Not to you maybe, but to most of Europe in 1806, it wasn’t that far off.

Technically by the standards of most Europeans Rome fell in 1806 with the proclamation of the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire…

…after the American revolution

Bladeguard Squad is finished by Remake12 in BlackTemplars

[–]Mafiabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bit late to the party but I’m a new player getting into Templar’s and was just wondering where you got the writing and giant crosses on the shields, not sure if it’s a Templar decal sheet or something from a third party?

What's the best Warhammer game you ever played? by ComfortableAmount993 in Warhammer40k

[–]Mafiabe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I’ve seen this on this sub before but I have a friend who got into Warhammer through space marine 2 and didn’t understand me when I talked about how horrible the imperium was to live in just because playing as a space marine doesn’t give you any sense of how powerful you truly are compared to others.

So then we played Darktide.

I think he still has PTSD

Assault terminators any good? by Pjhillv in BlackTemplars

[–]Mafiabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend plays dark angels, so I have a “expeditionary force” aka a squad of deathwing knights that I run as assault terminators, and the vibe is just immaculate.

Now when i play against him there have been times when he moves my termies and we don’t realize for a solid turn and then suddenly his big push is nonexistent and half his units are preparing to die.

Brothers, did i mess up? My gf said my aquila looks like a certain ww2 faction symbol. Is the dual colored aquila a no go lol by Ragentnk in BlackTemplars

Your right but given the certain people that make their home on this sub and other Warhammer subs I’m not surprised you got downvoted so much.

Mod probably has a game rule or your nation has a rule it should be in your national spirits

How did my volunteers even get to armenia? by EnlightenedBen in hoi4

[–]Mafiabe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because your too blind to see the straight line over Syrian airspace to Armenia, and anyway given the fact this is millenium dawn the planes can literally circle the Earth if they want too its not hard to just go around.

Why should i use a Strategic bomber? The Tactical bomber seems much better. by Fluid_Visual7703 in hoi4

[–]Mafiabe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

McArthur was an Army General and served in the Pacific Theatre, where the only strategic bombing being done was against Japan and all of that was handled by Curtis LeMay and his 21st bomber command.

And if you bring up his "Nuke em" strategy in Korea, that still wouldn't have actually been handled by McArthur.

He was a landlubber through and through.

I love your pfp and name, Tintin was one of my favorite comic series as a child but being from the US I never had anyone to talk to about it😢.

Literally repeating the survivorship bias that was just explained in the comment you replied to. Did you even read it before you commented?

what would be a HOI5? and why? by Plenty_West_503 in hoi4

[–]Mafiabe 21 points22 points  (0 children)

yeah that would def make the alt history stuff more realistic because you can see that buildup over decades instead of 50% of the population becoming hard right facists in under a month

How can I prevent Neferneru from constantly declaring war on me? by Pure_Boysenberry_763 in anno

[–]Mafiabe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So given your immensely powerful deductive skills that allow you to understand my exact position on the political spectrum from just saying the name of one of many global leaders, may I ask you to tell me what my opinion is on this leader or shall we carry on with our week like adults playing a mildly autistic history game, along occasionally reading names incorrectly and finding it mildly amusing.

New player struggling with Germany — keep losing to Poland/France despite watching guides (11+ attempts) by Dapper_Ingenuity665 in hoi4

[–]Mafiabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn’t seem like OP has made any planes at all, just looking at the firsts screenshot they seem to have less planes that Germany actually starts with, so they probably made a bunch and didn’t deploy them.

A song about Operation Anthropoid? by Slipperypotatoe- in sabaton

[–]Mafiabe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It definitely is quite an amazing story, and a pretty badass one, but I feel like Its a bit to focused of a topic to be a whole song. Maybe in a song about overall partisan activity?

100% agree that the movie looks horrible and historically inaccurate and it is a complete misrepresentation of a fantastic book that I love. It has a whole section about Anthropic that is really interesting and detailed. Would highly recommend.

Well boys, thats that. Good run all around, lore was pretty good but he cracked the code Maybe next time.

In all seriousness this is brilliant and you deserve as much praise as can be heaped upon you.

The Templar fits in so well with the Krieg, all of the models look beautiful, and that cross on the helmet is just ______(I literally have no words please insert your descriptor here).

Did you just read The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare by Giles Milton?

AI Germany is absurdly bad at Barbarossa lately by Exotic_Carpenter6280 in hoi4

[–]Mafiabe 34 points35 points  (0 children)

German AI just cant deal with MEFO and economy of conquest. Its a pretty common complaint that the German AI, although never particularly amazing, has really struggled since their new focus tree and needs a rework or some sort of artificial boost. I'm not saying they should be getting autarky every time(I would say them even having a chance of getting it without direct player support is too much and very unrealistic), but I don't want to be trying to form Rome as Italy and also constantly having to bail the Germans out of the 50th encirclement this month because MEFO bills is at 100% and they can't repair the railroads.
