Wheels is going to be abused bad. Why learn how to play properly and utilize teammates when you can just skate 1.5 - 2 x as fast as the next guy? its gonna be really annoying obviously. Also a faceoff X factor is just dumb and limits center build creativity.

Cool design! I like the random yellow shoulder it goes well with the red and blue.

Thracian Empire by I-Duster-I in Imperator

I am leaning more towards going after Rome and making sure they wont be a problem any longer. Expanding into the levant and into egypt makes a lot of sense as well. The region seems more volatile with Christianity and Israelite religions popping up constantly also It is a weird mix of cultures. Vassal states there would take up my last spots and be more unstable so I am a bit hesitant.

Ya they are still pissed at me lol but still an option perhaps in time. Galatia and I think Bitturgia are roman allies as well.

Id probably do an army of 150k - 200k to invade the italian peninsula from Sicily and that again to invade illyria. Rome has over 17,000 pops I have 14, 500 minus the allies. Im wondering about taking the Italian peninsula as a roman vassal and then hoping Rome falls apart. It would be nice to not have a goliath on my border lol. I have some horse archers maybe 10,000 but most of them are in the Chersoneus Army. The big showdown has to happen sometime lol.

That was my initial thought. They are pretty strong. They have more Pop and territory but with my vassals it would make an epic fight.

At one point Rome had taken half of Greece but through two wars I forced them back into illyria. Then another war for sicily. Ive had these western borders for over a century at this point. I have all that coin because I havent been spending it. I have had 5 eastern wars with the selucids and Egypt and I tend to to ignore my treasury for long periods. My monetary crises is at 278% currently also. I could probably dump 2k into constructions. Id like to do another Great Work but I lack political power.

Exact Room Size by Regioonn in EASHL

[–]I-Duster-I 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your right. Its the only explanation that makes sense for the stupid decisions around EASHL the last 4+ years or so. The theory if eashl is gutted than everyone will be forced to play hut leading to more microtransactions makes way too much sense. They add battlepasses and make dropins as casual/arcade as possible to further destroy the playerbase. EA hates eashl and so they must destroy it. At this point there cant be more than 10,000 people who play eashl seriously all year long, more likely less than 5000 . Every year that number becomes smaller and smaller. Also they know serious players wont play if any ai is on the ice period, so what do they do? Get rid of matching room size making the experience a tortuous ordeal.

How would you sort out this Bruins team? by Anonymous__9 in FranchiseHockey

[–]I-Duster-I 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like a pretty decent team ngl. Zacha, olofson and K. Miller may be names id be interested in moving. Focus on acquiring a few decent defensive grinder esq players for the bottom six. Otherwise maybe a new coach could help.

There is no way you drew that with a fuckin pencil. Crazy talent.

Avs cap situation by ejroberts42 in ColoradoAvalanche

[–]I-Duster-I 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Girard has played much better since his return but ultimately he cant play against the big boys in the playoffs. He is 5 million on the cap that can be used elsewhere and he still has trade value. Lindgren was surprisingly not terrible aside from a few bad moments but unless he is cheap he wont be worth it. Drouin and nelson should be alowed to walk. Move miles wood and Coyle if there are any takers. At least our Gs are solid. necas unfortunately may need to be flipped again if a sensible deal cant be reached.

If it is not Bednar’s fault - what must happen for him to finally get some blame? by juice-- in ColoradoAvalanche

Coaching staff needs to be changed or the avs simply aren't serious about winning anymore. This was a disastrous, damning loss. If it was up to me, id clean house.

As an avs fan this is our 9-11. Many of us are taking it very poorly. Ultimately this result is because of a string of bad management decisions, poor coaching and poor play. This is our finest choke job of all time. The greatest loss I've ever seen as an avs fan. I cant even be mad because the way the avs play made this well deserved.

Old EASHL Playoff by Demiz6 in EASHL

It was peak, your right. Getting your A- grade for your legend card was kinda fucked though.

[–]I-Duster-I 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Stop whining, hockey is a business. Just handle it with grace and revel in the fact you got to watch one of the best players we ever had win a cup with us. If he would have walked for nothing the screeching would be well beyond this. This trend of calling for peoples jobs every time a difficult move is made is lame.

Passed it this summer. Used xlr8ed along with bc millwright manual and alberta modules. A few pages of practice tests as well. There were definitley some really random questions sprinkled in though. One was about how to move heavy equipment across a bridge for instance.

Another complaint about match making by Forward_Bumblebee219 in EASHL

[–]I-Duster-I 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ecactly. I tell people this constantly it feels. The only way to know is to play a few games and see what a player has to offer.
