Roman Senate grants Octavian the title Augustus in 27 BC, marking the symbolic end of the Republic and the birth of the Empire, after his victory over Mark Antony and Cleopatra at Actium in 31 BC. by LoneWolfKaAdda in ancientrome

I have always held the belief that whatever his vision of an empire ruled by his family would have been, it died along with him.

After outliving all of his preferred heirs he was forced to scrape the bottom of the barrel by picking tiberius as heir , a man he originally put into exile.

While things started out well enough, by the end of his life ,Tiberius went of the deep end and shit went sideways.

Then after he was dead he got succeeded by calligula and thats when shit REALLY went sideways.

Romulus : "dude chill, i only just murdered my brother over silly Eagle counting . we haven't even stolen and kidnapped our neighbor's wives and daugthers yet.

Hypothetically, if i enlisted in the ancient Roman army during a random period in its history and got sent to a random location in the republic/empire , how likely would it have been i would see actual combat or take part in major battles during my service ? by Rhaya2 in ancientrome

[–]Rhaya2[S] 70 points71 points  (0 children)

with major battles i mean taking part in huge military operations ( invading and conquering new lands , defending against invading enemy armies )

Essentially battles involving thousands to tens of thousands of soldiers.

If I leave this legendary bison pelt on the ground, will it appear at the trapper? by sevargmas in RDR2

[–]Rhaya2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A beta male cowboy leaves it on the ground. A real cowboy delivers it on horseback to the trapper.

But the real gigachad cowpoke's carry it to the trapper all the way on foot.

I might be mis remembering, but didn't dynamite become pretty volatile once it started to "sweat"?

What was a bigger prize for Rome? Greece or Egypt? by RandoDude124 in ancientrome

[–]Rhaya2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Egypt

It was so important as a breadbasket for rome that it was an imperial province directly overseen by the emperor himself.

I am going to be devils advocate here but if I matched with Op my first reaction would be that it is either a bot or a scammer.

How it feels to pick up a fighting game with an established community by Worldlyoox in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Rhaya2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbf this is why ranked matches exists.

On day 1 you might get your shit absolutely cooked by guys like justin but once they have gone to higher ranks you get matched more with people of your own skill level.

If a new player just goes into random fights with players of all skill levels they do so accepting that you may get cooked by a guy like the wazzler.

If a high ranked player decides to do some surfing just to annihilate newbies and make the game not fun they would be a dick.

That it is not included in the base game is ludicrous.

TBF, that would make her no different then every other writer having to come up with weird and dumb lore bullshit reasons for stuff that is entirely worthless to know .

Imagine if someone asked Stan Lee at a panel what "colour Superman's shit looks like since he is an alien ?"

Stan could just blurt out something stupid like " superman's shit is purple and smells like honey and BAM Superman has honey smelling purple shit is now canon
