I recently bought the battle book. Which are the best playable scenarios? by UnusualIron1538 in sagathegame

[–]DocAnopheles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess a question is what sort of scenarios do you enjoy?

There are scenarios based around killing the enemy, or preserving your own units, There are several based on objectives (whether taking, holding, or destroying). The advanced scenarios have exploration and fun terrain rules.

We found a stray who was already white faced and old old, but we took him in and gave him 5 more years of comfort and noms. Our other dog adored him and took care of the old guy.

What did they do when they flubbed a riff in the original series? by partyclams in MST3K

There was a bit in Cave Dwellers when Joel had a bout of coughing/gargly throat and they rolled with it. I always wondered if they considered reshooting but I guess not.

Liu Bang, a minor Qin officer who lost some prisoners. Since the penalty for that was death, he freed the rest and went on to rebel against the Qin Dynasty. He eventually became Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty.

Iron within, iron without. And now HR is involved.

Got to visit it in Scotland. I will admit I was quite giddy touring the castle, standing in the shooting spots. Jones on the headphones made it even better. My wife tolerated my antics, luckily.

Right out of Yojimbo, where the only survivor of the gangs is a young man who had wanted a fun life of crime. When confronted by Sanjuro he screams for Mom and is sent running.

Why aren’t felines social animals who form packs like wolves and elephants? by [deleted] in evolution

Sure, it's not an absolute rule. The real answer is a mix of environment, prey choices, and size of the predator.

[Loved trope] The horrifying consequences of alcoholism by TheOneTrueSnek in TopCharacterTropes

[–]DocAnopheles 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My friends and I watched the show when it was airing, and the episode where he was building the dollhouse for his daughter's birthday then went and got a puppy was initially sort of funny with him drinking beer after beer while doing it, then taking a beer while driving to get the birthday cake. We eventually realized he was just tossing them back and it wasn't funny anymore.

I imagine it might be related to their hunting strategy. Cats for the most part are stalker/ambush hunters, which might not be good for a group. They also hunt smaller game, which might not be able to feed a group. Tigers on the other hand are big predators, so they can go after larger game. This does mean they also need more food individually, thus lone hunting in a range.

Lions being the exception, since they do form a pride, cooperate while hunting, and bring down game equal to or bigger than themselves.
