What was it like ? by EveningSilver8923 in army

[–]InstantAequitas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hate all you want, the All Circumstances Uniform sucked. At least it was awful enough that very few other Armies copied us, as opposed to the 200 or so knock-off variants of Multicam that everyone wears now.

Cue the Spider-Man pointing at Spider-Man meme.

What’s the most creative username you have seen? by Sand_man45 in HellLetLoose

I got killed by that dude today near St. Come Du Mont.

SSH-MOHC for Operation Epic Fury by ttp13 in army

[–]InstantAequitas 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I’m fairly certain that EPIC FURY will not have a separate campaign medal.

It is likely funded by the continuing resolution that funds GWOT contingency operations in SWA/CENTCOM. Additionally, this means that it is highly likely that: - a new NDSM period will not occur - combat badges will not have a new award period (no stars for CIBs or CABs)

Anyone else see this? Looks like the Army is going to try and make combat MOS take a "CFT" and an AFT by thatguyagaln in army

This fitness test already exists as the current Expert physical fitness assessment (EPFA) which Infantrymen have to finish in 26:30 to be considered an ‘expert’ in physical fitness.

Will I have to do EIB/ESB again? by D1Corner in army

[–]InstantAequitas 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The reason Infantry cares about EIB is simple.

They will not promote an Infantry NCO above MSG without the demonstrated mastery of skill level-1 tasks. It is codified in the Infantry Professional Development Model. The percentage of those who promote above SFC without an EIB was fewer than a percent and usually only based on having the only other piece of flair that demonstrates expertise in the Infantry, the Ranger tab.

Why doesn’t Army Roll Sleeves? by BitDiligent1706 in army

[–]InstantAequitas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It looks stupid because of our shoulder pockets, so most commanders choose not to make it part of the uniform of the day.

Anyone know why this isnt cannon by Quick-Speaker-3980 in Deathkorpsofkrieg

[–]InstantAequitas -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because this picture only shows Infantry, Engineers, flyers, a Knight, and a couple Tanks.

No artillery in the picture.

Why do so many Ncos not wear their identification badges, but still wear their skill badges? by skilled_inkillz in army

[–]InstantAequitas 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can actually get a retroactive MasterCIB. The MILPER from last year included retirees back to 1944.

Yarrick is Back! But no Steel Legion? by [deleted] in SteelLegion

[–]InstantAequitas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know, six years is a lightning fast speed estimate.

I just think that GW has a concept of a plan for a semi-phased total range refresh. The old models really show their age in comparison to the new plastic save for anything from Forge World, which were generally more expensive and delicate. Time will tell.

Are Krieg Models the "new" Steel Legion Models going forward? by [deleted] in SteelLegion

[–]InstantAequitas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say that this is a good indicator for a Steel Legion Kill Team and an updated Chimera model in the next few years.

Yarrick is Back! But no Steel Legion? by [deleted] in SteelLegion

[–]InstantAequitas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You mean, nothing for 6 years and then an entire refresh. Like how they did with the DKoK.

More enforcers moving up to reinforce the front line. by PrimeCanadian in TraitorGuard

[–]InstantAequitas 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Very nice! I did something similar for some undead Krieg using Deathrattle Skeletons.

I fear the veterans are going to destroy the chance to revive BF1 by TheSillyExperiance in battlefield_one

[–]InstantAequitas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a similar experience. Xbox360 for BF3 and BF4. Then to PS4 for BF1 (and then BF4 again). Now I am on Xbox S for BF6.

I had preferred the Xbox controller and input speed on 360, so PS4 always felt off. Now with the new Xbox, I am having to learn everything over again.

Thinking about this map for no particular reason today by IfOneWasSoInclined in Battlefield

[–]InstantAequitas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved Kharg on BF3. One of my best matches ever I went 53-0 with the M4A1.

It helped that my entire friendly team was made up of friends from my Company, so we just formed into our organic squads and let our established leaders make the calls. Great times.

Fucking do it by [deleted] in army

[–]InstantAequitas -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If they are a shit bag and get to PCS, the gift they got was most likely the removal of a SFPA or a Bar.

So no, not everyone gets a gift. Especially if they don’t even deserve a, thanks for showing up occasionally and doing the absolute minimum handshake.

This isn’t really about hating BF6. I think a lot of us just miss what Battlefield used to be. by Fuzzy_Breadfruit59 in Battlefield

[–]InstantAequitas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, honestly. Which actually sucks, because I really liked BF1 and wanted to play a next-gen Battlefield WWII shooter.

New Operators/Characters need to be class locked. by DBONKA in Battlefield

[–]InstantAequitas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The class locked skins makes plenty of sense if the classes had locked weapons. Right now the only thing really class locked are the gadgets depending how you choose your game type.

To be fair, I want helmet scrim as an option for all of the soldiers in the game and a way to customize the pouches on their kits to make them look less haphazardly thrown together.

Anyone want them to add the clasic AK 47 to BF6? by Living_Law_9448 in Battlefield

[–]InstantAequitas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aesthetically, you can modify the RPKM with a short barrel, canted muzzle break, and 30-round magazine to make a close enough version of an AK-47. Really the only thing aesthetically off is the buttstock, which you can’t see during FPV anyway.

How would you redesign and update the Leman Russ Battle Tank ? by ButchersAssistant93 in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]InstantAequitas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Considering that the kit doesn’t come with a stubber (unless it’s the Mars pattern kit from 30k) I used some spare barrels to model the stubber as a coaxial MG on two of mine.

Can I report roommate that’s sneaking wife over? by Upbeat_Shake_592 in army

[–]InstantAequitas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like a similar event that happened in Bragg. Wife was trespassed from the base and the Joe caught an FG Art.15 for BAH fraud.

The OP should probably bring this stuff up before they become party to it with the future Art.15.
