The last panel killed me.
Indeed, the last panel's a killer!
This is tremendous. I have no doubt that we will all be wondering the true significance of the crabs. Is Dalip the crab, hemmed in and restricted by the shell of constitutional restriction? Is India the crab, protected by the wise expansion of her Panjabi rulers? Am I lightheaded from reading this, or just because its two in the morning and I'm binging on tea?
Yes, quite. Philosophy itself may be viewed as a crab… somehow.Ah, philosophy, quite.
You are most likely having a deja vu the size of the moon!Did you already use the last panel once, or am I having a deja vu the size of the moon?
That’s the great thing about using as few words with as vague a meaning as possible!How can so few words carry so much meaning? I keep re-reading your last update and each time I come away with a different interpretation. I think you just blew my mind.
Hum, Dalip starts immersed in a green liquid ... OFC that is water
Anyway, I still maintain that Dalip should cut his absinthe and use something safer ... say , like good ol'opium It would help the Indian economy and all
We will fight them with their own weapons… or something along those lines! Besides, China takes care to absorb all of Punjab’s excess opium.Dalip! Don't you know that absinthe is a weapon of the Western Imperialists?
Thank you!brilliant just read teh whole thing!
Thanks, the vacation is going great, so far! I’ll try to prepare a page at some point, but it’s not very convenient for me here.I hope you have a good vacation, but I'll miss seeing your updates
Heh, nah it’s been great so far. Thus the lack of updates…I hope your vacation sucks just so you will need to edit this forum to stop the boredom from setting in. ;-)
joking, joking, of course. Enjoy the R and R.
Thanks!Have a good holiday

This AAR is dead :/
No! Don't say those things!
Not dead, just resting in the shade, catching an August breeze in the countryside very near Olympia.Nonsense. He's on vacation.
No research has yet been conducted in naval techs, but it will be a necessity at some point. Great Britain is running out of land-locked colonies in India, and once I start liberating coastal areas they will be able to blockade them, thus hurting my warscore incrementally. The trouble is that Panjab/India is technologically backwards as it is, so I doubt I’ll be able to afford enough naval research to match the British. I’ll have to depend on massive local numerical superiority, sweeping their blockading fleets and running away should they decide to send a big fleet after me.Just a question for when you get back, but is there any chance of developing an Indian navy to keep the British at bay?
Heh, when Dalip took the throne he was the inexperienced youngster. Now he's the ageing statesman and his new prospective PM is the one needing all the guidance.
Reversal of power dynamics too, seeing as Gunkaar will probably have most of the power in the constitutional monarchy, with Dalip probably stepping into an advisory role.
Also, is that a smirk or a grimace on Dalips face in the last panel?
