I always figured the reason was that it was basically the American Revolution in Space. And that's why it was so popular (esp with Americans).

Is Rome 2 really that bad? Not as bad as deliberately inciting rebellion in your own cities and then exterminating the populace with a couple of full stacks of urban cohorts. I would do that and then...
Background: So my gf coaxed me into buying this game weeks ago and I finally gave it a shot. At first I was hopeless but after several hours of gameplay I managed to get past the worst of the...
I would have concentrated on the Caucasus in Operation Barbarossa and then set up defense in depth along the eastern front (basically ignore Moscow, Leningrad and even Stalingrad, instead focus on...
They already drones, lacking individuality. All saying the same party line.... " :wub: affirmative action. Oppression doesn't exist. Sexism doesn't exist. Racism doesn't exist. Homphobia doesn't...
I am surprised that Britain is oft forgotten in ME imperialist rhetoric considering their part in causing the mess (ie WW1).
Sure... but only if you Lenin me a hand with my next semester. :P
So I got my marks back for last semester...
All distinctions. :D :D :D
I stand corrected. The point still stands though.
If the majority of Prince readers today interpret it as a manual rather than a warning then why not in the middle ages when satire was practically unheard of? It's not the first time a writer has...
There are ways to avoid burning so much fuel. A space elevator (v. expensive). Using the Interplanetary Transport Network (takes effin ages though). But yes the solutions are equally impractical. For...
Just before the nazi's started gassing Jews, they were controlling/restricting their immigration and making them carry papers.
so yeaaaah Deja vu anyone?
Anyway. All Abrahamic religions are...
They had a couple. Enough to obliterate a few cities. Not enough to glass the entire planet. The Korean War was just after World War 1. At the beginning of the conflict I think only the US had nukes...
Is the space inside a blackhole finite?
Anyway I think the question relies on a priori that space can exist by itself. I wold argue that that is not the case. Space and time are inseparable. If...
That was before every man and his dog had nukes. just FYI.
I bought Napoleon.
Without a doubt we live in a simulation, I mean think about it, why is causality limited at 3x10^6m/s? Why such an arbitrary speed limit? Surely if the universe was not a simulation there wouldn't...
An essay about a building? Really? Omg that does sound boring.
@Windows 10 I'm going to wait a few more months to upgrade. Just so they can iron out more bugs/issues.
So guess who finished her exams? I did. It feels gooooooooood. I have a few months of...
That's what happens when you use American advertising agencies. Even if the actor is native the copywriters are not and they get our vernacular wrong.

They are called PRAWNS. P-R-A-W-N. got it? And we don't put them on the barbie. The barbie is for steaks and snags only, maybe rissoles too but definitely not mothoeffing prawns. ffs.
A little birdie told me that Russia has been bombing FSA not ISIS (well they have, just not very much lol). Primary source is ISP I think?
It makes sense, Russia supports the Assad regime for the...
A healthy democracy is kept that way through checks and balances. Think separation of powers.
If the mob is skeptical of powerful institution then it acts as a check against the power of those...
No doubt, France will respond will greater military commitments to Syria and the middle east. And so the cycle continues. The west interferes with the middle east, thus driving muslim moderates there...
So it's just another buggy mess then?
*sigh*
That's a shame. So what's the Institute like? does MIT live up to its rep in the post apocalypse ?
That's what I meant. Sorry, Freudian slip.
It's not evasive. I know what you call LGBT feminism is different from my experience of it. You probably see it as monolithic, it's not; everyone has...
It's harder to do though. Other methods require much more effort and hence the party is likely to cool off before the deed is done.
It's personal. PM me if you like. And yes I would honor the political alliance that is LGBT.
Minorities should be represented by themselves, they should be given the platform to speak as they...
I would have preferred that Caesar's Legion was based in Caesar's Palace in Vegas. XD
Then you clearly misunderstood what I said. Because it is not my stance at all.
The key words here are "inclination" and "feel". They mean I am referring to how I feel on the matter not what I...
Because Jealosy. That's why.
Slightly off topic: I have been in a triad before (all girl) and it was :wub:. I felt ganged up on halve the time. I was working and they weren't which meant they...
Guess what? You just made a generalization; collectivizing a large swathe of people.
Strawman.
@Pasan Romans are overused in media. That's it. If they had say Scythian expys or Han Dynasty expy's, basically something I see in media less then I would be content.
I actually liked the fantasy...
Really? I hadn't noticed.
I don't think the black market for guns works the same way as for drugs. For one, drugs are much more addictive (lol). But drugs mostly affect the user rather than...
In Africa there are 26 nations where homosexuality is illegal. Ergo as fair as generalizations go, mine is a fair one to make.
Which is why you should stay out of this discussion. You will...
So in your clan panel, there is a bar that measures your fame, you want to take as many provinces as you can without completely filling it up. That will stave off the Realm Divide while you...
My biggest gripe is the Roman Empire expys. It's bad enough that they included them in Skyrim, but it's terribly uncreative that they used them in New Vegas too.
I really enjoy playing the games...
As interested as I am in Bethesda's RPG's ( I play a lot of both TES and Fallout), I am plenty of toys to occupy myself for the time being. Namely starcraft. I've been binge playing it in between...
Death penalty.
That's what you get for being homosexual in some places (I looked up Uganda apparently it's ONLY 14 years imprisonment now, that's still :wub:ed though and it's incredibly :wub:ed...
How would you feel if African governments started singling out white men and executing them? How would you feel knowing that for them it is the most normal thing ever to commit genocide against ppl...
