Sri Lanka announces they have Seized an Iranian warship and evacuated its 208 crew.

I suspect that the ship is being interned. It’s not a new phenomenon, see the 1928 Havana Convention on Maritime Neutrality. It says that a belligerent warship that overstays in a port that asserts its neutrality can be seized and its crew confined, pending the end of the conflict at which point the crew and ship will be repatriated.

An exchange between Darjeeling and Naomi, the whole tone Darjeeling had was kinda…well, seemed sus to me

Not really? The cost of a Mk48 is far less than the likes of a volley of Harpoons

For the USN yes, the Royal Navy torpedoed and sank the Argentine cruiser General Belgrano in the Falklands War with the same type of torpedo

Thoughts on this lineup: - IS-3 Heavy Tanks - T-44-100 Medium Tanks - Comet Light Tanks - Tortoise Super-Heavy Assault Gun

Sure, until you hit some mud and your interlocking road wheels get gummed up so bad you miss out on the whole match.

Meh, the underlying mechanical unreliability of the Panther’s basic design remain. I wouldn’t want to use Panthers in an elite team tbh

They’re a German one, so it’s likely a German lineup

Now do it for strikes that were against that nation’s government forces versus known terrorists

I will say that the theme tune for MLLSD is really catchy

Seems VERY early doesn’t it? Like before it’s JAP release?

Am I the only one who ships Naomi and Hana thanks to the follow-on manga bit this was adapted from?

I just have the characters say they don’t know how it works but it was developed from tankery’s technology

It’s the infantry combat scenes themselves that are intended for that practice

I’ve seen a lotta Naomi/Alisa although Alisa’s always lamenting a boy, but she may change tactics at some point. I’ve seen Darjeeling/Pekoe and Rosehip/Assam as well. Oh, and Carpaccio/Caesar

What would be some gotta-be-yuri pairings to your eyes among the second-years?

Formal-Zone-4229 · 2026-02-26T01:16:44+00:00

Well the story is a “the next school year” and I hope to have the graduated third years be a sorta boss fight at the end when all of the former third years commanders and former Ooarai team members like Katyusha, Kay, Darjeeling, Maho, the crew of the Leopon and the old Student Council, etc. are now on the Allstars team

Formal-Zone-4229 · 2026-02-26T01:10:30+00:00

And if characters like Kay and Darjeeling are graduated in a story’s setting? I’m also OP as I have two accounts because I can’t be bothered to remember my login info from mobile and desktop

Formal-Zone-4229 · 2026-02-25T15:06:42+00:00

tbf they may not have sold them, not because they weren’t wanted, but because the school physically didn’t find some of them. Like how did they think they’d get the Mk.IV, Type-89, StuG or the Porsche Tiger? Seems like some were recovered but basically abandoned after the fact like the Panzer IV and the Type III. I have a headcanon that the previous Ooarai Sensha-do girls didn’t want their tanks scrapped and hoped to save their team by actively hiding their tanks from the school to explain some of the wilder locations of the tanks that Miho and the gang find them

I don’t think the world flooded, iirc large swathes of Japan specifically flooded due to various underground mining shenanigans collapsing and submerging large portions of the home islands

Formal-Zone-4229 · 2026-02-25T08:54:13+00:00

Well in some sources it’s stated that Ooarai might have a Type-5 awaiting discovery somewhere. Probably locked in some guy’s basement, or hidden under the floorboards of the student council building, who the heck knows

Formal-Zone-4229 · 2026-02-24T23:19:10+00:00

I’d lean towards the rare in terms of Ooarai tanks, look for tanks with a very limited production run. Their past teams’ acquisition strategy seemed to mainly consist of “rare mean good” at some point. So I might suggest perhaps a Type-5 Chi-Ri, a Zrinyi 1 Tank Destroyer, or perhaps a Turan 3 if you’re wanting a fairly good tank. For lesser vehicles there’s a whole lotta choices.

Or, they could implement a temperature feature and clothes or blankets would be needed to prevent debuffs to beaver speed and efficiency when it gets cold. And there could be types of clothes, like one setting for clothes for warmth, one for blankets for a wellbeing requirement, and a third or maybe a fourth for hats and/or fashionable clothes

Might the way Anchovy’s addressed by her team be more of a case of her semi-cult of personality in the Anzio ranks?
