You don't get it, this time they declared TOTAL WAR. The US wasn't really even trying last time. "Like, you only made me use 10 percent of my power Scoob."
Isn't declaring total war basically just announcing a full and clear intent to do war crimes
Warhammer
Im playing vermintide right this second and was really freaked out for a sec
The version of declaring total war where Congress isn't consulted and hasn't declared war though, right?
Yeah, it's the kind where you just attack civilian infrastructure but then claim it's a brand new war every 60 days.
Tbf most of Congress wants the war so Iran collapses and their donors can plunder what's left of Iran while getting fat bonuses from AIPAC
But they know this war is not ending anytime soon and siding with Trump right before the mid terms is suicide, so they're doing their usual "to stop the war, vote for us!"
But WHICH Total War? 3 Kingdoms is a masterpiece but there are garbage entries like Empire.
I liked Empire.
Yeah, I kind of had to pick one to shit on for the joke to work. Even the bad total war games have their appeal.
Empire is perfect, load times and all.
Empire feels like it had a lot of potential, but was unfinished.
