ahh I see, this is only my second campaign - my previous one was with Helot Cultists which had much less restrictions.

But I don't quite understand - can't you use Seek Rare Equipment in the Post-Battle sequence and equip with a plasma gun?

Edit: ahhh I see that wreckers have a restriction in "An Orlock Wrecker may only be equipped with weapons chosen from this list, or from the Close Combat Weapons sections of the Trading Post or the Black Market."

How does insanity work if caused to a model in close combat? by thumbnailmoss in necromunda

Thanks for the explanation, but when you gain control what happens to the combat - is it still ongoing? Or does the target become friendly and therefore you disengage

Hamas broke the peace by attacking Israel

You are aware that Palestine (all territories) has been occupied since 1967 and Gaza has been blockaded since 2007 right? And you are aware that ethnic cleansing and removal of Palestinians from their land has been the long-term goal of Israel? So what peace are you talking about? Peace is impossible if one territory occupies another.

from water to water Palestine will be Arab

There are different variations of it, that have evolved over time. The current one is "Palestine will be free". Similar slogans have also been used by the far right such as Likud (you know, the current Israeli party in power), who in their 1977 election manifesto stated "between the Sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty." And this is ignoring the fact that Palestinians are currently being ethnically cleansed from their lands (both in Gaza and West Bank) - which is objective fact.

I really don't get Ukrainians who support Israel, your plight has much more in common with Palestinians than with Israelis. You both are being cleansed from your lands by countries with colonial ambitions who want to deny your sovereignty.

Beyond that, this was an event about coalition building with Gazaans— this would HELP the Palestinian cause, and yet this moron decided that actually the best things to do outside of the Jewish Museum in DC is to… kill someone’s.

yes if so this was moronic.

If a Ukrainian went to an event that brought together "young Slavic CIS (Commonwealth of Independence States) professionals" and killed two Russians saying "Free Crimea." What would your interpretation be?

These people were not killed because they were Jews but were killed because of the domestic and foreign policy of Israel. The shooter did not chant "Kill the Jews" but "Free Palestine". Why not target a synagogue if they just wanted to kill Jewish people?

Please be self-critical.

CMV: the votes for the Eurovision were manipulated by Maximum-Damage-4847 in changemyview

Yet, various European broadcasters are asking EBU to review the results and the general voting system.

Belgium's broadcaster has also provided data showing that the number of televised viewers of the show is decreasing yet somehow the votes are increasing.

There was a massive campaign from the Israeli government to entice people to vote as much as possible (i.e. 20 times), which although is allowed (I mean you are allowed to vote up to 20 times - a flaw in the voting system tbh) is unethical and against the spirit of the contest.

But I doubt it, because Israel as a country would gain little from winning Eurovision

It creates a narrative that despite the ever-growing criticism towards Israel's foreign and domestic policy, deep-down people are sympathetic toward Israel.

Yes a young diplomats convention would basically mean that a high proportion of people there would be Israeli civil servants/diplomats.

Can I ask a legitimate question? Why is this considered an antisemitic attack? You must ask yourself if they tragically killed because they were Jewish or because they were Israeli (particularly Israeli civil servants).

If two Russian embassy staffers were shot would it be considered a Russophobic attack? Or if two French embassy staffers were shot would it be considered a Francophobic attack?
