Im 7000-8000 solo player. Some of you are cookin, thanks for that. Playing on phone so sorry for all of ya' for the crappy pings.
Is it possible that the lag I have comes for the performance of my computer? It's almost impossible to get out fast turns when using brand like I see on youtube videos. I have a 60ms ping.
That's all. Just some math. Thanks Quora.
I just want to show my board and ask a question about it....
Sinstone doesn’t copy the murlocs that are “discovered” from this combination.
It feels like a 1 in a million, but does anyone know the actual odds of getting Bob's Burgles the turn after fighting Cookie with his buddy while playing as Master Nguyen?
check this new montage
Does Eudora’s power give you a minion from any tavern tier? Or up to your tavern tier ?
There's this free to play game on steam about the American revolution and I was wondering if anyone knows about the three cuff rank colours/button available to the regular soldier for both teams
Ignorem minha voz horrivel. Nesse vídeo eu e um amigo pegamos os 2 primeiros lugares no battlegrounds e vendemos todas as nossas unidades, aparentemente o jogo não eh infinito hauahauahauaha, o importante eh que ele ia ganhar se tivéssemos jogado normalmente, mas só digo uma coisa... easy win.
You know I’ve been getting into Hearthstone battlegrounds recently and I was wanting a subreddit to join to see battlegrounds related content.
I saw another post several days ago talking about one of the cards that is in Battlegrounds (Arcane Cannon) and I enjoyed seeing what was said by a fellow player.
This subreddit seems somewhat dead and I respect that it is related to another topic about actual war. But maybe it could be refurbished to HS Battlegrounds where posts and clips can be made relating to the game mode while also being easily searchable for Battleground players.
It's a strong card that adds a ton of RNG to the game. If you have it and you get sniped it's feels bad.
Playing against it feels bad with the random shots going off. Same strat just hoping you snipe it.
Playing cannon vs cannon is a clown fiesta of RNG.
it's not even a good pirate card. It doesn't make it to late game pirates and only has minor synergy early and mid.
Prelude:
April 1509, a French army under the command of Louis XII invaded Venetian territory. To oppose the advance, Venice amassed a mercenary army near Bergamo, commanded by the Orsini cousins.
By May, Louis had crossed the Adda River at ther Orsini cousins (Alviano and Pitigliano) disagreed on how to deal with Louis. They decided to move south, despite Alviano's will to attack the French troops.
Battle:
On 14 May, as the Venetian army moved south, Alviano's rearguard, commanded by Piero del Monte and Saccoccio da Spoleto, was attacked by a French detachment under the Charles II d'Amboise, who had massed his troops around the village of Agnadello.
Alviano, who was at Pandino, hurried back to position his forces of ~8,000 on a ridge overlooking some vineyards.
Charles II (Govenor of Milan) attempted to attack, first with cavalry and then with Swiss pikemen, but the French were forced to march up a hillside crossed with irrigation ditches, which were soon filled with mud from the pouring rain, they were unable to initially breach the Venetian lines.
Pitigliano refused to come to the aid of the advance guard, effectively dooming Alviano's men. The Venetian levies suffered heavy losses during the battle, and Alviano's own infantry unit, from Brisighella, was almost annihilated. The advance guard was eventually defeated and Alviano himself was captured.
Pitigliano managed to retreat with the main body of men at arms, but most of the rest of the army broke and fled. The French captured 36 guns, a sign of the size of their victory.
Aftermath:
In the aftermath of this defeat the Republic rapidly withdrew from Bergamo, Brescia, Crema and Cremona, all of which were taken by the French. They evacuated their possessions in the Romagna, which were taken over by the Pope.
During the resulting War of the Holy League (1510-1514) the Venetians were able to regain many of their losses of 1509, although the Republic never quite regained the position of power it had held before the battle.

Hello All,
As some of you may have noticed, this sub has been cleaned out, all of the old posts are gone, the old rules are gone, the old mods are (mostly) gone, everything is gone.
That is because this sub has been re-purposed, A couple months ago it was decided that Reddit did not need 3 PUBG related subs, as such I asked to take r/battlegrounds and create a military tactics and history subreddit, the request was graciously approved, and work began.
From this day, posts related to PUBG are to no longer approved, all posts must pertain to a historical IRL battle, which would be the topic of discussion for said post. For posts regarding PUBG please head over to the primary PUBG sub r/PUBattlegrounds
A post should follow something similar to the below format:
TITLE: The Battle on the Chateauguay, War of 1812, Yr. 1812
BODY: A synopsis of the battle, including lead up, results, and reprecussions. Links to any Maps or Pictures, that are not part of the sources.
Sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_the_Chateauguay
This sub is simply becoming a place to foster discussion and learning between like minded individuals who enjoy talking about military history.
If anyone has any questions regarding the new subreddit you can leave a comment here, are simply message the mods.
Thanks all,
u/thegreatlordlucifer
