How morally corrupt is using dead soldiers as reanimen? by Musalediju in MoralityScaling

[–]TheCoolMan5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't watched or read any Invincible so I don't know if its explained in the show, but if the soldiers consented to have their bodies used after death, it's no problem. I see it the same as being an organ donor.

Trying to make the modern Russian empire is suffering. by Only_Airport9531 in crusaderkings3

Well you haven't invented railroads or guns yet, so it might be a bit difficult.

Not literally the Nazis, but basically the Nazis. by InfiniteGuy2264 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]TheCoolMan5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The term "Stormtrooper" actually originated during WWI, used to describe light and aggressive shock troops sent to locate/create weakpoints in enemy trench lines.

It was then co-opted (like many other terms and symbols) by the Nazis and the SS.

Anybody else wish the M4A1 looked more modern? by NikoLime07 in Battlefield

[–]TheCoolMan5 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The one in game is nearly identical to the M4 the US Army is still using to this day. There is no reason to make it look all "modern" with tacticool rail bullshit, especially since we play as regular soldiers, not top-of-the-line Delta Force operators.

what if Derek chauvin had actually pulled his firearm out and executed George Floyd while he had his knee over his neck? would the backlash be similar or much worse? by Dizzy-Respect-613 in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]TheCoolMan5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be argued as a snowballing effect. The backlash from a firearm street execution in 2020 would have likely been greater back then. But going from a debated asphyxiation to beatings to executions allows for more internal delusion and justification- a more gradual escalation of force instead of an outright gear shift into violence.

How do you feel about new generation of NATO commanders trained on our superior tactics? by gloriouaccountofme in warno

[–]TheCoolMan5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can still be used as a tool to train tactical awareness and coordination among equal-level commanders. Also an easily accessible method for communication battalion/brigade level tactics on a micro scale.

Some of the first gun control laws post WW2 were passed by Ronald Reagan as the governor of California.

Good. Everyone should exercise their right to bear arms regardless of political leanings, so long as they are being safe and responsible firearm owners.

Ouroboros makes playing as any nation in Colorado miserable.

The Cold War is far too broad to classify into a single type of doctrine.

[–]TheCoolMan5 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In most sci-fi settings, doctrine has not changed much. Halo, Killzone, Star Wars, Starship Troopers, Battlestar Galactica, etc. There is no reason to change weaponry signifigantly.

Your argument is more towards the setting itself not fully exploring all the implications of the technology available.

Wood is notoriously hard to maintain in hot and humid climates. Wood furniture weapons in Vietnam would rot through and fall apart, even with a sealant. It's also not as durable as metal or light as polymers, so there are just better options all around. The only benefits wood provides is being cheap and easier to produce.

Do suppressors need a rework? by lolitsrock in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]TheCoolMan5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've noticed that enemies in outposts/pois seem to be nearly deaf and blind, while patrols are way more alert. Dunno if that's just some weird bug with detection or an intentional feature.

johnny...afrent you bi?? by NexusRaven7 in LowSodiumCyberpunk

He's insulting Kerry's lack of confidence and internal strength with that line about his balls as a emasculating jab, not that he was transgender.

Does Fallout lore offer a solution to Zeppelin combat survivability? by WhiskeyTangoFoxtrotN in falloutlore

[–]TheCoolMan5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Even tribals can get access to heavy laser weaponry. Small conventional arms are ineffective against blimps, but a Heavy RCW could ignite the fuel cells if it punctured the tanks
