I wonder if anyone will come in here saying it's "too soon" for this kind of map. Which
mech unit is Lee Harvey Oswald? I didn't even know he was shot at an airport (I'm not
quite that old), so I sure don't know the layout. Maybe in the top left corner of the map
you should put some useless stranded land units to represent how useless the Warren
Commission was.
Xmo5 (08/11/2014 04:52pm):
I'm pretty sure JFK is the GS mech and the GS bomber is his limo. The YC recons are secret
service, trying to help JFK get to his limo and protecting him against Lee Harvey Oswald
(OS because he strikes first), his angry wife (PC mech), and a very jealous zombie Abraham
Lincoln (RF mech). The neutral 3rd party BM units are from Switzerland and they were there
to document everything for their own records.

Meanwhile, secret service left an opening from behind where a rogue TG plane (overcome by
the snakes on it) is moving in for an attack. Fortunately, the USS Enterprise (JS bomber)
saw this coming and has returned to Earth to try and cut the snakes off but might not make
it in time. To help outmaneuver the snakes on a TG plane, they also launched a manned
escape pod for assistance (JS copter). Somewhat less fortunately, the Corsairs of Umbar
(BH cruisers) attempt to intercept the escape pod before it can make it to the scene,
meaning things look pretty bleak.

Bleak, of course, if you don't account for Goku, Gohan, Goten (AB bombers), Vegeta,
Trunks, and Future Trunks (CI bombers) coming to assist the president. They also brought
along the Hulk, Green Lantern, and Jolly Green Giant (GE bombers and tcopter) on account
of the fact that the evil Dirty Bubble (BD bomber) and his infinite supply of pollution
(BD APC) were rampaging right through the middle of it all. Guess they should have
considered bringing Captain Planet instead.

There are also a few Purple Yohsis hanging around (PL) but nobody really knows what
they're doing there.

Also, despite the rest of the historical accuracy, JFK was not shot at the airport.
Everyone knows he died in Episode IV when the original Death Star blew up.
Nyvelion (08/11/2014 04:59pm):
Wow I really don't know history that well.
DASRTwelve (08/11/2014 09:05pm | Edited: 08/11/2014 09:05pm):
..and a few herp derps for Nyvelion!

JFK was shot at the not-airport
Xmo5 (08/12/2014 08:13am):
I'm pretty sure I covered that part already.
MorganLeah (08/12/2014 06:37pm):
What's a not-airport, again?
DASRTwelve (08/12/2014 06:58pm):
What's a question, again?
Xmo5 (08/13/2014 09:12am):
What's again?
Nyvelion (08/13/2014 11:23am):
Again?
Ninja_Weasel (08/13/2014 01:19pm):
?
MorganLeah (08/13/2014 09:53pm):

DASRTwelve (08/14/2014 02:32pm):
What's a comment, again?
Xmo5 (08/14/2014 03:42pm):
C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER!!

You win!
DASRTwelve (08/15/2014 09:50am):
Yay! I won!...
...
...
...what's winning, again?
Nyvelion (08/15/2014 09:55am | Edited: 08/15/2014 09:55am):
It's that thing that tryhards want to achieve.
Xmo5 (08/15/2014 11:18am):
Like Ash Ketchum
Nyvelion (07/21/2016 01:51pm):
Ugh yeah like him.
Wants to catch them all... what a tryhard.
Xmo5 (07/28/2016 02:20pm):
Indeed. He should get a metapod... oh wait, they had that episode.
Nyvelion (08/01/2016 09:39am):
Kakuna is better anyway. It uses Harden so much more effectively.
Xmo5 (08/08/2016 10:54am):
But I'd take Butterfree over Beedrill any day.

I still can't believe Ash was stupid enough to even consider trading his Butterfree for a
Raticate, what on Earth made him think that was a good idea?? His Butterfree even won the
battle, proving itself to be not only cuter and of greater personal value to Ash, but also
stronger than the Pokemon he traded it for! And! The guy was already of questionable
morality when he withdrew from the fight Butterfree clearly won to call it a "draw", but
had no issue with seriously, and maybe permanently, injuring the other guy's Starmie
(which, let's be honest, wouldn't actually happen...) just to show that he won the fight
before. Get your head in the game, Ash!!
Nyvelion (08/08/2016 11:55am):
I'm not very familiar with the cartoon, not much of a tv person actually outside of swords
and magic and dragons type fantasy.
But from that information, I find his decision making to be someone questionable. Does he
even want to be champion? Because he isn't going to do that with a rat-mon.
Xmo5 (08/08/2016 12:50pm):
Exactly. Who wants a freaking Raticate anyway??

Skip to 5:30, and then again to 9:25 after they call it a draw... unless you want to
listen to the mexican japanese salesman:

Nyvelion (08/14/2016 12:03pm):
I'm not sure how he even made it to the second town with that intellect.
Xmo5 (08/15/2016 07:31am):
I'm not sure how he made it anywhere... he's probably the dumbest underdog anime protagonist ever, even beating
out Naruto.
Nyvelion (08/15/2016 09:31am):
Naruto at least has a living Deus Ex Machina inside of him that allows him to punch his
problems to death. Ash is a just a normal human who is barely more capable than his
"Twitch plays Pokemon" counterpart.
Xmo5 (08/18/2016 11:01am):
And at least Naruto's Deus Ex Machina was pretty cool before it got drastically overused.
Ash was never cool... and also, definitely on par with TPP.

Second panel.
The others are good too if you're familiar with them, but pointing out the second one for now.
Xmo5 (08/21/2016 09:54am):
Haha yess. Never watched FMA or Sword Art, but I get the others.
Xmo5 (08/28/2016 09:55am):
Soon....
Xmo5 (08/28/2016 09:02pm):
F1RST P0ST FROM JFK INTL!!!1!11!!!
Nyvelion (09/22/2016 09:40am):
So that is a real place...
At first I thought, hold on, there were no airports back when Kennedy was president, that
can't be real, but then I realized... obviously there's nothing stopping them from later
inventing airplanes and airports and then naming it after him long after he died, so of
course there could be a place actually named that.
Xmo5 (09/24/2016 12:43am):
Yeah, I'm sure it was named after his death. They did have airports in JFK's day, though. He was president when
we got the whole "let's go to the moon" hard on; the "let's go to space" hard on was already in full swing by the time
he was elected. Someone had to show those dirty commies, right?
