    Imperial Invasion Force vs UNSC Division

    True. Well, I would propose: 344x M12 Light Reconnaissance Warthog, with Chaingun -- 114x M12A1 Rocket Warthog 28x M1261 Gauss Warthog 28x M12R Rocket Warthog 60x M831 Troop Transport 57x M914 Recovery Warthog I'll the recovery warthog to the total of 574, giving the UNSC a total of 631...

    Imperial Invasion Force vs UNSC Division

    Well, UNSC does make use of fighters, but being as they were unshielded, they were always easy pickings for the Covenant's point defense laser grid, which if I recall, was pretty accurate. I actually did check the ISB and it did give some information on some artillery. Specifically the Leveler...

    Imperial Invasion Force vs UNSC Division

    That's a good catch! Maybe the UNSC Army would have about 3x that force? So 900 Scorpions and 1,000 Warthogs? Probably a good deal of mongooses as well. That would also give them 360 pelican drop ships. I can't imagine they'd have a larger supply of Longsword fighters, but we can assume a...

    Imperial Invasion Force vs UNSC Division

    Scenario A UNSC world has come under the sight of the Empire. Say, shortly after the end of the UNSC-Covenant War (so, Halo 1-3 era tech). Imperial probes detected a significant military presence and sent a task force to take the planet. The invasion fleet suffered heavy losses, but a full...

    Armchair General's DonbAss Derailed Discussion Thread (Topics Include History, Traps, and the Ongoing Slavic Civil War plus much much more)

    Wait, are you telling me they fired a HIMARS at a base, knowing that there was a concert going on? Please tell me that's a joke. Because that's really fucked up.

    Russia(gate/bot) Russia-Ukraine War Politics Thread Mk. 2

    Genocide can be applied to a town, city, or province, with the intent of destroying a nation or ethnic group. So yes, it could be argued that Russian committed genocide. However, it should be noted that the Ukrainians are going to play up any massacre as genocide for political reasons...

    "TradWives" Triggering Unhappy Feminists

    I've seen a lot of those videos and while I don't disagree with the core points, this guy is basically just inviting really dumb whores on to his podcasts so he can humiliate them and offer little resistance to his talking points. I won't claim to have seen all his stuff, but why is it that I...

    Starfleet Ground Troops vs 40k Space Marines

    I had actually. Lasers are great, but one drawback is that they have no resting mass, so penetration power is basically non-existent. Lasers basically have to burn or melt their way through a material. That's where the concept of ablative armor comes in; the top layer of armor easily vaporizes...

    Starfleet Ground Troops vs 40k Space Marines

    To address: We saw Geordie and Data firing a phaser for almost a full minute on what was presumably maximum power. It suggests a 54.6 MJ power cell capacity at the lowest end (because they hadn't emptied the phaser rifle's power cell). Power conservation makes sense in some situations, where...

    Starfleet Ground Troops vs 40k Space Marines

    ...Yes, because Sisko wanted to talk with the Third. The vorta who'd sent the Jem'Hadar had ordered them to take that route to attack Sisko and his team. He gave Sisko the attack plan in advance, so Sisko could use the terrain to his advantage. Sisko had revealed himself to the Jem'Hadar...

    Starfleet Ground Troops vs 40k Space Marines

    You do, but writing as a medium often lends itself to exaggerated descriptions to form an image in the mind of the reader. That alone does not mean that high-end sort of stuff is wrong or even interpreted incorrectly. What it does mean, however, is that it is not a firm means of setting the tone...

    Starfleet Ground Troops vs 40k Space Marines

    I did look it up. This is the book, right? And yet, it says so much. Consider; they don't have to worry about actors getting hurt or being limited by experience or even a filming budget. Angels of Death looked to have about the same quality animation that Astartes did and there was nothing to...

    Starfleet Ground Troops vs 40k Space Marines

    Certainly an impressive shot, but wasn't that an Iron Warrior? A Chaos Marine? Is it at all possible that his skill at that range with a generic bolter is a result of a chaos boon? Regardless, I just watched Angels of Death and Iron Within. Both very good (and very interesting). There are at...

    Ah, so you can't win in an actual debate, so you're just going to rig the game.:sneaky:

    Lol, your SPASH MARINEZ are sterile. Much like some of its fanbase. 😂 :ROFLMAO: Kirk basically defined big dick energy, as did Sisko.

    Yeah, because that totes hurt my feelings. :rolleyes: I'm just saying, people seem to love the trash talk, but can't seem to debate it. You all feel like you have a low T count.
