  1. In Topic: The Russia Politics and War in Ukraine Thread

    Yesterday, 03:31 AM

    Some Z-heads are being incredibly alarmist about UA's SE push, due to the fact that they have advantage in drones and control "near sky", which allows the assault troops to use armor effectively. The 2 orc armies that are holding the front here are under-manned, and the reinforcements are allegedly being directed to maintain the push out of the newly-occupied Hulyaipole towards Orikhiv, the linchpin of Ukraine's defense in the S.

    The Z-heads are worried that if UAF can continue their advance, they might be able to envelop the orc forces between Hulyaipole and Velyka Novosilka, and then have a clear advance "nearly all the way to Mariupol' " personally, I think this feels too doomer-ish, as we're talking nearly a 125 km advance, and it would take an enormous amount of troops to force and maintain a breach that deep and keep it wide enough (at least 50-80 km) to establish any semblance of secure logistics inside it.

  2. In Topic: The game I'm playing is...

    Over the weekend played through most of 1348 Ex Voto.

    The story turned out exactly as I thought it might after the demo/prologue. I blame "Best Served Cold" for warping my expectation's of medieval Italy, haha.

    The level design's pretty neat. Combat is uneven, and you're expected to unlock skills in order to keep up- and to do that, you need to explore every nook and cranny, but the levels flow one-way, and there's no manual saves, so if you missed an optional nook before a one-way drop, you have to basically restart the level.

    There's also a handful of bugs- including the last boss phasing out of reality, which is why I didn't finish the game yet.

    It would be decent for the asking price, if it was properly polished. But right now it's hard to recommend

    The Economist's newsletter today: Ukrainian drones

    have been taking out Russian soldiers faster than the Kremlin can recruit them



    Yeah, that's been the Unmanned Systems Corps' mission for the past 5 months. Fully embraced by the newly-appointed MoD (formerly Minister of Digital Transformations)

    Recently they shifted focus from simple infantry manhunts to middle-strikes targeting the orc logistics. This was done by re-evaluating the bonus points drone operators get for taking out logistics, instead of individual soldiers (the points tehy exchange for extra drones and drone specific drone components) This is actually more harmful, since when the enemies are poorly equipped, their lifespan on average is even shorter- and havoing to carry all their supplies over the 10-20 km of grey zone makes them more vulnerable.

    We'll have to see if they can keep up the same numbers once the leaf cover comes back, but as of right now, they're pretty on track to cause systemic attrition of the orc army, barring a new mobilization wave.

    And another hit at Ust-Luga, St Petersburg, and the Lukoil terminal at Vysotsk (outside Vyborg).

    UAF is taking drastic steps to shut down the Baltic sea route.

    The fun part is, the reason the donations have dried up, is b/c majority of the muscovite population is losing easy access to Telegram, where they are being collected.

    And the reason they are losing access to TG is because the government is trying to force everyone to use VK's own messenger, MAX. Which is owned by VK, which is run by the sons of putler's inner circle.

You know, the one that starts off about how pathetic Europe is or has become.. Liked it so much that I had to post it. Keep up the good work on reporting about anything new.. Peace out to you friend..

    You originally from Kiev, Ment? I'm getting that vibe from you with the Eastern Europe and K-town thing.
