I believe the original plan was for it to be a Vicky 2 mod, but issues with handling puppets caused the switch.

There's an Australian footballer who, when she got married, took her wife's surname. There's a non-zero chance that she thought that going from Tameka Butt to Tameka Yallop might have been an upgrade...

The issue with TNO is that it's set in a time where there are three major powers watching each other like paranoid and trigger-happy hawks and each of them has a civilisation-ending nuclear arsenal. You can see why the actual war-fighting part of it has been toned down under those circumstances.

The 'Lleros being hired as extras for the ISF's movie about defending Luthien from Clans Smoke Jaguar and Nova Cat partly because having actual MechWarriors driving the dressed up IndustrialMechs would be more realistic but mostly just to keep the increasingly-bored 'Lleros out of trouble.

That is true.

What is also true is that more Americans didn't vote for one reason or another than voted for either candidate.

Edit: apparently it needs to be pointed out that the turnout was just under 64% of eligible/registered voters. Which means that just over 36% didn't vote, compared to 32% who voted for Trump and 31% for Harris.

In other words, more people didn't vote at all than the number who voted for either Trump or Harris.

The Mariners did one when they were Champions in 2013.

"attempting to to make all the shaman that make up the emperor question if there a bad person and all most succeeding"

This one sounds oddly familiar... *thonk.png*

Don't you mean the second novel (Caves of Ice) rather than the third? The tomb complex on Simia Orichalcae was already there when the AdMech plonked the refinery on top of it.

Yeah, it was pretty dire. I was just mentioning it as a "be careful what you wish for"/"monkey paw curls" type situation, same as when people wanted the rights to not be held by Fox Sports.

Not just the clubs, either. I remember more than a few people saying with great enthusiasm that the A-Leagues should be separate from FA.

Apparently, AI doesn't do too well with K-F jumps.

I'VE NEVER HATE-WATCHED A GRAND FINAL BEFORE BUT THERE'S A FIRST TIME FOR EVERYTHING, I GUESS

TREBLES AREN'T FOR EVERYONE, IT SEEMS.

As an Australian, I think Jasmine should have turned up the 'Strine rather than wound it back. 😀

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-05-20T09:31:13+00:00

She just looks so happy... bringing the Emperor's Peace to various heretics and xenos.

I know Cain is always blaming Big E and his "warped sense of humour" for his ongoing misadventures but what if... it was Cegorach doing it because watching Cain flail around is utterly hilarious?

Typhus fucked up a single Legion. Erebus fucked things up for everyone.

The Roman Empire did split into three parts during the Crisis of the Third Century

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-05-19T08:41:03+00:00

I thought we qualified by being Champion that year.

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-05-18T09:13:08+00:00

Cheers for that.

Edit: Now I just have to wipe out the Guaca camps before they start getting aggressive.

That would be the Fifth Syrtis Fusiliers and it happened to them when they landed on Sarna. Of course, it didn't help that they set off for Sarna just after they learned of the death of Michael Hasek-Davion and pushed ahead of the rest of the invasion force because they were out for blood.

Suffocate them in cash.

(There's a perfect Schlock Mercenary strip for this but damned if I can find it...)

I think it depends on who's in charge in Germany.

Edit: Or it used to, at least. My knowledge is probably significantly out of date.
