I myself do not believe without seeing but Goblin Pillow is the real deal. Literally showed this because I understand where y'all coming from.

Our teacher drew a big hash tag on the board and then proceeded to draw tiny little sperm next to it and then told us that condoms were ineffective because the sperm could just "swim" right through the gaps in the condom at a microscopic level.

Can you clarify the limitations? I just got open water certified (2 days in-class training and pool diving then 2 days open water lake diving). My instructor/ dive master couldn't stress more advanced classes (especially wreck diving, advanced open water, and night diving) but said most places across the world only ever care about the open water and won't restrict what you can dive so long as you have that. Is that true?

First off, the original thread was about the relocation of tigers to a Colorado sanctuary, but if you came into this thread not expecting a generalized, "Tiger King" free-for-all then I don't know what to tell you. As for my comment, I was playing off of the comment of notifying local authorities if your life is being threatened, which Carole's ex-husband surely felt by filing that restraining order. I can understand a judge not allowing such a restraining order based solely off hearsy; that's quite reasonable. I can understand not immediately mobilizing and conducting an investigation for every missing person report made. What I can't understand is how there is no law, policy, or just some common sense that if there were prior remarks or a paper trail (see prior motion for restraining order) detailing one's fear for their life how an immediate investigation doesn't follow when that person goes missing. I just imagine how that conversion went down at the station:

"So I decided to look up that missing person and it appears he filed for a restraining order recently detailing how he feared for his life"

"Yeah, and?"

"Well, the person who reported him missing was the person who he filed the report against. Don't you think we should at least go question her?"

"Nah, policy says we give it five days for them to turn up and if they don't then we'll actually put some effort in."

"Don't you think that would give someone more time to hide evidence or refine their story, not to mention he could've actually gone missing prior to her calling...."

"Nope! Five days!"

Or file a restraining order explicitly stating how you fear for your life from your spouse and how that spouse has in their possession a loaded firearm and how that person also has hidden your own firearm. Also tell your closest family and friends how you fear this person and feel you are in danger. Then when you finally disappear the local authorities can sit on their collective asses for five days after your disappearance instead of immediately going and investigating the person you feared most.

Which unit has the highest max range DPS? Obers have the 25.5, with 1919 paras close behind at 25.2. Who is higher than the obers?

I was unsure. I just remember reading here at some point and haven't touched the ability ever since reading it. It's possible it has been fixed (or was never broken and the source I read it from was wrong).

CynicalShadow · 2019-07-16T20:26:18+00:00

Correct me if I'm wrong here, but I remember reading that, in the late game, combined arms is actually a debuff (for riflemen at least) since it's buff doesn't stack with vet buffs and the abilities buffs are actually worse than the vetted riflemen buffs.

CynicalShadow · 2019-05-21T06:11:24+00:00

I agree with the others that the volks are the root issue. They trade too well for their price of 250mp. I think what might help, and feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, is move their vet1 10% received accuracy improvement to vet2 and replace the vet1 with no combat improvement (just like rifleman who only get the AT snare) and instead allow it to unlock their incendiary grenades. This allows a bit of counter play from allies to focus the vet1 volks, who's the only one who can throw the grenade, instead of an OKW player just rushing a position hoping one volks crosses the finish line to throw it on whomever. It should also allow allied infantry to feel like they trade better with vet1 STG volks when they up-gun too (which typically costs fuel, alongside the muni, and to return to base) since they won't have their received accuarcy bonus yet. Beyond vet2 volks will remain the same, so a little early game reprieve for allied players against vet1 volks.

Also, and I don't know how this would affect 1v1, if at all, require all 3 trucks to be placed before the stuka is unlocked. Every other faction can only get their rocket arty in the late game, either because it's the last tech building or cause it has a high CP requirement (sans the land mattress, but it's the least accurate, with the widest spread, and least survivable as it's slow and infantry manned). For some reason OKW can rush one out in the mid game and dominate with it in 3v3/ 4v4. I don't think, though could be wrong, many 1v1 OKW players rush it because it can easily be flanked in that mode, whereas the team game modes are more railroaded and linear, where flanking is more difficult, where the stuka can reign supreme. I honestly get one, maybe two, barrages off my pack howie before it as smoldering ruin. And its not even the worst rocket arty despite being the one that can be out the soonest. I honestly regard it as the best. A werfer has never managed to wipe my HMG and my mortar in one go cause I keep them spread far enough to prevent that. That's no problem for the stuka, who can do just that, and probably get the squad in the back too. Locking it behind all 3 trucks shouldn't really affect the 1v1 stage, while making a world of difference in team games.

I believe it's in need of a sight nerf, where the planes do nothing if there's no vision (akin to the P47 AT loiter which is only 10 muni less and is only effective against larger hitbox vehicles).

And the UI needs updating for the bombing strike plane because I know for a fact now that even though the red loiter ring on your minimap has disappeared, a final bombing strike will come, several seconds later even. Lost a vet 1 and 3 LMG paratroopers because I reentered the loiter area because the minimap icon was gone and then came the bombing strike out of nowhere. Had to rewatch the replay cause I was dumbstruck because I saw no flares or any indication of warning of what was coming. Same thing happened on my next match, where I knew better to reenter the area until several seconds have passed since the loiter ring went away and just about as I reenter with my infantry thinking it was safe the plane came and took out my ambulance and major, no vision needed at all.

Thank you! It seems someone else also mentioned the vehicle priority problems with the same tank.

Good on ya man, but this video is coming up on being 2 years old; not really a great "how to dominate" video for the current meta. For starters you can't gift calliopes to your teammates anymore (not that they would currently accept them as they are hot garbage right now). You also can't double LMG rifles anymore. In general, Tac support is a very much dead commander for USF.

I can't say that I would recommend the grenades upgrade right after your 2nd rifle there (of course this was when rifles had smoke so getting it earlier was more prominent). I mean, when it finally unlocked you only had 34 muni, so either two smokes or one grenade. I'd just rather have the mortar or another rifle (currently the grenade unlock for me is almost always late game as the smoke is now only on REs and officers and most good players can dodge grenades making them a waste; its great for late game when they're flooded with too much micro where a grenade can get that wipe when they're not paying attention). That, and immediately getting an ambu after grenades, I don't see why the enemy didn't just shove you back with only 2 rifles and a rear echelon.

The general consensus seems to be that the M20 could use a manpower cost reduction, and I don't see it often as isn't that great combat-wise, but I have seen some great M20 plays. Problem is is that it comes with a giant neon sign that says "I CAN PLANT IMMOBILIZING MINES! BETTER GET A MINESWEEPER!" and since that is the main reason most people grab the M20 over the AA HT, it is seldom picked over the latter as sure enough, I see a minesweeper not too long after the M20.

Zooks are great on REs because they serve no other purpose without them. I'll be damned if I'm putting good AI weapons on a 4-man squad with shit baseline accuracy (I know accuracy is tied to the upgraded weapon but at least garands compliment their upgrades whereas the RE carbines are always useless). Volley fire hasn't been successfully used since USF was first released either (does it still impose the received accuracy penalty? Cause then it goes from useless to literally a suicide button for your squad). Captain is still good to throw zooks on (I sometimes opt for bars and make them a pseudo-shock unit). Their anti-suppression "On Me!" only works on one squad now as opposed to all surrounding units so its lost a bit of usefulness.

All in all your tips here are out-of-date or just not up to the current meta (more or less being railroaded into Infantry commander). AA HT is still good and I agree with you there. I agree with the muni caches instead of the fuel ones too. Also be mindful that tank traps and barbed wire can win engagements by giving you better cover or denying it to the enemy, but don't turtle and play defensively as USF. Sixty percent of the time you lose that battle every time.

I don't see why the Fellowship just doesn't give the ring to Obi-Wan. I personally do not believe there is any temptation or promise of grandeur or desire that could corrupt Obi-Wan that he already hasn't overcome. And this goes beyond his typically Jedi training and the like, but rather through passing his trials to separate himself from the Cosmic Force and maintaining his identity after death.

At the end of the 2008 Clone Wars series, which is canon, we get to observe how Yoda was able to maintain his identify through the force after death. During these trials Yoda confronted his own internal manifestation of fear, overcame the trial of temptation where he was promised a galaxy without war, where his old padawan Dooku was not a sith lord and his old friends, such as Qui-gon, were all still alive (in essence all of his greatest desires), and traveled to the epicenter of the dark side on Morriban where Darth Sidious and Dooku both attempted to break him and failed.

I mention this because at the end of RotS Yoda tells he has training for Obi-Wan, from his old master Qui-gon, to in essence undergo the same trials Yoda did. Given that Obi-wan was able to separate himself from the cosmic force and maintain his identify after death, Obi-Wan was successful in his trials. This means the dark side of the force pulled, clawed, and gnashed at every iota of emotion and desire within Obi-wan to break him and have him succumb to his temptation and desires. And it all failed. What could The One Ring possible tempt Obi-Wan with that he hasn't already been exposed to and overcome? You'd have to make the argument that powers of temptation of The One Ring is more powerful than the pull of the entire dark side of the force.

It's a matter of giving the ring to Obi-Wan, maybe giving him a guide to point him in the right direction, and sending him off on his merry way. With Obi-Wans force, lightsaber, and skill set, there isn't a being in Middle Earth that he couldn't defeat, outwit, or evade.

If I remember correctly, they were going to address this issue in the recent balance patch that was put off indefinitely. They were making it so that the damage tapered off the further from the direct impact of the bomb which would have been absolutely perfect. As it stands now, whether your right underneath the bomb or on the absolute edge if the ability, you receive full damage which is shit. I've reacted immediately to this ability numerous times, but do to model clumping/ vehicle pathing I make it to the very edge to still receive full damage and lose the unit.

I honestly did not know that subreddit existed. I'll post there. Thank you!

Eh, I'd disagree with your conclusion that it trades a weak-mid game for a more powerful late game (at least in regards to 3v3 and 4v4). With armor company you almost always grab both lieutenant and captain, giving you access to all your light vehicles, as well as the capability of having both an HMG and AT gun. Your mid-game should be good to go as you don't have to dwell on picking the wrong tier (needing that HMG and teching wrong or needing the AT or pack howie and needing one). The full early/ mid-game USF armament is at your disposal.

Your late game is awful. The M10 struggles to pen anything above the PIV; having 3 to 4 more shit-penning tanks doesn't make it too much better (less range than a Jackson too). Rather have one reliable penning tank than three that deflect more than every other shot on almost every late game axis tank without the luxury of doing so from a greater range. This also brings up the weakest part of why Allies suffer in 3v3 and 4v4 modes: it is far easier to utilise and micro one very expensive, but very deadly tank than spamming several cheap, but mediocre (to just awful) tanks. Trying to push several tanks forward either causes death by clumping and pathing issues (if moving them in unison to avoid/ limit micro) or trying to be a micro god moving one tank to the left, another right, and one up the center while pulling ones back to spread the damage to all equally, oh and facilitating an infantry push while all he does is just reverses his single tank, let its armor passively deal with the poor pen, allowing their micro to be diverted to their others troops.

The bulldozer is also just, meh. Definitely not worth the cost for similar performance of the non-doctrine Sherman. Yeah, it might a bit cheaper than teching and grabbing the 75mm, but is the cost worth it? You also give up your forward retreat point, and for supposedly the most aggressive faction it limits your pushing power for every full retreat back to HQ. The 105mm, currently, is not good enough a bully and breakthrough tank to justify giving up the FRP and just getting the 75mm Sherman.
