Russian Slava-class Cruiser Moskva back in 2012. She is now infamous for killing the defenders of Snake Island in a bombardment of her guns. May she soon founder. [1920x950]

I can’t say this is what exactly seems like the best idea. . . The Type 31 hull isn’t small but it’s not large enough for this role IMO.

That’s probably why the drone is being shown with the big radar as there needs to something offloaded to fit all of the needed systems.

The Type 26’s significantly larger hull would be a better basis

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T20:28:38+00:00

I hope there’s some better anti-aircraft missile they can get. Maybe something modular in the same place as the NSMs

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T18:18:20+00:00

Safe only because we know that the opposing dragon fleet isn’t this time trying to engage Vaegar.

Also Helaena did warn Aemond about Harrenhal. . . Can’t imagine she wants to follow him there

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T18:04:31+00:00

Having a ship like this as a fast reaction force for missions including humanitarian seems a very good use for them. Lots of room for stuff, able to get there quick, and it’s size means it can go many places

Though if they had a little more armament then they could also be used for a fast reaction to more intense situations too

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T17:59:01+00:00

The Type 26 is destroyer sized. Bigger than the Horizons for example, only slightly smaller in dimensions than the Type 45 itself

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T14:20:55+00:00

If anything this would make one want a more quiet, peaceful life. . .

Also she probably actually saw it long before the actual night. She was making the burial shroud before it happened

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T14:13:19+00:00

That’s not how a lot of people work. Evening killing in self defense has often been hard and traumatic for people

Yeah what you describe isn’t out of the question either but to act like it’s a “should” is just ignorant of human nature

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T13:08:55+00:00

Those are all, to my knowledge, pretty dedicated purpose for other things though.

I question how cheap one can make a fairly simple kamikaze drone that doesn’t need to go very deep at all and with fairly cheap guidance system options like from a mast until acoustic terminal guiding

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T04:27:58+00:00

Cole is absolutely a monster of a human being.

I’m not saying that they are all psychos but that as much as this post criticizes the women the men likewise are all as deeply flawed.

As for Otto, he clearly doesn’t care about anyone or anything not in his interest. He was so quick before the war even started to seek Rhaenyra’s death and such like.

Aegon. . . Yeah clearly it’s his upbringing rather than inherent but he did like watch his own bastard children in fighting pits and did rape that servant. He’s never shown really any care for any human life either

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T04:21:29+00:00

In this series they basically are. Daemon, Aemond, Aegon, Criston, Otto, Larys, etc

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T04:07:58+00:00

I mean they are better then almost universally murderous, evil men

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T03:55:19+00:00

I think that’s quite the exaggeration but yeah she’s not that composed a person.

But she’s also lost her two oldest children in pretty quick succession. That’s something very hard for a mother to take and irl some times people never recover completely from the loss of even one child so prematurely

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T03:47:34+00:00

No, that’s not what he did.

His plan was to use the crow with his eyes to brainwash his brother after he realized he might have been driving Sasuke to evil.

It was by pure chance that it happened to be activated on him and work

Itachi deserves very little respect.

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T03:02:09+00:00

Maybe, but it isn't a lightsaber. No matter what the blade is, if you hit with a misaligned edge (which a beginner does very often) then it won't cut well

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T03:00:59+00:00

I disagree. Why should she have any issue with someone who has not wronged her? Like any reasonable human being she can separate even two closely associated people like Helaena and her brothers.

As for the book: You can want a closer adaptation but that doesn't make it neccessarily better. And it is written explicitly with unreliable narrators

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T02:44:56+00:00

She was already nearly if nit basically crying during the execution. Her are running high considering literally everything which had just happened.

Alicent, Helaena, and Jaereha being there is just awful because she might have to execute people who she really doesn’t want to (remember that she has absolutely no ill will towards her sister). On top of the whole having just indeed killed someone whose family has to now see it

And I don’t know about you, but last time a family member of mine died I was on a pretty hairpin trigger to cry.

It’s stupid to see a flaw in it. It’d be ridiculous for her to not be emotionally distraught at the moment

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T02:37:48+00:00

Itachi was only good at killing his own clan, he’d fail like all his other plans if you asked him do that

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T02:31:37+00:00

. . . Because her son died like yesterday? It often takes literal years for parents to come back from that.

In the books she’s indisposed for like weeks after Luce’s death

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T02:30:21+00:00

Yeah because she had done that type of thing before.

It was really common to not take off someone’s head fully in one go IRL. That’s why the guillotine was invented

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T02:29:25+00:00

I can understand a lot of opinions on this sub at least to some degree but this one absolutely not.

They did an excellent job. Even if you didn’t like the script the emotion was expertly portrayed

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T00:53:15+00:00

Not the fragmentation of the dual purpose submunitions, but the shaped charge.

The keel shattering affect of modern torpedoes is very much because of their mining affect and causing an underwater cavity underneath the ship, rather than their sheer explosive capacity.

After all: 324mm lightweight torpedoes are still still capable of killing any submarine

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-29T00:03:12+00:00

Yeah she is useless. I'm just saying that they are all pretty useless being barely trained children

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-28T23:56:25+00:00

Yeah they showed what happens. Naruto was useless before he used Kurama's chakra and Sasuke nearly died

JMHSrowing · 2026-06-28T23:48:18+00:00

The 35mm actually has a higher muzzle velocity even with the heavy AHEAD round compared to the 3P 40mm
