While We Wait: Part 5

Me thinking that it would be easy to make a map and a city list based off of a map and city list set 145 in the future.
 
Luckymoose as Carthage in Jal_NES I, setting his weapons on fire. classic.
 
Could somebody give me references to some of these? Might be interesting to look at.
(I've seen the JalNES one, though)
 
update two:

The insane king of Carthage orders his troops' weapons set on fire. This is an unqualified disaster, as spears just burn to nothingness (-1 Confidence). The king does do something smart, however: he spends the entire treasury on boosting his troops' training. The mercenaries hired to do this job quickly determine that while flaming spears are a bad idea, flaming arrows can be extremely effective. The king's battle plan calls for "advanced tactics", but no one has any clue what they are, so they make it up. The spearmen protect the entire force of archers, who advance on a Berber village and burn it to the ground.
This is effective while it lasts, but there are very few archers, and after a few ambushes (-600 Spearmen, -400 Archers), this tactic is dead, for now.
 
Oh yes, I did alot of crazy things in that NES.

EDIT: OH yes, lets all mock Luckymoose for all the things he has done and forget everyone else' blunders. :p
 
Luckymoose, do you mind if I go back through that stuff in order to laugh at you?
 
The reason I chose Luckymoose was because I knew where that stuff was- I am still requesting links to the other stupidities.
 
If you think Obama will actually win.
Yeah, it's pretty iffy what with the the fundamentals of our economy being sound and all. And all those Red swing-states turnin' Blue as a result. About the only thing that could save McCain's pasty white ass right now is a terrorist attack, and they're not going to do a damn thing if they have an iota of sense because Obama's energy plan terminates the vast bulk of the American reason for being in the Middle East, and McCain is trigger-happy.

Also, Palin's current excuse for firing the Troopergate guy? He asked for Federal aide money to help solve sex crimes! This from the woman who charged women for their rape-kits and exams when she was mayor. Isn't the cover-up supposed to be less bad than the actual crime? It's like they're writing the book "What Not To Do if You Want to be President."
 
Yeah, because that'd totally work. You know, just like 9/11 was conducted by the American government. And the tens of thousands of people who would've been complicit in such a conspiracy? All totally loyal. So awesomely loyal there is no need to silence all the people with their "concrete evidence." Also, FDR totally knew the Japanese were going to bomb Pearl Harbor, and despite the fact he could have just let them shoot first, and then sprung a massive trap to pwn them, thus still getting a declaration of war and drastically shortening the length of the Pacific campaign, he just let them kill the fleet for the lulz. It was more challenging that way.

I can already easily construct a narrative at least as (if not vastly more) coherent as the above accounts regarding the GOP giving Georgia tacit approval to enter South Ossetia and that we had their backs, knowing this would massively piss off Russia, and giving McCain a chance to look like a tough guy.

The moment some idiot tries to actually fake a terrorist attack is the moment their fate of having their decapitated head impaled on the spire of the Capitol Dome is sealed.

[EDIT] Also, you're supporting a candidate you actually think might just try and do such a thing? WTH is wrong with you?
 
BTW Symphony D, what benefits do you expect from Obama should he win?
 
Gah, this reminds me so much of the talk about how "that idiot Chen Shui-bian and how he had himself shot" to get re-elected in Taiwan. *sigh*

I think having someone who doesn't make Karl Rove look like a saint, whose own supporters don't think he's so rotten he'd kill several hundreds to thousands of his fellow citizens to cow the rest into voting for him, and someone whose running mate isn't Ted Nugent in a wig and who shares two fun facts in common with Saddam Hussein and Hugo Chavez (for those keeping score: 1. She comes from a state whose main export is oil, and 2. She's a petty, hypocritical two-bit despot who surrounds herself with cronies and loves oppressing people of different views than her own) is an awesome advantage all by itself.

Fixing America so it can confront the actual "transcendant challenge" of the 21st Century instead of wearing it down and burning it out against this piddling little passing trend of Islamic terrorism is bonus points. Foreign adventurism doesn't work unless your power-base is secure and operational.
