but yeah
it was a crazy battle
Can really see a lotta detail in that
Source?
I was listening to a podcast
So I don't have a direct source for the barn thing
Random question. Which Roman, or Byzantine, Emperor was you lads favorite, and why?
@Soulman hmm, hard question. For me probably Ceaser because of how short his reign was and how he was struck down by his own comrades
But he was emperor caeser right?
I'm not well versed with that time frame of history
WW1 and 2 are my thing
It's fine, thats a common misconception. Julius Caesar was never Roman Emperor, and the office was created by his Nephew Augustus decade's after his death.
ok
@Soulman how about Magnus Maximilius? Wasn't he the super thicc emporer?
Magnus Maximus?
Justinian had a glorious reign for sure
I got some history for y’all
Operation Mockingbird was a CIA operation started in the 50s during the Cold War to take control and influence mainstream news networks. At first, the CIA used the mainstream to project anti-communism and pro-nationalism into the minds of Americans. This quickly changed, as the media was nothing more but a puppet of the CIA that was only spewing their satanic interests from the 60s and onward.
“Operation Mockingbird did not end.”
- Kevin Shipp, former CIA officer, 2017
Yeah Julius and Augustus
Pecan pie

i recognize him
is it?
oh my god it is
Damn commies did way more killing than the nazis but every college students love them
Germans: + or - 5-10 million (it varies for some reason)
Soviets: 30M+ let's not talk about that
They spent all this time making mock ups and blueprints
Yet they all use the same super sized VW Beetle transmission
That's exactly what happened to all their tanks after Pz III and IV
Panzer VI Tiger, Panzer V Panther and Panzer VII King Tiger all suffered transmission failure after 150 miles due to over stressed design, the tank was just way too heavy for 60 tons of raw armor
Well i mean, compared to other tanks, the transmission fsilures werent much an issue, as every other countries tanks had the same issues and some Shermans would flatout just not start and the Russian T-34 would occasionally not having a working gun at all
