vcczar Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Although a quasi-pacifist, I find the strategies and personalities of pre-modern war interesting. Here’s my top 3 list: 1. French Rev-Napoleonic 2. US Civil War 3 30 Years War Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pringles Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Napoleonic, Second Punic, and maybe the Gallic Wars for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilight Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 War is a failure on the part of humanity to find better ways to resolve our differences and that is a sad thing. I decline to participate in the glorification of violent destruction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the state of affairs, it may likely be quite anti-climactic, and over before you know (with you, I, and most others on this forum not likely being among the less then 3% of the world's population left to see it and it's aftermath - an aftermath that won't be nearly as amusing as Wasteland/Fallout or Gamma World or as cinematic as Mad Max, but probably more like Threads or the Chrysalid). I'll survive. I'm just built different. Post-apocalyptic warlord time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Message boards don't have threads asking people about their favorite wolf encounters (unless they're dedicated to Omegaverse fiction). It's not an activity that is praiseworthy. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are you talking about? If anyone has a story where they fought off an actual wolf I would LOVE to hear about it and I will absolutely praise you for, might I repeat, Fighting off an actual wolf. You could not have possibly picked a worse analogy for the point you were attempting to make. You goofy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
