@DukeofEarl Martial Arts can be used on scenery structure despite the skill saying it works on troopers. I see no reason Targeted would work...
@xagroth I mean just 9001 Sierras.
@xagroth If it was post-scarcity they'd have enough combat robots that they wouldn't need soldiers.
It's also stated in a more word-of-God style fashion that Wallace was basically a minion sent to subvert Ariadna by ALEPH until his cube got...
It can't be a post-scarcity economy, or even close, because they still need human labor for their militaries.
That would be sick. Like an elite regiment of Dogfaces that have successfully defeated a TAG solo. Many of them straight up loot the armor off the...
Unless the Recreations have damaged cubes like Wallace, what they think is what ALEPH wants. I suppose there's that bit of fluff in there, but it...
Yes. Sun Tze is there to show what Aleph thinks and I don't hear about Xi refusing orders or anything of the sort. The orders for what the...
They are. They're portrayed as being so willing to kill Japanese civilians that they will alienate themselves from the rest of the Human Sphere...
You're acting as if we're all idiots for being surprised that Chinese characters are being portrayed, universally, as relentlessly morally...
@Balewolf Sorry, forgot that all Chinese people are inherently racist and genocidal. Should have remembered that before I considered Yu Jing a...
While I think @DFW Ike was off-base in his assessment, your thought that he was expressing an American right-wing analysis of Communism says more...
Let's be real here, the Kuge even "brainwashed" the rest of the human sphere (aside from Yu Jing) to support them. Having Uprising happen the way...
@DFW Ike PanO is not a post-scarcity society. Even setting aside the Ateks, they seem to be approaching the end state of an inverted totalitarian...
Which is schizophrenic with how they treated the Antennas in The Grid, but w/e...
The feedback was intermittent and poor.
Could be another Japanese sectorial if they're turning them into a full on faction and phasing out Yu Jing
Again, releasing IA at the same time, or even too soon afterwards, would have competed with their own product. They didn't want to do that; they...
Well, the new Japanese state should be treated with extreme caution by any rational actor - but in the story, everyone lines up to support the...
CB can definitely push YJ towards this. Hell, it looks like they're trying. If they were wondering why YJ didn't sell - it's because everyone...
