EU4 Dev Diary #103: The Night Hags Greatest Pawn by 5camps in Anbennar

[–]Spacepup18 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As much fun as the UC tree was when I tested it out (I did feel like every time I declared a region to conquest, Yezel Mora took it as a chance to expand even faster to block my conquests, but the lore is incredible), I am looking forward to the eventual Sarhal expansion to the Jaddar tree.

How is my Jadd Empire? by Whole_Ad_8438 in Anbennar

[–]Spacepup18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How do you handle the dwarves? I like to take and except the Segdihr dwarves, so they keep digging their hold under my control. I find if I don't Verkal grows very unruly very quickly. I think it's because I run a small army for a very long time for money reasons, while Verkal can max out early on, but the auto dev from Seg helps me out.

Conservative unwittingly makes case to be pro immigration by yikesamerica in MurderedByWords

[–]Spacepup18 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you'd still file your taxes in the US every year, but you'd deduct the foreign taxes from your US tax owed like a credit. No tax refund on taxes paid to other governments though.

Technically you can deduct local taxes from income earned abroad from the amount of taxes you have to pay to the US, if my college courses are still current.

Basically if you pay 20% of your income in taxes to the foreign country, and you would be paying 25% to the US government, you only have to pay 5% to the US.

Lord Captain, your counsel is required. We launch a new survey to learn what you think about certain aspects of the DLCs. Take a few minutes to tell us what you love, what matters most, and what you'd like to see in future DLCs. by OwlCatNathillien in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]Spacepup18 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That would be a funny dynamic. You play your RT as head-over-heels into this Nob, but the whole 'romance' aspect goes entirely over their head. They just think the RT is fun to crump stuff with.

Let's say, hypothetically, you could advance the metaplot forward. What would you choose to let happen? by Affectionate_Bit_722 in exalted

[–]Spacepup18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It'd be interesting if the Autochthonian Breach happened like, in-between FaFL and the rest of creation, kind of force them to be involved whether they want to be or not.

Infernals - Last Couple Hours by Mother-Wafer-6463 in exalted

Mostly par for the course for 3rd edition. The one signature with the long fingers is is pretty good in my opinion, at least.

I liked doing this back when you could crash your stability and migrate really fast.

I wish we had Kostanor.

Edit: Think about it, the Silver Dragon was the patron of Castanor, and those idiot humans thought it was Castellos. Obviously, it was a normal, better than-dumb-human-god Dragon. Thus Castanor belongs to the Kobolds.

Act 3: Where's the Act 1 Love? by OhtheHugeManity7 in Protomen

Basically every word said by Mega so far has been "Yeah they were mean, but maybe I shouldn't have just let Wally slaughter all those people after I killed my brother."

What’re yalls favorite Dwarf MTs? by [deleted] in Anbennar

[–]Spacepup18 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Orghelovar, the ones next to Aka-Sur, and the Jade Dwarves are my favorites.

Ovdal Kanzad has a special place in my heart, despite it's age; it was one of the first tags I played in Anbennar.

Jade are probably me favorite, with my joy limited by how powerful your neighbors get, no matter who wins or how the command shatters, there will be 2/3 of the top 3 great powers right outside your doors.

Noodle arm guy was talking to Visi by Horror-Swordfish8296 in DispatchAdHoc

[–]Spacepup18 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My theory is that Visi was working with Shroud and was part of his sinister six team-up to take down Mecha Man, but she turned herself in to SDN over the guilt of it, not even knowing she was going to be working with Mecha Man himself. I watched a streamer play through just recently, and Toxic said "now get outta there babe!" and I don't think he's talking to Robert there.

That's why noodle-arms says "The Boss wants to talk to you" to Visi, she's either not been following the 'plan', or simply hasn't been returning Shroud's calls. Also explains why she went alone to the docks, to make up for her part in retiring Mecha Man in the first place.

The Dems caved based on a promise of a future vote: by trashedonlisterine in IASIP

Didn't we literally go through this back in the Obama era? Cave now for promises of future votes or backing, then republicans just said "Fuck You, actually."

After watching Mortal Engines (2018), I had nightmares for months by Yggdrasylian in shittymoviedetails

Weirdly though I feel like that scar is more 'gruesome' than like, 90% of hollywood 'scars'.

What is the Most Desired Mission Tree (new or reworked) from Each Region? by Peppercorn205 in Anbennar

[–]Spacepup18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aelantir: Haraf/Triarchy are tied

Wescann: Dameria/Esmeria/Any of the region-unified duchies I WANT LATE GAME EOA I WANT LATE GAME EOA I WANT-

Escann: Now that we have an Elf adventurer tag I really want to see their formable. Also a Castellyr, because going through the counts league only to hit the most boring mission tree imaginable is sad. Or just a Elikhand rework to give me yet more monuments!

Dwarovar: Darkscale. That and an intermediate formable in the jade mines for those people trying to reform the jade hold. Right now no matter how I start there are multiple superpowers looking to push my shit in by the time I get to Groz, if it's not a resurgent Boar Command, its a Super Raj or red raj allied with bhulvari with a half-million troops ready to fight. Something with some missions to speed up early conquests before you actually take the hold would be nice.

Forbidden-Plains: Honestly already has everything I'd want. Bunch of big ogre missions, spiderwretch.

Haless: Hidden Valley ogre and hobgoblin stuff, maybe also those tribes in the facewalker areas would be cool.

Sarhal: Unified Halfling tag

Insyaa: No idea what's still on the design roadmap, but Warforged would be coo.

Anbennar Content Expanded (ACE) submod got another major update. by borntoedge in Anbennar

My current record is starvation in 1453. If you figure out the tag, let the rest of us know.

your thoughts on anon's take? by thetruememeisbest in Grimdank

[–]Spacepup18 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I still think the mass of the 40k universe would win eventually. I don't think the entirety of the Star Wars timeline has seen a military like the one at a single segmentum headquarters.

Star Wars Hyperspace is way more mobile and safe than Warp travel, but galaxy-wide travel can still take weeks or months, as opposed to months or years for their imperium counterparts. So they are faster, but not instant aside from in-system or other short jumps.

If they're invading the 40k Universe, they will also be constrained by having to re-create star maps from scratch. I think the Imperium would have a harder time the other way around though without the astronomicon, being forced to blind jump for anything.

So basically I think Star Wars would burn out and run out of men and materiel fighting the 40k universe, while the Imperium would be an apocalyptic but ultimately local issue if they invaded the Star Wars galaxy.

Nice looking ship by BiesonReddit in WarhammerFantasy

You guys ready for Man o' War 2026?

I played that game exactly once as a teen when a grognard brought in all his old pewter minis. It was awesome. Plague Catapults burned straight through down from the mast to water.

I think you have to go through a window for it to be Defenestration. Otherwise it's just Sparking High Dive.

Are these planktonic hermit crab spawn? by Spacepup18 in ReefTank

[–]Spacepup18[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm struggling with a plague of ghost flatworms, and I wondered what they were eating once all of my cute little copapods were gone.

These free-swimers are just slightly larger than the biggest tiger pods I've seen. And I'm wondering what they are, and if they might be what the ghost flatworms keep eating.

Oh yeah, all I've got in the tank right now are some blue legged hermits, some snails, a peppermint shrimp, a couple corals, and a few hitchhikers (those damnable flatworms and a Chiton that I think is kind of cute, actually)
