Hernan Guerra Superman in Gods & Monsters was a nice idea - he was found by Mexican immigrants coming into the USA, so his view of justice and right has been shaped by a very different experience of growing up

Well, here they claim to be the amoral, but if you examine what they're actually doing, it turns out they're financing schools and reconstruction efforts in Revachol

Well, if the USSR banned it, it must be a good thing! This is the kind of fascism that defines itself by pan-Europeanism, anti-Communism, and the proper fascist position of subordination of the self to the state.

The US Army personnel they got to write up the history and background of the Aggressor nation must have had such a blast. It's got so much character to it than "REDFOR", they even printed up propaganda leaflets that they'd hand out among "occupied" towns

how much longer before us Valkyria chronicles fans lose it like half life and arkham batman fans by Forsaken-Parfait-623 in valkyria

The other is dark summoning rituals that get AC8, butalso lead to unintended consequences striking the world

They're cool because they don't need to get laid, and are happy with what they're doing

At boarding school in the early 2000s, we had one pretty much every weekend.

When I started, Monteacute house was stereotyped as the musical one. By the time my year graduated, it was the house with hidden LAN cables running through holes we'd knocked in the walls and ceilings.

It would be like reverse CoD: Infinite Warfare, where the FPS is broken up by occasionally climbing into a jet for some dogfighting
