Pretty much. Though to be honest, this fic is getting me into going back into nBSG... especially since Deadlock exists...

To be honest, the Terrans and Zentradi don't want to paraphrase another Robotech/nBSG fic, 'the guys to dispose of someone else's windup soldiers.'

To be honest, APCs are going to be used for 2nd-line/garrison troops in the future, at best.

From my understanding, it's basically just barely audible motifs and whatnot, and outside of putting the songs into the material realm, only the force-sensitive can hear them. Funnily enough, Rebels made affinities a thing again... and having Anakin having affinities is so many things that are...

So, one of the Disney books revealed that force-sensitive beings can hear faint songs in the background... it would be interesting to have Jedi dabble into something similar to Ar Tonelico's Hymmnos... ... for those who never heard the series (hell, I only found out because a Homeworld 2 mod...

... here's the rub on the 'disappearance of the middle class in the US': Automation. It should be noted that by 1987, automation started to displace more jobs than it replaced, and the jobs that it was first applied to tended to be jobs that were widely considered 'middle class', things like...

Another problem that the Boomers have caused is that a good majority of them would rather burn the place down than have things change, which is why they would rather vote for someone like Trump than anyone remotely sane. In essence, a good portion of the Boomers are acting like this: They...

No, it doesn't, it's the opposite that is ripe with abuse... and we're seeing it now with education and police.

To be honest, we're going to need to centralize (and thus standardize) the police forces in the US, and on the double. No more of this 'dozens upon dozens of fiefdoms' nonsense. At gunpoint if need be.

... well, at least it isn't like a version of GDI that I've been working on... let's just say the ancient and dread-inducing phrase "RAISE THE RED FLAG" gets uttered and leave it at that...

Funnily enough, the same situation that led to the development of the BMP-3 led to the development of the COMVAT program, which used a 45mm gun using telescopic case ammunition instead of conventional case (which means that it can take up the space of a round of a far smaller caliber). ...

That heavily depends on the map, but the maps I've used always had 4 near your base but never anything like 50. Funnily enough, I'm working on a GURPS Empire Earth setting...

It, surprisingly enough, provided the groundwork for World in Conflict (Ground Control is their first entry into the RTT Genre; they're kind of the guys that created the genre); you see a lot of WiC's systems in GC2 in a less-refined form. Also, it's one of the few settings where you can play...

The thing is it's less a 'college education is worthless' and more 'trying to kill the Vocational Education System is bad' than anything. That and people back in the early 2000s didn't expect the automation revolution to hit full stride by the mid-20teens.

That's largely because Russia's pawns (for the US, the GOP; for Germany, the Neo-Nazis; the like) are gumming up the works.
