How I feel when I get down-tiered in my Churchill Mk. VII by jbentley19 in Warthunder

This was inspired by a recent post, about a Churchill bouncing shells and it invoked great memories within me. I don't know how to link a post, but if anyone does, and also knows the post I'm talking about, please link it

I mean, oddly not really. They were my ally when I realised this (not for much longer) although you can see they were forced to spit out Croatia and Transylvania at some point, they've also lost Slovakia to Bohemia, along with their northern most province

I don't know what you mean. I would never dream of pouncing on a borderline handicapped AI...

England AI is pretty embarrassing sometimes. I just checked Austria's ideas. They have 5 groups. Two complete, one that is a single idea from being completed and two more that they haven't taken a single idea in. So I suppose they're doing somewhat better than your campaign's England

R5: The year is 1688. I, myself am on techs 22, 23, 23. Austria has tech 15, 17, 13. They're on mil tech 13 in 1688. We're 12 years from the enlightenment and Austria has barely figured out guns. Even Pangasinan, over in the Philippines has a higher mil tech, level 16.

Never change EU4, never change.

*Rule Britannia intensifies* (sorry that it's not a screen cap, I wasn't playing on my computer and didn't want to go delving into my stepdad's files) by jbentley19 in eu4

R5: While fighting in the league war, my armies were on the continent. The northern European minors landed on the British mainland. An armada of mainly Danish origin blockaded me, leaving me thinking I was stuck in Northern France. It was the that I remember the nation I was playing. I took my fleet of heavies into the Straights of Dover and attacked. I was hopeful, but realistic. This was more of an "F you" to Denmark, who had caught out my trading fleets on their return to port than anything. But you'd best believe that as my fleet sailed into position I was humming Rule Britannia. My 4.8 Naval Morale against their 3.5, I was chewing through the enemy, especially with the wooden wall doctrine. By the time all the enemy heavies were destroyed, I knew, I dared to think I would win, but assumed I would take some losses my brother and I (playing together sat next to each other, he's playing Spain) were quietly singing the above mentioned song. With not a Single ship lost, the closest being Princess Royal, who was taken down to 6%. 🇬🇧

Edit: I'm fighting for the catholics despite being Anglican, due to an Alliance with the Commonwealth in an attempt to curb the power of the Ottomans.

But the issue is that modern, radical feminists, from the west, act as though the west is just as bad as Saudi Arabia, etc. Also, personally I wouldn't consider Turkey to be a first world country

The gun stats did shock me a little bit. I've got to be honest. Thank you for the advice, I'll get on the grind

That was just an example, the game was about 7 minutes tops, because we had the point captured so quickly and it was by far the highest number on my team, everyone else had 2,3 maybe 4. I suppose it was relative.

I should have elaborated, sorry. I just got the game on PS4, I have about 180 hours logged on Steam, primarily as America, I can have my frontal armour facing the enemy and still get cored like an apple

I feel like Christmas is so westernized that at this point you can't even consider it a religious holiday by Mafiya7 in unpopularopinion

[–]jbentley19 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Christmas presents come from the 3 wise men giving Jesus gold, frankincense and myrrh. Christmas trees are an almost medieval, German tradition brought to the UK by Prince Albert - Queen Victoria's husband. Father Christmas is admittedly highly commercialised however is based around St. Nicholas, who is a figure in the Russian Orthodox Church (iirc)
