It's pretty ignorant to believe that the Crusades weren't fought for primarily religious reasons, it's not like getting to the Holy Land was easy or cheap for any King wanting to go over there, and it feeds into the whole idea of plenary indulgence that was rampant during the period. Getting...

You've got to understand, that with British History, teachers have a huge amount to cover. US History runs from it's founding to modern day, while British History runs back thousands of years. While you're learning about events barely a few hundred years old, we're learning about The Tudors and...

Admittedly most current theories are just that - theories, and are entirely thought experiments, since we really have no way to reach asteroids or rocks. Well there are many ways to manage it, it all depends on the level of technology, and how fast you want the asteroid to arrive. The cheapest...

A moon in a gas giant likely means tons of rocks, since around most gas giants, you get a planetary ring (although in some cases it is rather small). And you don't need a huge rock to really mess up someone's day, especially after they all gathered in one spot. You don't even need massive...

You don't need weaponry to bombard someone from orbit. They came there on a starship, all they have to do is chuck asteroids at them, with absolute impunity. It's not even hard, anyone with any decent level of maths ability could do the math, so people that can build and pilot FTL starships...

This. We can down most of SSC/TK and we're getting closer on the last few bosses but we still wipe on Attumen trash. Actually funniest thing was last night during a quick Kara raid to drag some new people through, and someone starts singing Holla Back Girl by Gwen Stefani over teamspeak in a...

Because criticising any government is the favourite activity of almost every person on the planet. Easily blamable for everything from natural disasters to unemployment and they can't exactly say anything back.

Like this, but completely complex. Go from the original infestation when you get confused news stories, keep going as more and more appear the Government trying to calm things down, the army deployed etc etc. Eventually it turns into a full blown outbreak. Include some system that either forces...
