Age of wonders 3 good combat heroes2/13/2024 ![]() Triumph Studios two-games-in-one approach sets Age of Wonders III in a rare cross-genre we only see come out of the Total War franchise. Quick Take: Six years after its original release, Age of Wonders III still stands as a remarkably competent and fun 4x turn-based strategy and tactical combat game. Tags: A few words or tags that come to mind after playing are: tactical, "just one more turn", RPG-esque, time-consuming. Had to knock it down a whole point due to the lack of available servers & players online. It's hard to get me to like most strategy games, and I really enjoyed this one.

Atomic Heart Game small enemies2/13/2024 ![]() ![]() This would seem like the perfect point of view, or, the right cynical mindset to apply to the tortured narrative and thought-barren experience I’d had trampling through Facility 3826 for roughly seventeen hours as I shot and puzzled my way through Mundfish Games‘ first video game, Atomic Heart, a quasi-AAA immersive sim influenced first-person shooter. The coin is not so different, only the economy resultant, eh? Slip on the jumpsuit of a brainwashed super solider, apply a bit of pressure to the greater machine and see how it turns out here: This notion of collective purpose is an ugly old propagandic lie which both Russian and United States governments outright feign, knowing just how in the palm of their hand we all are within equally corrupt corporation-run federal republics. Bickering commentary and divisive politico is the major pastime of identity void, capitalism-raised mutants today… money hungered, culture malnourished freaks whom none would ever trust as additions to the concept of “the will of the people” for their sheer lack of connection with reality. It just doesn’t compare to the convenient glare of corporate technology, that which feeds collective disarray (social engineering) by way of machine learning. ![]() Human beings are simply too easy to manipulate, too selfish under duress, and this is especially true when attention spans cannot keep up with the slothful reality of bureaucracy. Is there a greater good worth fighting for? In the last three years I’ve begun to more seriously entertain the argument that the device-connected portion of the human race has mentally devolved at such a rapid, blinding rate that there is no communal goal or value worth protecting in the grotesquely distracted minds of any population. ![]()

Warhammer 40k imperial guard quotes2/12/2024 ![]() On the tabletop, few armies can field as many soldiers as the Imperial Guard, which is fortunate, as they are comparatively lightly-armed and -armored, and have morale that's highly contingent on their proximity to a commanding officer or commissar. ![]() This gives Imperial commanders a variety of tactics with which to smite the Emperor's enemies, from aerial assaults to artillery bombardments to armored blitzkriegs, though many generals are satisfied with throwing Guardsmen into a conflict until it is won. Thus, the regiments from the death world of Catachan are renowned jungle fighters, the Armageddon Steel Legions are famous for their mechanized infantry, the Elysian Drop Troops are the Guard's premier airborne infantry, and so forth. The Astra Militarum encourages both standardization of equipment and specialization of regiments, allowing worlds or cultures to contribute troops that play to their strengths. The Imperial Guard is descended from the Imperial Army that supported the Space Marine Legions during the Great Crusade, though after the Horus Heresy it was divided into a separate army and Imperial Navy so that a renegade general couldn't command both troops and the means to deploy them. ![]() A Guardsman's individual odds aren't good, but if the Imperium has any resource in abundance, it's manpower. His training is filled with propaganda and misinformation, his commanders are willing to expend millions of men and machines in a conflict like he himself will expend ammunition, and if he harbors any doubts there are commissars ready to summarily execute cowards and deserters. Each Guardsman is equipped with a lasgun that while capable of blowing off limbs is among the weakest weapons in the setting, as well as flak armor that most other armies' standard weaponry can punch right through. The worlds of the Imperium are required to pay a regular tithe in support of its endless conflicts, and part is paid in regiments for the Imperial Guard. ![]() In Warhammer 40,000, the superhuman Space Marines may be among the Imperium's most exalted warriors, but the overwhelming majority of its battles and wars are fought by the Astra Militarum (more commonly known as the Imperial Guard), an army numbering in the untold trillions and made up mostly of ordinary men and women who hold the line in defense of humanity. General Sturnn, Officer Commanding, Cadian 412th ![]()
