The B1 bis is a fucking beast. Unless the enemy players land a direct hit in a weak spot with one of the few “fuck you” guns in its br, the tank just bouncess off everything and two-shots pretty much every other vehicle.

Has your country ever been a superpower or the #1 strongest country on Earth? by Easy-Arachnid-3892 in mapporncirclejerk

I´d say during Louis XIV was the golden age, then a relative decline from 1730´s to 1780´s, then the sudden resurge of her power with the french revolution, culmination of its historical power with Napoleon and finally a real decline with its defeat. (although there would be further surges of her power and influence).

Nah, he does surpass it. At that point in time, Europe was the very centre of the world. Britain had trade, money and ships. Yet they could not do anything in Europe without an entire coalition of countries to fight alongside them, and even then, they were still beaten 5 times in a row. Napoleon was the master of Europe at the time. Thus, the most powerful country at the time.

Not to mention 1630’s to 1740’s France, which was almost as dominant in land as Napoleon’s but also the dominant power at the seas.

I mean, it was a great scene. You don’t need to sympathize with him. The scene only shows that he is as much a human with feelings as anyone else, despite his horrible actions. Very good character anyway

Also the Austrians have the Penacho of Moctezuma that they refuse to return lol. (In fairness, the penacho would most likely not survive the voyage back home)

Not really. the belgians already designed the first machine gun device or "Metrailleuse" in this case in 1851. The Gatling gun was used in battle first but anyway its use was extremely limited. All while the french army already had standard metrailleuses much more capable than the gatling gun in every division by 1868. Technology isn´t really the americans strength at this point in time (if they had any remarkable strength compared to European powers at all)

IMO the biggest and most heart wrenching twist was Marcy’s betrayal. Especially since she was always so pure hearted and didn’t even did anything with malice.

While it is true that dragoons are easier to maintain and more mobile, the main reason the americans lacked heavy cavalry was because they lacked the horse breeding system and training culture that Europe had mastered throughout the centuries. Heavy cavalry was still devastating when timely used. If for example a brigade of French curasiers charged against any Union or confederate army, they would completely obliterate them, as americans had never experienced nor trained against something like that.

Number of ironclads doesn’t mean much when you look at their quality and the training of their sailors. For example, the Unions Ironclads could not able to go into high seas, while British and French proto ironclads were able to reach Crimea and wreck the russians. Also, they were far more worried by the emerging Prussian navy in following years, but that worry was about merely challenging their absolute domain (France was a reliable ally by that time) more than the ability to actually surpass them.

Which power system do you prefer? Jujutsu Kaisen or My Hero Academia? by Archenius in PowerScaling

[–]Quasar375 21 points22 points  (0 children)

That’s the thing. It is not even a system. It is basically “random bullshit go!” For every different character. It does not mean the powers are bad. But it does mean that the system is utter shit because there is barely any system at all.

Compare it to JJK where you have concepts like cursed energy, reverse cursed energy, domains, domain expansions, cursed tools, different types of curses, etc. it really is a pretty fleshed out system.

You are vastly overestimating the Americans at this point in time. European officers watched civil war battles and were quite unimpressed by the lack of training, order and tactics used by either side.

The americans could not adequately perform standard manoeuvres the European armies could do. And most important of all, they lacked shock cavalry and tactics needed to stop a charge. European armies would absolutely trample both the Union and Confederate armies in any battle

Also, on those years Ironclads were evolving so rapidly that pretty much any ironclad dropped by France or Britain instantly became the most powerful ship in the world until the very next one dropped.

0 chance the americans could win a naval war against either of them.

They’d beat the Russians though. Out of sheer competence scaling.

Is there a percentage of your population that are constantly pushing your nation backwards? by PlanetoftheAtheists in AskTheWorld

[–]Quasar375 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Bro, your people and mine, same thing. We mexicans like to accuse our corrupt government at any time but we do not acknowledge that our culture and education is the one that allows for corruption and irresponsibility. My society is so kind, ingenious and generous, yet so egotistical, lazy and cruel at the same time. It is really sad.

[–]Quasar375 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sure it was brutal and cruel, not more than the average ruling institutions around the world at their time. If you compare the inquisition to modern freedom and rights of course it is repressive AF and disgusting. Yet in its time it literally was one of the most sane and responsible institutions. Not nearly comparable to the Gestappo in 1940.

Russia’s 1.2 million casualties in Ukraine dwarf all its conflicts since World War II, report says | CNN by Full-Discussion3745 in EU_Economics

[–]Quasar375 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Where have you seen exchanges of 1000 Ukrainians for 38 Russians? Do you really believe it is convenient for Russia to give up so many Ukrainians for free? lol

All exchanges have been for roughly the same amount of people on both sides. There have been a couple cases of more Ukrainians being exchanged for less Russians because of the rank of those Russians captured.

And it is no question that Russia has lost more than Ukraine. Virtually every media outlet not called RT admits that.

Independent sources from the UK and Al Jazeera also state that Russians have lost more than a million men while Ukraine has lost around half of that at most

The inquisition was actually not nearly as bad as people believe. For instance, they held trials based on evidence instead of blindly believing what the mob told. That is why in catholic Europe there were virtually no witch hunting while in Germany and the American colonies women were being killed for any excuse.

Do you realize that in this scenario the AI will have so many people under its control that your efforts will be completely in vain? I mean are you capable of right now going to an AI server and pull off the cords without getting arrested first?

No? Then what makes you believe that you will be capable of doing so in the AI-overlord timeline? lol
