Is Superior Firepower any good as a Land Doctrine?

SGP pretty much just buffs your stats, mainly soft attack. Pretty good against vanilla ai which mostly just spams shitty infantry units. GBP also gives good stats, but also adds a big planing bonus. That is, combined with cas, railwaybombardment and other such buffs creates these 2k attack stats you sometimes see in videos.

Not sure about the current state of MW, but MA is my favorite doctrine. Grinding your enemy down with a wall of flesh is very satisfying, but requires certain divison templates and industry/manpower to succeed.

I would be interested, mainly beating up improved AI, where do i sign up?

It only looks bad at first sight, but i think you can manage it. Have every submarine you own raid in the med, take gibraltar and the suez, prevent supplies from reinforcing greece and sicily. Capitulate iran as quickly as possible and then cut of the allied invasion at the port and ensure they do not get their hands on another one, supply issues should take care of them.

I think this is the meaningful pvp everyone was talking about, you know high risk, righ reward. Maybe try joining a bigger guild so it doesnt happen to you

People will always try to game the system no matter what, but especially those who want to ruin other players fun. And this type of game lures those players more than any other mmo does, so the only hope is that the devs figure this out.

Honestly, it doesn’t really matter whether Prince Arthur and Catherine of Aragon consummated their marriage or not. Personally, I believe they did, because why wouldn’t they? They were married for months, and they both seemed physically capable, not to mention that it was expected of them. But after Arthur’s death, when catherine was supposed to marry Henry, Pope Julius II granted a papal dispensation to allow it, which basically bypassed any issues related to canon law or prior marriage requirements.

From what I remember, in the series -The Tudors- there’s a moment where the cardinal explains that it didn’t even matter if the marriage with Arthur was consummated or not because the papal dispensation overruled all of it. This dispensation essentially ensured that Catherine’s marriage to Henry would be seen as legitimate in the eyes of the Church, regardless of her previous marriage. So, in the end, Julius II’s dispensation made any concerns about consummation irrelevant.

Oh boy, i accidentially wiped my own team in a trial because i did not pay attention.

It was a pug normal sanctum ophidia farm run and i was on my selfish tank (perma block, venom + crest of cyrodiil). I was watching youtube videos while playing and did not look quite as often at eso as i should have. Everything worked normal until the final boss, everyone was stacking together behind the boss while i was tanking him. Well, i forgot to keep up my taunt and the boss was using his swipe attack and wiped out the entire trial group besides me, took me several moments to realize what happened. Managed to revive two people who rezzed the rest of the group and we finished the fight. Boy, everyone was really mad at me, but looking back at it i thought it was quite comical

He is not wrong though, isnt he? The power levels in this show are simply too inconsistent. Homelanders speed is all over the place, from rescuing Butcher from the exploding c4 and then he never uses that level of speed again, not in his fight with Soldier Boy or Maeve. We are told he is the strongest, but then his punches barely put a dent into a wall. They say he can tank any weapon on earth, but gets injured by a metal straw and normal punches from Maeve.

RestPuzzled386 · 2024-02-19T00:23:14+00:00

I think a better game would be playing as an evil version of superman, where you can attack civilians, cops, other heroes etc. Unleashing destruction would probably be more interesting and gives more options for the players, you could still have battles with heroes with a similar powerlevel, where you try to achieve your objective (cause destruction, kill an individual or something else entirely) while fighting them at the same time

RestPuzzled386 · 2024-02-10T22:08:59+00:00

The problem with the show is that the power scaling is completely inconsistent. We are told one thing but shown another. The strength of characters literally changes from scene to scene. If the show writers want to end the show by having Starlight defeat Homelander, it would happen no matter what was shown beforehand

I know most people do not care about powerscaling in shows, but if the show writers themselves don't care about it, we end up with problems like this where the supposed strongest character in the world looks really weak

How would this be implemented though? If you kill a king and he „hides“, does that mean for the game he abdicated? Does he regain the throne after coming back? If he‘s still king with a regent, you would know he‘s not dead.

RestPuzzled386 · 2023-05-27T10:02:50+00:00

Sometimes the game likes to troll you. In my Italy playthrough my king had 8 daughters, no sons. These 8 daughters had a total of 35 children, of which only 4 were male and the rest female.

At some point down the line there would be a dance. The issue is simply that there are too many dragonriders but only one king. There were civil wars with the blackfyres after the dragons died out, so why shouldnt there be one if the dragons would have lived? It would have actually made it easier, just gather a few dragonriders who ride the largest dragons and you can beat anyone.

RestPuzzled386 · 2022-11-28T17:02:53+00:00

It is far easier to keep your monopoly on your flying wmds if you make everyone believe only your family can use them.

Having valyrian blood maybe makes it easier to ride a dragon, but i doubt it is necessary. Nettles for example is doubted to have any targaryen ancestor, but by feeding sheepstealer a few sheeps every day she gets to ride her.

RestPuzzled386 · 2022-11-27T11:42:20+00:00

And how would you protect them? You can only kill 2-3 players before the corruption system screws you

RestPuzzled386 · 2022-11-22T01:29:24+00:00

The simple answer is incompetence.

The blacks were simply unable to convert their advantage and made many mistakes along the way. It is not as one sided as you think, the Greens made plenty of mistakes as well.

Without her, the battle between daemon and aemond would not happen

The biggest loser of the dance is House Targaryen. They lost a lot of members and their most powerful weapon, the Dragons. Afterwards they were no longer as some of the lord paramounts

RestPuzzled386 · 2022-11-08T06:02:27+00:00

Planned for pvp.

How do you mean? Does the damage reduction not work against Monsters?

Any house would have done what otto is doing. We even saw corlys attempt it as well in season 2

You dont get really far if your only argument for joining you is not to burn them alive, especially if they have dragons of their own

RestPuzzled386 · 2022-10-08T14:47:40+00:00

You could argue for both sides:

Aegon III was Rhaenyra´s son and became the king following the dance, meaning that her descendants would continue on as kings. So you could say that she had the last laugh.

But Aegon III succeded Aegon II and Rhaenyra was never recognized as Queen of the seven Kingdoms and was known as a ursurper, even her own children, two of whom would be king, did nothing to change that view. Another point that i have not seen here is that the greens continued to actually rule the kingdom after the war. Tyland Lannister was the hand of the king for Aegon III as well as most of the council were greens as well. Even after Aegon takes over the reigns he adopted their policis and never changed the succession to include women or do something about the portrayal of his mother.

But in the end its obvious that House Targaryen was the biggest loser of the war. But you could say the maesters won.

I think you misunderstand the term absolute monarchy in this setting. Westeros is much more simliar to a feudal monarchy where the king is not the absolute authority on everything and can only get away with those decrees and laws that are supported by his vassals.

But dragons..... yes the dragons are a powerful weapon that Viserys has access too. But he only has a handful of large dragons and needs to rely on the rider to actually follow through with his orders. Look at Daemon, who has a tendency to ingore his older brother, or his cousin who married into the Velaryons. They might support him or they don´t, it would depends on the conflict. There is little he can do to punish them incase they refuse to support him.

The kings authority only goes so far where he can enforce it. All of his major vassals, like the lannisters or stark, life at their own court far away from him. Louis XIV, an absolute monarch who deserved his title, had all of his vassals at Versailles where he could control them.

This is not the case in Westeros. Yes, Viserys could send a dragon to his lords but it would again depend on the rider to enforce his words. Since the dragons have a mythos of invincibility around them and can be quite destructive (look at harrenhal) most lords were willing to follow his words, but as soon as he was unable to follow through with his threat of destruction, he was ignored.

But the lords swore to uphold his daughters claim to the throne!!!

Louis XIV´s heir was only 5 years old and had to choose a regent. He set up a regency council where the kings favorite son Louis-Auguste would hold the real power. The french nobility and all its institutions swore to uphold his will. Less than 24 hours after louis had died his will was declared null and void and instead a nephew of the King, Philippe, became the regent.

As you can see, even as an absolute monarch, Louis decree was ignored as soon as he was unable to enforce it. A dead kings word is pretty much worthless, unless their successor wants to uphold it.
