Mamoulian War

Russia made the same statement day before. 🤷‍♂️

International Human Rights Court has struck a case against Ukraine about oppresion of Russian language speakers. And blaming Ukraine for destruction of MH17. Russia ignored all requests by the court for “clarifications”, so the court “dismissed” it. I do not speak lawyerish, but this looks to me more as technical verdict, although with it, it has dismissed cases, which are not covered by other applications. Although, it is also written, that the court found no grounds relating to respect of human rights, to pursue in further examination of the case. https://hudoc.echr.coe.int/app/conversion/pdf/?library=ECHR&id=003-7706301-10639634&filename=Russia v.

Have you by any chance tried ou Xenonauts? Also Xenonauts 2 are very close to release. First game is closest game I’ve played to first two X-Coms by Microprose.

Girkin’s take on current status at battlefield. Very similar, to what ChrisO_wiki presented in his assessment, which I posted sooner.

I remeber how some people have been ridiculing the liberated land during offensive in Kherson a year ago. Now they are ridiculing it in Zaporizhzhia and Donetsk 🙂 Let’s hope, their current statements and predictions will age the same, as in autumn of last year 😁

During all of the kerfuffle around NATO summit, it have been pretty much lost, at least around here, that France will provide their SCALP/EG missiles to Ukraine (the same missile as Storm Shadow). I read somewhere, that unlike Storm Shadow, which has shorter and longer range variants (UA got the shorter range variant), these are manufactured only with the maximum range of 550km. Is this information correct, can’t find anything about them in a language, which I understand.

If you are wondering, what happens, if you have guts to not lie to Gerasimov 🤷‍♂️

RU Lieutenant General Deputy Commandern of Southern Military District has been slain in Berdyansk by Storm Shadow strike on a hotel used for accomodation of RU officer. It is rumoured, that he was not the only top cargo 200 in that hotel. https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/07/12/7411020/ edit: Tsokov.

Heh, if someone was wondering, how he was found so easily 🤦‍♂️ https://www.strava.com/activities/9400020178 Edit: LOL, one of the likes on this workout plan was by Kyrilo Budanov (chief of UA “CIA”) 🙈 (probably fake account, but fitting trolling for mass murderer)…

One of the RU commanders responsible for killing 27 civilians in Vinitsia with a missile attack aimed at the city square last year, has been found dead. He’s been shot while jogging in Krasnodar. https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/07/11/7410768/

Are you aware, that few month ago CDPR fully implemented ESG? 😅

This is made me chuckle. UA Naftogaz has started cases on US arbitration courts against RU Gazprom, that during the time, when they shot videos how the EU is gonna freeze, they did not move contracted volume of gas through Naftogaz pipelines, and are demanding compensation for breach of contract 🙈 Of course, Russia is already whining 🙈 Naftogaz has already won few billions from Russia, as a compensation for lost assets and revenue in Crimea. So I hope they will be successful with this as well. Nothing hurts Russian mobsters more, than losing money. https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/07/7/7410322/

And I was able to defeat last of the 4 big Spirits who came with light from Lenegis in Tales of Arise! The Sylph was the hardest of them all, and I have spent loads of items to stay alive. The reward was my 20th artifact, and the trademark Hot Spring Event 😆.

More Tales of Arise post game. Defeated “Night Blossom of Nevira” and Ultimate Zeugle super bosses. Built “ultimate” accessories for most of the party and cleared little bit of Training Grounds. I am missing last Super Boss (the wind spirit) and then I will unlock some new quests and grinding to max level 😩 We’ll see how “enjoyable” it will be in this game.

Finally I was able to find all hidden owls in Tales of Arise 😄 Got an Artifact as a reward 😄 The culprit was hidden behind one very powerful Gigant Zeugle, so I had to skip him for a veeeeery long time. Even today, the boss completely obliterated my party in the last phase of the fight, but I was able to finish his remaining 16k HPs with last Law standing, and thankfully I was able to outdodge his attacks and finally defeated him. The reward was last owl and last missing recipe in my cookbook 😛

Bought two Stalkers, which I was still missing in my collection, hopefully I will not be disappointed, when I get to play it in 2073 🤷‍♂️

12 is very strange game IMHO. When I played it for the first time, I hated it. On second playthrough, I really enjoyed it and had a lot of fun with it. Not in top 5 FF, but still fine. And on Zodiac Age playthrough, I had good time as well, but it felt less fun than the second time 😆

Booted up Tales of Arise after 3 months of break due to work and Assetto Corsa league. Before I will be able to start the post-game content, I have to finish some loose ends for which I was low level before defeating the last boss. One of them was Grand Gnome super boss, which have been defeated today

Another "hidden" giveaway 😛 Beholder 2 https://www.gog.com/game/beholder_2

Interesting analysis, theorycrafting and a little bit of speculation about the consequences of Prigozhin’s insurgency.
