Horrible.  Some reports are saying the ship may have lost power.

It's unfortunate Ukraine's summer offensive didn't get into artillery range of the transport links from Rostov to Southern Ukraine.  A little easier for Russia to get supplies to its offensive at Avdiivka.

Use eclipse glasses that complies with the ISO 12312-2 intnational standard when viewing any solar eclipse. Also, don't take photos with your cell phone or camera unless it has an appropriate filter on it (unless you want an excuse to your wife  to justify buying a replacement)  :evil:

The Russians need to move a lot of material around to keep the front supplied
Much like their economy the war is very brittle and when it collapses it will probably be across a wide front
The infrastructure hits have also included trains and bridges so logistics is getting harder and harder 
With the Russians not using the Kerch bridge for supplies their landing ships are a key resource that can be used anywhere there is a suitable beach not just at ports 
Now almost half those ships are gone
Will this be the straw that breaks it open?

I was in a similar spot, reminiscing about the good ol' days of D2 but unsure if D3 was worth the plunge. And hey, I hear you on the clickity-clickity gameplay. It can feel a bit repetitive after a while, especially with so many other engaging titles available. Sometimes a bit of mindless demon-slaying is just what the doctor ordered, right? And with the sale going on, it's a pretty sweet deal. Plus, with Diablo IV on the horizon, it could be a good way to dip your toes back into the franchise and see if it still tickles your fancy.

Quote from: FarAway Sooner on March 25, 2024, 11:01:25 PMI'm not sure I understand the strategic value of further degrading Russia's Black Sea fleet.  It's already in a world of hurt and not even safe in its own harbors.  Are they simply trying to keep them locked up in port around the clock?
What else would they use the seaborne drones for? Also - yeah, it's still bad news (not that most Russians would perhaps hear about it) but maybe it does keep them bottled up and allows their ships to get out and into the world.
