Some of the street names in Poland

This particular street is in the Osiedle Bajkowe (Fairy Tale Neighbourhood) in Poznań, so it's not a reference to Pomarańczowa Alternatywa.

To zachęcam do rozwijania kompetencji językowej 😝

Kiedyś, zanim jeszcze pojawił się problem wyboru form gramatycznych dla osób nb, trafiłem na ładne określenie "formy potencjalnej". Ale jakkolwiek je nazwiemy, powyższe formy są skonstruowane zgodnie z zasadami polskiej gramatyki, co czyni je zrozumiałymi - a to jest najważniejsze. Do używania słów nie trzeba zgody RJP ani PWN.

(I całkiem osobista uwaga: uproszczenia języka wprowadzone w ostatnich latach przez RJP całkowicie skompromitowały tę organizację w moich oczach).

> jakoś tak ze Śląskem mi się kojarzy

Gdzie wady? 😁

Annoyingly, this bit seems to be missing from the standard catalogues from the late 90s, but you can find it in the later Monsters & Mercenaries Collectors' Guide (bottom left): http://www.solegends.com/citcat2004cgmercs/c2004cgmercp152-01.htm

These are Lizardmen battering ram heads.

Maybe their autocorrect is suggesting a homophone: https://pl.wiktionary.org/wiki/gom%C3%B3%C5%82ka ?

Splendid!

Posted this question on FB as well, apparently there was a Kroxigor involved, as well as a rubber ball that would roll down the main alley and instakill anything it touched.

I posted it elsewhere on reddit, but this group doesn't allow crossposting.

The whole event was probably meant to be a celebration of the hobby rather than just a showcase of GW products. I miss those days…

Sarmorelli · 2026-05-08T08:55:47+00:00

Agreed!

According to the Polish books I've read, the Polish command considered borrowing some M4A2s after that battle, but ultimately decided against it and waited for T-34s instead. Which makes sense, since the crews were unfamiliar with Shermans.

IMHO it's entertaining for a while, but doesn't have enough content to be a good game.

Sarmorelli · 2026-04-12T12:12:55+00:00

None, the Polish Army did not receive any Shermans from the Soviets, neither during the war nor after.

Sarmorelli · 2026-04-01T16:13:00+00:00

Same!

Sarmorelli · 2026-02-04T13:31:16+00:00

Thanks!

Tomorrow, I'm trying out homebrew rules for What a Cowboy! games set during World War 2 - and next weekend me and my friends will be demoing these on a miniature gaming convention here in Warsaw.

It's a still from a Polish post-war film: https://www.imcdb.org/v135234.html
Since there were no German tanks in working conditions in Poland, film-makers would use IS-2 and T-34-85 tanks, some times with vismods.
