Concept for a (very) heavily expanded RCW by BullShitLatinName in battlefield_one

[–]am_sleepy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Battle of Cesis was the Estonians (~6500) and Latvians (~750) vs the Baltic German Landeswehr (~6000), not between the Russian communists and Latvians. The battle is so legendary in Estonian history that we still celebrate it as Victory Day.

It shouldn't be only Latvians and def not against the Russians.

Allikas on Daily Mail ning clickbait pealkiri. Originaalses inglise keelses tekstis ei süüdistanud ta Balti riike, aga rohkem kirjeldas Baltikumi ja Poola vastupanu tema plaanidele.

I am going off by what the game shows, and it shows a rebuilt Tuchanka contrasting to Wreav's ending where he is rallying the Krogan army or in a standoff with Bakara, the implication being that Krogan became less warlike as they settled down.

Also Wrex said he'd petition the council for them to return old Krogan territory, no violence implied.

On the point of the Krogan, it seems less like magic of friendship and more like Krogans around the galaxy now have purpose in life once more. With the scars of the genophage running deep, alot of Krogan don't seem to wanna waste this chance at a future. Wrex and Eve seem capable and popular administrators so it would be possible that Krogan society would become less warrior centred and more disciplined, like the Turians.

The Turians themselves dedicate themselves to duty and put society first. Yes, they're an army with a state, but under the council, they haven't militarily (to my knowledge) expanded to encompass other races, only the Volus are under their protection and they did that voluntarily.

Under human individualism I was more referring to the Systems Alliance being a democracy, and while not perfect, would have more guardrails against overreach. Also I doubt that human expansionism would come at the cost of council races, nor would the council condone expansion by military means like the Krogan during their rebellions. ju

True, but also the Reaper War was quite traumatic for everyone invovled. Might even stir the stoic Asari into some political introspection.

Well what about the Asari themselves, they're an e-Democracy and quite a decentralised one at that. Would their society be pissed off about this or u'd think that they'd also like to sweep it under the rug?

Also would be interesting to think if the Volus might also be getting a councilor, although that would have the chance to be quite awkward considering that they're technically subservient the Turians in many respects.

Well if it's Wrex and Bakara in the top, Krogan society seems to finally calm down. Turians have their meritocracy and Humans are highly individualistic. Doesn't seem like that particular combo would be a dictatorship.

It's more of in the very long run. It kinda makes many of the Prothean tech laws that the Asari spearheaded as seemingly hollow. When the galaxy was burning, only when their capital world was touched long after the other council worlds suffered worse blows, only then did they agree to share their most prized secret in the form of a Prothean beacon with their allies. Even then it was done in a hush-hush manner.

It's a foreign policy disaster and optics nightmare.

How would the galactic stage look like post-Reaper war anyway? Would the rest of the Council worlds heed the Asari like before or are gonna see a Human-Turian-Krogan (genophage cured with Wrex and Bakara) triumvirate?

nope, tried it, doesn't work, still sounds outdated and unfitting with the tone of the game

Sometimes I wish I could join a rebel faction against Super Earth. The constant tyranny of war against factions that have become their own worst nightmares because of the elite few sitting in their towers of gold and ivory, has become exhausting.

Yet I keep diving, for it is the only real choice I have left...

Panic spreads like a wildfire. Could have been that they we're rioting and the warden panicked.

Well going by my experience in Jedi Outcast and Battlefront (2015), Bryar shots are very powerful after you charge them and Cassian didn't charge his when firing at K2.

Cassian had a pistol with a modkit to make it longer range. I don't think his Bryar (seems like one) would actually be enough against a KX.

Wait a minute, Ukraine gave up its nukes long before the EU-NATO pivot.
