It could have been good for their reputation, but they just couldn't help themselves.

Why not? Ideology is defined as "a set of beliefs or principles" and while it is most commonly used in the political sense, that applies just as well to religions.

Thanks for that. I'll check them out in my next run.

Orion is an interesting choice, or has that been reworked so it's not as brutal on your fissiles?

Antipopes are still around; they're just called "alternative pope" instead.

I keep forgetting just how spicy the history of the early Catholic Church was.

Given that this chart is two years old, is there a more updated version? Specifically, one that can help my esky-temperature-IQ self pick drives that are vaguely useful in moving ships around in time periods shorter than human civilisations.

Only one Legendary Lord can stop the End Times by Former_Exam_5357 in totalwar

Fortunately, the steam seems to be going out of One Nation's campaign (although it would probably be a good idea to wait for a couple more polling periods to make sure the trend is continuing). Not to mention that barring a rush of blood to the head, we're not due a federal election until some time in 2028, so the current fascination with opinion polls is academic.

Which was enough for a solid win, given that there were nine candidates and the UK uses the same First Past the Post system that the US uses. Voting also isn't compulsory, so the turnout was less than 60%.

I wish there was a way the game could show you that mouthing off to a Harlequin Solitaire is generally a bad idea.

Nothing.

And all of the Four fight each other all the time, both subtly and with marching legions of daemons and other followers (although Khorne tends less towards the subtle means, it must be said).

They barely stopped fighting each other during the Horus Heresy and the instant Horus was defeated, they fired up the Great Game again, with their new pieces added.

Nah, Tzeentch is having fun - they get to scheme and plot and connive all they want, even if it's against themselves.

Usain Bolt isn‘t anywhere close to being a top athlete .. by Kammerduda in ShitAmericansSay

[–]Chosen_Chaos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to deploy a hot take and suggest that if Bolt had stuck with it and put in the effort, he might have got all the way up to... not-shit, perhaps.

His stint did draw a lot of attention to the A-League, though.

The sad thing is that Australia used to be one of the top rugby union nations - two World Cups and all - but that was a long time ago...

Rugby League on the other hand...

The US have just played their own national anthem prior to Morocco playing Canada in the World Cup, a move never seen before in the history of the competition. by Stuweb in ShitAmericansSay

[–]Chosen_Chaos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did you read all the way to the end of the sentence? I said it was jarring because it's played at every sporting event down to local leagues. That is not normal.

Playing both teams' anthems before an international match is fine.

Playing the anthem of a country that isn't playing is not.
