Licana on the M-21A2 MBT: "Well, it is one of the most badass tanks on NS."


Vortiaganica: Lamoni I understand fully, of course. The two (Lamoni & Lyras) are more inseparable than the Clinton family and politics.


Triplebaconation: Lamoni commands a quiet respect that carries its own authority. He is the Mandela of NS.

Ammunition supply-chain (6.5x55 Swede and .303 British, although available, isn't exactly everywhere)

I've put this poster here because they seem to be doing a sneaky drive-by ad for an alternative history game/project, disguised as a thread:
memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=1011134

Otherwise, their one post has an insuffient OP (in which case, I apologise in advance for posting it in the wrong thread).

I've copied the post rather than the nation (not sure if it's a joke or an ad). Completely new nation and their third post seems to link to something about washing lines, despite the post being about trees:
