The realm rejoices as Paradox Interactive announces the launch of Crusader Kings III, the latest entry in the publisher’s grand strategy role-playing game franchise. Advisors may now jockey for positions of influence and adversaries should save their schemes for another day, because on this day Crusader Kings III can be purchased on Steam, the Paradox Store, and other major online retailers.
A missile commissioned into the Royal Navy would not dare surrender in the face of the enemy. It would explode like a gentleman.Well, let me remind you that the RN used the Exocet on the type 22. Hopefully you're not suggesting that if the type 22 ever fired them they will be trying to surrender.
On the contrary, it takes an incredible amount of courage to fire a torpedo at one's self. Some might argue too much, but I couldn't possibly comment.
You seem to be excluding all other armed forces that also use the Exocet, expecially the one that terrorized the entire British task force with just 5 of those fine French missiles.
If the torpedo is fired at one's self intentionally, your point is true. If not....
Wow, I never know that British gentlemen explode. Care to demonstrate?
As a reader (just looked through this today) and now commenter I think I am allowed to ask why it lapsed when and where it did.
I can understand your surprise. I was surprised by it at the time and I remain so to this day.
A man of taste and discretion.Still on my Watch List
I do want to come back to this, but I know I cannot keep 3 AARs going so I am going to have to get Inevitable Defeat finished before we return to French narrative.The one and only question I'll ask is: will it be updated Butterfly-ly or can we hope to see more French Pipness?
I agree entirely. There are a great many excellent works out there demanding to be read, far too many of them remain stuck on my "to read later" list.
I can actually remember why it lapsed. I was knocking this out while doing overnight tunnel inspections, so my sleep pattern was out of sync with the rest of the world and I had nice runs of free time to write. At a guess I stopped doing the inspections and so had less time to write?As a reader (just looked through this today) and now commenter I think I am allowed to ask why it lapsed when and where it did.
Are we now to discover how far was the fall and whether there was a bounce? And what kind of dystopian current world it is being narrated from?
I think it was something like “the spring of 2023 (or perhaps later), when Inevitable Defeat may (or may not) have finished.”Sorry, that last bit came in broken and stupid. Say again?
No repeats in El Pip AARs. All brand new content, all the time.Sorry, that last bit came in broken and stupid. Say again?
To take a comment from Butterfly, it will certainly be before the next pitch drop. Is that precise enough for you?I think it was something like “the spring of 2023 (or perhaps later), when Inevitable Defeat may (or may not) have finished.”
Artillery RTO: "Did he say repeat?!"No repeats in El Pip AARs. All brand new content, all the time.
That is... in due curse, in the proper juncture, in the fullness of time, when the moment is ripe, when the necessary information has been gathered and the muses oblige...
Well, I did now, so there's that.
STOP! COOKIE TIME
