if we get rid of FF then the war knowers is reduced to Mlmp69 and Monkeylibfront so your choice is then either sardonic analysis where absolutely no inference, intuition or guessing is allowed... or an open screaming portal to the lazerpig dimension

Cerebral Bore posted:the best 40k meta was back when the ork rulebook included like a dozen d100 tables for everything that could go horribly right or horribly wrong any time you tried to do anything whatsoever That sounds really fun. I liked the rule I heard about where your transports could transport however many minis you could get to fit on top of it.

PoontifexMacksimus posted:40K mostly just oscillates between editions rather than substantially improving over time. Now there's a Psychic Phase! Now there's not! Now vehicles have their own subsystems! Now they don't! Now charging into close combat on the first turn is the only viable meta! Now shooting is overpowered! Now every army needs to be built around hero characters with special auras and abilities! how else are you going to force the customer base to buy entirely new armies every edition

I for one am shocked that the ancient Albertan with the First Nations hating wife did some racism. Perhaps his insights on the conflict based on first hand military experience cleaning muskets in the war of 1812 was too tantalising and people looked the other way.

I liked the rule I heard about where your transports could transport however many minis you could get to fit on top of it. iirc you had this one unit of orks who had guns bolted onto their guns who were bolted onto a third gun and every time you fired you rolled how many shots you got off and how many of those shots came from which gun and also whether something went wrong and you did it for every model individually i think the best/worst/most orky result was that your gun fired the maximum amount of shots of all types and they all automatically hit, but it also killed the model holding it

I mean FF admitted to shelling villages and assuming that meant civilians died. That's what militaries do. Any expectation that he would somehow be morally pure is something that only a liberal could believe. The major difference between FF and most troops is he voiced regret at having done so, rather than pride or bloodthirst. That doesn't mean his hands are clean, but it's better than nothing. If we applied a pure moral standard we'd need to kick out every former troop, which is a justifiable position but I don't think that's the stance people are taking here.

China didnt want them back, its not a case of the US didnt want to send them back there directly. Also take a look at what happened with a lot of the detainees (seemingly slipping away from their host countries sometimes with the assistance of the US)

Also take a look at what happened with a lot of the detainees (seemingly slipping away from their host countries sometimes with the assistance of the US) When Tabliban took over Afghanistan, there were a number of Uyghur fighters there, and China didn't want them back either. I know some turned against the Taliban government and bombed a mosque. Haven't heard anything from them ever since.

The Pentagon spokesman was a bit vague at first in this press conference, and so later in the intervew someone came back to ask more explicitly for clarification, which he gave and confirmed Patriot was used to intercept a Kinzhal. He did not confirm which of the two donated Patriot units (US or German) was used for the intercept. Thank you

I think it's silly to purge leftist spaces of troops. The troops benefit from being exposed to a counter-narrative and radicalized. The space benefits from inside knowledge which can be used to further radicalize others.
