Amarna from "Age of Mythology"

This is my interpretation of Amanra, the fleet-footed and agile Nubian warrior princess from the real-time strategy game Age of Mythology‘s single-player campaign. Not only was she fierce, courageous, and noble, but she had quite an attractive design (as far as computer-game characters with low-poly models from the early 2000s went). I truly think she is an underrated heroine!

Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin Promises to be a Triumphant Return of the Hero-Driven RTS | Steam Next Fest

The hero-driven real-time strategy(RTS) genre left an indelible mark on me at an early age. Warcraft 3 opened a whole new world ; I fell in love with its universe and story and gameplay, and had my first experience with the powerful sense of community a video game can create, in the best possible ways. I awaited its Reforged edition with the impatience of an abstinent drunk saving himself for the…

Unbalanced games

Here’s a hot take I’ve flirted with before: unbalanced games are more fun than balanced ones. I think it has to do with gaming a system, beyond even outplaying an opponent. Continue reading Untitled

The Making of Dune II

Despite its name suggesting otherwise, Dune II was a first – a real-time strategy game that sprang out of the box with almost every gameplay attribute and control system seen in every RTS since. In direct lineage, it was the father of the globally successful Command & Conquer franchise, in that its code was used as a basis of the first game of the series. Yet in terms of wider influence, the battles first fought out on the vibrant sands of Arrakis continue to echo through modern videogaming. While Dune II’s designer and programmer Joe Bostic humbly maintains that RTS games would have evolved eventually, with or without Dune II, the fact remains that he was instrumental in creating them. No Dune II, no Warcraft, no StarCraft and, arguably, a completely different timeline for global esports.

While we're talking about MHA, here's another headcanon: Tsu really loves strategy games, whether in tabletop game or video game form. She's painted her own figurines for various tabletop games, and as for the video games, it doesn't matter if they're turn-based or real-time.

Led a combined Kushite/Egyptian assault on Rome in Total War: Rome II today. My Egyptian allies didn't do so hot, but I was able to have my Kushite forces break in and lay waste to those greasy Romans in their own city!

(Honestly, Cleopatra and Amanirenas teaming up to eliminate the Roman threat once and for all would make a fun alt-history scenario.)

I think a lot about Leo standing up for his brothers in the things that really matter to them.

Like- Leo is the one who immediately pushes Mikey and Donnie into finding Raph the second it’s clear that their oldest brother is missing because he knows Raph can’t handle being separated like that.

Leo is the one who stands up for Mikey when Mikey wants to go on a solo mission, actively vouching for him and being the one to convince Raph into letting Mikey go, because being independent and proving himself just as capable of standing on his own two feet as everyone else means so much to Mikey.

And Leo defends Donnie’s honor in particular when his brothers’ intelligence is insulted because Leo is well aware of how important Donnie’s smarts are to him - and how important having those smarts valued and acknowledged is as well.

All this goes right into just how well Leo knows his brothers. For as much as he’ll tease or fight with them, he knows them, and he loves them.
