It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

In the same time they're claiming Algeria is woke and sent a trans woman, they also claim Algerians are backwards who beat up women.

Trans Exclusive instead of Trans Exclusionary sounds rad. The little "Only on N64" badge but "Only for Trans!!!"

the highest award i could achieve

[–] Parzivus@hexbear.net 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I really want to get back into civ 4 but I've been on 5/6 for so long it seems like it'd be hard. Life's tough spamton-pain

REJECT REACTIONARY MODERNITY (hexagons and one unit per tile)

EMBRACE SOCIALIST TRADITION (ignoring the pythagorean theorem and also playing as mao/stalin and also state property being one of the best civics in the game)

I really hope Civ 7 goes back to multiple units per tile, war in the more recent games is really annoying. I like the way Humankind does it where you have stack until the combat actually starts

[–] egg1918@hexbear.net 8 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I hope they kill the hideous cartoonist style of 6 and bury it deep in the ground. 5 is like 10 years old now and it looks better still

[–] EstraDoll@hexbear.net 6 points 1 month ago

Guh. Even 3 and 4 both look better than 6

[–] the_itsb@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago

YES.

I don't have a lot of time for gaming, but Steam says I've managed to find 795.3 hours for 5 over the years.

I haven't even played 6. I was so disappointed by the graphics that I didn't buy it. My husband saw a super sale on Steam and got it for us both a while ago, and he tried playing some around me to entice me, and it just made me hate it more.

[–] EstraDoll@hexbear.net 6 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I like how they did it in Endless Legend to where you can put 8 units in one tile as an army and then each of those units breaks down once the fighting begins. Never seen the combat in humankind but I can assume it's similar?

[–] Parzivus@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago

Yeah it's the same

[–] Mindfury@hexbear.net 3 points 1 month ago

it's been too long since i've played any 4X (a few months) but i'm pretty sure that you can have stacks move across the map and position out of combat, but battles actually happen in a small restricted set of tiles and the stacks are split up to make you position and find advantage in the battle specifically. i think the battle itself has it's own set of 3 phases (like turns within the battle only) to resolve
