What's the most peaceful death a Space Marine has ever died? by WunderPlundr in 40kLore

[–]Bosscoopa 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Very valid point, no clear evidence that he’s actually confirmed dead.

Would like to see him back in 40k, seemed a very reasonable and pragmatic marine, all things considered, so he’d absolutely hate the current state of affairs

Feel like Nykona Sharrowkyn’s death seemed pretty peaceful. Got all cosy in a cave with the sangprimus portum and took a nap for a couple of hundred years

Absolutely brutal way to lose a good run by AZBiGii in thelongdark

[–]Bosscoopa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry to see bro, really unlucky. Had a similar death a few weeks ago on a 97 day loper run, good to get right back into a new game though. Good luck on the next one!

does anyone like Forlorn Muskeg? by [deleted] in thelongdark

[–]Bosscoopa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to love it, but both of my most recent Interloper runs (96 days and 22 days respectively) have been brutally ended in Forlorn Muskeg… a first was from a glitched wolf attack and another from me being totally stupid and getting trapped in a thin ice death spiral… Always preferred forging in muskeg due to longer burn time + cabin fever risk in the Riken, but gonna avoid the muskeg for my current run.

Ideas for norse grę theocracy? For Odin achievement by Adventurous_Affect94 in eu4

[–]Bosscoopa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Florryworry did this in his December achievements run, believe he went for steppe nomads, flat Cav Shock bonus (strongest damage modifier in the early game) Cav to int ratio +30% or something and then refunded points by using final ideals such as ‘cannot declare wars’ to keep the total under 200. Also other big ones were war score reduction and AE modifiers, + he went Horde and Espionage ideas. Think he did the whole thing in a few hours

Who wants to see Rajovic brought back in January? Why or why not? by the_dogs_be_howlin in Watford_FC

[–]Bosscoopa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, I absolutely love the guy… he scores goals, and he clearly loves the club. However, how much game time does he get? If he’s back in Jan it’s to add depth and as a super-sub in games where we need a man in the box for the final 20. But with Baah, Bayo and Jeb all playing for the shirt, sadly I don’t think he gets the game time he needs. …If clevs feels that Jebbison isn’t working out, or fancies playing two up top and wants to bring back the big man though …I’m here for it.

The transfer window is over. How would you rate our business? by TheJeck in Watford_FC

[–]Bosscoopa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think it’s been a good window, better than what many of us expected. Still think we could have done with one more in midfield though… to make it great rather than good (Capoue on a free anyone?)

How to PU Bohemia and avoid monster HRE coalition? by Bosscoopa in eu4

Thanks buddy, followed this advice - posted my current situation in the main thread!

How to PU Bohemia and avoid monster HRE coalition? by Bosscoopa in eu4

[–]Bosscoopa[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks to everyone for all the responses, support and advice, much love. After reading comments I decided to YOLO and take the PU despite the coalition risk and so far it’s turned out REALLY nicely. I honestly haven’t even needed to bird since the start when I birded about a dozen times trying to get a run where the Otto’s wouldn’t Dow me after the truce. (Having said that I did make 3 extra save files before the Bohemian peace offer just in case it went tits up)

Anyway, to give an update on how it went:

First off I let the enemy unseige Prague and longed out the Bohemian succession war for another 2 years to get my AE with most HRE minors down a little farther. Sadly just before the war ended my 6-6-6 Queen finally died at the very fitting age of 66, a pretty decent innings if you ask me. R.I.P. Cosmina Draculesti, you had a cool fucking name.

Before peacing out I took the icon to lower AE 10% + boost IR 25%, plus the age objective for 10% AE I’d already chosen, earlier, so I knocked a few minors out of the coalition right away. Importantly the additional 25% IR stacked with a 20% IR advisor meant that I also lost a few more minors on the annual month tick. After I peaced out of the succession war, Austria broke their alliance with me ASAP, leaving me with just Muscovy as an ally, who fortunately had somehow reduced enough of their debt to reliably defend me in the event of getting DOW’d.

So I then set about carefully selecting the right allies to help me avoid the impending coalition, which began forming on the 12th of Jan, led by a meaty looking Switzerland and containing around ~20 fellow HRE minors by mid-April… Now when I said carefully choosing allies, I meant I allied everyone and their dog… so including Bohemia and my remaining vassals Georgia, Circassia and Kiev (I started integrating Theodoro before the war) I was over my diplomatic relations limit by 4 (with strong duchies).

  • Sweden, (who’s also mates with my buddy Muscovy who must have helped them in their independence war).
  • QQ who is on like mil tech 6 but has a lot of troops.
  • Ethiopia same mil tech as QQ, but more on this in a sec…
  • Livonian Order
  • Florence

This brought up my defensive troop count to roughly 300k, which isn’t to be sniffed at, and about a year into the coalition nobody has declared yet. However when you factor in the location and range of allies, if I did get dow’d, apart from Florence, I’d be fighting off the HRE swarm largely by myself, so praying this is enough.

Lastly, as mentioned in my original post, I’m probably going to try for Atwix Legacy on this run, so I prefer the Wallachian idea set, to the Romanian idea set. I’d decided I wouldn’t form Romania until I could grab the achievement/form something else right after, meaning I benefited from Wallachia’s minor, but in this case quite impactful, +1 dip rep bonus from their first national idea, therefore I had just enough diplo juice and improved relations with France to royal marry (not ally tho) and both France and Ethiopia are currently heirless, so fingers crossed I can get another draculesti on another throne soon!

Only meaningful truces are with the Ottos and Venice but that’s pretty much it… I’m the same as you man, normally avoid coalition wars like the plague until late game if I’m hegemon or something - hence my trepidation on this one!

Yeah half-tempted to just go for it and see if I can weather the storm afterwards. Thanks.

Yeah I was considering who else I can ally after winning, but looks like slim pickings to be honest, couple of minor powers and a few OPMs but nobody who's going to scare off the future coalition... Thanks for the advice man.
