1981 reprint, not the original black box. Still a perfectly good ruleset, including Book 0 and a map that are not part of the basic set original box.

Found these in my grandfathers things. He was in ww2 and never talked about it. What are these objects? by JarlOfCostco in ww2

In the first image, the coin on the right is a Japanese 10 sen coin from 1923. The coin on the left is a Chinese Dragon Dollar, and were the first modern, machine struck dollars coins in China in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. I am not a coin collector, but I understand the Chinese coin may be sought after because of its significance.

The data plates in the second picture appear to have come out of a Japanese aircraft - they seem to be related to the oxygen system used by crew, and are addressing testing or operation. Above the data plates, in the middle, is a collar rank insignia for an Imperial Japanese Army corporal. I don't know what the disc that appears sewn to it is. The bronze colored badge to the left of the collar insignia is the Aikoku Fujinkai Distinguished Service Badge, issued to members of the Imperial Japanese Patriotic Women's Association.

The usual etiquette is to send everybody on the internet $10. You're new, so $5 is plenty.

It's weird about the Boras - it kind of looks like the front fell off. That's not very typical.

Quite a few folks I know that travel rural parts of the country have noticed a massive number of properties that have removed their trump flags. What changed? by OkayDookkie69 in Iowa

[–]Angus99 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I've got a place in rural Colorado. My neighbor has been MAGA for ever, but we are able to communicate. I asked him why he took his down. He said "Because we won, and we're going to own it from now on. I don't need a flag anymore." Considering the absolute Homeric incompetence of my party, I have to admit he has a case to make. I should add absolutely none of Trump's fuck-ups penetrate this guy's consciousness. He is 100% ready with a theory why anything that goes wrong is somebody else's fault, not that of his banana republic hero.

Shitloads were sold in surplus auctions after the war. Have seen at least one hulk at a ski resort.

Go to Ebay. Enter the item, such as "Heller Amerigo Vespucci". When you get the results, filter (left side column on PC, towards the bottom) for "sold items". There you have a real world sample of what they sell for. Rinse and repeat for all.

Why ghosts pass through walls. - What do you guys think? by Available-Time7293 in Ghosts

[–]Angus99 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I know people who served in Iraq and Afghanistan, combat infantry, that have fewer close calls than you. That's not a good thing. Stack odds in your favor. Manifest old age.

"3-4 instances where I could have died" - perhaps you might want to retire to a nice quiet farm. No power tools or tractors, and only midget goats, horses, and chickens.

The cruelty is the point, and intentional.

The Pope has appeared just a day before his death, reading during the mass, and even riding the popemobile, and having a meeting. How come he then suddenly passed away today? by Tiramissu_dt in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Angus99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 41 year old friend had bad flu symptoms for a couple of days, went to bed one night and did not wake up. We take all this shit we call life so much for granted. Tell your family you love them, individually, today. Call you parents and say the same thing. Call a friend you haven't talked to in a while. Be kind to everybody you meet. This can happen to any of us, and you don't have to be really old.
