If there's one thing that movies and TV shows consistently get wrong about the military, it's radio chatter. This is annoying for a great many reasons, not in the least because I spend way too much time trying to break dumbass privates away from the bad habits they picked up playing Call of Duty...

Lirra, Underwater Hut Werah sat down, mind still reeling from the creature's words. "You...knew I was coming?", Werah asked nervously. "I KNOW EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS ON THIS PLANET. YOUR QUEST FOR TRUTH HAS LONG SINCE INTERESTED ME", boomed the voice in Werah's mind. Werah still felt shaken...

The Electromagnetic Pulse, or EMP, has something of a mythical status in science fiction as the all powerful killer of anything and everything electronic. Like most myths, however, a grain of truth has been buried under heaping mounds of horse crap. To understand exactly what an EMP does, we...

Lirra, Swamp Region Werah trudged through the swamp, making his way to the hidden pool that he knew existed. It was a good day: the sun was shining, the air was warm, and the horrid brown rain was notably absent. The mud squelched beneath his armoured feet, and Werah closed his eyes, using the...

Federation of the Caridan System Is the name of the now national government. Born from the unification war. The positions of the governments are its Chancellery, its President, the Chief Justicar, and the Council. The Chancellery and President share executive power. With the Chancellor...

Admittedly more fun than the 2014 original, this effort from producer Michael Bay and director Dave Green taps into all the elements that fans want to see from the ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ cartoon series and starts in a promising way, but it soon loses its fizz and becomes a uneventful...

I went into this knowing only what I’d picked up from the trailer, and I left feeling very entertained and quite moved. With the talented efforts of those behind and in front of the camera, this thriller isn’t over-long or over-complex or full of economical trading mumbo-jumbo that forces...

Below are the beginning and endgame units sizes and compositions for all recognized Republic Army units. Any player is welcomed to use these below at their digression save for Corp size and above as these require a lot of work to flesh out properly. We recommend once you have selected your unit...

Getting to Demonsgate is a bit of a challenge, for a variety of reasons. It's considered one of the most isolated places in the galaxy. Alec Rekali's expedition took 294 days to reach Demonsgate from Kal'Shebbol (the galaxy's gateway to the Kathol), but since a good portion of her work involved...

First and foremost, the overview from critics and the lacklustre trailers made me lower expectations for this installment. While I’ve not read many reviews, it was clear the reception was luke-warm, and add to the fact the trailers I found painted a confusing and messy narrative and style, I...

Given that it's my chosen profession, it struck me as odd that I've not done a write-up on artillery before. I mean, it's literally my job. I'm a POC chief in the North Carolina Army National Guard, and I have been for the last decade. It's sort of my thing. However, that oversight on my part...

Lirra, Outpost 1Werah nodded at his second-in-command, and pressed the button to open the gates. He stood in a huge open room, with many people bustling around, and large windows overlooking the orange sky, as the sun set behind the horizon. More delegates from another company, Werah couldn't...

This doesn’t need a long review in my opinion; it’s a very simple film, catering to very simple audience requirements. Opening to a quirky 'Once In A Lifetime' number, it tells us right away from our leading man's introduction what sort of films this is - light-hearted. First, we have Tom...

Based on Clone Wars era Jedi Kit Fisto's shared design, Nia followed the simple plans provided. The main difference being the use of a synthetic focusing crystal and, as yet, no inclusion of the bifurcating circuit (allowing for unimpeded underwater use). The hilt itself is 27 cm long and...

It was without much enthusiasm that I went to the cinemas today to see X-Men Apocalypse. I had loved First Class and somewhat enjoyed Days of Future Past, but the trailers for Apocalypse had not instilled me with a huge amount of confidence. Still, I was willing to give it a shot. I will not go...
