Brisa Chef 185mm with ivory paper micarta & Mexican blanket G-Carta. Shape/color inspiration from 70โs/80โs Japanese cars. Had to anneal the tang to drill new holes for the pin spacing to work. I left the scales about 1mm proud to preserve the oil spill coloration (last photo) on the tang. ๐ป๐ป

What is โlying flatโ, and why are Chinese officials standing up to it? Young people in China are embracing minimalist lifestyle and rejecting full-time jobs, marriage etc. The government censored the term โtang pingโ and even Xi Jinping condemned it, but the silent rebellion goes on.

How to unify China under the Qin (or Tang)?
Basically what the title says. Got bored of horde, was going through the releasables in Ming, and noticed that the both the Qin (original) and Tang (best, don't @ me) dynasties were available. Unfortunately, both have generic ideas and generic Chinese missions, with the Qin being marginally better with 3 provinces and the Tang holding one. Both are entirely landlocked by the Ming, preventing any further expansion, and neither have any great projects, though the Qin are close to the Great Wall. A Qin RP Unification of China run seemed hilarious to me, so uhhhh... any advice?

This is the weirdest mission I saw as a Chinese player. In case you don't know, in the Chinese novel Journey to the West, Xuan Zang (Also known as Tang Sanzang) was the master of the Monkey King, whose name is WuKong. Now I got an assassination mission from Xuan Zang to kill the Monkey King lol
