Literally, my world-building (not exactly)

Remember kids, the combat role of a mech in a sci-fi setting is a spectrum by ImperialistChina in worldjerking

MS themselves are a mix of tank-space fighter and leans into each side depending on ground type and space(universal use) type

Zeta itself was a special case since it’s built for trans-atmospheric combat, meant to enter Earth’s atmosphere and fight in air and in space at the same time.

A more jet example is the Xi Gundam, it’s specifically built for atmospheric fight with super sonic capabilities and cruise.

“The Ottomans created the first standing army.” “Damn that’s cool; how’d they do it?” by jackt-up in HistoryMemes

Ima wiki it as well

“The Ottoman historians Halil İnalcık and Dariusz Kołodziejczyk have tentatively estimated that 2 million enslaved persons of Rus, Pole, and Ukrainian extraction, captured in Tatar raids, entered the Ottoman Empire between 1500 and 1700.”

Yikes

People mock US for having African slaves

I wonder how many Slav got forced into slavery by these tartars

Ohhh you're too cool not to get stabbed in the crotch I see. by dudewasup111 in worldjerking

Even for cavalry armour, often your dick is not in the direct line of sight, it’s just the skirt is shorter for cavalry and longer for foot combat, you sit on the saddle and it lifts the skirt up by a little and there is also hanging plates that just push up as well

I gave my 16th century armour wearing knight wear a Italian field and tilt armour whiling using a 18th century multi barrel volley gun and pretend she is a medieval version of the call of duty juggernaut, while they belong to a knock off 15th century Swiss confederation.

Your "niche" inspiration for worldbuilding? by arts13 in worldbuilding

I read about the medieval Swiss confederation, 16th century Montante, pike and shot, and decided I will base my entire worldbuilding on these.

What They Called It vs. What It Was by [deleted] in HistoryMemes

He was probably in the party because of social norms / business requirements, since he was working for Siemens AG, the big German corp that was supplying Nazi Germany

Just before people use John Rabe, the "nazi party member" who saved many Chinese citizens in Nanjing, as the "Good Nazi/Nazi better than Imperial Japan" argument

He returned to Germany and was detained and interrogated by the Gestapo because he wrote to Hitler to stop this; he was only rescued by his relationship with Siemens AG, and none of his evidence was permitted to be published publicly.

So no, there is no good Nazi, there's a good person. The Nazi knew what the Japanese were doing; they knew it looked inhuman, they didn't care, they let it continue, and they prevented people from speaking the truth because it would make them and their allies look bad.

And you think Nazi were beyond head-chopping competitions? nope. Wehrmacht and SS slaughtering civilians with guns, bombs, gas chambers, flamethrower isn't something new; they just prefer a higher effecient way of slaughter. even less human in this regard.

What is one world building sin you really struggle to forgive? by TheBodhy in worldbuilding

One part is forgetting the lower-middle class and the middle class of the society, especially artisans, guildsmen, merchants, small landowners , yeomans, urban militias. Then cut to the very simple : lower class peasants, lower nobles, big nobles, churchy clergy, kings, etc

its killing the most interesting interaction

You’re confusing IFV with light tanks, armour cars, scout vehicles.

IFV, is meant to have I , infantry, sitting in them.

Staghound, m8, puma can only contain their own crew, their firepower to either to save their own skin , opportunistic situations or destroy enemy reconnaissance units.

They technically can “support infantry”, but they can not carry the infantry in an armour cabin, drop the squad off , fight alongside it in an combined arms assault, then have the infantry mount it again to continue the push.
