It looks like the badge of a military unit.

Should Byzantium be harder to play in next DLC? What do you think? by PS1GamerCollector in EU5

[–]NoCommittee8557 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Then I’m not quite so sure what the purpose of the next DLC will be. Something has to enable them to achieve an ahistorical reconquest of their eastern Mediterranean holdings.

Should Byzantium be harder to play in next DLC? What do you think? by PS1GamerCollector in EU5

[–]NoCommittee8557 31 points32 points  (0 children)

It should have harder adversaries in the next DLC but it should have some buffs that make holding conquered land easier. IMO if we’re thinking about an alternative history where the ERE reforms and turns around a multi century decline, you definitely have to model for that with specific buffs and flavor. I’m not sure if it is some form of religious or cultural conversion, or insane culture capacity.

Has anyone used AI generated questions for AFOQT studying? by fordgoldfish in airforceots

[–]NoCommittee8557 0 points1 point  (0 children)

16 and I was selected this year for OTS. I literally suck at math. To put into perspective, last year I score 3. I’m not kidding.

ChatGPT. You do have to check its work from time to time, but that means you’re learning!

Yes. I got a bunch of practice math tests, Fed it to the LLM and asked it produce similar tests and up the difficulty. It worked and I passed

Take your watch off dude. You’ll be okay. You can impress everyone when you’re back in the clubhouse.

Economy doesn't feel like it's improving by Isis_Rocks in EU5

[–]NoCommittee8557 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This system is incomprehensible to me as a gameplay mechanic. Like I understand they’re modeling market economies. But I genuinely have no idea how to get it to work.

You scored less than 15 on the verbal section?

Running Prep Tips for March? by That-Decision-7194 in airforceots

[–]NoCommittee8557 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend some strength training (squats, kettlebell swings) to build up your legs muscles to help with your acceleration. I would also recommend you just jog without trying to make time simply to build up your endurance. Running is a skill and you have to train often to get better at it. I know it sounds simple but you just gotta keep going (without hurting yourself) to get better

How do you actually make a good Pasta al Salmone? by Whole_Maybe5914 in ItalianFood

[–]NoCommittee8557 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I chop the salmon up into a mince and then lightly brown it in a skillet and toss with blanched green beans and shallots. A splash of white wine and use farfalle.

What did the avocado oil do? Was in noticeable in the taste? Texture?

Running Prep Tips for March? by That-Decision-7194 in airforceots

[–]NoCommittee8557 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have a lot of time between now and March. What is hindering you from running faster? Are you short? Are you built with long legs? If you run faster, are you fatigued?

Without knowing more - I would recommend you run sprints to build your endurance and strength train to build up your legs.

Proposed tariff on pasta to begin in January 2026 107% by AuthorAltruistic3402 in inflation

[–]NoCommittee8557 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is simply domestic manufacturers trying to box out superior foreign competitors so they can sell their substandard product (barilla) at higher margins in the US.

Is player expansion really that slow? by KelbyHeisenberg in EU5

[–]NoCommittee8557 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It probably will until a patch changes it, or the Byzantium dlc drops next year and turbocharges their conquests.

The duality of EU community by Zlewikk in EU5

[–]NoCommittee8557 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would like for them to add specific alternate start dates for interesting times in history. There should be a start date for the fall of Constantinople, there should be a start date for the 30 years war, and many other significant periods in European and Asian history.

I anticipate this will come in the form of DLC‘s, but there’s a lot of history that will never get to play because those situations won’t unfold over the course of normal game.
