Its also def a depth issue which we have Sherman to blame STILL 5 years in , you can ' t blame the previous coach for a lack of depth . <| sep |> That ' s a great link thanks . <| sep |> Everybody who pays attention to KH reacting to EC saying some stuff at a Comic Con when he thinks that he is not recorded knows , that he won ' t even like this boat thing he has to do . So much about this rumour . <| sep |> The first generation of European gunpowder weapons was near disastrous . And that was always going to be the case , but the first nation with semistable gunpowder weapons would have a significant advantage . Marcus Aurelius was a general when he needed to be , and his war against the Parthians would have been a wild success , rather than hard fighting to victory in the end . The Germans , who had been a thorn on Rome ' s northern border could have been slowly exterminated by attrition . This expansion would have held longer , as gunpowder was just too strong from melee attacks . Rome might have been able to follow Alexander the Great ' s expansion , as being able to move into the Indian Subcontinent .
