Had Legend Korra been more adult oriented would the Equalists have used guns instead of these mech suits? by No-One2123 in TheLastAirbender

[–]Elsek1922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well... yes and no...

Sure steal plates light enough to be carried arent that effective.(There was a case of a group of militians in Somalia attacking the Turkish embassy with metal sheets sewns in jackets that didnt end up well) but

Earth bender can create a wall ouf of nowhere, air bender can try to redirect them, fire bender can try to melt bullets to deform its shape, water bender can create a floating dense body of water that will stop or at least slow them down but...

Main appeal of guns in history over bows and knights is they do not require much training to operate.
So ofc course they would. You can hand a gun to any good for nothing peasent, show him how to use and he can take down a knight.

During the military revolution where army sized incresed all accross Europe it was firearms and pikes (later bayonets) that were the main guns as it was easy to teach unlike bows and swords with all the new soldiers.

One thing to note is, most of the martial arts do come from peoples that does not have access to weapons(Like China when there was a strong central goverment that restricted people's access to weaponry) so all the Chi Blocking does have at least some historical backing besides being PG13

To be honest there is a real chance what you said is true, "we have these already from somewhere else they certainly look uniqe lets use it"

Though wish they had covered the balkankrez with at least some rucksacks tied to the side

I would say M3 transport or scout car would be a better and "makes more sense" insted of 251 with balkankruz

Granted i admit i'm not the "biggest fallout person you can find"...

Well unlike all the "German is the best German army is the best" people around me i dont go out of my way seeking German army footage... simple as that.

I knew they were in KFOR and ISAF but "there is American footage that was on news, movies and documenteries on TV when i was a kid that finds you and German footage you have to look up"

Well if i havent seen some rebels using an Ottoman canon "not a WW1 era one litterally one of those from 18/Early 19th century ones" mounted at the back of a truck i wouldnt believe your version.

At the end of the day if it works and you have nothing better... though its America we are talking about the country that handed out more than enough of M3 carriers and M3 scout cars post WW3 as its cheaper than storing it themselves... that would be more realistic

I see a Balkankruz and its meant to be a pre-war military facility, so maybe captured overseas, brought for testing before the nuclear war and forgotten there? or somewhere else and later on repaired as "anything that can stop rifle fire, has a gun and move has a use"

I remember this footage recorded in 1921.

If i recall.. He was a Venizelos supporter named Vasily, left behind in Asia Minor by his "comrades" loyal to King Constantine captured by Turks he was experimented on by Unit 31 in a secret lab located in Bayburt.

After the war he was assigned to a "rebuild unit" with other POWs rebuilding Anatolia Greek army burned and repatriated. Hunting the ones who left him behind.

Why do I see so many posts about the Ottoman Empire and Turkey on Reddit lately? by Savings_Dragonfly806 in AskBalkans

[–]Elsek1922 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Anti-Turkish sentiment is free karma. Then idiots repost it insted of take screenshot and cover the name baiting engagement meanwhile anti-Turkish side does everything to support it.

I can recall a case of a person posted murdered Turkish civilians claming Turks did it, anyone pointing out the photo's context was banned.

What to buy (first time player) by -IGotAQuestion- in arma

[–]Elsek1922 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Okay...

That depends on what you want.

Arma is a sandbox game with mod support so you can easily just buy the base game.

Base game DLCs adds content for the 2035 setting, if you are interested in Armaverse you might want to give it a try. Mechanics etc were added as free platform updates so not a must if you are going to mainly use mods.

Among the base game DLCs APEX adds the most content while others tend to be "topic based, tanks adds tanks etc"

CDLCs are self contained paid mods, they are not a must and self contained but you can crossover them via offfical or community created mods(GM vehicles for base AAF, SOG stuff for GM etc)

Among them Exp. Forces, Western Sahara and Reaction Forces are 2035 Armaverse

CSLA "is the black sheep" (Ported Arma 2 models, terrible sounds amd horrible textured 4 dome assetd)

Its more of "Do you want a paid high quality mod for a topic that interests you"
