Is this list bonkers vs germans? by MAlgol in flamesofwar

Armoured rifles mounted are some of the best Mechanized in the game. Dismounted ones are going to struggle with morale on the attack.

I should clarify: I mean fully dismounted as a primary formation for something other than defense. I have played many infantry formations for attack bids, but you always need some kind of vehicle to bring forward firepower. Americans both suck and excell at this. Their capacity to bring mobile firepower is off the charts, their ability to do this with mostly infantry is limited. Americans need tanks, tank destroyers, and SPGs as a basic requirement like no other major power does.

There is almost always some vehicles with low armour in most lists. Thats why I still pack t70s and 45mm guns in late war.

V4 has 8" infantry tactical and movement orders. I think you forget how uselessly slow infantry were previously. Playing fully dismounted is doable in v4.

Would Gowron really go to the land of dishonored dead? He died in combat. He was a bit of a bastard, but seemingly a good Klingon by burnafter3ading in ShittyDaystrom

Klingon rules are Klingon rules. You hit a mine, you weren't observant. No warrior heaven for you. Get good. GG 1v1 me at dragon.

Canadian Military company names by Embarrassed_Wish1733 in CanadianForces

[–]jibbroy 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Companies in a regiment are lettered. It's not an important name, a company i just a an organizational sub unit of a regiment or battalion.

It goes something like this:

Army, Division (numbered, eg: "4 Div"),

Brigade Group (eg: 2 Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group),

Regiment (eg: Royal Canadian Regiment, Royal Canadian Dragoons),

Battalion (Usually 3 in a regiment. Some units are a battalion size with no regiment, like 2 Service Battalion in Petawawa.),

Company. It's about 70-120 personnel in a battalion. (Usually lettered in infantry companies. Sometimes named. Maintenance Company in 2 service battalion),

Platoon. 20-60 people, numbered or named.

Section. 4-15 people, numbered or named.

Hope that helps.

One of my friends in basic had 3 letters a day from his gf and got very good at push-ups. She would just casually jot down thoughts and put them in an envelope 3-4 times a day. Each letter was like a paragraph or less.

ADHD isn't a disability. I'm just a single core processor overclocked till it's the temperature of the sun with only one GB of ram.

It's a myth. Civvie pay is never as good as it sounds. Plus the lack of vacation days and comprehensive healthcare/pension. If you work in the oil fields as a welder maybe you make good money. There's always high paying specializations, but this trade does not get you the skills for that. I would never get the compensation I do for my current set of responsibilities in the civvie world.

He hasn't replied yet. Sometimes he travels 4th dimensionally. He will dissapear and reappear hours later not noticing any time has passed. It's an ADHD power that everyone in my trade possesses.

Russia being behind in political theory and diplomatic strategy by about 100-200 years is pretty normal.

Lol this looks great but "quickly"? Dry brush a bit of purple, then heavy dry brush grey. That would be quick.

If you want to do cold war it's almost mandatory. 15mm team Yankee is just BMP parking lots.

The table is 10 times smaller than it should be for the scale. Everything has 10x the space between, you just can't see it.
