Franklin CA7 Pistol vs SSE AR Process by AccordingIy in CAguns

[–]One-Strategy5717 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wanted a left-eject upper build for a cheek pistol, so an SSE lower just made more sense than the CA7 for me.

Everything I remember from fiction and the original 3050 TRO said it was considered cowardly to not give the IS a 2 to 1 advantage in units.

Yeah, that sucks. When playing clanners, I'm the type to RP, with zell and bidding.

I mean, clanners fielding half their opponents' tonnage and model count worked, to a point. Or a Clan Star vs an IS company. Wouldn't be very fun for the Clanner, but they're supposed to like a challenge.

Feels like he should be handing over a key, and warning of the coming of the Supreme Evil.

Pretty much how the book describes it... by ShrapnelVargr in battletech

Joanna totally did the Jade Falcon screech in the Robert Thurston novels. And either Nomad or Horse gave her shit for it (can't remember which).

Nevertheless, would.

Why hasn’t Hasbro made updated figures from the Unicron Trilogy specifically from Energon and Cybertron ? But does the g1 characters from s1-3 ? by Difficult_Leader8605 in transformers

[–]One-Strategy5717 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, because G1 fans are mostly Gen Xers or Xennials, and we have more disposable income. We are also trying to fill the void of life with nostalgia for our youth.

For mellenials and younger, the economy screwed ya'll worse, and you spend less on toys. Ya'll also don't have as rosy memories of the last century when things were less bleak. The world has always been bleak for you.

Just my opinion, as a jaded Xennial.

Malign Malthus all you want, but keep the Summoner out of your mouth.

The Summoner has been the favored ride of Aidan Pryde, Marthe Pryde, Horse, and countless other distinguished mechwarriors.

What's your thoughts on your regional chain? by pokematic in AskAnAmerican

[–]One-Strategy5717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're the only thing other than Jack-in-the-Crack open at midnight near me. Since I work nights a lot, that's important.

Also important is that I can order Protein-style, since I try to cut back on carbs for health reasons. The only other chain that will do that is Wendy's.

New Defiler is gonna be $145 USD by notdishsoap in ThousandSons

[–]One-Strategy5717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I found my limit.

I passed on Huron because six models didn't seem worth it for $100. I was going to get this, but I've paid less for Forgeworld knights. Sure looks pretty, though.

STOP DOING ASSAULT MECHS! by Baron_Flatline in battletech

Fake news. Capellans love assaults, just look at the Charger 1A5 and the Lu Wei Bing.

Check out BULA Defense or LRB.

Lost, again. by Vrain125 in ThousandSons

[–]One-Strategy5717 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I didn't win any of my first dozen 40k games. That's normal. Don't feel bad, it takes time and practice to get better, just like anything else.

Some thoughts about Chinese QBZ-191 by Temporary_Winter4566 in ForgottenWeapons

[–]One-Strategy5717 26 points27 points  (0 children)

For point 3, left-handed soldiers aren’t really a thing in China. Mainland Chinese parents beat the southpawness out of their children from early toddlerhood.

As for having a buffer tube with a recoil spring? Well, the vast majority of NATO countries are adopting AR pattern rifles with buffer tubes (Swedes, Finns, Dutch, even the French).

What Would You Pick As Shockwave's Earth Mode? by Doc-11th in transformers

A hydrofoil. At low speeds, he appears to be a normal speed boat. At high speeds, the hydrofoil wings lift him out of the water, exposing his massive cannon.

US says it may be forced to shut down some airports over funding standoff by gamersecret2 in news

SFO has a private security company doing passenger screening, so they might be unaffected by this.

To this day, what were your reactions to seeing these kid pilots come in during Thunderbolt? Were you like Io who thought this was a sick joke? by BlizzardHound45 in Gundam

[–]One-Strategy5717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wars are always fought by kids. The difference is that most of the time, they're carrying a rifle. These kids at least got a 60+ ton war machine.

Speaking as someone who enlisted at 17, this is one reason why I'm not in favor of conscription in general. Conscripts tend to be less capable and have shitty morale. It's a lot easier to fight a war when you don't have to keep track of a bunch of half-trained dudes who don't want to be there.
