    Tanya’s Hogwarts Adventures (Youjo Senki, Harry Potter)

    Sounds fishy to me, animals are always drained of blood when butchered. Also raw meat is very rare, because humans are not made for eating raw food. Out digestive system is highly dependent on cooking, both for meat and vegetables.

    Childhood friend of a Dark Lord (YS x HP)

    There is no single chinese language, there are actually dozens of them that use a common set of logograms for writing. The official transliterations usually come from orientalists during the 1800s and are long overdue for replacement.

    Childhood friend of a Dark Lord (YS x HP)

    Sears only declined because they missed the fact that the mail order catalogue business model was going to be place with online ordering business model. If they hadn't missed that transition, it is very likely Amazon would not exist.

    Built To Last

    I have never seen a fic where Fortuna used a Florida-man to dispose of coil before.

    Built To Last

    Its murder is not based on clinical death, its based on legal death (dead and gone). This means it would be attempted murder. There is plenty of legal precedent with the resuscitation of someone who was clinically dead (heart stopped, etc) even in RL, even with parahuman shenanigans that would...

    Built To Last

    In the US murder requires permanent death. So this would get reduced to attempted murder (which would likely have been part of the case as a lesser included charge).

    Built To Last

    I just realized that Ruggedizer actually has the tinker power perfect for making a ClF3 Flame thrower. The only problem with weaponizing that is getting it to not destroy whatever you deploy it with.

    Crossing Borders, a Youjo Senki/Strike Witches crossover

    This is a very common misconception. The closest thing to a genocide of the Aztecs was the Native allies taking revenge, which is completely reasonable given the generations of human sacrifice and cannibalism they had suffered. The Conquistadors actually tried to stop the attacks on civilians...

    Plausible wanks for small and very small countries.

    Also, small nations can be transient powers, see Portugal. They had a massive colonial Empire for some time, but as soon as colonialism died they faded from relevance.

    Plausible wanks for small and very small countries.

    Small nations positioned on good trade routes have the potential to grow like British Empire did. You just need to give them a decent iron deposit, otherwise they can't really support themselves in a war passed neolithic era. Bronze requires two different metals that don't form deposits near...

    Tanya’s Hogwarts Adventures (Youjo Senki, Harry Potter)

    Ah, Tanya is teaching Draco how to act his class with a little help from Dumbledore.

    Tanya’s Hogwarts Adventures (Youjo Senki, Harry Potter)

    I love how wholesome Tanya's misunderstanding field is in this fic. She got snape out of rut with the Drama club and Dumbledore is so happy that he gets more opportunities to play grandfather with his students.

    New Dawn in the Sun's (Battletech AU)

    Primitive engines have the same space requirement, just weigh more. For the Witworth, you either free up two extra tons to keep the speed the same, or switch to a 120 equivalent primitive engine and gain an extra ton to work with.

    New Dawn in the Sun's (Battletech AU)

    This reminds me of how I noticed you can make a fairly decent warship by using a primitive jump core and dropping the jump range to the minimum. Without docking collars or strategic speed it would be far less threatening than a warship with a compact core while still adding the defensive value...

    Battletech: The Ghost Who Walks (Battletech Isekai)

    If you compare the performance of a thunderbolt-20 to the Arrow-IV, there is a massive difference between the performance of the propulsion systems. The warhead is also much more impressive, doing 20pt AOE rather than 20pt direct fire, the latter is far less energetic even if more effective...

    Transcending The Jiang Hu (Generic Xianxia Cultivation)

    Or a gift from a legendary artificer for one of his apprentices, or an apprentice of one of his close friends.

    Tanya’s Hogwarts Adventures (Youjo Senki, Harry Potter)

    Tanya pushing Ron forward to be his best self is something really unique this fic has done. She has really given the one thing he lacked the most in life: drive to pursue his dreams rather than to merely desire them.

    Battletech: The Ghost Who Walks (Battletech Isekai)

    The problem is that the economic and population collapse going on for the last century prevents them from doing that. Your artisans could either be maintaining a planets tractors to keep them from starving to death, or the could build a Gauss riffle. The planets of hats economic planning has...

    Battletech: The Ghost Who Walks (Battletech Isekai)

    Its probably a matter of that while they understand the technology itself, they have lost the technology used to bring it to mass production. So you could have a college professor build one with a team of artisans, but they are doing half the work be hand so you are only going to get one Gauss...

    Battletech: The Ghost Who Walks (Battletech Isekai)

    I've never seen narc as worth the trouble, however a vehicular mine dispenser weights only half a ton for two minefields. A remote sensor dispenser weighs half a ton and includes thirty reloads.
