I don't mind it so much really. I'm less a fan of the shattered army recovering morale while getting a "speed" boost between provinces. Seems reasonable to me that a speed boost while morale is low (to simulate panicked retreat) while getting slower as they get more disciplined or something would make more sense.

If you chase them you get an army with more morale that you can lay into some more, as opposed to maybe a day of fighting, the pursuit on the battlefield and then following them to the next province to repeat until they're wiped out.

It makes the focus of war more on holding territory as an aggressor, and holding off attackers as a defender (unless you cheese it and siege the attackers territory) rather than wiping stacks, which also makes sense to me.

Meanwhile, in the southern hemisphere, I am enjoying the wondrous feeling of three months above 40C (and more often than not near the 50C mark). That's a season of temperatures between 104F and 122F for you eaglemen out there.

In meantime in Poland we barely get any snow. Fucking sucks. I want more snow.
I'd like to buy this mythic "snow" you speak of.

You have mountains*, get your own snow :P

Can't be sacrificing our own supply for all you foreigners**, are our jobs and women and [insert something ridiculous here] not enough!?

*probably, Brazil's a big country :))

Fakeedit:** just realized I'm actually one of those foreigners, don't let people know.

Red Cross did very recently say that the state of hospitals in England is a humanitarian crisis.

Hide under the box. If he comes around the corner, pop out and do a Double Underhook WTF Was That?! Scott Steiner style. It probably won't do much, so then proceed to either put your gun to his head, or stealthily curbstomp him.

+1 to box hiding, though my preference would be to tranquilise so as not to draw the attention of anybody else.

At this point I think it would probably be nice to know: how long the tranq effect will last..?

It's not that great. It kinda sits in a dull area between sweet flavour and sour flavour that eliminates what's good about both :P

Having grown up in the U.K., the suffix "-ade" meant sweet and fizzy flavored soda.

If America calls freshly squeezed lemon juice lemonade, why is orange juice not known as orangeade?

The method the states use, does not change who is actually holding the reigns.

That makes no sense.

Trump won the EC, while Clinton won the popular vote. I mean... from both sides of the argument (who does the electing and who wins the election) that's nonsense.

@ More States

honestly, i have no idea. all i can think of is 'oh god if the number isn't even, the flag'll look horrible.' :P

Probably not good for 51 or 53.

The former is only divisible by 3 and 17 and the latter's prime.

I guess it means you get to have a new flag competition like New Zealand did recently...

Excellent. Sensationalist journalism, ftw.

If slate is representative of dems can we say breitbart is representative of republicans?

I have a similar problem with the Indians and Sunnis (the pissing Caliph, no less) in my Zoroastrian game. They have more or less the same number of troops as I can muster, and the most recent one they tried to gang up on me by declaring war simultaneously, as well as some adventurer dude I forgot about. I have beaten the Indians twice and the Caliph three times, while having taken two or three counties from the Caliph when he's otherwise distracted.

It's also the first game I've played in which I've actually seen an Indian kingdom actually get out of India. I wish they wouldn't though, they have bits of the Persian Empire I need :(

In saying that, I just got subjugated by the Mongols. Thought it would be worse than it is - evidently an immediate surrender is not welcome - but I still have all my titles and I need to pay them a bit of cash now, but... I think otherwise it's the same. I can continue my expansion 'til I need to become independent again, I guess.

You can also lose it with the War focus, assuming you have WoL.

Dull is a bastard, though.

Which I guess leads into:

Do you guys choose a particular life focus (struggle, thrift, pride etc.) for your children when you want them get a particular education focus (Midas-touched, grey eminence, brilliant strategist etc.) later?

Surely that's still be a problem regardless of who's allowed to use the bathroom?
The hell kinda logic is that, of course it's still a problem

Well it appeared you were using it as an argument against unisex/trans bathrooms, but evidently not :P

Are you actually 100% comfortable having a conversation with a guy in the urinal next to you?

I'm curious what your point is here.

The strawman is strong with this one.
