Isn’t that what the Romans did? In Greek mythology guys take random kids as their own all the time, I figured it was common back then, I’m certainly not talking about now.

It regularly gets -30 C in my area and sometimes down to -45 with the windchill. Not only have a few nog families moved in since I was young, but several spic, and gook ones too. The nearest big city is flooded with Indians, flips, chinks, and to a lesser extent niggers. I used to work with two Ethiopians and a bunch of flips and they had acclimatized by the time I started working there and even complained about the heat when it went from -35° up to -5° as I and other huwhites often do. I don’t think cold is too effective of a barrier, for brown.

No, I thought that in Anciet Rome people often raised random orphaned kids or took the babies of people’s they conquered to raise as their own. I don’t know where I got that idea or if I read it somewhere but I thought that was fairly common back then.

One caveat I would add is I highly suggest their caperka. I enjoy it so much I already bought a second as a gift. It works very well as a hatchet, shovel, and the front edges can be used as a knife. Handle and balance feel good, as well.

They indoctrinated child heirs of the local nobility to be good goys.
Took after Alexander's policy to let the old bureaucracy allow to exist.
Problem is that there is a difference between hereditary and other forms of appointment.
Would've been better off completely wiping out the conquered nobility from the beginning.
Teutoburg may have been avoided.

What are you gay? But would the throwing distance be worthwhile? Rifle grenades are pretty much dead but I suppose grenade launchers handle pretty much any longer distance booming you need done so an extra ~10% (pulling this number out of my ass) distance probably isn’t really worth the extra material nor would the extra material becoming fragments really make a difference either I think.

At least from what niggerpedia had to say. Realistically speaking, the blast is going to be smaller, but if you have enough to frag every single room you enter, there's some value in the quantity you can carry alone.

These mini-grenades have around 300 frags vs 1500 frags of M67. Area of sphere grows as squares of teh radius so its approximately 2.2 times difference with M67 radius. Same frag density M67 produces at 15 meters min-grande would make at 6.8 meters.
Also should be noted that M67 is very powerful frag grenade with fragmentation power of 85mm WWII artillery round, outdated grenades (liek Russian) are much much weaker.

Olympic saber fencing uses basically lightweight toy, which doesn't translate to real techniques.
It's like kendo to kenjutsu.

So if I wanted to locate a real saber club/school, how would I differentiate between the two? Would they call themselves historical/HEMA/renaissance/etc or any other terms that would make identification easier?

Basically, if they use a foil to train, and never change to at least blunt steel sabers, it's useless.
For actual guilds, there are polish saber school and there is HEMA that teaches saber fighting.
