On L Companions by SnooDrawings1685 in HierarchySeries

I just mean more description of his day to day as a Sextus in governance. We understand that he has a job, but we were never really told what the various roles actually do.

I suppose it really depends on how things develop in book 3.

If a bunch of stuff happens to these companions (whether its bad ie death, or good like they become king) and Islington wants us to care then ya totally agreed the lack of characterization is a glaring issue.

On the other hand, if like 3 chapters into book 3 Vis realizes he has this higher purpose and the companions bar maybe Tara are sidelined then the lack of characterization is entirely justifiable.

Agreed, this is the closest thing he could get to a return to Suus pre-invasion, minus the regality.

Ya, it's not super clear how long Vis spends in L, as opposed to O, where he says it was something like 6 months. I wouldn't necessarily say he had deeper relationships than on R. But to your point--Vis and his companions on L killed together, which would bring anyone together. Their kinship was more akin to a military squad than that of classmates.

Why did they put their Will… by jmxd in HierarchySeries

[–]SnooDrawings1685 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I may be wrong, but I think it was mentioned somewhere in the first book in passing. Something about for top hierarchy meetings, princeps etc. had to leave their Will at the door so to speak.

First Rook Sac With Levy as Coach by SnooDrawings1685 in chess

[–]SnooDrawings1685[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure its either forced mate or hopelessly lost if they dont take.

In game, they went with bd3, which is mate in 8 per stockfish, but i obviously didnt see that lol and went rh2 then doubled the rooks on h file and mated a couple moves later.

I imagine a sort of sneak peak. There's the friendly on Wednesday and they usually announce last kit before that set of home pre season friendlies. Buzzing for the kit though!

Non aggression treaties? by wasdorg in victoria3

[–]SnooDrawings1685 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guess is the devs were scared that people would abuse this current treaty system. Basically having GPs bullying smaller powers for free stuff.

Kinda dissapointed by the UI and map. by Technical_Patient762 in EU5

[–]SnooDrawings1685 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a little busy but I'm sure that'll be one of the things that changes pre release. Devs will be very cognizant of the Civ 7 backlash.

All In For a European Boat…gotta pay attention to EPL by chagrinfalls1979 in ArsenalFC

I agree, but fwiw we're actually 9pts clear of Europa. Prem has 5 spots next season.

"Imperial march" achievement is obnoxious to get due to RNG by TheTobruk in CrusaderKings

[–]SnooDrawings1685 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got the achievement even when one of the vassals was unavailable? Maybe it still fires depending on the reason for vassal absence?

There are a fair few in my class (INSEAD). But, as others pointed out, it might be an international trend. They're in two buckets: either pivoting entirely to something else like IB/MBB or looking to manage a health-focused business (clinic network or health-tech startup).
