kerbiloid Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 (edited) First they have built L.A. which attracts invaders from all over the space in every second game or movie, then they start asking others for help... Can at least somebody without watching the wiki type from memory the full original name of L.A. which is the main aim of all alien invaders from space?

SOXBLOX Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 That sword isn't from the USSF.

You could still mirror polish it and it would look like an real sword and therefor so much better. Yes I get why larp swords has to be sword shaped foam bats but they are designed for mock fight between untrained people without serious protection. But this is not that setting, its an something used in an ceremony. On the other hand traditions are weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand The AF is also weird in that when the officers go off to battle, the enlisted guys wave good-bye... - offer does not apply to the guys stuck in land-based "logistics" and airbase protection.
