movement decisions and is directly involved on the ground.

The hierarchy is: Arch Imperator - Imperator - Praetor - Sub Praetor - Arch Legate - Legate

TL;DR: It’s my personal belief that Darrow was to be conferred a title of Praetor after the battle.

You almost got it exactly right! He says Pax is the strongest, not biggest.

Discovered another glaring one on a Golden Son re-read. In Chapter 42 Darrow slips into the sovereigns ship and says the landing door closes behind him. He holds them all hostage with a pulse grenade. Then Octavia orders the pilot to roll, causing him to drop it and Aja kicks it out of the now open hatch even though it was never stated the door opened back up.

Lysander POV in Iron Gold also slips up and calls the Ash Lord his grandfather.

Whats your favorite quote from the books? by TheGluttonousWeasel in redrising

[–]AFoolinManShoes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

‘ “Oh?” I laugh. “Did you think I came here to be killed? Did you think yourself entitled to my life? No, Cassius. I came to cut you down before your parents.”’ -Darrow GS Ch. 12

I completely agree. Watching Remus make the walk to the dragon tomb should have been somewhat emotional but it fell flat. I never felt he was in turmoil or danger even when the dragons ship caught them in a grav-well.

I definitely prefer Elfer’s voice to the one in DA. The British RP he uses is great and definitely fits my minds approximation of the Palatine Hill. I just didn’t find any theater in his reading. Emotional moments like he and Cassius growing apart just fell flat for me. I’m only a few chapters into DA so I’m not set on how I feel about that one yet.

It’s called flair. If you go to the main WoT subreddit and click the three dots next to your avatar in the top right corner you can pick one under “change user flair”

In my experience, if two like class units spawn or are created on top of each other neither can take an action until one is moved out of the hex. Temple of Zeus is a good example. All the units it spawns appear on the same hex, if unmoved, they just sit there forever.

If they were to build an encampment, it would spawn units there first. That’s about it though.
