It wasn't even the Saxons that moved. In term of German "tribes", modern Saxony was settled by Thuringians. It was literally the name moving through Germany through the centuries.

Shoots Tiger tanks? As in, "Tiger tanks are the target" or as in "Tiger tanks are the bullets"?

Well then. Finished here it seems....

I suppose I'll give A Crown of Stars a try then....
...no wait. If people go read ACoS because of lacking updates here, that'll incentive Strygpia to not update here. What do?
Yeah, of course that joke had to come from The Englanderish...Hey guys, guess what!

I also used to be in an Armor Battalion.
I had an M41 Walker-Bulldog outside my office for 5 years, and drove past this on the way to work:

Easy. I update both. Also, ACoS is even longer than A&T. It'll keep you busy for a bit. Although... I've been working flat out on A&T and neglected ACoS for a month. May be time to work on that again, since it's 95% complete now...

I'm feeling too lazy to separate out the panel. The middle one is my reaction:

Careful. She might decide to 'accidentally' sit on something important. Better give her something

That is all.
Why wouldn't the first instinct be to hit the big red button if it looks like a test is going sour?
Would it matter if Rei pulled Asuka aside and explained, in detail, that she has forgiven the good doctor and that she believes Akagi is genuinely to make amends? Or is it a matter of "You hurt my friend. I'll save you life because I'm a Big Damn Hero and that's what I do, but I wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire."
Pay no mind to the tank outside your house then.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I humbly suggest that you set your Way-Back Machines to 1944 and direct your attention to the
Thanks, I was just about to ask what that platform was.
And the characteristic slabs of laminated armor.
Forgot @Strypgia's request that we keep the thread Eva related, but don't have the heart to delete the rest of my post.
The some of best staging I've ever seen for military vehicles was at the Pennsylvania Military Museum, in Boalsburg. The M60 was particularly well done. It was on a concrete slab with one corner tilted maybe 6-8 inches, so the tank was sitting nose down and canted a couple degrees to one side. The turret was cranked off to the side and the gun was elevated so it was horizontal. The curved path from the parking lot wound its way around a thick copse of trees. The building, and the tank in front of it come into view rather suddenly once you round the stand of trees. Oh, and by the way, the gun is now aiming at you! It's still static display, but the staging is very dynamic. There are many vehicles staged very simply on tarmac with a placard, but their M4 is kinda buried in a somewhat Ardennes-like patch of woods.
