Let's assume that's true (I don't necessarily think it is), wouldn't you like Ukraine to fight off Russia, join the eu and NAT0, providing 40 million people to strengthen both? Also, regarding your...

I wasn't aware of the this bug or the ship bug when I did that. TBH I haven't played any total war games in quite a long time. EUIV is far superior, or even CK2. I can't remember exactly but I'm...

I think you could take the entire M2TW map in under 20 turns with minimal diplomacy. You have to bear in mind that some of the exploits are really extreme and the main limiting factor is getting an...

I have no idea, but I can beat the main campaign in M2TW in 8 turns and totalwarlegend can conquer the entire map in 12 turns.

Well, I have not been on the forums for a long long time but it's great to see fkizz up to his old tricks, good on you buddy?

I do have one question to those who reply to him, wouldn't you rather...

Regarding the rtw blitzes, I believe some guy did a blitz with the greek cities, not sure what his blitz constituted however, I believe it was just finishing the game. Something like 22 turns, seems...

I had no issues with performance or crashing, I only played it for a month and went straight back to paradox games. It lacks depth, all the factions feel the same, battles are very samey. There could...

Nothing, I won't buy another TW game, all hail Paradox! :worship:

Depends on whether you are looking at fiscal balance or just the budget. According to GERs in 05-06, 06-07, 07-08 and 08-09 Public spending was lower than revenues raised.

Funnily enough, you've actually used the wrong numbers and made Scotland look better this year than it in fact was. That year Scotland had a worse financial position than the UK as a whole, Scotland...

Scotland is the only part with a deficit? This is going to be an ongoing narrative I feel, we've had lots of, "The Scots take all our money." Without looking who exactly in the UK is in debt and...

Yes voters being assaulted in George Square.

From BBC live feed:

"

Ed Miliband signals that he will not sign up to the prime minister's plan to give more power to the Scottish Parliament at the same time as trying to agree new powers for...

Scots =/= Alex Salmond

A guy in the comments hit the nail on the head:

"It's called 'phishing' I believe; it's an online survey so more of the people who respond will be in the affirmative.

Its called a leading...

Isn't that headline about a pro independence group being attacked? I fail to see how either campaign is worse.



Nice strawman, we will obviously have to make cuts. Again you seem to be...

What's the legal basis for forcing Scotland out of the EU post Yes?

I hate to tu quoque but Yes voters have been accused of being rabid mobs and the leaders of the Yes campaign have been compared to Stalin, Mugabe etc.

What? This is nonsense, I live in Edinburgh.



Amazing, when Scotland's budget is reduced by Westminster, cuts are made.



Editing out someone's response and then claiming he didn't answer...

Another cheap tactic from the No campaign, a couple of people shout at him and they're a foaming mob and Salmond is like Mugabe. Yes voters helped tack down the guy who egged Murphy (The only...

Delayed cuts? You mean they will have to cut £400 million in the event of a No vote as well?

In other news, Tory MPs are lining up to say they won't grant Scotland extra powers.

EDIT: Here is...

Scotland's GDP is £150Bn so not quite sure where these percentages come from. I have closer to 33%, but there's more.

Also, Scotland cannot raise sell bonds to get rid of their debt, this is how...

I think people are confused here. Where have I said this is not about nationalism? I'm not trying to claim I am not a nationalist. Secondly, I was saying that I do not think that being Scottish is a...

I disagree.



Quite obviously yes, as I have just pointed out, the majority party in England is always the same as in Westminster, you can quibble about FPTP but under the rules England does...

You forget that in every single one of these elections the largest party in England was also the largest party at Westminster. Comparing Scotland to a region of England does nothing to help your...

He'll have to source that however.

If people do want rid of the tories (I am not among them funnily enough) what other way do you suggest? Consider that Scottish votes have only changed the party...

Is that you David? I think you said that yesterday.

"UK corporation tax applies to profits created from economic activities located in the UK. Where firms operate in more than one part of the UK, it is difficult to know how much of their profits are...

The professor from LSE on Newsnight has just said that all these "Scottish" banking institutions are already not in effect based in Scotland.

EDIT: He's just reiterated that it will just be a...

If the headquarters are always moving to London why then was Google's headquarters in Ireland? Could Scotland not do something similar?

I am watching Newsnight as well, they said they would move brass plaques, but have not said what operations would be moving. Not saying that moving the headquarters is not a big deal, but I don't...

You'll notice that the field is around 50 miles west of Shetland which is a larger number than 12.

I'd be amazed if the Shetlanders voted to leave an independent Scotland, they would be of course...

It's a shame you are wrong in every single respect. There is no support for this from Shetlanders, if they demand it they are more than welcome to have a referendum but I don't think they will ask...

Or, maybe they are also worried about other factors, such as what happens to the pound if Scotland becomes independent and is denied a currency union.

In other news, can we be certain that the UK...

The third labour victory was a majority of 66, Scotland sent 59 MPs to Westminster that year. Interestingly you are correct about the 2010 election and that was only the third time since WW2 that...

You have literally no idea what you are talking about. In every election since WW2 the largest party at Westminster was also the largest party in England. The last 3 labour governments all had...

It's amazing to me that you think this is a good thing. All it shows is that they didn't actually want to offer us any more powers and it took the very real possibility of Scotland leaving the union...

Got to agree with Azog here, new powers for Scotland will be risible.

Also there will be a backlash from England.

Will the politicians sway to public pressure to bring Scottish spending per...

If the NHS is privatised in England then the budget for the NHS provided by the government will be reduced along with the budget provided to Scotland for NHS services. So Scotland should be able to...

I've never really got irony. Are English Yes voters anglophobic?

Catch you all in a bit, I've got to go into regeneration and receive my orders from the Salmond collective.

Toodles!
