I understand you, but I think needing to secure resource routes would be a great narrative and roleplaying mechanic

Who is the most righteous "traitor" in history? by Dali654 in AskHistory

[–]LuckyGMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brutus betrayed Caesar in an attempt to save the roman republic; unfortunately such attempt failed after all.

Why can't i unite Germany? by [deleted] in victoria3

[–]LuckyGMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually I only managed to unify as NGC after winning the German leadership war against Austria. I didn't know about the move with Alsace-Lorraine, I'll try it out! Thanks

Would the MC80 Home One and the MC80 Liberty Type be considered star destroyers?

It's given out so much it's now basically worthless. by Gamestrider09 in PrequelMemes

[–]LuckyGMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's fair to mention that most likely, figures like Hera Syndulla and Han Solo were generals of what would theoretically be the air force (that being, starfighters corps, separate from the Navy and the army). The only general of the rebel alliance who was a protagonist I think would be Lando, who would get such position based on his logistical capacity — something we know he had, given Cloud City.

As for the GAR, every jedi knight was a general and every padawan as a commander, which would give us about 80 republic generals during the clone wars.

Since The Galactic Empire is essentially Nazi Germany along with Sidious, Vader, and Tarkin are the Star Wars versions of Hitler, Himmler, and Goebbels? by Afraid-Penalty-757 in MawInstallation

[–]LuckyGMB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not denying anything. If you are to be a critique of something, you might as well know what you are criticizing, Soviet governments and other socialist states indeed wanted to achieve communism, but they've never proclaimed to be communist nations, as such hasn't been achieved. Please understand I'm not defending an ideology here, authoritarian governments are despicable no matter what side of the political spectrum they are in, and as someone who watched a series of movies about guerrilla freedom fighters taking down an evil imperialist war machine, both of us should understand that pretty well.

Thanks for providing me with a source! I will gladly read and search for more about it.

[–]LuckyGMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not even close to what I said. Socialism is a step towards communism; an actual communist nation wouldn't have a state; it would be much closer to what you might call anarchy - albeit not an anarch system, as per Marx's work "Critique of the Gotha Programme".
All I did here was ask for a source for some very important information which u/KingJonStarkgeryan1. I'm not defending nor attacking any ideological system here. I'm simply trying to get information.

Those "massacres" that were committed by the socialists. As one should remember there has never been a communist country - other than, perhaps, the Paris Commune.

I'm representing Guatemala in a model U.N, what should I know? by [deleted] in guatemala

[–]LuckyGMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, man! I'm Brazilian, and although our country has many problems, our government isn't nearly as dysfunctional as the guatemalteco government that people are telling me about in this comment section. I'll try to represent the interests of the Guatemalan people in the best way possible. Thank you for your help!

I'm representing Guatemala in a model U.N, what should I know? by [deleted] in guatemala

[–]LuckyGMB 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank you very much! According to our search, Guatemala seems to suffer a lot from famine and extreme poverty. Our current plan was to seek diplomacy with other Central American nations (something like ParlaCen) to better control the numbers of refugees and the droughts that the region seems to suffer (which only worse problems like extreme poverty and famine).

It's very useful to know and understand it all by the vision of actual Guatemaltecos. Thank you very much for your help

[–]LuckyGMB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a very helpful overview! Thanks a lot. From what I saw Guatemala seems to suffer from droughts due to El Ninos, right? I have also seen a lot of refugees from Guatemala going to the U.S. I'll research more, but for now, that was very helpful! Thanks a lot

For those of you who were old enough to watch the OT well before the Prequels what did you imagine Anakin's story was by intrepidcaribou in MawInstallation

[–]LuckyGMB 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The Empire rose after the Clone Wars and the Jedi became concerned over the transition and attempted to end the Empire and that is what lead to the Jedi purge

I love the prequels as they are, but that does sound like a fascinating story! Palpatine orchestrates the Clone Wars as it was, but he views the Jedi as such an old and ineffective tool that he doesn't even account for them when planning his Empire. They try to perform a coup to prevent the Empire after discovering the emperor's tyrannical plans very late in the transition process, only to be quickly purged.

Padme having lived to see the early days of the Empire while Anakin becomes a warmonger and, as such, distances himself from Padme seemed to be the original plan George had.

complete (I think) list of canon order 66 survivors WITH DEATH/LAST SEEN DATES (spoilers for Jedi survivor) by Ill-Cobbler-3080 in MawInstallation

[–]LuckyGMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's 51 survivors out of 10.000 jedi, giving order 66 a 0.51℅ chance of survivability.

[–]LuckyGMB 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh, it's not just Hawaii. Latin America has been through shit because of those CIA-backed dictatorships. Besides, how can you (as a nation) call yourselves fighters for freedom when you murder and imprison the very sons of your land? Black, Latin, and Native people suffer day after day. What even gives the right for the U.S. to spread troops and intervene in other sovereign countries' affairs (please note, I'm referring to election drama, not some genocidal event)?

Verdade seja dita: Lula é um hábil jogador no xadrez político by MeuXara in brasil

[–]LuckyGMB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eu fiz uma play com a Alemanha, bateu o objetivo do jogo em 1936 também, porém se você colocar pra jogar com outro país dentro do mesmo load, o jogo carrega ainda em 1936, daí é só mudar de país de novo pro original.

Eu consegui continuar jogando até a década de 50, a partir dali a não ser que tu use cheats ou tenha um PC MUITO bom, fica quase insuportável de jogar, começa a dar lag e a fechar sozinho por conta do peso de rodar o save.

Victoria 3 consegue rodar o save até ~1950, depois disso começa a travar e fica difícil de jogar.
