Those are community curated and the ones on popular series are generally very good and what I base any synopsis I...

    What are your opinions on the closing ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympics?

    If I was a French tax payer I wouldn’t give two shits if the Brazilian Skateboarding team had AC or good food. Though it seems like the conditions really were awful

    Stories/Characters you really want to rip off

    I havent played since early second edition but the price isn't bad since you don't need to buy much to play at a full points value game. You really only need a starter box and one additional unit to make a functional list. The minis were originally metal but are now plastic. They actually have...

    Say what you want about the Paris Olympics, but it was the cheapest Olympics in decades. They pulled it off without saddling the country with a bunch of unneeded dept like every other country

    How to handle dialogue?

    Kamov Ka-50 It’s the only modern attack helicopter that’s operated by a single crew member. (Pilot controls all weapons, similar to a modern fighter pilot) It has a coaxial main rotor so it can land and fly even if the entire tail section is destroyed.

    Writing Writer returning to writing long stories, but... Multiple problems are up now that I'm back.

    Give an event a lasting impact. If you look at nearly any tragic incident in the last 100 years there is some type of effect, something that was changed because of it. I don’t really know how to describe it so I‘ll give examples. Post 9/11 airliner cabin doors are reinforced with bulletproof...

    Stories that I hate

    These are the types of stories that I hate to read. This is purely a rant and in not meant to be a constructive discussion. This is also personal opinion, but since my opinion is the correct one you can just take it as fact 1. Man vs god stories. I’ve seen a lot of these particularly isekai...
