"Armagooner" n. - Evangelical Christian eagerly anticipating the death and destruction of Armageddon.

I'm of the Airfix Generation.
Warhammer in the 90s was something that the youngsters were excited about.
It looked cool but I couldn't afford it being a young dad.
(And I didn't get the satire either...)

I wanted to build Hussites so bad. But couldn't afford a wagenburg.

*at one's peril

It's a rule that one ignores st one's peril.

Same. Maybe Star Wars? Probably ultra modern Ukraine?
But it'd still mostly be Napoloeonics and WW2 and ancients and medievals because my wargaming interests were always influenced by my reading, even as a teenager.

But definitely more spaceships

Due to underfunding and poor equipment levels we gotta make up for it with aggression.

What are you playing?
Some Cold War game?

Advertise it with this breakdown, I'd pay $150 for it.
Might get more if sell it by the piece.

If only I had a drawer that could lock and a late shift that doesn't seem to care about protecting our assets from other workers

My wolves are in hiding as the cats go on a rampage

You refuse to answer my question:
Do you conflate all Muslims with Jihadists?

You know the guy from The Office who is very territorial about his stapler?
I totally get him.
You're just trying to do your job, and Mgmt is up your ass about targets.
But now you've got to waste time looking for your stapler because selfish oiks can't return things.

The Reign of Terror?
Wasn't that Secular Humanism taken to the extreme?

And yeah there are LOTS of terrible people calling themselves "Christian"

But would you say all Muslims are the same as ISIS?

Oh dear...

Couple of people (who can hopefully help with things) got to hear very loud profanity laced rants this AM

People have always been selfish and made excuses for violence to defend their selfishness.
Look at modern neoliberals.
There were Good People trying to encourage others to Not Be Dicks to Each Other long before modern secular humanism.

With no context, how am I starting my week?

Please don't conflate all Christians with the loud mega-church Evangelicals or ultra conservative Catholics/Baptists/Lutherans etc
That's the same as saying all Muslims are jihadis

Indeed.
If I didn't care about the visuals, I'd play hex and counter games

CFB Borden is the ancestral home of the Royal Canadian Armoured Corps where it was founded during WW1. Although the training has moved to bigger bases.

Oh the Worthington tank museum is GREAT!
I have patted that particular Centurion on the fender several times.
The museum has 1 of I think 2 Wirbelwind flak panzers still in existence (although theirs might be in the shop being heavily restored)

The US has been in a long FA cycle without really hitting the FO. So they think they are exceptional, God's Chosen, and invulnerable.
9/11 almost did it, but wrong lessons were learned.

I could have made the table less elaborate and saved some energy.
It's more my own predilection for elaborate tables,because they're pretty.
And my health issues.

Then there's this one, with satire and a bit of darkness:

I include food a lot in many of my Quar stories
