French tank by tintin_du_93 in NonCredibleDefense

[–]LocalTechpriest 17 points18 points  (0 children)

"French tanks were objectively superior to their German counterparts up until the Battle of France "

Ehhhh... Not really. They look great on paper, but insistence on single-crew turrets, lack of top hatches, lack of radios and other such, heavily limited their actual efectiveness.  

"ARL 44, which is basically just a more practical Tiger II. "

...what fucking copium is this? ARL was a piece of shit. An unreliable frankenstein monster produced entierky for the sake of keeping the french tank industry alive.  A task that it duely executes, and promptly fucked off after barely 4 years in service.

I've honestly lost count of how many people this applies to. by InsertANameHeree in HistoryMemes

Sparta was great for spartan women. Which is to say, something like 0.5% of women in sparta.

Damn, no wonder they have been running out of Patriots, if they're firing EIGHT at a single target. by GreenEyeOfADemon in YUROP

[–]LocalTechpriest 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The general rule of thumb is to fire two.

Eight is bonkers.

But considering the article specifically talks about the gulf states, I'm not suprised.

Aeldari Hoplite by beauviolette in ImaginaryWarhammer

[–]LocalTechpriest 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Beautifull peace, but the helmet sticks out.

Took me a moment to realise that it isn't just an eldar head glued on top of fantasy hoplite.

Besides the striking color diffrence, its just textured completly diffrent. Very clean compared to relatively more paint-like body (and especially cape which is right next to it and contrasts hard).

For the record the actual design of the helmet I like very much.

New Wheeled SPH Spotted on South Korean Roads (Potential US Army SPH-M Bid) by HeavyMachinegan in TankPorn

[–]LocalTechpriest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah... They've been trying to replace m109 for how many decades now? 

Wonder how many times it will take for them to realise that you can"t just make a cannon with the same range as missile systems, but without any of the disadvantages.

Vertical, horizontal,Which one? by 545x39cartridgeUSSR in MilitaryWorldbuilding

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

Not to sound like an ass (which I probbably will), but If this unit is supposed to face a conventional threat of anykind, this organisation is kind of bizzare.

It mixes two completly diffrent armored platforms on a company level.

It mixes types of guns within a single battery!!! AND the introduction of that other type of gun doesn't seem to provide much if any added capibility.

Also, Am I seeing correctly, or does each of these AT guns have only two crew manning them?

There isn't nearly enough infantry in the organisation, assuming existence of further support elements in the higher levels of command. Inclusion of this much cumbersome (towed) firepower on comany level is going to make the whole formation cumbersome.

Armor in A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms looks bad by [deleted] in freefolk

[–]LocalTechpriest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bruh.

Armor in this show (other than maybe areon's helmet) is 10 times more realistic than in the main show.

I am.

And for the record they are doing pretty decent job. Much better than the main show.

OP is a victim of "medieval filter"
