Fun Fact Friday From Fibertas

Archeologists recently discovered the oldest samples of honey in an ancient tomb in the Egyptian pyramids dating back 3,000 years. The honey is still perfectly edible — sweet!

I have them both but I much prefer CK2. The new EU4 update looks really good though, I never liked the way that Estates worked worked so I'm glad that's changing.

CK3 is so expensive on Steam but I'm definitely going to get it lol.

the 2 Belgorod's are my 2 puppets from another region, due to some issues with the rp (namely unbearable morons) i moved them here temporarily, although i am not sure why Agderia followed me into this region :p

He is also a player from the region we abandoned, not sure if he stays here tho.

And of course, how are you guys doing? been a while

I'm sorry to hear that the RP didn't work out. Wonder how "moronic" they were? Hmm... I did not see anything about Agderia joining our region, but welcome nonetheless.

I'm doing alright. Finally back to work. As far as my nation? We had a small outbreak of coronavirus in parts of the country. It seems to only be affecting our human residents, which only make up less than 2% of the national population, so it's not as bad. We are running experiments to see if it does affect us equines. So...... Since sports are kinda temporarily shut down, we are planning on broadcasting some of ours. List below:

- RHL (Russian Hockey League) Basically the NHL with predominantly Russian/Slavic teams.

-EMLB (Equestrian Major League Baseball) 20 teams instead of the US 30, but the same 182 game schedule.

We might run some football (soccer and US football), NASCAR-style racing, Formula 1 and something else.

I am doing somewhat fine even if i am a bit pissed at the moment, and to explain comrade Ruskov, there were 3 morons.

The RP setting= Modern day world, realistic in nature

these 3= starting wars randomly, all making posts of 6 or less sentences where they magically appeared in lands of others, ignoring rp rules, god modding, controlling stuff in other people's nations without asking, and just to top it off 1 of them declared that he has 50 MILLION TONS OF PLUTONIUM even after several warnings and 2 temporary bans these people continued their moronism.

2 rp mods quit the rp in the same day, as well as agder, the third rp mod thinking that the RP is dead, 3 more people considering quitting as well from what i have been told.

What topped it off was when the guy who pissed off everyone declared that he leaves the rp as well because of and i quote "bad rp and stuff" after which even the founder of the region said that he was the problem XD

Indeed it's correct, I am just staying here temporarily. And I followed my beloved comrade here to A avoid the same type of person that pissed him off, cause frankly they pissed me off too, and B couldn't stay in that region for a second longer.

I see.... A wise choice to bail from that. I shudder at the thought of this bullcrapery. I have pulled some before, but it wasn't entirely "god-modded". Example: I was tasked with sending an army, in medieval times mind, over five hundred miles away to assist an ally. Said army arrived about a week before they *realistically* should have. Naturally, people were upset by my overly fast army, but I agreed to have some desertion, exhaustion, and the inability to fight for five days. This other region on the other hand? They would probably have them there in a few hours and kick the other armies [Censored] without losing a soldier.

While I am saddened to hear that your residency is only temporary, I hope you find a region that truly feels like home. Is everything well in your nation? I can assist with some types of raw materials, technology, and military aid.

**Disclaimer**

[I]Accepting military aid from the Equestrian Motherland is a temporary agreement. The EQM Armed Forces may withdraw at any time depending on the situation. (Example: War was declared by another nation.) Any bases left behind after the campaign will be considered hostile territory to the host until all troops and equipment have been removed from the premises. This is just a precaution due to potential insurgency or anti-Equestrian sentiments by members of the population.[/I]

Come to think of it, I was about to enter a full-out separatist, republican, constitutionalists and pretender rebellions, that was until my civil war was ruined by two other nations' civil war. I had a plan in my head for how the civil war will proceed, but I am not quite sure how I can quite make it fit into this RP region, considering I just arrived. I am however gonna say this, I am an expert in vexillology (the studies of flags), so any of you guys would like me to create a flag for you or would like me to redo a flag fo you, just let me know. :D

Note: I am also a diehard paradox player and absolutely love CK2, I am probably one of the few people that look really forward to CK3 as much as if there would have been a Vic 3.

Good to hear! I do really wish for a Victoria 3 though. I've played 2 to death and I've been watching videos on people's suggestions for Vic3 which are making me miss a game which hasn't even been made/announced lol. But CK2 is my most played game by far.

Interesting. While we do have an official medieval RP going on, we mostly do small bits on the RMB. If something is going on in your nation, write about it as if it's real time. Of course... Don't over post / spam. ^^;

My dear Comrade Tsar, I am pleased to report that one of our finest artists (me ofc) have produced a proposed flag for your Motherland. As you can see we understand that your motherland has a history of horseback riding and we thoughted it would be a perfect motive to put in centre as an emblem for your Motherland. We have also translated Russkov Soviet into Cyrillic and placed on the banner on the emblem. The emblem is held up by two mighty steeds from the Motherland and we also managed to include the year of your great founding. I hope you find it in taste my dear Comrade Tsar and that my attempt was successful. Yours Sincerely, the Emperor of Agderia

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

----------------------------------------------

[I]Due to a massive increase in COVID-19 cases and deaths among the human population, scientists have been working non-stop around the clock to find a potential cure. Officials in Starfleet are still debating on whether to assign staff to researching a cure. Military officials and engineers have also put a rather controversial solution on the table, which is re-creating and introducing the strain of [EQUUS-7] that was dispersed by the former Soviet Union. Discussions and voting is currently ongoing, but human revolutions are popping up across the nation. Equestrian Armed Forces are trying to stop these as peacefully as possible, but it's only a matter of time until things may get violent.[/I]

Given the fact that I actually lost a family member to COVID-19, I will definitely have my nation put it's scientists to work on finding a cure. In our attempts to bring back [EQUUS-7], we have created three potential new strains of the former toxin. Testing is underway on multiple subjects, including the Tsar himself. (If something happens to the Tsar, a back-up ruler is already on hand) Unfortunately, thanks to the universal demands in both the Alpha and Beta quadrants, Starfleet (and by extension the Soviet Armada) will be unavailable to assist Earth.

(I will be unavailable Sunday. Heading to a small funeral for my aunt.)

Hello everyone! I'm afraid I have some sad news to share. Michael Angelis, the longest-serving narrator for our TV series, has died at the age of 68. He narrated our show in the UK dub from 1991 to 2012 (Season 3 to Season 16), and he also narrated one US DVD release (New Friends for Thomas). Our hearts go out to his family and friends, and we thank Mr. Angelis for his long service to our franchise! He will be missed.

Thomas: Well, let's be grateful for the narrators we do still have, and honour the ones we've lost.

Percy: Speaking of honour, once it's safe to do we'll be holding a ceremony celebrating Angelis' life and his role in our franchise. I doubt his family will accept our request to hold the funeral on Sodor, but we do want to do something to honour Michael Angelis.

Does anyone here play Total War Warhammer 2?

And if you do what race/faction do you like the most?

For me its Skaven, cause i have never seen a more meme worthy moment.

The Situation= 1 of my provinces is under siege by the High Elves Order (playing pestillence btw) and i have attacked their second army supporting the siege.... by ambushing them so the elves lost 50% of their army to an ambush made my 18 stack of skaven. 1 turn after that the elves left the siege and tried to run away. Got ambushed again and thus the entire elven army was eradicated without much effort :p

There were also other similar moments where we ambushed the army that was in siege stance. Which now makes me question, due to how the game works if i didnt do auto resolve would we have done a normal ambush? even though they encircled the entire city? or would it break the game? :p

I do indeed, and to answer the question, I generally prefer to play as the Dwarfs. I like dwarfs, so I play dwarfs. While I do enjoy the Warhammer TW, I really and truly loved Shogun 2, that one was a lot of fun for me

Empire was the first Total War game I played, so it holds some nostalgia value for me. But in terms of gameplay, I think Shogun II and Rome II are better. Even if you're looking for line-based gun battles like in Empire/Napoleon, you can find a really good version of it in Shogun II: Fall of the Samurai (which is technically a separate game from Shogun 2, so you don't need the main game to have Fall of the Samurai).

In our attempts to bring back [EQUUS-7], we have created three potential new strains of the former toxin. Testing is underway on multiple subjects, including the Tsar himself. (If something happens to the Tsar, a back-up ruler is already on hand) Unfortunately, thanks to the universal demands in both the Alpha and Beta quadrants, Starfleet (and by extension the Soviet Armada) will be unavailable to assist Earth.

Almost forgot about this. So.... I'd better update.

- We have managed to reproduce the strain of [EQUUS-7] in our laboratory, but a different strain is being worked on as well. The new strain, designated [VXN-8], was an attempt to make the humans more resistant to disease. Instead of an enhanced respiratory system, it ended up causing fox-like mutations. When tried on an Equestrian, like the Tsar, we found that [VXN-8] caused a rapid transmutation and quickly turned the subject from Equine to Vulpine. Debates are underway to decide the use of such a serum.

- Starfleet is still occupied with intergalactic matters.

Not too badly, going to go out with my dog soon for a while since I've been writing and doing stuff on the Comp for most of today. I've settled on using Romulan ships for my more out-there Scifi art. How about you?

Hmmm….. That depends. If your supporting the Tal Shiar, your weapons will be praised for their power and deadliness. (Especially against innocent people who didn't want Tal Shiar "security" on their planet.) If your supporting the Republic, then they should be grateful to have a means to actually go "toe-to-toe" against the Empire.

Lmao, that's true. Though the Tal would probably prefer the Railguns then. That Phaser is an X-ray on technicality, so it doesn't go through atmosphere too well, though the railguns are absent that problem :P

Jolan Tru for D'tan, tbh. The Republic is my favorite faction, and working on the Rommie Ships *does* let me think about the ways to weaponize that Singularity, oWo.

Sounds cool. Nothing too much to report here. I got a new dog recently, and since she's a puppy, I've been spending some time playing with her.

Ah, see we had a minor coup with Peng briefly overthrown. I trust we've thoroughly waterboarded Nurem to ensure he had nothing to do with it.

Not bad. I've graduated uni now. Waiting on my final degree results. Passed all my exams and essays and got a great mark on my dissertation, much higher than I was expecting so pretty buzzed about that.

Starting on the next railgun (history is always written later :P) since I've diverged from my earlier Romulan hull idea. I found some good graphics for Starfleet hulls that basically were all made up for an RPG PDF, some nifty screencapping and they become usable as hull-forms of themselves owo.

Decided on fitting my Fed Hulls with a missile system. These are kinetic missiles for specific cells, but *soon* they'll have more designs. Also integrated three maneuvering thrusters for a couple tasks, since it's not just a military missile but a whole delivery system.

Missile system mostly done. It's a chunky boy but I do have longer (and longer-range) missiles for my specialty ships. I've decided to split my ships among Standard Fleets (Ships of the Line, Battle Response Groups and the like) and Special Purpose Fleets that have more advanced munitions.

And my Battlecrusier some-what approaching completion owo!

The "shield" is only effective against energy weapons, since it harvests some of the impacting energy into internal Phazite capacitors (which cap off just below explosive energy capacity at 80%) and the rest of it basically becomes either system heat or the weakened laser on the hull. The equipment is going to be more compact coilguns and larger missiles with a much heavier payload than the Talisman below/above.

E: Well, the ship is mostly done now aside from the history. I also plan to retrofit my shielding method to lighter vessels, though they carry much less Phazite for that purpose.
