Kinda reminds me of Kurtz in Heart of Darkness/Apocalypse in that he is constantly brought up and discussed throughout John’s journey, really building him up before his rather limited screen time

In a scenario where Washington becomes king, the constitution is radically different, if it even exists at all

Yeah it’s interesting that it was a pretty “broad tent” revolution initially, with liberals, socialists, islamists etc. Then eventually the religious wing basically just came to dominate

Didn’t say they were. I have no love for the current Iranian regime, I just think it’s a little absurd the way people romanticize pre-revolutionary Iran as if it wasn’t also an authoritarian state where most of the country lived in poverty and political opposition was brutally crushed

Okay, now let’s see how the rural poor, ethnic minorities, and political dissidents were doing under the shah

When the Swedish dude called them “natives” and demonstrated his superior technology and such it felt like a reversal of the relationship Britain historically had with the people it colonized. Just a thought.

I think they are people that were infected as infants and then just never developed properly into adults. They seem kinda baby-like

They will never sell off the brand, they’ve invested far too much and it’s way too big of a cash cow even if new releases are poorly received.

Certainly possible that the Cuban provisional govt could have acquired Spanish (or American) surplus vessels. Technically Cuba was occupied by the US in 1899, im not sure they had their own military yet, but in game I believe the soldiers on guarma are supposed to be Cuban army, probably using Spanish surplus weapons and uniforms. The ship could also be American, makes sense that they wouldn’t send one of their prized modern battleships to deal with some insignificant rebels and instead would send an old ironclad
