GA-SEN 2020 Class III Megathread: She Who Loeffs Last

[GeneralMacArthur]

This looks like a Bud Light ad.

I am a single-issue voter and that single issue is the candidates' position on whether the sacking of Italy by Attilla, the scourge of God, was a good thing.

Who is this going to appeal to? I doubt that hicks would know about Attila the Hun.

It will appeal to conservative Age of Empires II players who played the Attila the Hun campaign

I was never a big fan of AOE2 campaigns but the original AOE2 metagame was completely dominated by the huns.  DE has added a bit more balance.

Which voters out there consider Attila the Hun to be a praiseworthy leader? Or Genghis Khan, for that matter? Intuitively it seems like the Roman Empire and Christendom would be more advantageous comparisons to make if you're dead set on appealing to conservative CK3 players for whatever reason.

I have a feeling a lot of people think Attila the Hun was a semi-mythical figure along the lines of King Arthur or Robin Hood, rather than an actual historical person whose existence and actions are well-attested.  

Most people think Attila the Hun is Genghis Khan, and that Genghis Khan is "badass guy on a horse who took over the world."

It's political malpractice that Loeffler hasn't been asked about QAnon yet.
