You could still have top brass baddies on the Souther side.
One of the reasons why Jaegir is so good - it muddies the waters.
Quote from: Funt Solo on 28 March, 2024, 05:10:39 PMRogue Trooper gets criticized for its naming conventions: the guy in the bag is Bagman etc. It seems too unrealistic, they say.
But a man called "Bankman-Fried" just got 25 years for running a crypto-Ponzi scheme. The most famous case before that was Bernie Madoff (who made-off with other people's money). Lou Pearlman stole everyone's pearls. Gerald Payne got 27 years, which had to hurt. Don't even get me started on Charles Ponzi!

Nah, Dredd inferred his logic earlier in the story: a heatseeker would have done the job. I don't think he's impressed by showboating; he wants someone who knows their duty.
Quote from: JayzusB.Christ on 22 March, 2024, 03:54:13 PMTotally agree, and what you said on Robin's thread.Quote from: Proudhuff on 20 March, 2024, 02:53:31 PMWell Debbie Harry was Anderson...
... who now looks younger than Debbie Harry did when she inspired Bolland to create the character's look. They're only pictures in a comic, I know, but it gets on my wick something rotten.

Quote from: The Legendary Shark on 01 February, 2024, 05:59:08 PMTo bring this discussion back to an entirely more boring dimension, I was thinking about the problematic names and whether some tortured rationalisation might be found to keep them in the story.
So, how about a unit of deep-penetration soldiers, specialised in making lone forays deep inside enemy lines
