  1. Maya/Mesoamerican Colonization of the Caribbean

    In this thread (which is fascinating BTW) I've seen several posters suggest this... shall we say Neo-Mayan civilization... would develop quarantine practices which would allow it to endure the onslaught of European-borne diseases. But do we know if the Mayans even knew what a quarantine was? I'm...
  2. The Last Ship (TNT Series)

    I like the show, but I'm not caught up with the latest episodes. I agree in that the writing is spotty, and so is the acting, but it's very enjoyable.
  3. Europa Universalis Timelines

    Well, the title should really read "Paradox Interactive games timelines", them being so similar and all. I got Victoria II about a year ago, and I enjoy it immensly, but I only acquired EUIV a few weeks back, and I'm hooked on it at the moment, particularly since at the moment I am most...
  4. Europa Universalis Timelines

    I don't know if this has been asked before, but has anyone posted a timeline inspired or based on an EU game? Sort of like a really detailed version of that "History" tab on the bottom. I'd like to know if there is some precedent for it, because I am interested in doing something like that...
  5. The Alawite State

    Sweet. I'll check it out.
  6. The Alawite State

    Cool, cool stuff. What's it centered on?
  7. The Alawite State

    Ooh I'd love to read a TL based around this independent Alawite State. I like Phoenicia. How about Levant? Or maybe something referencing Abraham. I wish I could be more helpful, but I basically just posted this to say I hope you write your TL and show us soon.
  8. Alternate Weapons of War thread...

    Matsuhiro Firearms's new Matsu300 series, from the universe on my sig. The Matsu300 is a polymer based semi-automatic pistol designed in 10,008. It is chambered in 8.6 x 18 mm. It possesses advanced networking capabilities, able to connect to personal computers, tables, smartphones and such...
  9. Alternate Weapons of War thread...

    Thanks, though my early attempts have been sloppy. This is a Matthews from "March...". It does not have a loading lever, but instead paper cartridges are used. Would it be possible to muzzle-load a paper casing without the lever? Would the chamber be sealed well enough considering the fit...
  10. Alternate Weapons of War thread...

    I've been working on more revolvers and I think this one is way better. This one is French-made, and was originally designed for civilian use, although the Petit Louvetier (little wolfhunter) is also used by law enforcement in the Western World due to it's reliability and practical size. It is...
  11. Rank Insignia and Uniforms Thread

    I like the upper one better. They're both pretty well done though.
  12. Alternate Weapons of War thread...

    Somewhat crude attempt to depict a revolver. I'll have to keep working on it, for example the cylinder turned out too large. Anyway, this is the Beretta AG 1852. It's a .45 caliber, and shoots pre-made paper cartridges. The cylinder carries 6 rounds and it has an effective range of around 60...
  13. Flag Thread IV

    The flag for the Human Confederation of Sovereign Planets. It's a tentative design for now. The Vitruvian Man is stylized to represent all of mankind. It has no discernible sex, no race. It stands for each and every human male, female and child. It was also chosen due to its associations with...
  14. Rank Insignia and Uniforms Thread

    Actually it is, thank you.
  15. Rank Insignia and Uniforms Thread

    I'd love to use it as a template when you're finished, if it's alright. You make some great unis.
