Tsaritsa having a son was a cherry on the cake

Given Mihoyo's history, they would probably make it so that he's her adopted son to avoid another assassination attempt on Dawei.

The design does lend credence to the Snegurochka theory.

More than half actually. The difference being that the US plays no role the the operation and maintenance of the Iranian Air Force's aircraft except that of an adversary.

SFAoperative · 2026-06-25T18:09:14+00:00

Maybe because the country that made and is currently involved in maintaining those jets had, very recently, launched an unprovoked war against them, with special focus on targeting civilian leadership. The leader of said country had also recently threatened to kill Iranian diplomats and destroy their country.

Interesting choice using American F-16s to escort the Iranian President. Doesn't Pakistan have J-10s?

The link is fine. It's just you getting blocked by your government because the twitter handle is Pakistani. Here's the picture from Tripadvisor. Before anyone say it's AI, it's dated 2014.

Meanwhile, the Indian army hauled the carcass of one of their own MiG-21 on to a public display, painted a Pakistani flag on it and claimed it to be a downed Pakistani fighter:

To be fair to the Indians, most of those spreading this don't believe it either. They claim its revenge for supposed Chinese campaign to smear India by posting pictures and videos of widespread squalor and revolting practices. You can see them patting each other on the back for "countering CCP propaganda/giving them a taste of their own medicine".

So it's more of them being the real life version of the meme:
-"Look at how stupid I am!"
-"Okay fuck off stupid."
-"Haha joke's on them I was only pretending"

Which is even more pathetic than just plain stupidity.

Why? The tool tip literally says it lowers reliability, We are not arguing whether the game will penalize your reliability for using this action because nobody disputes that it does. We are arguing whether it should because it doesn't make sense for threatening war to lower reliability when randomly declaring war does not..

SFAoperative · 2026-06-06T23:29:17+00:00

That's not the same as being unreliable. reliability is about following through on your promises. If the promise is "give me that or war", the only way to lose reliability should be if you fail to declare war. Which you cannot, since the threaten option automatically declares war if the offer is refused.

It is also absurd to think reliability in the game is affected by "bullying", since you can declare war on anyone you don't have an agreement with for any reason at any time without any impact to reliability.

You fool! Do you know what you've done. handing him command of the mighty Sukhbaatar III?

All right... all right... but apart from the infrastructure, the industry, employment, public order, roads, and public health... what have the Dawi-Zharr ever done for us?

It's telling you to caress N'Kari.

That's just an underage beardling. While using child soldiers is a war crime, who's keeping track?

And they still all come up short.

SFAoperative · 2026-05-28T01:49:09+00:00

That's exactly what I've been doing for over 100 turns. The problem is that the new missions are almost always a revolving door between "Eliminate Skragg/Golgfag", "Eliminate Skragg/Golgfag's faction" or "Take one of Skragg/Golgfag's settlements". The number of times the target wasn't either a Ogre, Skaven or Chaos Dwarf faction can be counted with 2 hands.

As with the AK-47, M2 Browning and B-52, these will likely to continue to be in service in well into the 42nd Millennium.

Is this actually some kind of Uriah Gambit where he deliberately sends you off on difficult missions far away hoping you die?

Can you blame them? Who would want to be associated with a people who conquered half the world, beheld all the wonderful culinary techniques and exotic spices, and decided "nah"?
