00:05.21dromTek0516: If you don't mind the graphics and micromanagement
00:06.45dromTek0516: The UI too
00:07.18dromIf you buy it on Steam, you can always play it for up to two hours and determinate if it was worth the money
00:07.52Tek0516Might pick it up while it's still half off then.
00:08.08dromDrodoEmpire: I'm aware of that, but I usually just see the "conga-line" warfare
00:08.29DrodoEmpire"conga-line"? :p
00:08.55dromhttp://www.touchtapplay.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/Darkest-Dungeon.png
00:08.57dromLike that
00:09.18DrodoEmpireThat doesn't much resemble it. :p
00:09.24DrodoEmpireThey're formations. The things used in warfare for 99% of history and for good reason
00:09.54dromI know. But the thing is they are lined up behind each other, not in a proper formation as how you call it
00:11.37DrodoEmpireRight
00:11.50DrodoEmpireThat'd be a column, which *is* a proper formation
00:11.54DrodoEmpireBut now I'm being a dick
00:12.25dromNo. You are right
00:12.49dromIt is also column, but "conga" is a way to describle it negatively
00:13.01DrodoEmpireRight
00:19.00Tek0516In a cave setting a "conga" column does especially have viability due to the implicit bottleneck
00:21.25DrodoEmpireRight
00:21.38DrodoEmpireAlso several ranks wide to fill the whole cave
00:21.46DrodoEmpireYou could make a mean shieldwall
00:22.55dromConga lines/columns are always 1 man wide.
00:23.21DrodoEmpire...No, columns can be several ranks wide
00:23.37DrodoEmpireThey could also be two separate columns, close together
00:24.34dromCONGA
00:24.58DrodoEmpireCOLUMN FORMATION
00:25.17dromYou cannot fit a column through a one-man wide door. But you can with Conga lines
00:25.38DrodoEmpireA column can still be rank wide
00:25.45DrodoEmpireWhat are you talking about at this point
00:25.56DrodoEmpire*one rank wide
00:26.07dromtwitches violently
00:26.14Tek0516In ideal formation the front line is wide enough to prevent being flanked, without being so thin that you sacrifice the formation's integrity. A concept taken to its logical extreme in 1914. :P
00:26.23DrodoEmpire^
00:26.35DrodoEmpireThough...
00:26.58DrodoEmpireA column's effective as, while it sacrifices security on the sides, it has *immense* frontal momentum
00:27.05DrodoEmpireIt was also quite manueverable
00:27.35Tek0516Definitely
00:31.58DrodoEmpireOne thing with the napoleonic wars in particular though is that the column's frontage was feeble. That meant its musket volleys weren't as powerful as they would've been in a long line
00:32.46DrodoEmpireI believe the French compensated for that though by concenrtrating all their fire on the very core of the enemy's formation, so instead of casaulties all along their line here and there it was a hail of bullets headed towards a very well-defined target
00:32.51DrodoEmpireA lot of shock value there
00:38.09Tek0516The age of line infantry is definitely one of my favourite in terms of warfarem
00:38.29DrodoEmpire^
00:38.30DrodoEmpireWell
00:38.41DrodoEmpireFeels wrong to have a "favourite" type of war
00:38.47DrodoEmpireBut I get what you mean
00:38.50DrodoEmpireI feel the same
00:39.47DrodoEmpirehttps://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/69/Butler_Lady_Quatre_Bras_1815.jpg/1920px-Butler_Lady_Quatre_Bras_1815.jpg - I really do like this painting
00:39.56DrodoEmpireShows an infantry square in action
00:41.45Tek0516The idea behind it is so intriguing, grand formations of troops which emphasize the sheer impact of many guns firing all at once.
00:42.00DrodoEmpire^
00:42.23DrodoEmpireI can only imagine the sheer deafening *noise* of an 18th century battlefield
00:42.32DrodoEmpireI've heard muskets fired before... Hooly shit are they loud
00:42.54DrodoEmpireAnd they'd be even *louder* if they had a full charge and a musket ball loaded in it
00:44.22Tek0516Hundreds or even thousands of shots accompanied by a load roar, cloud of smoke and a wave of men just being killed at once. It would be terrifying.
00:44.59DrodoEmpireYeah
00:45.45Tek0516It's a fascinating concept.
00:46.38dromCannon batteries firing all elements at the same second
00:46.41dromAww yiss
00:47.37Tek0516Even naval combat of the era had similar concept of broadsides.

20:49.48MonetHi
20:52.11ZF101Hello
20:58.42ImperiosHachiman: Would it make sense for me to use the term "damask" in the Fantasyverse in reference to the fabric if there is no Damascus on Koldenwelt
20:59.11HachimanWell, which nation / city would equate to Damascus
21:00.50ImperiosWell
21:01.00ImperiosEither some place in Alhassal or some place in Merovar dynasty
21:01.04Imperios*the Merovar Dynasty

21:16.55XhoImperios: But the Night's King is in favour of tearing down the Wall, not building one
21:17.58ImperiosXho: But he is going to make the White Walkers pay for the wall
21:18.13Xhobut
21:18.18XhoNight's King is a White Walker
21:18.52ImperiosHm
21:19.02ImperiosWhere do you think rice could be grown on Koldenwelt
21:20.56XhoImperios:                                                                                                  in fields
21:21.16ImperiosHm
21:21.25ImperiosI suppose the climate in the Tropical Lands is appropriate for it
21:21.34ImperiosCould the Khalmartia grow it in the Sovereign perhaps
21:21.41ImperiosI need to find some reason for Alhassans to cook rice hur
21:21.43XhoSuppose so, Japan's climate is quite tropical
21:22.21XhoOluapPlayer: Well he tried singing Dream Theater and Dream Theater is impossible regardless of what instrument you play
21:23.21XhoA song that has 130 time signature changes is not a song for the beginner

21:42.43ImperiosXho: So apprently Japanese for "horse meat" is "Sakura niku"
21:42.59XhoUnlikely

21:56.17Guest1632What is being discussed at the moment?
21:57.02ImperiosI try to make people talk about my kebabs
21:57.04ImperiosAnd fail at that
21:58.09Guest1632They probably just want to remove the kebabs
21:58.34Guest1632(Also how do you identify for your name so it doesn't change?)
22:01.06GhelaeIf you've registered your name, /msg NickServ identify [password]
22:01.20GhelaeIf you haven't, your name is being changed because someone else has already registered it.

23:03.59Tek0516I just noticed that as part of their "fandom" nonsense they changed it from "A Wikia User/Contributer/Whatever it was" to "A Wikia Fan"
23:06.03MonetOh bloody hell
23:07.04DrodoEmpireAw yuck
23:07.15DrodoEmpireYeah what's that dumb rebranding about?
23:17.18drom_Nothing but waving about their packs
23:18.14MonetI think its them trying ot be unique and maybe separate from WIkipedia
23:18.49MonetIt's amazing how emotionally neutral the shorthand for 'fanatic' has become for some people.
23:21.52TechnobliteratorIt's actually nothing to do with that at all.
23:22.34TechnobliteratorWikia is a collaborative environment  that has always been by fans, for fans. Wikipedia is an online, free, collaborative encyclopedia. They have very little in common whatsoever.
23:22.45Technobliterator"A Wikia Fan", I agree, is stupid
23:22.54DrodoEmpireYeah I personally don't like the rebranding
23:22.57DrodoEmpireLike its logical
23:23.27DrodoEmpireBut I don't like "fandoms", and I'd sooner not be associated with that sort of thing. :p
23:23.31DrodoEmpireBut what're you going to do.
23:24.00TechnobliteratorRight, there has been discussion about that. Some people argue "fandom" has a negative connotation attached to it, others argue that "fandom" is the most appropriate word for what Wikia is.
23:24.39MonetWell yeah, 'fan' has its origins in 'fanatic'.
23:25.00TechnobliteratorIt's not really a rebranding, so much as it is a proper focus. Despite being one of the most used websites, Wikia's branding in itself has never been particularly recognisable, while the brands of wikis like Memory Alpha have.
23:26.20drom_personally saying, I feel more like it is a retardation of the Wikia communities alone
23:26.36DrodoEmpireTech: Ah, that's fair enough
23:26.37TechnobliteratorIn what way?
23:26.48drom_Fan of a game, than probably. But a fan of Wikia? Nah
23:26.56TechnobliteratorNo one said they're a fan of Wikia.
23:27.20TechnobliteratorIt means they're a fan of whatever the community is about. Halo Fanon wiki? You're obviously a fan of Halo, or else why would you be there?
23:27.30TechnobliteratorOf course, I say this, yet I'm barely a fan of Spore at all 8D
23:28.35DrodoEmpireayy lmao
23:34.57drom_Halopediaman Tek0516: Turns out those "independent trading ships" are actually smugglers belonging to individual pirate factions
23:35.56Technobliteratoroh, drom_, before I forget
23:36.02TechnobliteratorI need to speak with you at some point about Da Reckoning
23:36.12drom_Gotcha
23:36.22TechnobliteratorRemind me tomorrow
23:36.39drom_Which also reminds me of the RP I have with Wormy
23:36.45drom_But he be busy so blah
23:42.12HalopediamanWell yeah, didn't you notice they made a habit of showing up when you offered cash for smuggled goods? :P
23:44.22drom_Halopediaman: Despite the fact, they also naturally appear to transport various goods for you or to trade. Sometimes to refuel.
23:45.59drom_It also helps that they have higher technology to start off than normal empires. So they can scout and find you even unnoticed
23:53.03HalopediamanAlso, goddammit, I'm literally in a secluded corner of the galaxy and I run into the damned T-Rex's a system away
23:55.33HalopediamanAnd I ran into them on an even more isolated system they've expanded to from an even /more/ isolated system
