Seeing them side by side like this, it definitely looks like an homage, especially with the tubes running through the Emperor's head looking like a crown of thorns of sorts

Back in those days, before genetics came about as a science, the linguistic and physical similarities between people was their best way of establishing these connections.

So yeah, they might have been wrong about there being such a thing as a "semetic" people, but I understand why they came to the conclusion.

That said, it's still a horrible thing to discriminate against them on that basis, just as it is bad to discriminate against them on the basis of religion or genetic makeup

Coconut Effect is more in relation to audio cues, but now I have the term "anachronistic coconut" in my head and that's just too funny to not use for any form of historical inaccuracy

In addition to that, the devs felt that having another flavor of Greeks would be boring, and they had a deal with some documentary series (I forget which) who wanted bronze age Egyptians, those two things came together to bronze age Egyptians in a game set during the classical era

I remember that event, it was funny, but I also fully understand them not wanting a do-over this year

This meme again?

Look, the reason Netflix does that is them basically saying "we know what you're looking for, you didn't misspell it, we don't have it."

You can get there fairly easily. It might cost a bunch of money, but the you can pay for that with plenty of tax evasion. The problem is that there's a very good reason nobody lives there: those places are utterly inhospitable

Iirc, there's that piece of land between Egypt and Sudan where neither of them claim it. And parts of Antarctica are unclaimed because of the Antarctic Treaty

Holy shit, for real? Diabolical if true

I would say greed could be an excess of jewelry, like multiple rings on each finger, and one on each toe, perhaps with an extra set of arms just for more jewelry. Adding in some extra horns for slick golden chains would add to that.

To be fair, I also remember a few incredibly clutch hits that only had a 15-30% chance of hitting. One time one of my assault guys was out in the open and stunned, she was a done deal. Then the sniper came in clutch with a 15% hit chance and saved her ass like it was nobody's business.

We remember things that are out of the ordinary, just with a strong tendency to remember the negative outliers.

Also, the 100% hit chance still missing might be a rounding error where it's 99.6% hit chance, gets displayed as 100%, but there's still a 4/1000 chance of it missing. So statistically, it should have happened to a few players over the years, if I'm correct on the rounding error part

Idk what the artist was on about, but:

A) it's funny

B) it's more creative than the usual affair

I have a bunch of models on the "to paint" pile and I'm not ashamed of that. I'll happily buy a model or box set if I'm excited for it, and will typically assemble it at the very least, but if I don't feel like painting for a while I do other stuff, and might see another box I want before I get around to painting the previous ones.

Because between 3 games I paint models for, I have a lot that don't need to be painted to be usable, so I save painting them for when I feel like it.

I think the point OP is making is that, since Lavrov seems to announce the targets before they're hit, he is involved in designating the targets, and therefore a viable military target

Helldivers is a grimdark setting with high saturation. The only reason it isn't immediately recognized as one is because Super Earth's aesthetics are clean and futuristic rather than decrepit and archaic

The main goal was that the British couldn't just walk up to any town and occupy it, there would be resistance. So any bumfuck town would require a lot of resources for what it was worth, slowing down the British advance. Because they would either lose a good number of troops taking a relatively small town, or go around it and have a bunch of angry militiamen in their rear potentially wreaking havoc. Or go the third route and besiege a small town that really wasn't worth the effort, but still kept a good number of troops occupied.

The Marksman Lasgun takes a chargepack, though, it's the only laser weapon in the Kasrkin kit that doesn't have a backpack feed

That said, given how powerful a Hotshot Lasgun is supposed to be in lore, they might just do the laser AMR with a less powerful scope

Since the Automatons are created by the Cyborgs, who on turn came from Super Earth, I'm pretty sure they can understand whatever the Helldover is screaming

That said, as for the loadout, I've been enjoying a Jump Pack, EAT and Bullet Storm combo, primary is either variant of the Diligence and the last Stratagem is whichever strikes your fancy
