Dying Light - Humanity's Last Stand

@Inertia Because promises made to Stalin during the Second World War were not delivered on and it made Stalin paranoid and suspicious. The Americans in turn didn't enjoy what the Soviets did after the end of the war and their general policy of disliking Communism didn't help much either.

(Stalin asked and was promised a second front to open in 1942, he waited as more and more Russians died. Then he asked again in 1943, again the allies promised him a second front would be opened soon. More Russians died yet again, empty promises.) Some people even speculate that the allies did this on purpose to weaken both powers enough so that things would go more in their favour, yet Soviet Russia had some real ass kicking abilities.

Not counting Italy because it didn't really put much pressure on the Germans untill later. (D-Day in France.)

Edit: Stalin was already paranoid and suspicious, the allies just poured on top of that. But you can't blame him, look up Operation Unthinkable for an interesting read.

Lets talk history, a subject I know lots and lots about. :D

Dying Light - Humanity's Last Stand

@Rae Zer That's better.

Had to go to the hospital really early in another town today, got back around 12 and had an appointment to get my hair cut afterwards (Looking fly), need to make a post but i'm not really feeling it right now. Maybe tonight.

@Pripovednik Not really a nerd, I just have basic knowledge about first aid. He'll knock me out of the park with actual virus knowledge, how they work and what not. I however do have the common knowledge of treating infections, wounds and what not.

Dying Light - Humanity's Last Stand

@Rae Zer So far i'm seeing common knowledge more then ''walking encyclopedia.'' So I challenge you to provide me with something I did not know yet. :) (All fun and games of course, not hating.)

I would like to remind everyone that fast infected are quite common in our roleplay. So far i'm only seeing posts including the slow infected. Fast infected can sprint, faster then you even. And they can scale small obstacles and climb up things faster.

Basically, even entering a store can become a clusterfuck if you encounter one or two of the fast ones. Personally I think I could kill a normal walker in real life, but if one of them comes sprinting at me then i'm going to need a change of pants. :P

Dying Light - Humanity's Last Stand

@Pripovednik Correct.

I will do a second round of events a bit later today. And I'll see about getting another post up of my own.

@Rae Zer I live right next to a lake, well in a town connected to it. There are plenty of boats here and the population isn't to high. I would be alright. My country all though small also has the second highest agriculture output in the world. (We have some 16.9 million people here in an area the size of 16,033 sq miles.) I also have easy acess to a bunch of islands only acessable by boat.

My country has a lot of farm land, and farm land comes with lots of those small ditches with water, to carry the rain. Thus a lot of natural obstacles for the infected. The geography is also 100% flat like a pancake and heavily favours the defender all together. I reckon my country's army can knock this thing out rather quickly
