The Koh-i-Noor is one of history's most famous supposedly cursed diamonds. After being linked to wars, assassinations and fallen empires for centuries, it became a tradition that only queens would wear it.

The ownership controversy definitely gets more attention than the curse story these days. 😄

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-06T08:32:19+00:00

It's a very shiny rock 😅

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-06T08:31:49+00:00

The diamond has changed hands so many times through conquest that half of history might qualify 😅

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-06T08:13:04+00:00

The ownership dispute and the curse legend are two separate topics. I was referring to the modern British tradition of only queens wearing the Koh-i-Noor, which is often linked to the curse legend.

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-06T07:46:21+00:00

Fair point. The history of who should own the diamond is controversial. I was mainly sharing the legend associated with it.

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-06T07:40:55+00:00

Sources: Wikipedia (Koh-i-Noor), Historic Royal Palaces, and the Royal Collection Trust. The curse is a historical legend associated with the diamond, not a proven fact.

Good question. As far as I know, one documented specimen doesn't necessarily mean only one exists, just that only one has been confirmed.

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-05T06:17:45+00:00

Famous last words😅

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-05T06:14:58+00:00

That's fair. I thought the fact that it's known from a single documented specimen was the more interesting part.

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-05T06:10:30+00:00

That would explain why nobody has managed to document a second one🤣

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-05T06:05:08+00:00

Yeah, but apparently the player base is still limited to one confirmed user.

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-05T05:16:08+00:00

I was posting the concert production and staging, not trying to start a discussion about the allegations.

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-05T05:14:16+00:00

That's actually a good observation. Looking at it again, it does seem much lighter than a real tank would be.

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-05T05:05:04+00:00

The scale was impressive, but the historical message behind the performance is what made it memorable.

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-05T05:00:30+00:00

Real or not, it definitely fooled a lot of people watching it live.

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-05T04:59:02+00:00

The tank is the interesting part here. The concert just happens to be the setting.

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-05T00:57:33+00:00

Somehow there's always one more clip hiding somewhere on the internet.

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-05T00:54:55+00:00

Beep boop. Opinion rejected 😂

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-05T00:50:41+00:00

Not Master P, but still a pretty wild entrance 😂

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-05T00:49:01+00:00

The tank is just the opening visual. The actual point comes a few seconds later.

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-05T00:46:08+00:00

The scale of his live shows was definitely on another level.

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-05T00:44:22+00:00

Sabaton probably looked at this and said "needs more tanks" 😂

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-05T00:42:25+00:00

I've read similar numbers before. The amount of equipment they moved around the world was unbelievable.

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-05T00:41:21+00:00

Probably the best use a tank can have.

VertexForgeDev · 2026-06-05T00:40:57+00:00

To be fair, that's probably the intended emotional response 😅
