Thereโ€™s a table about ten feet away from me playing Dragon Rampant.

I donโ€™t quite know whatโ€™s going on, but everyone seems to be having a blast and apparently theyโ€™re fighting over a sacred cow.

I dig it.

an illustration. A number of rats sit with each other. One lights a match off a circle a matchbook, while one holds a cocktail made from a beaker. Another throws a lit beaker cocktail and one holds a flower with a black flag on it. They are held by a circle.

Met Museum photo of an Ancient Egyptian artistโ€™s painting of a swallow on a flake of limestone, dated to the New Kingdom, Dynasty 18, joint reign of Hatshepsut and Thutmose III, c. 1479-1458 BC. 

The sparrow stands in profile with head to the right. It is delicately painted with a pinkish body. The outline and details are highlighted in a reddish/brown pigment. Itโ€™s legs, eye, and beak are painted black. Limestone flake dimensions H. 6.6 cm x W. 10.6 cm.

This may have been a practice drawing of the sparrow hieroglyph which was used for words meaning โ€˜smallโ€™, โ€˜poorโ€™, or โ€˜badโ€™.

Egyptian artisans who decorated tombs and temples made practice sketches on flakes of limestone which are known by egyptologists as ostraca (singular: ostracon). Sometimes the drawings were used as a template when transferring an image to the wall of a tomb or a temple. Limestone flakes were readily available for this purpose as by-products of the construction of temples and rock-cut tombs. A number of ostraca were recovered at Deir el-Bahri during the 1922-23 MMA excavations.

Artists have always loved to sketch!

Some 3,500 years ago in Egypt, artists used small flakes of limestone as sketchpads!

The reason that they went so hard early is that they are hoping the electorate will have forgotten by the mid-terms

Got the first significant piece of art for the office. This is one of the "52 cards of Greed" that Occupy Wall Street alternative banking working group (of which I was a part of when i was 20-22) made in 2012. I believe this is the only print of the art from that project in existence

limits the amount of imperial forces that can be deployed

9) The imperial power does not possess the technical advantage it thinks has

10) Although the Bene Gesserit support the imperial cause, the pilots' guild does not; they want peace at any cost

11) last but not least, Plot Armour 4/4

has not been penetrated by imperial intelligence.

5) Imperial forces are impaired by rivalry between the Harkonnen and imperial houses.

6) The insurgency is led by external experts

7) The emperor is impatient and pulls command from his subordinates

8) The logistics footprint of the Saudakar 3/4

2) The imperial power has a grossly inaccurate intelligence picture. They don't even know where the population centers are.

3) The key survival resource, water, is not vulnerable. The insurgency's political leadership controls this resource.

4) The local population 2/4

Agree as to "insurgencies are invicible" is wrong. Some facts in the scenario which help make it less ridiculous: 1/4

1) Arrakis' biosphere is valuable, because of the spice. Cracking the planet would normally be an easy win, not possible.
