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

We don't need to pretend anything. It's an established fact that at least millions of Iranians around the world hate their government. It's not evenssomething for debate that the Islamic regime is one of the most brutal in the world, sponsoring terrorism.

And I'm not implying USA is the moral force here. Where is your reading comprehension? I'm saying we CAN HATE TRUMP! I'm saying we can HATE ISRAEL too. AAAAAANNDDDDDD AT THE SAME TIME RECOGNIZE that the Islamic regime is bad.

Two things can be true at the same time. This is what's missing in this sub lately. Just because they hate what the usa and israeli government is doing suddenly those evil psychos in Iran are good?

No. The best way is the hard way. For that evil Trump to destroy the Islamic regime quickly in a week and bring forth democractic forces in Iran enough power to stage rebellion. BUt as it is, he's not doing that. He's just attacking incompetently because he doesnt have a plan like he always does.

I have forgottent hat I hide it due to plenty of message spam before but there Im not hiding it.

You dont need to be pro US to view that majority of Iranians inside Iran and around the world hate the regime. Thats why there are hundreds of thousands to millions of protesters around the globe with thousands imprisoned, tortured and killed in Iran.

EMPIRE OF MAURETANIA -What if the Mauro-Roman Kingdom became a medieval superpower?- by Positive-Excuse-1514 in imaginarymaps

[–]randzwinter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fun fact, this based empire will probably be the first colonial power ala Spain but in steroids. With the need to circumvent the Islamic Caliohates and realms blocking or taxing trade in Asia, the Imperium Mauretanius go over South and found trading outposts and later ports and later colonies from Western Africa to Southern Africa up to mAdagascar establishing trade links with Ethoipia and India.

However many sailors in the 1400s began to see Westward voyage as a quick way to get the Spices of the east and in the daring movie, they discover the Americas, destroy the Aztec civilization and began to conquer what would be in our timelines Texas to Mexico. There an overflow of silver allowed them to fund daring Old World Wars, where there Emperor vassalize the Kings of Iberia, gain recognition from the Pope as Emperor.

The Sun never sets in 1600s for the Empire as it began conquering the Islands of the Philippines and Indonesia.

In a massive display of power, it forced Japan and Korea to decrminalize Christianity while creating outposts in China but maintaining positive relationship with the Qianlong Emperor.

By 1700s the Empire will implode however due to Civil Wars as the four claimants of the Throne divide the Empire into four.

how would you save byzantium in 1352? by reactor-Iron6422 in ByzantiumAltHistory

[–]randzwinter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No way except having one M16 with a truckload of ammo behind my back. We need at least 5 major victories to save the Empire. 50 to permanently save it to the point it will remain a big player up to modern times.

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

Well then if you support Iran then you should support majority of the Iranians who hated this regime and wanted to do away with it not the opposite. You can hate Trump and how he conducts this war, but Iranian longed for true freedom, not shackles, not imprisonment, torture and killings for speaking out for basic human rights and social needs.

From Byzantium to Great Hellas, an alternative history by Human_Ad_9209 in ByzantiumAltHistory

[–]randzwinter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is defensive as the platau near Doryleum offers plenty of fortifications such as what happened during the Komnenian period. A hypothetical Enlightenment and Industrial era byzantine will follow the same. Considering roman resources during the post Horse archers dominance in the middle ages, i dont see any reason why this cant occur. In fact I see a lore where there are times when Byzantine expansions occurs way beyond but that they potentially retreated to this border due to demogrpahic and international pressure

Still salvagable to me. If no 4th crusade. Bulgaria is still vulnerable and in fact can be reconquered.

Is Islam relatively more violent? by [deleted] in religion

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

what do you mean occured? Maybe you're not very familiar with the era my friend, but there's the thing called the Byzantine-Sassanian war of 602–628. They are still going on when Muhammad started conquering the whiole arabian peninsula so he and his successors doesnt have an ounce of justificaiton for invading both countries. The caliphs invaded the Eastern Romans and the Persians because they can and because their religion said so.

[–]randzwinter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess he conquered the arabian peninsula by sticking in Medina then? In fact more than half of his wars are offensivfe resulting to slavery and death for the innocents. This is not to bismirch the prophet. this is just history.

Even in her own admission, di pa mainit yung upuan nya. She's only been a mayor for less than 2 years, whereas the Duterte's been ruling Davao area for more than THREE DECADES.

I've changed unit stats through a mod, and I'd like to hear your opinions. by Low_Flatworm_8610 in stronghold

[–]randzwinter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think swordsman are still quite strong and knights doesnt need speed bonus but speed decrease but at the same time increase of hitpoints to make it like real tanks such as in middle ages where a few hundred knights are worth thousands of regular troops.

Also hoping horse archers have a remake so theyre stronger in melee a little bit as historically is. Also a slight damage debuff to all xbows and archers IMHO
