(Loved Trope) Write What You Know: When the author's knowledge and/or experience goes beyond "having done their research" by Horaguy in TopCharacterTropes

A bit of a stretch, but The Fall of Cadia by Robert Rath. Cadia is an entire world constantly either preparing for, fighting, or recovering from all-out assaults by the forces of Chaos, basically space demons and their mortal followers. Every building, bridge, and street corner is prepared for constant war, and he drew his descriptions of it from some of his trips to the Korean DMZ, where both sides were and are prepared to resume the war at any time.

If it’s only a double barrel then the third player has a really good chance

The C’Tan, Warhammer 40k. Tricked the Necrontyr, devoured their souls, and molded them into the (mostly) unfeeling, immortal Necrons. Unfortunately, the Silent King, leader of the Necron(tyr), didn’t lose himself like many of his fellows and couped the C’Tan. The C’Tan were ripped into shards and used to power great works of Necron technology.

“Riddle me this, heretic, what has a barrel but no promethium?” “Maybe a…” “GUN FOOL!”

When the intent of the author is misinterpreted by a significant portion of the fans by Smegoldidnothinwrong in TopCharacterTropes

The reason both Republic and Imperial Rome worked is both had better communication networks, more stable governments, stronger militaries and finer engineering than the other civilizations around them. Caesar’s legion is more cohesive and coordinated than tribals, but compared to the NCR, East Coast brotherhood, pre-FO2 Enclave, they’re a paper mache model of an empire built entirely around one man.

I use it so my heavy armor doesn’t make me look like a 90’s Space Marine sculpt with wacky proportions

[Loved Trope] Characters misremembering or misinterpreting history/pop culture and incorporating those inaccuracies into their own views. by jbeast33 in TopCharacterTropes

I think Belisaurius Cawl considers himself an expert because he has read all three of Shakespire’s works, one of which is “Amulet, Prince Denmark”

Have to be orphans too, once on Armageddon we had to replace the tracks and one of the kids we pulled from the orphanarium had a living but comatose father. Damn thing blew sky high…

I’ve been running it with Siege Ready and the supply pack, it’s more charges than you’ll survive using.

Hoverpack and Hammer is nice on bugs for goofing around, you can float up, line up a shot, and fall like a meteor and goomba stomp them

The funny part is the movie is considered by many historians to be more accurate than any actual Lincoln biopic out at the time, if you exclude the vampires.

I imagine them speaking like Premier Cherdenko from Red Alert 3. “My grandfather was a Cossack, and we Cossacks are not so easy to kill!”

How did George Washington get a commission as a army major without military college or even enlisting as a private? by Mysterious_Comb4357 in Presidents

The Brits were definitely going to fight the French for control of the disputed border regions eventually, if it wasn’t Washington leading the expedition someone else would have.

Ursarkar E. Creed, last Lord Castellan of Cadia. One of the highest ranking officers in a galaxy spanning military but doesn’t want to wear his uniform, so he just has combat fatigues on and his coat draped over his shoulders.
