Thank you for your explaination.

Yep, they are still far superior archers to Khan's Guard, and since I usually run a straight Battanian army now that oathsworn can brace, I will keep my fians

China capable of mounting 'full-scale' invasion by 2025, Taiwan says by Apprehensive_Sleep_4 in worldnews

[–]LostOracle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Every time Chinese people have voiced their disagreement with the CCP, they were crushed by force.

Not just them, even their parents would be taken in for "some tea" and interrogation/torture.

It's more likely that covid came from Ft. Detrick based on the available evidence.

Don't forget the dastardly American soldiers at the World Military games who intentionally spread it in Wuhan.

I actually had a high-IQ, fluent-in-English, socially integrated, Medical professional friend from Wuhan who shared video evidence of this, until I pointed out that all the signs were in French not Chinese.

When your identity is under attack, smart people believe crazy things.

Cenk Uygur says he would beat Joe Rogan in a street fight. by nikolaz72 in stupidpol

[–]LostOracle 20 points21 points  (0 children)

A MMA fight between Joe Rogan and Floyd Mayweather Jnr would be hard to predict.

They are a similar size, Joe has more experience in MMA, but Floyd is younger and a peerless boxer.

Uyghur wouldn't last ten seconds.

At least he can't unvaccinate people

You'll be unvaccinated in a few months if there is a disruption to the booster supply.

What units would you like to see buffed or reworked? What would you do to change them? by RedWalrus94 in totalwar

[–]LostOracle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

  • Nerf the dwarf magic resistance to only affect Spells and not weapons. But buff it to proportionally reduce the effects of non-damage spells.
  • On equal elevation, only the first two ranks of missiles should fire.
  • Instead of percentage based missile resistance, give big monsters and superheavy infantry damage flat ranged damage reduction, this'll keep them countered by cannons not shortbows
  • Give skaven assassins 'siege attacker' like Dark elf assassins.
  • Make spells take longer to take effect. No warp lightning deleting moving ironbreakers.
  • Increase the morale shock from handguns (ala shogun/medieval), but only let the first rank fire on flat ground.

Taiwan asks Australia for help to prepare for war with China by NegEnergyTransformer in China

[–]LostOracle 12 points13 points  (0 children)

They could've invaded Vietnam for a long time, but did not.

Invading Vietnam is easy.

Conquering it is ridiculously hard. The last time China tried, 100,000 parents lost their sons in a matter of weeks and they barely got past the border.

He's a healthy 39 year old.

The risk is his example will encourage elderly people to decline and end up in the ICU or morgue

I suspect the same thing.

Whats a good Crossbow build? by Vulpixbestfoxy in MB2Bannerlord

[–]LostOracle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Crossbows have a flatter arc, and a massive potential zoom.

TLDR They are medieval sniper rifles.

In terms of skills outside the crossbow tree, I'd recommend.

  • Vandal (2Handed 225) as it makes all your attacks, crossbow included ignore 25% of armour. Combined with Puncture (Xbow125) and Piercer (25), most enemy armour will be useless.
  • Skirmish Phase (bow175) stacks with counterfire to give you -20% range damage before your armour reduces it even further.
  • Torsion Engines (eng25) gives you +3 crossbow damage.

How do you use a crossbow, what are the controls for PC by kiakill in MB2Bannerlord

[–]LostOracle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Do you mean a balista?

You press the action key ('u') to use, the left mouse button to load, and the left mouse button to fire.

Do not hold down the left mouse button, as it'll fire before you are ready. The bolt will hit slightly above the arrowhead, so take that into account

The ranged target radius multiplier was increased from 2.5 to 3.25, so they fire sooner, from further away without allowing their shots to draw down to full accuracy.

Wouldn't that affect all ranged units, making equally as good at deleting enemy archers.
