it’d also be nice to have a game set in the early modern period that’s between the end of the renaissance era and right before the napoleonic era. Like having a game where you get to see the transition from the feudal levy system to the standardization of professional armies to the early adoptation of firearms and the massive shift in war fighting as arquebusiers slowly become normalized leading to the adaptation of the infantry block tactics being the peak of warfare. A game that really makes you understand why european warfare evolved as it did in that period

What if they integrated that one Warhams space ship battle game into the overall game. Hell what if they integrated all the wham games into one creative assembly game so you could go from grand strategy to over the shoulder third person dynasty warriors esque hack and slash game

oh so it might look like dawn of war then, well they had to make that eventual departure from their usual dev style i suppose.

oh hey did Silly French Game win the GOATY

charlie kirk as the emperor of mankind?

British studio Creative Assembly really going all-in on the table top British IP provided by Games Workshop aren’t they.

that said I’m curious how they’ll go about with, i think, their first game that’s not based on warfare from and prior the industrial revolution plus the hocus pocus of the wham fantasty they played with. Like they can’t do dawn of total war hammer, so it’ll be interesting to see what they come up with

Military memorandums have to follow the formulaic manual set forth by the Department of War via respective departments having their own specialized version, to maintain efficiency of communication. i.e the army has (AR) 25-50, the navy has SECNAV M-5216.5, the marines because they’re an appendage of the navy have to follow navy regs those losers lol, airforce got AFM 33-326, and the department of war has, funny enough, the DoD 5110.4-M

That said I’m all for this jackass just absolutely emptying a whole bargeboat of monkey wrenches into the guts of the war machine. I guarantee every intel branch is gonna get absolutely pissed off over the fact the infosec of the DOW is about to get turned into a mesh strainer everyone can fiddle with like never before.

thats the point

nothing wrong with that. only thing wrong is that they all focus on the wrong warfront.

oh boy another head of a wanna-be samurai to collect. please, sir, present your neck.

Lmao going full hog wild and just stomping the pedal is definitely the funnest solution to the issue no doubt. It’s like you almost get to go mudding but within the comfort of your friend’s neighborhood. Only downside is that if it freezes during winter wherever this is at, those ridges and ruts are gonna be absolute hell on your vehicle.

I can’t think of anything either. Every scattered bit of info on actually-existing anarchist projects that I’ve read about have been mentions of experiments conducted in the Soviet Union by anarchists. Insofar as the closest I’ve heard of in the PRC has been the maoist communes.

Ah I hate those situations. Absolute perfect demonstration of hyperindividualism on display.

It makes me wonder if there is an anarchism of the 21st century. Something that actually logically works in theory and could be materially implemented. So at least if I come across another dork that wants anarchism-in-form-primitivism-in-action ism, I could at least point them in a direction for them to learn the most realistically up-to-date materials of their own worldview.

Then again that’s just too far into the weeds even for me, and I’ll just stick with saying “who’s gonna build and maintain the roads”

Ah for the case of Val going back in time to try and overthrow the first hero of humanity, assuming somehow that happened, - assuming best cases happened through out their life - anything they accomplished within their lifetime would be quickly swept away after their death and whatever remnants that remained would too be swept into the dustbin of history as the Akkadians begin their conquest of the region.

I’m sorry but val’s logic for an anarchist society just doesn’t function. No matter what starting point such society begins with - i.e a post-u.s state downfall, a world wide victory, getting in a time machine and telling the Akkadians in Uruk to overthrow Gilgamesh and to immediately construct an anarchist society in the cradle of humanity - that society will simply conduct a great leap backwards.

Logistics networks? You’d go back to struggling to even have a post office.

Infrastructure? Good luck trying to maintain anything more advanced than a dirt road.

Electricity, water, plumbing, waste management? Most likely can’t maintain anything larger than a hamlet.

Val, in concrete terms, isn’t arguing for anarchism, they’re arguing for primitivism.

oh are they purging the boyscouts and girlscouts from the bureau? the proverbially comatose clowns that are the most likely to fully and unironically believe everything positive they’ve been told about the america dream? incredibly funny. not so much so with the slavering beasts of Lamashtu they are going to be replaced with, but that was a question of when and not if.

a party structure with an enforceable line? sounds undemocratic and unsocialist. might as well stay pinned to the donkeys ass then.

well you gotta role the cowling down to see the full head, yeah.
