00:05.21 | drom | Tek0516: If you don't mind the graphics and micromanagement |
00:06.45 | drom | Tek0516: The UI too |
00:07.18 | drom | If you buy it on Steam, you can always play it for up to two hours and determinate if it was worth the money |
00:07.52 | Tek0516 | Might pick it up while it's still half off then. |
00:08.08 | drom | DrodoEmpire: I'm aware of that, but I usually just see the "conga-line" warfare |
00:08.29 | DrodoEmpire | "conga-line"? :p |
00:08.55 | drom | http://www.touchtapplay.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/Darkest-Dungeon.png |
00:08.57 | drom | Like that |
00:09.18 | DrodoEmpire | That doesn't much resemble it. :p |
00:09.24 | DrodoEmpire | They're formations. The things used in warfare for 99% of history and for good reason |
00:09.54 | drom | I know. But the thing is they are lined up behind each other, not in a proper formation as how you call it |
00:11.37 | DrodoEmpire | Right |
00:11.50 | DrodoEmpire | That'd be a column, which *is* a proper formation |
00:11.54 | DrodoEmpire | But now I'm being a dick |
00:12.25 | drom | No. You are right |
00:12.49 | drom | It is also column, but "conga" is a way to describle it negatively |
00:13.01 | DrodoEmpire | Right |
00:19.00 | Tek0516 | In a cave setting a "conga" column does especially have viability due to the implicit bottleneck |
00:21.25 | DrodoEmpire | Right |
00:21.38 | DrodoEmpire | Also several ranks wide to fill the whole cave |
00:21.46 | DrodoEmpire | You could make a mean shieldwall |
00:22.55 | drom | Conga lines/columns are always 1 man wide. |
00:23.21 | DrodoEmpire | ...No, columns can be several ranks wide |
00:23.37 | DrodoEmpire | They could also be two separate columns, close together |
00:24.34 | drom | CONGA |
00:24.58 | DrodoEmpire | COLUMN FORMATION |
00:25.17 | drom | You cannot fit a column through a one-man wide door. But you can with Conga lines |
00:25.38 | DrodoEmpire | A column can still be rank wide |
00:25.45 | DrodoEmpire | What are you talking about at this point |
00:25.56 | DrodoEmpire | *one rank wide |
00:26.07 | drom | twitches violently |
00:26.14 | Tek0516 | In 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 |
00:26.23 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
00:26.35 | DrodoEmpire | Though... |
00:26.58 | DrodoEmpire | A column's effective as, while it sacrifices security on the sides, it has *immense* frontal momentum |
00:27.05 | DrodoEmpire | It was also quite manueverable |
00:27.35 | Tek0516 | Definitely |
00:31.58 | DrodoEmpire | One 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 |
00:32.46 | DrodoEmpire | I 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 |
00:32.51 | DrodoEmpire | A lot of shock value there |
00:38.09 | Tek0516 | The age of line infantry is definitely one of my favourite in terms of warfarem |
00:38.29 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
00:38.30 | DrodoEmpire | Well |
00:38.41 | DrodoEmpire | Feels wrong to have a "favourite" type of war |
00:38.47 | DrodoEmpire | But I get what you mean |
00:38.50 | DrodoEmpire | I feel the same |
00:39.47 | DrodoEmpire | https://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 |
00:39.56 | DrodoEmpire | Shows an infantry square in action |
00:41.45 | Tek0516 | The idea behind it is so intriguing, grand formations of troops which emphasize the sheer impact of many guns firing all at once. |
00:42.00 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
00:42.23 | DrodoEmpire | I can only imagine the sheer deafening *noise* of an 18th century battlefield |
00:42.32 | DrodoEmpire | I've heard muskets fired before... Hooly shit are they loud |
00:42.54 | DrodoEmpire | And they'd be even *louder* if they had a full charge and a musket ball loaded in it |
00:44.22 | Tek0516 | Hundreds 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. |
00:44.59 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah |
00:45.45 | Tek0516 | It's a fascinating concept. |
00:46.38 | drom | Cannon batteries firing all elements at the same second |
00:46.41 | drom | Aww yiss |
00:47.37 | Tek0516 | Even naval combat of the era had similar concept of broadsides. |
00:48.56 | drom | Kl-kl-kl-kl-kl-kl-kl-kling-tumdsh |

20:59.11 | Hachiman | Well, which nation / city would equate to Damascus |
21:00.50 | Imperios | Well |
21:01.00 | Imperios | Either some place in Alhassal or some place in Merovar dynasty |

21:20.56 | Xho | Imperios: in fields |
21:21.16 | Imperios | Hm |
21:21.25 | Imperios | I suppose the climate in the Tropical Lands is appropriate for it |
21:21.34 | Imperios | Could the Khalmartia grow it in the Sovereign perhaps |
21:21.41 | Imperios | I need to find some reason for Alhassans to cook rice hur |
21:21.43 | Xho | Suppose so, Japan's climate is quite tropical |
21:22.21 | Xho | OluapPlayer: Well he tried singing Dream Theater and Dream Theater is impossible regardless of what instrument you play |

23:03.59 | Tek0516 | I just noticed that as part of their "fandom" nonsense they changed it from "A Wikia User/Contributer/Whatever it was" to "A Wikia Fan" |
23:06.03 | Monet | Oh bloody hell |
23:07.04 | DrodoEmpire | Aw yuck |
23:07.15 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah what's that dumb rebranding about? |
23:17.18 | drom_ | Nothing but waving about their packs |
23:18.14 | Monet | I think its them trying ot be unique and maybe separate from WIkipedia |
23:18.49 | Monet | It's amazing how emotionally neutral the shorthand for 'fanatic' has become for some people. |
23:21.52 | Technobliterator | It's actually nothing to do with that at all. |
23:22.34 | Technobliterator | Wikia 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. |
23:22.45 | Technobliterator | "A Wikia Fan", I agree, is stupid |
23:22.54 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah I personally don't like the rebranding |
23:22.57 | DrodoEmpire | Like its logical |
23:23.27 | DrodoEmpire | But I don't like "fandoms", and I'd sooner not be associated with that sort of thing. :p |
23:23.31 | DrodoEmpire | But what're you going to do. |
23:24.00 | Technobliterator | Right, 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. |
23:24.39 | Monet | Well yeah, 'fan' has its origins in 'fanatic'. |
23:25.00 | Technobliterator | It'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. |
23:26.20 | drom_ | personally saying, I feel more like it is a retardation of the Wikia communities alone |
23:26.36 | DrodoEmpire | Tech: Ah, that's fair enough |
23:26.37 | Technobliterator | In what way? |
23:26.48 | drom_ | Fan of a game, than probably. But a fan of Wikia? Nah |
23:26.56 | Technobliterator | No one said they're a fan of Wikia. |
23:27.20 | Technobliterator | It 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? |
23:27.30 | Technobliterator | Of course, I say this, yet I'm barely a fan of Spore at all 8D |
23:28.35 | DrodoEmpire | ayy lmao |
23:34.57 | drom_ | Halopediaman Tek0516: Turns out those "independent trading ships" are actually smugglers belonging to individual pirate factions |
23:35.56 | Technobliterator | oh, drom_, before I forget |
23:36.02 | Technobliterator | I need to speak with you at some point about Da Reckoning |
23:36.12 | drom_ | Gotcha |
23:36.22 | Technobliterator | Remind me tomorrow |
23:36.39 | drom_ | Which also reminds me of the RP I have with Wormy |
23:36.45 | drom_ | But he be busy so blah |
23:42.12 | Halopediaman | Well yeah, didn't you notice they made a habit of showing up when you offered cash for smuggled goods? :P |
23:44.22 | drom_ | Halopediaman: Despite the fact, they also naturally appear to transport various goods for you or to trade. Sometimes to refuel. |
23:45.59 | drom_ | It also helps that they have higher technology to start off than normal empires. So they can scout and find you even unnoticed |
23:53.03 | Halopediaman | Also, goddammit, I'm literally in a secluded corner of the galaxy and I run into the damned T-Rex's a system away |
23:55.33 | Halopediaman | And I ran into them on an even more isolated system they've expanded to from an even /more/ isolated system |
23:56.09 | drom_ | hue |
