The ship names are absurd lmao. HMS Chiddingfold and HMS Bangor.

It's not a real country. They don't deserve to issue their own currency, the EU needs to invade immediately and force the Euro on them.

same silly game with the USN's aircraft carriers 'useless future artificial reefs' i hear all the time (if they face a real opponent!) okay well i'm sure that's a great salve on all the dead from countries that weren't fair opponents? the game-changing hypersonics are literally only in countries the US was having a hard time bullying before those came out

I don't think the future artificial reefs thing is pointing out you're a moron if you get killed by an aircraft carrier, I'd argue it's exactly to point out they only work against enemies far removed from being peers as per military might.
