Tanki? Life? You can have both?

Drones are a money pit. They cost too much to operate, and maybe benefit hardcore buyers but not very efficiently. 300 crystals per battery? To reset drugs whenever you kill an enemy tank, for one minute? You are obviously better off spending those 300 crystals on 6 supplies. The only exception is hardcore druggers whose only drugging limit is cooldowns; it will provide a marginal advantage there. It remains to be seen how many batteries one gets in daily missions though.

This is the sort of thing that writing teachers love. But this is also the thing I skim over in books. :lol:

"The nut in question was called Mountainview“ Lazy naming exhibit A. :P "Hannibal used vinegar to dissolve boulders so he could bring his elephants over the Alps.” Is this intentionally false? The version I heard was he heated up rocks so they cracked, but whatever.

Interview with the General - Part I [Tankiverse Fanfic]
shafter9 replied to Hippin_in_Hawaii in Writers' Corner
But there are soldiers IRL who doubtless have seen all varieties of treatments towards occupied civilians. And they haven't changed into war criminals. "Fred is identifying a tiny course correction in a voyage that spans years, if not decades, taking him from a trainee to general in charge of all armored forces." And Ruby saw all that in his eye? Is she literally a prophet? You have yet to reveal what qualifies him as a war criminal, or why the conversation contributed to it, so I suppose these problems could be cleared up in the future. So this conversation can wait, I guess. -

Is it just me, or are the events related by Ruby in their conversation rather disproportionate to the effect on Fred's life? As she herself confessed in the other episode of yours, the occupation/"liberation" was not at all harsh as occupying liberations go. (Looking at you, USSR in Poland, 1945). She complains about possible property loss, supply chain disruption and currency change/inflation. This is a slight surprise to Fred, who was expecting a hero's welcome, but probably not enough to turn him into a perceived war criminal (or plant a seed of anything). At most it would have convinced him not to re-enlist or something. Am I missing something? :mellow: -

Tanki X has no drugs or magnum. It is fairly balanced, but my computer can't handle the graphics.

War Thunder is amazing, has less lag, no drugs, is not pay-to-win to the extent that WOT is, and has no health bars. I like its historical realism, even though it is weak on that front.

What animated paints would you like to see in the game?

Electra, like a red Zeus. -
I like the economy, it rewards certain behavior and allows you to dominate over economic noobs. The drugging is a problem. Tanki X has phased it out. I prefer Tanki's graphics, upgrade system, economics and feel but Tanki X's modules and lack of supplies. Tanki X gets its money from selling visual modifications instead of selling pure playing power. The addition of skins to TO will quite possibly enable a shift away from drugs.

"They laughed and supped and finished their beers, then headed back to the darkness." (Georgie and Fred) "Fred obeyed. The whisky tasted familiar. He looked at the bottle on the desk. Hederson Special Reserve!" (Called on Carpet) Probably more instances exist, the point is, alcohol flows a bit freely compared to most other AWC articles...

“Have a seat. Mind the wind, tho. Don’t want the smoke in your eyes.” Is the "tho" intentional, though?

True, tanks have extensive support networks IRL. But isn't recondensed water clean by default? Only the water turns into vapor, leaving contaminants behind, and assuming the condensing surface was clean...

I'd buy it, provided that the words were dirty enough. :ph34r: Back to the story- in a tank, there may be ways to distill urine? Boil it, capture the vapor, recondense it?

Nice, I like it.

This is a bad idea. One of the cons of Shaft, which balances it, is the resulting tunnel vision and low situational awareness.
