The Baltic States could be happier, but Russia doesn't get looted and run down like it did in real life so they're not as unhappy as they could be. Also, their ethnic minorities are happier since the Baltic States loose the opportunity to be dicks to them.
Then they're still very unhappy, because they did not like being conquered provinces of the Russian Empire. And I'm not excusing the actions of the Baltic governments, they have behaved very badly towards the Russian minority, but consider this in the eyes of the Baltics the Russians there are all setters of a conquering power. It's kinda how white settlers would have been treated if the Sioux or Cherokee had managed to fight off the United States. That doesn't justify it but context is important if nothing else without the context you can't solve the problem.

I'm not saying its sweetness and light, I'm saying that the Soviet Union survives and that its internal ethnic problems are less serious than they are in our world.

Considering the lives lost in the Serb/Croatia conflict, I'll take Russia.

And YES YES YES! Taskmaster is just as badass as expected. Less than 24 hours to break Penumbra and stage an attack on the bases!

Light to Burning Lasers ... nasty. Sonic booms by shouting, very nasty.

And a God-Complex, or at least the thought God chose him for a Mission.

I wonder how many Meta's decide that God himself gave them their powers for a reason.

Power Monger might be someone you'd want to try to turn to your side, honestly. Don't know if you can, though.

Hopefully we get more background on the Centurion. He seems like an interesting fellow :D.

I'm surprised he doesn't have every historian in the world badgering him.

I'm still highly amused that this was one mission Blackheart did NOT wind up in the hospital over :twisted:

The Centurian is interesting. I wonder what he'll have to teach Blackheart.

So, now the Russians are in on this massive manhunt for Black Arion, and I really doubt they'll want Taskmaster's Best butting in.

This is going to get sticky, isn't it.

Well to be fair to Paul (man between that name and the navi's I'm getting heavy Dune vibes) his crew is likely better then a prison swept navy crew. Just like the damn squids to use jail rats to. Still if there are enough women on the ship things should remain at a low simmer.

Just how long does a Imperium navy ship stay on a cruise?

Depends on the Warp, I'd say. After all, a trip through the Warp can take hours, days, weeks, months, or years.

So these girls will be making life long contracts then.

Imperial ships tend to take cruises for many months, with some brief stop overs. The Dune homage is intentional, since 40K steals from Dune. The women will have multiyear contracts, counted in ship time (since time passes differently in the warp).

Finished the WWII story... Oh fucking hell. Black intends to storms the gates of heaven and hell it seems.

Also.

Sounds like Blast, alright. However, I think Lange's only hit the tip of the iceberg with Black's 'meglomania'.
