Yay! Updatez! Keep up the good work, Fox!

[KA101]

Just grabbed the update.  Looking forward to it.  Thanks, Fox.

Random OCD moment: Fox, you need to change your sig.

I have a minor suggestion about the free speech laws.

Given the over -the -top nature of L+ laws, free speech doesn't seem appropriate. I would propose this alternative:

C+:1984 style doublethink is imposed
C: expletives and blasphemy are outlawed
M: strong expletives are banned from newspapers
L: all speech is permitted and protected
L+: oppressive speech is banned (e.g. Gender neutral pronouns such as hir must me used)

Are we ever going to get more military weapons? I imagine that when 6 libs with machine guns and ceramic body armor are mowing down soldiers, they're going to go straight to RPGs and small missiles launched from combat helicopters. Darn, now I want a Liberal Helicopter Squad with Apache Longbows. Anyway, we should at least get some sort of explosives to take care of tanks.

ed boy: I don't know, dude. L+ country is supposed to be this LIBERAL UTOPIA that turned out to be everything the revolutionaries ever hoped for with no drawbacks whatsoever. Also, of the newspaper events actually talks about how "free speech advocates fight to allow white supremacist rally", so banning offensive speech really wouldn't fit the theme.

Instead, I propose that at L+ free speech, graffiti becomes legal. Painting slogans on other peoples walls is a valid form of expression, man.

Explosives? We don't need explosives.

That was the first and only attack I made on that tank.

Not everyone can be gods of death and war though Grim, if you get an unlucky roll and a tag rules up when you're not prepared everyone in the safehouse is fucked. And if you're bad enough to reason a tank the justice system isn't going to be any less deadly than an M1 Abrims.

[Jonathan S. Fox]

Daaamn, Grimith. I didn't know that was possible.

[Jboy2000000]

Daaamn, Grimith. I didn't know that was possible.

I think he did that twice in his first playthrough, and I think once in his second one. We'll see how awesome he can be in LCS^3.

[tahujdt]

Daaamn, Grimith. I didn't know that was possible.

Happened to me before, but only with (literally) 6 dozen libs with M16s shooting it for a while. Maybe make it so that, instead of soldiers having them, you get rockets from tanks.

[Jboy2000000]

Oh, or maybe you can have a chance of getting them from the armory.

[Grimith]

Daaamn, Grimith. I didn't know that was possible.

You actually did, JSF, and merely forgot. If you check the forum topic from which I quoted that...

There is conservative art buried in the walls! 

I don't think the Liberal Crime Squad needs more firepower to destroy M1 Abrams Tanks. If anything, the Conservatives needs more firepower to destroy Elite Liberals. Addressing Jboy, I've destroyed a hell of a lot more than three tanks in the two LCS series I made back in 2010 and in 2012.

Heck, at the start of that video alone, I destroyed two tanks in a single encounter. They were supported by a Guard Dog. Naturally, my Liberals at the time were very skilled, but they were also very hurt. The 2012 series in particular, if memory serves, just shows me crushing tanks over and over again.

The moral of the story is that Elite Liberals can do anything they put their minds to.

Now, granted, this was with version 4.04.0. If something's changed in tank fisticuffs between now and then, then this might not be repeatable. However, I started a new series of LCS (with 4.06.4 instead of 4.06.5) just last week, so I'll test it out for sure. I'll get back to you all on how many M1 Abrams I steamroll during the playthrough.

for some reason the game no longer saves. when i exit its gone

[MetalSlimeHunt]

Jonathan, having thought about it, I think it might be a good idea to return Business and Religion to being capped by Wisdom. See, Business and Religion being a kind of "forbidden skill" to Liberals improves the game because it acts as a stopgap against enlightening very powerful conservatives. You have to go through the effort to find someone wised enough but whom you can enlighten before being able to get the CEO and other Important Conservatives, since Religion and Business defenses are perfect otherwise.
