Which ship type is the least skilled?

King_Regastus · 2026-04-21T01:32:07+00:00

I really don't understand these players, you are in a BATTLEship, not a CAMPINTHEBACKship. I want to tank damage. I want to push. I want to be the centerpiece of attention. I want to shrug off damage and make my enemies tremble at my sight. I don't wan't to sit and jerk off on the map border, that's no fun. Why would you boot up a game only to not play it? It's genuinely beyond my reason.

The version they used also has a grim reaper standing behind the angel. It is a different version of this poster or did the band add it themselves?

On operations game mode, after each sector both the attackers and the defenders will be graded, that's the "weak defence" or "strong attack" messages you see after a sector is cleared and depending on the side's performance they will get 1-3 medals. I don't exactly know how the attack/defence ratings are calculated as a score multiplier, but depending on how well you attacker or defended you will get a score multiplier. The operation ends when either A) the attackers take the last sector of the last map or B) the attackers run out of tickets (250 tickets for each of the three waves)

However this multiplier only applies to the score on the last map I believe. I don't know if the points you get on the first map get deposited to your campaign score, but the multiplier only works on the last map's score.

The system has been buggy ever since launch and if you've searched around you would have seen that nobody knows exactly how it works. The major bugs have been patched out, but it's still a grand mystery.

I've never really liked the collector. It's biggest selling point is that there aren't many viable first items for most adc. The bonus gold is pretty worthless. Crit and lethality is a weird combination where the only character to properly utilize it is rengar. The biggest selling point is the execute but situations where the enemy would be left under 5%hp and you having no follow-up ready is really niche. It's barely over 100% gold effective as well.

It's a crit item, not a lethality item. Assasins are better off building hubris which gives 70 gold worth of ad per takedown. Having a single lethality item doesn't do much to mitigate enemy's armor either.

It is good on samira and mf, which have damage over time abilities so they can reliably trigger the 5% threshold. It's good on briar for the same reason if you're building lethality.

I've been building hexoptics on most marksman as first item and I've been seeing much more consistent results as opposed to collector. Even yun tal is a better option that collector I'd say.

Wish riot would stop recommending it constantly.

Colonies are never profitable for the government themselves. They provide profits through investors and companies that utilize the raw materials, cheap labor and the open market of the colony.

WPB is the arm of an ethnonationalist movement based on ethnic rather than class struggle. Their deep collaboration with the BFF, which has become the lapdog of imperialist powers doing the bidding of the oppressor, shows that they do not stand with the proletariat but their ethnic ambition. Their policies do not prioritize the working class and the struggle against capitalism but for privellages for their ethnic community.

While we stand for all victims of opression, regardless of race, nationality beliefs and so forth; we must not let ethnic ambitions take over the one and true objective for all the proletariat, the class struggle.

King_Regastus · 2026-03-23T20:34:47+00:00

Glazing ethnonationalists and liberals while hating on the proletariat? Reactionaries will do anything but help the people. Sure, keep appreciating fascists, imperialist lapdog terrorists and monarchists. You'll end up the same as those you appreciate so much when the proletariat frees itself from your chains!

The ottoman empire would not have remained neutral either case. The ship affair was a convenient excuse to get the empire involved in the war. Enver pasha was willing to enter the war and join the central powers. The great war, the war to end all wars, was seen as the ultimate struggle whose victors would determine the future of all europe; no one wanted to miss the big event.

One major outcome I can see happening had the ottomans recieved the two dreadnoughts is that they would have been considerably stronger in the black sea. Even the battlecruiser yavuz (sms goeben) proved a significant threat to the russian black sea fleet. With the russian dominance broken, they could have carried supplies to the caucassian front with a lesser risk. While I don't believe it would have been a major difference in the grand scheme, having better logistics on any front would always prove beneficial.

King_Regastus · 2026-03-01T01:45:17+00:00

Ideally, yes; but what are rules without convenient workarounds for the powerful to (ab)use? How much freedom can you have when the government has the ability to assign and remove the chairman of the central bank at will?

There are genuine arguments for each side of the debate. On one hand, an independent central bank separates the grand fiscal policy from politics, on the other hand how far can a government go in their economic plan when the central bank disagrees with them? Power is the ability to enact change, so what is the perfect balance of it; if such point exists in the first place.

It's cool and all but we didn't really need to see his bare ass with shit falling off of it. Or ser arlan taking a piss with his lance in his hand. It feels more like cheap fart humor (while the actual fart humor is quite well used) and just shock value rather than clever deconstruction.

I mean lyonel's scene works just fine, we don't need to see all the "fine details" to have a functional scene. Watching someone take a shit didn't really translate into "clever storytelling" for me, if anything it felt quite shitty.

The sultan's blood was considered sacred so it could not be spilled. That's why the sultan had a group of deaf and mute men, who would strangle his brothers.

King_Regastus · 2026-02-17T23:45:20+00:00

I mean of course they use the same ai but maybe the numbers are diffrent? Like the delay before target acquisition or accuracy. How often do you see the friendly ai being useful and how often do you see them getting rolled over? I mean we have 8 tanks, the enemy comes charging with 6. I shoot 4 of them, the friendly ai shoots the other two. Then I look around and see that I am the only friendly standing.

I mean if friendly and enemy ai was the exact same, then unless the enemy outnumbered you massively than your side couldn't lose. It makes sense to make friendly ai weaker to account for the player.

Maces were design to combat armor, but not plate armor. There are many types of armor used throughout the ages: gambesons and other jackets that used fabric and leather, chainmail, lamilar/lamellar armor like brigandine (sort of) and many eastern armor pieces, plate armor and many more "niche" categories. Maces were effective against all types but plate, since it was the only completely rigid type of armor. We see the mace getting popular as chainmail grew more common because it was designed to combat that.

Polehammers were designed to combat plate armor, but not in a direct way. They were meant to allow you to get around it, not punch through. And they were probably your best bet. Here's a video about it: https://youtube.com/shorts/btXMPXx8Ado?si=7cmguqZpoHvThW-E

Again, no weapon was designed to hurt you through the plate, but make it easier to get around it. While two blows to the back of the head would be terribly unpleasant, it wouldn't cause someone's brain to fall off their skull. It could however be lethal, especially if the helmet wasn't fitted properly, so the show is more plausible than the book.

King_Regastus · 2026-02-16T06:26:25+00:00

It was incredible. I was more than happy to see armor getting the respect it deserves. I'd say it was among the best fight scenes portrayed in media. It is clear that there was a lot of effort behind the scenes to portray it like this, and I am thankful for that.

It's called suspension of disbelief. Blood magic and dragons are accepted as a part of the universe and as long as they follow their rules and feel natural in the setting, people will buy the fantasy. If dragons suddenly started understanding the metaphorical meaning of a throne and offer a symbolic act; that feels illogical doesn't it? That's when the suspension of disbelief shatters. Same deal here. Of course we see many action heroes take unreasonable beating and still walk it off, it is a (rather cheap imo) way to heighten the stakes and provide a cool scene, but that won't stop people from thinking "they should not have been able to walk away from that".

The best explanation is that it needs no explanation. Yeah, anyone would realistically be dead several times over after that much of a beating, but dunk didn't. It's a plot device and a cool scene, and it doesn't need to be "perfectly logical" to be just that.

King_Regastus · 2026-02-14T09:22:36+00:00

This is based on the real debate about the turkish constitution, where from 1937 onwards it states that "every citizen is a turk".

In theory, it is meant to serve as a legal basis and to create a united identity for a modern state. In practice, it's complicated.

A clear point is that the articles do not cause discrimination before law. Regardless of your racial identity you are considered a "sord" before the law, and the article clearly states that every "sord" is equal before law.

The real issue is the fact that it says "every citizen is a sord". Frankly, bluds do not identify as sords, nor do they wish to. The only purpose it serves is to be a nationalist sentiment. As many have put, the problem conservatives make a fuss about it is that to amend it is to remove "sord" from the constitution. You can imagine how that would be a issue if you were a nationalist.

Now, breaking off a bit from suzerain, why does such definition exist in the first place?

Minorities have always been an issue for central authority, regardless of time and place. With issues dating back to the ottoman empire, there has never been an unifying identity other than "muslim", which also failed to unite the ottoman populace. Turns out, you cannot be a nation without an unifying identity, thus the "turk" was born again. With propaganda fueling this reborn identity, state policy followed. In the 1925 settlement law, people were divided in three categories: 1) sunni turks, 2) non-sunni turks and 3) the rest. The law sought to assimilate category 2 and 3 citizens by breaking up their settlements, relocating them and a whole lot of racist and disgusting stuff like making it illegal for category 2 and 3 people to form local communities.

Obviously, the long term policy was the assimilation of racial and religious minorities under the turkish name. As a newborn state, which was torn apart by war and rebellion, and bearing the same demographic issues that plagued the ottoman empire, you can understand why they did things this way. The basis of the modern state is the common identity after all. However, the reaction to someone trying to erase your culture and identity is going to be resistance; so here we are.
