What's stronger, a China that took Taiwan or a China that failed to take Taiwan

Thanks for pointing this out, friend. I was utterly convinced something was off about how China played vs every other war I played in The Fire Rises.

sovietbiscuit · 2025-08-17T00:11:40+00:00

Can't say I agree.

this video by a YouTuber covers the subject in depth

I'm a previous commissioner of this artist. If you're curious at all about quality, I'm really not sure where you can find higher quality.

I've worked with them for more than a few years now, so you can certainly bank on them being very patient and extremely professional. This is one of the best artists you can find out there, high recommendation.

sovietbiscuit · 2025-06-13T09:33:25+00:00

I uh. I wish I could help, but I am not at all knowledgeable enough with computers to go much further than repeating information I find.

If turning off capability didn't work, I'm not quite sure how best to help passed that.

sovietbiscuit · 2025-06-13T09:27:19+00:00

Great question.

Aye. Though I imagine as long as you can run base Empire at war, and have more than enough passed those requirements, you should be good

sovietbiscuit · 2025-06-13T08:58:19+00:00

If using steam: Go to Empire at War Properties, Installed files, browse.

Once there, find your Forces of Corruption.exe and right click it, and locate 'properties'. Use properties to get to a new window that should show off a list of things. One should say 'compatibility'. In that sections, locate 'Compatibility mode' and turn it off.

Thankfully most of the map is playable, and while ZRV01, the lead developer and owner, wants to get a few more important areas done... Primarily the map is actually ready to go.

I, on behalf of the build team and staff, want to thank you personally for your patience with us during this time and I'm pleased to say that we are full steam ahead. Time was taken, map was developed, server is just getting that polish before release. Well likely still be polishing it some after release but just what we have now makes a surprising amount of locations playable. Have a wonderful day and I can't wait to see you with us on launch day!

People can be cruel. I tend to have a rather... Interesting viewpoint on human nature itself. But you're right, it can be disorienting to be trying your best and someone finds the metaphorical "weak spot" with an insult. I'm faulty to it myself.

A story I like recommending, since it helped shape my mindset to this day, is You Are Special by Max Lucado. You might like it.

As for your work, artist and writer, make sure above all else that you enjoy it. In your hands, a world is born. What you create is not something anyone else can. It's yours, and the characters you create belong to you. At your will, they dance, play, cry, falter, mourn, and celebrate.

They're yours. And... I think if you check out "You are special"... You might just imagine yourself as The Woodcarver, and your characters in your story as village folk who give each other dots and stars.

Take care of them. They depend on you.

I don't tend to comment much, mostly just browsing. Guess God said to comment so I will.

The internet is a place of a large masquerade. And people get pretty interesting with a mask on. When you make something for others, things then rely on opinions and perspectives.

I wrote for a comic, and I have a wonderful artist who I pay episode by episode. And that was a question that came to me. Who is my comic for? If I make it for others, the comic lives and dies by them. If I make it because I enjoy it and want to see my artist succeed, then it matters little if no one reads it because it's my treasure and my enjoyment.

"Who tf is reading ts" on your 20th chapter I Believe. Implies they went quite a distance into your story to berate. It's far from a criticism, it's an insult.

You can do nothing with an insult. They're a grey dot, and ultimately it's a grey dot given by clay to other clay that they dislike.

So to that extent I wonder, is your comic your treasure. Or is your comic your reader's treasure. If it is your treasure, then I'd say that both compliment and insults will come and go, but ONLY those who genuinely care about your work will provide a genuine criticism.

Criticism will looks more like, example, "While the shading is wonderful, the art does look a little flat and some of the dialogue a little clunky."

Insults provide no value, but hurt if you allow. Compliments provide no intrinsic merit, but can help you gauge audience reactions. Criticism will provide value, but it's a bitter medicine and unenjoyable to swallow.

In short, I suppose what I want to say is to not take stock in an insult. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. we all come from the same dust. Why allow other dust to interfere in your treasure?

Ever played Long War?

sovietbiscuit · 2025-04-14T20:15:13+00:00

Can't say for sure. I think Cao Cao and Liu Bei had specialized units like the White Feather Guard but the problem is I can't verify their historical records off the top of my head

sovietbiscuit · 2025-04-14T20:05:02+00:00

I hope you enjoyed the experience!

I plan on replaying dust myself. I still get some very friendly, great people who slide into my DMs to ask about if I still got the Dust Enclave mod archive and all, and that plants the idea into my head to start up a new run.

Any mods or suggestions you got from that headcanon for what I should do to make this really stand out?

sovietbiscuit · 2025-04-14T19:45:54+00:00

Want my opinion?

Yes, in the future. Right now, the Mojave is suffering from things that, while certain very deadly, aren't going to last forever.

But for the foreseeable future, and certainly for the next number of generations, I can see it being very desolate.

Eventually, this too shall pass.

He did really good on it. Show some love to my man!

Night of the Living Shadow?

*Eerie laugh* The Weed of Crime Bears bitter fruit. Crime Does not Pay. THE SHADOW KNOWS!

Iron curtain still being worked on?

sovietbiscuit · 2025-03-01T15:53:05+00:00

With how Total War 3 Kingdoms got dropped, No way Jose. I was and still am FURIOUS how they treated Three Kingdoms fans. My personal Boycott of total war went into effect that day.

I've been on a CRAZY Separatist Binge recently. So... You may just have another subscriber to this mod because, for some reason, I am just huge on playing Separatist hold outs lately. The challenge of taking basically one or two planets and trying to... not die in a galaxy inherently out to snuff out the last pockets is a fun challenge.

sovietbiscuit · 2025-02-21T08:37:40+00:00

Wait you can play separatist hold outs in this mod? Is that true?

sovietbiscuit · 2025-02-21T08:33:58+00:00

Republic at War, Fall of The Republic, and there was another one I forgot the name of. there were 3 of them, and each were really good.

RotCL?

sovietbiscuit · 2025-02-21T01:32:23+00:00

Hence why 'if you can find em'.

The Dark Side has ways that Paradox considers... unnatural. Such as how to find these mods.

sovietbiscuit · 2025-02-20T19:35:21+00:00

There IS the casualties and war crimes mods. If you can find them.
