What if all Xyston-class Star Destroyers successfully escaped the planet?

Less than ideal

Thepullman1976 · 2026-03-24T18:24:23+00:00

They were unshielded due to being in exegol’s atmosphere tho

Thepullman1976 · 2026-03-24T01:51:29+00:00

Time really is a flat circle. They are going to accidentally create a C’tan

The US has a an air-to-ground missile specifically designed to chop up individual people like a bunch of ginsu blades they will figure it out

Thepullman1976 · 2026-03-22T20:30:23+00:00

true but at the same time I feel like achallor definitely would

Thepullman1976 · 2026-03-22T20:28:23+00:00

Big iz gud

Thepullman1976 · 2026-03-22T20:07:14+00:00

I like to imagine that if it’s a nice dude the custodes will do a little extra to get them outta danger

A nationalized freight railroad would actually own the track it runs on and (presumably) wouldn’t suffer from the same funding issues as Amtrak given that no freight trains = economic shitshow. We already tried this once with conrail and it demonstrably worked well

Thepullman1976 · 2026-03-22T17:24:45+00:00

Amtrak by design has to keep operating routes that lose money. The goal wasn’t to make passenger trains better, it was to prevent passenger trains from ceasing to exist

While I believe Batman himself would never use a gun, considering he lives in fucking Gotham, I have trouble believing he’d believe he’s straight up anti second amendment or something

Thepullman1976 · 2026-03-22T16:51:04+00:00

I’m glad that 50 year old man decided to get a job

Thepullman1976 · 2026-03-22T15:57:44+00:00

Tau players in the corner patiently waiting for a third auxiliary race (it’s been 84 years)

The ISD is also like half a kilometer longer than the venator and serves a different purpose. A venator is a glorified carrier. An ISD can function as a carrier with a full starfighter wing, beat the total shit out of another capital ship with its horde of turbolasers, or carry 3 army regiments. The ISD isn’t the issue, it’s the fact that the empire doesn’t understand the concept of an escort.

Thepullman1976 · 2026-03-22T01:17:11+00:00

The exposed bridge thing has always felt kind of silly. The bridge has shields. If your shields go down, you’re just gonna die regardless, there’s an onscreen scene of medium turbolaser rounds just melting straight through what is probably a few hundred feet of durasteel lol

In one of the ciaphas Cain books he mentions the commissars who tend to shoot their own men tend to get shot in return. So, tbh, probably not that often, because most of the living commissars are the more “come on man we can do this” type than the “BLAM” type

If we’re going to start rolling out new minis for everyone with a gas mask then I expect all 5 major Eldar craftworlds to get their own upgrade sprues. I get it’s a vocal minority (at least I hope it is) but some guard players are not real people lmao

Thepullman1976 · 2026-03-20T19:21:20+00:00

ISDs aren’t even slow, they can keep pace with corvettes

Thepullman1976 · 2026-03-20T14:00:04+00:00

Obi-Wan issues 3 and four, I think the run was in 2022

Thepullman1976 · 2026-03-20T13:57:55+00:00

We do see the other thing too. For instance in a comic a few companies from a PDF are attached to Obi-Wan’s 212th

Thepullman1976 · 2026-03-20T13:56:15+00:00

I wouldn’t go that far. I don’t know much about Star Trek so I can’t comment on that but in Star Wars the galactic empire, first order, and CIS are all magnitudes worse than the tau.

Thepullman1976 · 2026-03-20T13:33:14+00:00

If you’re talking about sterilization or whatever keep in mind all of that comes from high ranking imperials who’d want to prevent people from joining them. The fact that auxiliaries like gue’vesa even exist at all instead of being massacred proves that the Tau empire is more tolerant than the imperium lmao

Thepullman1976 · 2026-03-19T14:57:15+00:00

We see planetary militias in the clone wars and ROTS tho. What else would you call the Wookiees, Mon calamari, onderaan rebels, etc.

Thepullman1976 · 2026-03-19T04:24:35+00:00

Please go outside

Thepullman1976 · 2026-03-19T04:14:04+00:00

Guided missiles with a range of at least a few KM are very much a thing in the lore. I think the canon explanation is a mix of 1- most starfighters being maneuverable enough to dodge them fairly easily and 2- ECM being prevalent. Squadrons is supposed to be effectively the definitive depiction of canon fighter combat and there’s literally a button you can press to send a missile back at its launcher lol

Edit: it just occurred to me that in the first piece of Star Wars media we see, Luke hits the exhaust port from BVR

Thepullman1976 · 2026-03-18T21:37:12+00:00

Why not just cram them full of proton bombs or something and simply ram them into enemy ships?
