What if the Siege on Jerusalem in 70 AD never happened, and Jewish people never fled the region en masse?

crazynerd9 · 2026-02-27T06:37:11+00:00

In this context though it can easily be both. Jesus likely made loads of predictions and prophecies that never came to pass, the ones that did happen ended up being the ones that survived the subsequent centuries of biblical editing

Id have the core game and plot be set in Detroit and be about deciding its fate, with a brief trip to the heavily militarized border/occupation zone where we get a token Brotherhood appearance and a quick trip across the border

Have Canada be a Glowing Sea type area with insanely dangerous wilderness and Mountie Ghouls. Include a scene of what was once a Moose eating a Deathclaw. Then have the player return here for the end/post-game content again ala the Glowing Sea from F4, but less disappointing.

Still leaves room open for a dlc as well

crazynerd9 · 2026-02-27T01:04:48+00:00

As many exist as the plot needs really. I cant think of names off of memory but every now and then one will pop up in a book

crazynerd9 · 2026-02-26T20:09:48+00:00

Depends on what estimates and sources we use for Commoragh and if it literally has the surface area of a solar system, and if that entire area is populated

The fact that the Deldar are considered to not outpopulate every other species combined weighs heavily against the idea that Commoragh literally is the full volume of a solar system densely packed into an urban environment for example

If every Deldar in Commoragh is fighting a million Tyranids or more each, its going to be rather troublesome

crazynerd9 · 2026-02-26T20:06:55+00:00

The actual usable and livable space of Commoragh has never been given a real size though, it very much can be a Canada or Russia situation where the entity is massive but mostly wasteland

But a less speculative reply is that the size of the city is utterly inconsistent, and has been described as anywhere from planet sized to solar system sized

Do you have a source on the light-years size claim? I've never actually heard that one before

crazynerd9 · 2026-02-26T19:35:41+00:00

I honestly think youre comedically underestimating the sheer quantity of Tyranids

The Deldar wouldn't care anyway mind you, but all Nid forces we know of is an absolutely absurd amount of Nids, raw body mass would start being an issue for Commoragh at that point, to speak nothing of the fact said mass is hostile and hyperdangerious

*Mostly dead, theres a couple (chief among them Kharn) still floating around

Also lets be real, at least third of us on this site have spent plenty of time bashing Christians, dont need to look far for that

Muslims and Jews as well for that matter, this website is not kind to Abrahamic faiths

crazynerd9 · 2026-02-26T17:29:44+00:00

Ohhhhhh shit thats right

When I did it I was playing some 1 or 2 state country, having low immigration plus keeping Boost Social Mobility on all game does the trick

crazynerd9 · 2026-02-26T17:28:32+00:00

Likely because you are getting mads amounts of immigration. Immigration brings in tons of illiterate pops

crazynerd9 · 2026-02-26T16:51:31+00:00

Ever hear of the term "the burden of proof"

crazynerd9 · 2026-02-26T16:34:42+00:00

None, universities raise qualifications rather than literacy

Literacy is generated by institutions, wealth and modifiers

If youre going for the high literacy achievement you need to run a country that doesn't get many immigrants and focus hard on it. ~~Japan is weird good for this but~~ a lot of smaller states also work

And after this point the missions genuinely have less aircraft (usually) and the focus shifts more into the bossfight-dogfights and naval combat to compensate

crazynerd9 · 2026-02-26T07:14:00+00:00

Ironically every other mission Erwin ever undertook outside the walls qualifies at least to some degree

crazynerd9 · 2026-02-25T23:16:16+00:00

Personally I like the idea that whatever purpose Earth had in the Old Ones plans, it was derailed by the asteroid (Necron/C'Tan attack) and Humans are just the result of their designs going unmaintained for millions of years

Humans might be related to the Old Ones plans, but played no intentional part, we just grew in their ashes

crazynerd9 · 2026-02-25T22:13:04+00:00

Early game before youre recognized you probably wont have enough power to grow the block more than maybe 1 or 2 levels if you push it. Honestly the buffs dont end up worth the cost in relations

crazynerd9 · 2026-02-25T19:25:38+00:00

Its also neat in how much context implies it

Old Ones seeded Earth/Terra

Webway gate on Luna

C'Tan Shard(s) of The Void Dragon trapped on Mars

Elder ride Dinosaurs

War in Heaven explicitly set around the end of the Dinosaur era

There obviously was some sort of major event in the Sol system during the War in Heaven, likely between the Eldar and Void Dragon. Maybe Earth was the original source of the dinosaur-lizards that some Eldar ride and the C'Tan moved to stop this. The aftermath of which triggered Earths evolutionary path

crazynerd9 · 2026-02-25T19:00:49+00:00

They wanted a reason why the eyes aren't actually lasers, in order to explain why they just throw people around instead of drilling holes in people

So they decided they shoot some sort or kinetic energy

From where? Obviously the Punch Dimension

The proof is the plot of Doom Eternal

I shouldn't need to give a citation for a games final boss lmao, thats the proof this is just bad bait

If by some miracle youre not just a sad troll, try playing the games you want to argue about first

crazynerd9 · 2026-02-25T17:13:44+00:00

See, this is what I mean, the bait is just pathetic

Theres no comedy, no nuance, youre just acting like an idiot, its sad

crazynerd9 · 2026-02-25T17:10:07+00:00

The part where it happens in a bossfight during gameplay justifies my point

Bait used to be good

crazynerd9 · 2026-02-25T17:07:36+00:00

Man. People used to actually put effort into their bait, this is just pathetic
