  2. (112) Witcher 3 Blood and Wine Walkthrough Part 11 All quests Death March (all side quests + commentary) - YouTube Wine wars- a feel good set of side quests with beautiful visuals. There is another quest involving a Wine owner and this one is sad. Side Quest 'Paperchase' involves the dwarf banker Vivaldi from the novels. Unfortunately it is just a fun quest and doesn't make Vivaldi intriguing. Dandelion's character model reminds me of a young Jonny Depp. Jonny Depp also likes vineyards and is a francophile.
  3. The most significant days of the Russian artillery offensive July 6-16
  4. In an Alternate history what-if, it would have required mainly the US to provide training, ammunition and equipment for the Ukrainian heavy artillery army. House passes $839B defense bill, swatting down Biden’s military plans - POLITICO The $839 billion National Defense Authorization Act, approved in a 329-101 vote, is $37 billion more than the administration sought in military spending.

  7. reminds me of the outdoors, hiking
  8. The orphanage can be visited before the quest- it is different!
  9. Military Balance 2021 puts total European military expenditures at 40% of the USA. Britain, France, and Germany have the highest. Individual nations have very low numbers of troops, tanks and artillery compared to the Russia and Ukraine. Basically Russia + the legacy Soviet arsenal is a monster in terms of value per dollar. They can manufacture tanks and artillery at extremely low cost and buy 5-6 professional Russian soldiers for one US soldier. Germany's military spending in financial terms is around the range of Russia but look at what they have. Poland is a lower-income country and has considerably more : Germany: Army 62,150 ARMOURED FIGHTING VEHICLES MBT 245: 225 Leopard 2A5/A6; 19 Leopard 2A7; 1 Leopard 2A7V (78 Leopard 2A4 in store ARTILLERY 262 SP 155mm 121 PzH 2000 MRL 227mm 41 M270 MLRS MOR 100: 120mm 70 Tampella; SP 120mm 30 M113 with Tampella Poland: Army 58,500 ARMOURED FIGHTING VEHICLES MBT 808:137 Leopard 2A4 (being upgraded to 2PL); 105 Leopard 2A5; 5 Leopard 2PL (in test); 232 PT-91 Twardy; 329 T-72A/T-72M1 ARTILLERY 719 SP 394: 122mm 227 2S1 Gvozdika; 152mm 111 M-77 Dana; 155mm 56 Krab MRL 122mm 179: 75 BM-21; 29 RM-70; 75 WR-40 Langusta MOR 146: 120mm 80: 15 2B11; 65 M120; SP 120mm 66 SMK120 RAK
  10. On youtube there are some interviews where GRRM discusses Tolkein and LOTR. He seems to identify himself as a "contra-Tolkein", an innovator who takes established tropes in fantasy and makes new versions of them. This is obvious from Game of Thrones. Basically, he criticizes Tolkein as being a pollyanna. However what I don't like about his work is the nihilism and negativity. GOT is about misguided people working towards mutually assured destruction. I think a massive saga should end with the reader/watcher and key characters becoming better than they were before, and triumphant in a unique way.
  11. Awesome and hilarious, sick burn:
  12. This game is so well written and complete that even if Witcher 4 doesn't come out somehow I am satisfied. It is so rich in detail that one could review it a third time and still enjoy it immensely. If they bring the Witcher again to TV they could simply just copy the W3 and it would be a lot better than the netflix show. Characters present in the 10th anniversary video: Geralt, Ciri, Triss, Yennefer, Shani, Regis, Dandelion, Priscilla, Zoltan, B.B., Damien, Eskel, Lambert, Keira, Bloody Baron, Duchess Anna, Olgierd, Jonny and Sarah. The canon endings are:
