@Steal_your_shit If you want an effective option: for the price of 1 Timber Wolf, you could have 22 Yellow Yacket Gunships. That's 22 flying gauss rifles that are faster than the timby, harder to hit, and each has enough armor that every location except the rear can eat a gauss or clan ppc shot.

On my first playthrough, the moment I first saw the Two Fingers was the moment I realized that Varre telling me to "seek audience with the two fingers in the inner chamber" was not, in fact, an elaborate way of saying "go fuck yourself"

[ELDEN W33B @thebestofwalker]

@Maliykus Seeing the two fingers for the first time was wild to me.

Also to get to Altus Plateau my first run, I was lucky enough to take that winding cliff in the north of lunaria. Was like a mini dungeon to get to the top

Otherwise you picked some solid ass moments 👍🏼

@DrAllyLouks Interestingly, "smake" is also the Norwegian word for "taste", from old Norse "smakkr" which could be used for either smell or taste

@TheIshikawaRin For the record, I'm playing on 60% funds rewards and 20% science rewards. Still no money problems.

[Miriam 🏳️‍⚧️🇳🇴 @Optimushroom1]

@TheIshikawaRin I got like 15 free kerbonauts from rescue missions, and you literally get paid to go fetch them. Never hired anyone. And you can do rescues at the same time as tourism missions. Soon as you unlock the 2.5 meter command pod and passenger module, it's free money time

I think the funniest part of this is learning that the Germans are really out here naming their ships "My Ship 4" and "My Ship 5"

Earlier today, a convoy of 4 cruise ships ran the Strait of Hormuz at full speed, sailing under fire through the Iranian-declared minefield.

@Bissevoven @Erisalyoshy Yesss literally the whole reason I started working out

[Miriam 🏳️‍⚧️🇳🇴 @Optimushroom1]

@TheIshikawaRin Wait, do you have engines at the end of the big orange fuel tanks? The real shuttle does not. Just the boosters on the side and the angled thrusters on the shuttle itself. That could be why it's turning too hard.

@DeclanWesting @jaketropolis @robgoldbergo It's entirely doable to get to orbit on ~3500 ∆V, but you need a T/W ratio around 2 for the first stage. With 1.2 you're spending 5/6ths of your thrust just cancelling out gravity. You wanna strike a balance between gravity and drag, 2 average throughout the burn is about right.

@Bissevoven Mount & Blade: Warband. You get to crush your enemies as an added bonus

@izziedrizzle Oh hey Izzie :3

[Miriam 🏳️‍⚧️🇳🇴 @Optimushroom1]

@Ganglosaxonnne Yeah, I just hadn't seen it explicitly stated anywhere before. I see in Mech Factory that the variants covered in Rec Guide 32 does, but the other variants don't list any quirks. Would make sense with the lore, though.

@HoneyGlowDawn @PamphletsY The trans woman they're protesting is black, and a Brazilian congresswoman.

@aciergorge @TheMiddleborne Then why don't you go to San Jose, CA and argue with the guys at Davenriche European Martial Arts School about it

@aciergorge @TheMiddleborne Armoured swordfighting includes grappling using the longsword half-sworded as a lever to get the other guy on the ground. And in Buhurt, getting the other guy on the ground counts as a win. So yes, you absolutely can.

[Miriam 🏳️‍⚧️🇳🇴 @Optimushroom1]

@psychocutxx I took psychic damage watching you dodge the flying breath attack aimed at your right side by calling Torrent and running to the right, straight through the target area 😭 you can go like 2 meters left and it misses, you didn't have to do all that

[Miriam 🏳️‍⚧️🇳🇴 @Optimushroom1]

@TheMiddleborne There are people in Buhurt that do use armored swordfighting techniques, but unfortunately the armor means the hobby has a steep entry price of $2500-5000 just to get started. Whereas HEMA you can get started with a <$50 basic training sword.

@FellaBrent @RedMarylandGoat @BasedBattletech I think what Kap here is getting at is that in Battletech's historical timeline, the Mackie was the first battlemech ever developed, so it's the proof of concept for all other 'mechs.
