Well it was 50/50 for 10 seconds.
So far it is 75% in favor of walkers counting as vehicles.

Suppose we have a breakthrough in physics, and discover a way to connect two points in space permanently via a complicated process involving a particle accelerator. Much like a wormhole, except it doesn't involved "hyperspace" or a 4th dimension; there is no tunnel or tube space between the "entrance/exit". You've simply made a portal that allows you to walk from your DC to London in a single step.
Portals can be any size, but larger ones require more resources. They can only be moved if connected to a particle accelerator beam.
What technology can you engineer with this, assuming the process is miniaturized and the expense comes down? What would the world look like? I'm looking for practicality most of all, but also clever exploits.

Obviously we'd have free energy.
>place two portals side by side on a flat surface.

On a large enough scale this could produce significant power.

Read Hyperion.
In it, mankind invents AI, and that AI invents a bunch of other sweet shit for us including Farcasters. Farcasters are, essentially, what you have described.
All of the many worlds that have Farcasters linking them together are called the World Web. Its so densely linked that you have people with 'apartments' that have rooms in different solar systems.
The only downside is that you have to physically build both ends of the farcaster link. So you need someone to hoof it all the way to a new planet to set up the first farcaster, but after that you can populate the new planet as easily as getting on an elevator.
>>
>>50704033
Couldn't you just build two connected Farcasters initially then launch one at the desired planet, thus eliminating the need for a manned flight?

Okay, that makes more sense.
If you want to get scientific about it, *the* sun is not a good object to be turned into a black hole if you want to travel through that hole.
The sun is too small. It would rip you apart before you'd close enough.
But feel free to ignore this.

I run a very strong Brago list, but it has the same problem that every Brago deck does: it's incredibly boring.
What should I convert it to that's slightly less reliant on the commander? GAAIV seems like a good choice, but I'd be willing to go tricolour if the deck is fun enough. I'm just looking for a deck that will slowly make people lose their will to live, but wont fold the second the commander is countered twice.

I'll say that it's still amazing that GW is actually starting to look like a modern day game company. The idea that they would have a Twitch stream even just a year ago would be hysterically absurd.
It doesn't compel me to buy into AoS or go back to 40K, but I can at least recognize the improvements.

Well, still enricotherium, but yes, that was generally where I got the knuckle walking idea from.
I just want to see a huge race in pathfinder (seriously, how would you even play that?), that being said, if they walk on their knuckles, what would their tech look like? How would they even function in a party of adventurers?

>>50696180
Their weapons would probably be less for attacking other creatures of their size and more for swatting away the pesky medium sized enemies below them.

Reasonably. I go for what looks cool first, then take out anything that's glaringly unrealistic. Though the armor isn't really based on European plate armor, taking more inspiration from the Romans, imperial China, feudal Japan, and a few other cultures.
So, like, the helmets might not cover their head as thoroughly as it should, but there's not too many unnecessary flourishes.
>>50646352
Real-world owls do that. Lots of cultures do things that other cultures think are weird, so why not?
>>
>>50647148
Wait, real-world owls have decorations?
>>
>>50647148
Two points: real-human-hair-wigs were high fashion in some places in some times, and unless they used feathers from their own species it would be more like humans using other animals furs as decoration, which always has been done everywhere.

Sadly pretty typical for the IS-2s; even if they miraculously don't take any effective fire, they still end up not really doing anything. Defence is kind of their ideal.
Also your magic number for withdrawal is 5 platoons, so even if the T-34s hadn't died he wouldn't have withdrawn anything for another turn.

Withdrawing starts on turn 3. He had 4 platoons, so he got a counter. Turn 4, he had 3 platoons and a counter, which is less than 5, so he got another counter. Turn 5 he would have had 2 platoons and 2 counters, again less than 5. If he kept the last two IS-2s alive till turn 6, he would have finally had to withdraw a platoon. But we didn't get that far due to time.
