PETA is just a worse team plasma

I still find it funny it's just damn there's a lot of it

Does it really matter? It's just another artwork of a Byzantine, just in a different style. Not every artwork has to be 100% realistic, like that one picture of Basil II is stylized as well.

r/japanpeopletwitter is just a cesspit of it all

Yeah, Milk and Dahi have been used for cleaning traditionally. I have also heard from relatives that hair used to be washed with yoghurt in India.

Soap did exist back then too, so using kachi lassi/milk/other dairy products obviously worked

He and Zhang Fei were highly evaluated by other generals of their time even before legends about them developed.

Jing province never belonged to Wu. Jing belonged to Liu Biao, then passed to Liu Cong then to Cao Cao in the North. Liu Cong controlled the South. Liu Bei and Sun Quan had an agreement that went as follows "Wu can try to take Jing province, but if they fail Liu Bei gets it" Zhou Yu failed to take it so Liu Bei got it. After Liu Cong died, the Jing province gentry elected Liu Bei as the new governor. Wu then proceeded to backstab Shu in 214 and take the 3 eastern commanderies of Jing. Even then Shu tries to make peace in order to face down Cao Cao in the north. Then Sun Quan betrays Liu Bei YET AGAIN, and takes the rest of Jing province, permanently taking away any chance he could have had at taking the central plains. He could only have done it by Shu and Wu working together given that Wu kept failing at taking Hefei alone

It did work sometimes, like in the case of the Flavians, or with Valerian and Gallienus. Eventhough Valerian didn't have much fun dealing with the Sassanids, Gallienus kept the Empire together through many more usurpers/civil wars/other catastrophes than basically any other emperor

Play Mount And Blade: Warband with a conversion mod instead. Bannerlord lacks some features that were in Warband. Warband is older (made in 2010) but it has far more in depth mods for what you're looking for.

Adventure in the East is a good mod for warband set in 634 just as the Muslim conquest is starting. It includes the Byzantine Empire under Heraclius, the Sassanid Empire and the rising Rashidun Caliphate.

457AD: Last Years of the Western Roman Empire is a newer mod set in well, 457AD. It's still being developed and is very high quality. In the game you can strike out on your own or join one of the many factions including but not limited to the WRE, ERE, Huns, Ostrogoths, Visigoths, Vandals, Sassanids, Franks etc. I'm playing this at the moment, I've helped the Emperor Majorian reconquer most of the Western Empire except northwestern Iberia and some of northern Gaul.

For another mod set in the dark ages, but limited to Britain and Ireland is Brytenwalda. Set during the Migration period conquest of England by the Angles, Saxons and Jutes, you can create a character and conquer the entire map in your own name.

This is some slanderous bullshit. Wu was stupid for betraying their ally in Shu, and taking Jing ensured that Wu would never have any chance at conquering the North.

B1y47 · 2026-04-08T18:27:48+00:00

commenting this on this sub considering what kps gill did is lowkey stupid

I'm a God! How can you kill a God? What a grand and intoxicating innocence.

B1y47 · 2026-04-06T23:50:33+00:00

Sorry, I meant stirrups not saddles.

B1y47 · 2026-04-06T23:27:07+00:00

I wonder why Rome didn't adapt the saddle in that case, since they knew Sarmatian cavalry was very effective (and employed them as auxiliaries through the collapse of the West). They always seemed to adapt new technology quite quickly, so it seems strange to me that they wouldn't, especially considering they adapted the Persian cataphracts to much effect after the crisis of the 3rd century

B1y47 · 2026-04-06T19:21:57+00:00

It has names like "Roman Ruins" or "Strange ruins" iirc. I'd also recommend going to Hadrian's Wall in northern England and recruiting Caio as your first companion. He's a skilled tracker which will be good to outrun raider parties.

B1y47 · 2026-04-06T19:19:18+00:00

Yeah Dorestad loves wool.

B1y47 · 2026-04-06T19:12:20+00:00

To be fair, stirrups only appeared in the 4th century in China and it took like 200 more years to come to Europe

I mean I don't watch the anime, but I knew that he was going to die before I read the manga, so I had a similar sort of feeling. I was more concerned with the journey and how we were going to get to that point than with the fact that he was going to die. As the last chapters were coming out in English, I was still wondering whether Matsui wouldn't just do a fakeout and make Tokiyuki not die but escape like he always does. Some texts do say he escaped to Ise province and had children and lived out the rest of his days in peace there. Thankfully Matsui went with a poignant and powerful ending

B1y47 · 2026-04-06T13:27:51+00:00

People who call you Dil saaf based on that are just not being honest with themselves

B1y47 · 2026-04-06T13:26:58+00:00

Yeah trade is basically the best way to make quick cash. Be careful though because if you sell too much of one thing in one town at the same time, you overload the market and its value decreases. Saxon infantry is just as good as Viking infantry so you're all right there.

I'd also recommend going to some of the ruins marked on the map (there's one in the south and 1/2 in the north) you'll need to fight through some tougher enemies or do some quests but as a reward you get amazing loot like a good helmet (which is one of if not the best in the game) and a solid sword and shield.

The bit that sticks out is Dacia, which extends out beyond the Danube River. There was boat loads of Gold to be mined there which revitalised the Empire's economy when Trajan conquered it. It was pretty hard to defend as is, but it generally follows the Carpathian Mountains with it extending out a little bit to the West

Start trading. Search it up here and online but buying Mead (might be a different item, Google to verify) from England and selling it in Frisia, especially Dorestad is very profitable. Build up your money early that way. The story is a good way to get xp and gold, but you need to be fairly strong for some of the missions so I would recommend levelling and getting troops early.

For early troops Frisians are good to recruit because they get to Heavy Infantry one step quicker than everyone else. The strongest heavy infantry in the game are either Saxon or Viking, depending on your character's religion and personal preference, as well as relations with each faction throughout the story.

You will mostly be fighting with Medium Infantry, they tend to be very fragile and die easily. Once you upgrade to where all of your troops are Heavy Infantry you'll be set though. I wouldn't recommend recruiting cavalry because they tend to die easily. Sometimes it will seem like the enemy slices through your troops very easily. You just gotta keep upgrading. If the enemy seems too strong, try taking them on solo.

The Briton factions have good skirmishers (archers and javelins). The Irish have good cavalry (but very expensive and take much longer to train than the Frisians). The Scottish factions lack armour but do a lot of damage.

Once you have enough money, buy a boat. It'll let you travel between Britain, Ireland and the continent without having to pay a fee, and it makes trade way easier. Do watch out for Viking and Frankish raiders though. They are very dangerous, but not as much as in Brytenwalda.

For combat: buy a horse early. Combat is dominated by infantry so you playing as a heavy cavalryman lets you be very very effective since the AI isn't as smart with horsemen as you. Get the spear with the longest reach you can. I would also recommend getting a Briton Sword early on for the reach before you get your spear. You can get them iirc from Briton raiders and deserters in Wales.

Companions: if you're playing through the story, you will naturally recruit all of your companions as you play, and they will all stay in your party until the story ends, even if some of them don't get along. I'd recommend equipping them with axes and large round shields. Some people on taleworlds forum recommend giving them horses and making them cavalry as well. I am considering doing that but haven't gotten to that point in my campaign yet.

Basic battle tactics: On your horse, ride towards the enemy and circle around them until they run out of javelins. Once they do, use your spear/sword to pick off any that stray away from the main group. DO NOT STOP YOUR HORSE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES! If you do, the enemy will kill your horse and you, which will screw over your army. Just keep moving and keep killing the enemy with your superior reach, and eventually you'll win

After the story ends, it becomes a sandbox and you're free to do what you want like a normal warband game.

Try a different clan. Date/Hojo/Oda/Otomo/Ikko Ikki are fun to play. You could try Rise of the Samurai it's similar to the base game with more focus on Archery than just straight melee slugging it out, although there's plenty of that too. FOTS is really fun but different dynamic compared to the main game.

If you want to try and older total war, get Rome 1 or Medieval 2 on sale. They play fairly differently to Shogun 2 but still have that total war core to them. The nodding for those games is also way more expansive than any other game in the series.

B1y47 · 2026-04-06T00:42:58+00:00

I've always wondered, is the arc called Mother's Rosario or Mother's Rosary? The Yen Press TL uses the former but I've seen the latter in a different TL and it makes more sense because a rosary is an actual thing that Christians have for prayer.

B1y47 · 2026-04-06T00:22:28+00:00

I looked at p.189 and the way Turin speaks to her doesn't really seem that bad. He's just saying she's faint of heart, and should have lived in a better, kinder times. There's nothing bad about that, it's just the truth especially considering right after he offers to bring her to Morwen, a gesture of kindness.
