    What-If: WW2 Stalemate World

    I want to preface this with please let's go with the spirit of the question. Answers like "That's impossible, couldn't happen." are not constructive here. I'm working on a story idea and I need this to happen. This thread really isn't so much about *HOW* it happens. It's about what the world...

    Warhammer Warhammer General discussion thread: Now with 100% more Space Marines

    I've been priced out of 40k models... not anymore. Might pick up a few, try them out.

    The Big Three Space Science Fiction Franchises Discussion

    I know about it. I know the story is good. I just wasn't a fan when it was being aired originally, and trying to go back and watch it is painful. It did not age well. I tried really hard to get into B5 but I can't get past the presentation. I'm not sure there IS a "Big Three" anymore. We're...

    Warhammer Warhammer General discussion thread: Now with 100% more Space Marines

    There's a part of me that has always wanted Chaos to be a bit more of an... Anti-Imperium. Of course all of the evil, torturous demonic shit happens but... hell some of that happens in the Imperium, too like throwing a thousand souls a day at the Golden Throne and servitors and what not. But...

    The Big Three Space Science Fiction Franchises Discussion

    There is a certain... something that some works have over others to launch them more into the geek fandom zeitgeist. Yeah, we all like Dune, Foundation, Culture, etc. But... we don't build huge fandoms around them. Exactly WHAT it takes? It's partially lowest common denominator. Yes, TV, films...

    Warhammer Warhammer General discussion thread: Now with 100% more Space Marines

    I'm sure that happens too but like, are there no... otherwise normal worlds that Chaos occupies? Like something with an actualish government that runs day to day operations of a planet?

    Warhammer Warhammer General discussion thread: Now with 100% more Space Marines

    Been on a Warhammer kick as of late. Kinda-sorta new to it, at least in any sort of deep dive. I've known the broad strokes for a long time, but this is the first time i'm really digging into the lore beyond most of just the surface level stuff. I had a question though. What goes on a Chaos...

    Loki gave them a nice "end" to Kang anyway. It COULD keep going, or it could just be over. Just let be over. Bring in Dr. Doom. Plenty of time to get him established and built up.

    PC Gaming General Total War Thread

    Three Kingdoms was closer, but I think there's alot of people who just really don't about the region/period. Myself included. I just... don't really care about China. Full Bronze Age Total War would have been awesome. They could probably "maintenance mode" it and be fine. It's a complete...

    That is factually incorrect. He did not.

    PC Gaming General Total War Thread

    These feel like they contadictatory. Everyone loves Total War Warhammer. It's just the... other stuff they have been doing hasn't been outstanding. To be completely honest, they're trying too hard. They have the recipe, and they have all the ingredients. But CA seems intent on not following...

    Battlestar Galactica

    I'm basing everything from the show creators assertion that it's not a clear cut thing. If the Cylons are AI and not just... drones, even if the evil oligarchs ordered the RTF to be destroyed... why would they comply? I suppose it could be interesting if the Colonial Oligarchs are basically...

    Trump Investigations Thread

    Yes, but your understanding of it is askew. Context is the key, to damn near everything. Case law is... case law. Precedent does matter when it comes to verdicts of cases. Precedent doesn't really apply when it comes to if a prosecutor decides to prosecute or not. They're looking at the case...

    Sure, but it seems like it's make the Cylons almost entirely a non-threat.

    Star Trek The General Star Trek Thread - From TOS to Corporate Schenanigans

    Trek is just fairly rational. Although in all fairness, the episode does suggest that the real reason for there being so many in prison is racism, so...

    Trump Investigations Thread

    One is innocent until proven guilty. If they were no proven guilty by a jury of their peers, the accused did not commit that crime in the eyes of the law. If prosecutors don't prosecute, it is assumed there is not enough evidence to warrant a trial. As it stands now, going by this logic and...

    Trump Investigations Thread

    So if one person gets away with something, everyone needs to get away with it. And that's not true at all. Trump is being held accountable. So are Rudy Giuliani, Tom Barrack, Elliot Brody, Michael Cohen, Michael Flynn, Rick Gates, Paul Manafort, George Nader, George Papadaopolous, Roger Stone...

    Trump Investigations Thread

    Rather, he's probably going to lose his legal cases because he's just so incredibly, obviously guilty with very little in the way of any reasonable defense to his actions. It's sad that the "Law and Order" President and his followers see... applying law and order as "biased". This is exactly...

    Yes, but Congress also has power over national security matters. Such power does not rest solely with the Executive. The REAL issue at hand is that everything related to classification is... theoretical? The Constitution doesn't say anything about classification of information because... it...
