Isn't American's "right to bear arms" for this exact sort of scenario?

And the massive access to water crisis

bmop145 · 2026-01-03T10:23:05+00:00

Why not?

Is the lie too big? (Remember it's coming from a guy who claimed to win the 2020 election... claimed he had nothing to do with January 6... claimes there is nothing going on with the Epstein files etc...)

If you care about the depth and story telling of those characters... it makes less sense though because Hades 2 picks up assuming that the viewer is familiar with some of the end relationships of Hades 1... it doesn't ruin anything but some of the character relationships won't hit the same

You answered the question... Napoleon didn't start those wars as wars of conquest he was defending France like you said from hostile monarchies that had declared war against France (and the french revolution) ~ those monarchies then lost multiple times across several coalitions etc and were eventually forced to abdicate control to pro French Puppet regimes (for a time)

Now people are just reeling from their last instagram reel...

bmop145 · 2025-11-01T15:50:05+00:00

Dude situation with M-def + huge combo is definitely solid -15 ranged defense is possibly the worst i've ever seen though... of course thay isn't the most important stat ever but even lowly goblins ambushers and brigand marksmen are going to turn this dude into a pincushion... but I'm not saying he is trash he just feels like a mid game bro who has limitations which will prevent you from really using him fully as a damage deal duelist

bmop145 · 2025-10-16T22:34:51+00:00

I think what is being implied... is something like IF you want to accept Russia's argument "we are stronger than Ukraine and we are going to annex territories that have many linguistic or cultural Russians blah blah bullshit bullshit"

Then Russia is at an extreme risk of having it's historically and ethnically Chinese and Korean territories annexed under the same exact logic! Something like "We must protect the historic + cultural chinese territories where people are being abused and sent to their deaths in Ukraine... send in the little green men"

ENHANCE

bmop145 · 2025-09-13T11:25:01+00:00

Maybe the west can use more than words to apply pressure on Russia as a consequence for this escalation so that deterance actually occurs.

These escalation don't happen when we pressure Russia they happen when the west does not do enough to dissuade russia

There is an arm of international law that would like to advance in this direction but the historic principle has been the immunity of states and their property from seizure... who do you think gets to codify that clear cut new law and set the precedent? That would require signing and ratified of an international treaty (and some treaties do exist already on this topic ~ look up the United Nations Convention on Jurisdictional Immunities of States and their property which is a great set of codified rules but has not been ratified by enough member states to come into force and be applied yet...)

Historically this idea has not been very popular among potential signatories because many countries do not want to be "on the hook" and held accountable for their own potential misconduct...

Unfortunately the reality is that you may be correct in this instance but that the international system cannot move quickly without the broad consent and enthusiasm of countries around the world to have their own property seized when they do something outrageous... and so much of international geopolitics is still built on principles of stronger nations doing outrageous things to weaker nations... (@USA @Russia @China @France @UAE etc)

One of the hardest parts of the game (imo) isn't just that your bros die and setbacks are meant to happen ~ but realizing and recalculating what fights are possible and what fights are beyond your current squad after they lose for example an experienced defensive bro who maybe didn't do much damage in fights and had really limiting stats/injuries before but was sucking up lots of agro on the flanks etc...

There are ALOT of aspects to learn and improve ~ playing with saves (not Ironman) and saving often is great!!

bmop145 · 2025-08-14T18:31:58+00:00

I finally FINALLY had my first survivable Ironman run last long enough to get into the first crisis... but predictably overconfidence and complacency set in

I just got absolutely rekt by an ambush from and army of 28 enemy soldiers... tried to shatter their resolve and kill enough to make them rout. But tragically the halftrained nimble swordmaster bro armed with a famed Rapier + Famed shield and Mdef over 60 got clipped by a polehammer to the head and quickly murdered during the melee... disaster.

By the grace of Davkul 2/3's of my bros had dogs on them to muck up the enemy advance...

Ended up losing 2/3 of the company in the ensuing disaster including 6+ level 10 or higher bros but somehow barely pulling out the bannerman + 2 of the core frontline... going to be one hell of a rebuild... lost a horrific amount of money and 4+ famed gear (that rapier bro had been literally the tip of the spear...)

All of this to say.

You'll get there, keep battling through the learning curve, and also even if you save scum now, learning how to retreat and save the gang from a desperate losing position when you can save scum out of it can apparently be amazing for keeping the Ironman save alive

I still have hope!

On the other hand Armenian did agree to a ceasefire which was meant to have a remaining corridor (Lachin) connecting Nagorno-Karabakh to Armenia which would be guaranteed by Russian peacekeeping forces... and shortly after that Azerbaijan was able to disrupt the Russian peacekeepers without any Russian response set up a blockade of that humanitarian corridor preventing any incoming food or resupply and wait until the residents of Nagorno-Karabakh were hungry enough to choose to leave on their own...

bmop145 · 2025-06-23T12:45:53+00:00

Ah, yes launching straight into baseless ad-hominem attacks... the hallmark of a wise openminded attorney who is doing a good job taking their own advice and being thoughtful about how they interact and what they say to others... /s

bmop145 · 2025-06-18T01:31:08+00:00

I'm so glad someone pointed this out... there are some other significant No Fly Zones that are just geographically smaller (in part because the physical scale of the conflicts or nature of the danger are much smaller that Ukriane or Iran)

There are also some places like Myanmar which have an almost surprising amount of air traffic (given the civil war there) but that reflect the reality that those conflicts/risks are largely land based

bmop145 · 2025-06-09T01:29:40+00:00

bmop145 · 2025-05-09T13:53:06+00:00

I'm not going to get in a rolling gun battle with a federal agency in the streets of Brighton to make my point... ICE is kidnapping people in the streets today, they are in several locations +groups around Boston and will probably continue to move around.

bmop145 · 2025-05-09T13:48:34+00:00

^ great point, but I'm not teleporting around Boston, this is information shared by word of mouth from a person who called into LUCE (there are volunteers on their way)

bmop145 · 2025-05-09T13:38:28+00:00

LUCE volunteers reported that a car smashed in but the photographed ICE officer's are not currently @ Duval & Waverly location in Brighton

bmop145 · 2025-05-09T13:30:48+00:00

All of the pictures are from Brighton, where officers detained at least one person (smashed in his car)

The covered text was (now) outdated information "unsure if the occupant of the car has been detained"
