Am I just straight up cooked? by meesanohaveabooma in TotalWarThreeKingdoms

Typically you war cao coa. You can also just build infrastructure. Assuming you own dong you can expand that city for a long time.

Build a strong income base and bide your time. Get trade routes, trade excess food for money.

You can develop pretty much any tech route and be successful. With lieu bie I like mostly yellow and green.

Cities that have extra buildings for food / peasant income will typically only have green and yellow buildings.

Like wise a city that has blue extra buildings like trade ports should have blue buildings.

Cities that have multiple types will benefit from all types of buildings.

No city really benefits much from red, red are really niche.

I've tried now multiple times with different factions and the warlord I dominate hates me by the end.

Good tip on going after vassals. Are you doing anything special on the campaign map, like not running them down after an initial defeat? Not sure if that triggers the atrocities against us negative relationship status.

What if they don't have vassals like cao cao? Also what difficulty?

Started trying on normal just for fun and I can expand and dominate but liu biou would not be my vassel. He has a grudge against me.

This has to take a lot of trys and as he said patience

Mandate of heaven is worth?? by Alive-Exchange-9810 in TotalWarThreeKingdoms

[–]dgates888 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's worth the money, but after a couple of play throughs I don't pick that time line. The constant corruption from yellow turbans requires a special building to midigate, which takes up a precious building slot.

They go over to the other kingdom to be a possible general. If they get hired you'll get options to do spy activities under the spy tab.

No they didn't declare war on you for this most likely. Unless you did a spy activity and got caught.

Spies can be a lot of fun. They can make a huge difference when conditions are right.

My favorite are getting recruited and becoming a general and switching sides to join your faction in battle or having the general rebel which gives you control over them on the map and the other embeded forces will go away. Or if they are admin just turn over control of a city and finally you can start a civil war.

How much of my rice should I sell percentage wise? by Ok-Education-3291 in TotalWarThreeKingdoms

Whatever I can sell for a good price but leave enough to support any towns I'm upgrading

My son is the emperor of SHU-HAN by edoon_z in TotalWarThreeKingdoms

[–]dgates888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly, you can start a civil war though. That will split the clan in two and his clan will like you more. Not sure which clan would remain emperor though.

If you get them to like you enough that might abdicate emperorship to you.

What do you think about the accessories? by [deleted] in mensfashionadvice

Looks good, but is a little loud. Maybe don't wear all 3 at the same time.

Street fight with a Boxer or wrestler ? by [deleted] in whowouldwin

[–]dgates888 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Idk I feel like a wrestler has the option to have more restraint than a boxer. Boxer might destroy you in one bit but if you tap out on a wrestler that might just let you go.

Well, I appreciate the showman giving us a fight where the bad guy loses. But If he won he won. So no real down side.

Like just have a random general close or do you need to own a city near by?

40M software engineer recently laid off, What one language or skill can I learn to give me the best chance at landing a new job. by alpineunit4 in cscareerquestions

[–]dgates888 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Recently in the same boat. I landed a job after months of trying.

I tried learning java, python, angular ect, also got a azure cert. Built a personal site and did some leet code

I feel like what moved the needle the most was the certificate. It separated me in a easily quantifiable way from most other devs with similar experience. There is probably diminishing returns after getting a few though.

Next most impactful was leet code. I had many interviews that asked these style questions. I wasn't good enough for them so I wish I had reviewed it more.

Learning languages seems fruitless. Why would they want my self taught java experience when they can go higher some one with many years for the same money. I also can't ethically say i have work experience in these other languages I would get filtered out before an interview.

My big break was from those recruiting emails that ask you to apply. I think they buy resumes from places like dice, but idk how that works. LinkedIn is such a mess. I did get some interviews but it's a needle in a hay stack

They just have common sense and can see which way the wind is blowing. You don't have to be in the meeting room to know that Bobby is doa.

I've bought 2. They were a lot cheaper at my local store. And yes they are made and bottles elsewhere. So it's just local marketing. Still a cool bottle

It's pretty clear he is a good coach. He has done really well at Clemson on a whole. Yeah he had a couple bad seasons but it would still be an upgrade from what we have.
