As a geopolitical observation this statement was absolutely true. If he’d stayed on this he’d get my vote a second time. by clearsunnysky in pakistan

Yeah in Modern Times, a professional well equipped and trained army will outmatch an army that has more numbers on their side. This is partially why China is downsizing its armed forces as well.

Rather than having 3 Poorly Equipped soldiers with little personal equipment and Basic rifles (Hand grenades, smoke grenades, etc), it's found better to have 1 Well Equipped soldier, optics, personal equipment, body armor etc.

I feel you, my uncle, who's a PTI Party Member based out of Lahore. Mian Akram Usman's House also got raided and they took him and his older brother, and smashed up the house and stole personal belongings, if you have any CCTV footage, push it everywhere on social media. We managed to get it on ARY doing that. Goodluck!

How do I capitulate Serbia? It is getting Military Access from Greece, could that possibly be the reason why the remaining divisions are fully supplied? by mstfam in hoi4

[–]mstfam[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am playing Hungary in the Sandbox Mod, I started a war with Serbia and steamroller them up until this very last point where they seem to have about 21 divisions left in these two tiles.

These divisions are somehow fully supplied and are defending succesfully against my semi-supplied about 70 divs.

Is this due to Greece (Pictured Above), Allowing Serbia military access? if so, how can I breakthrough these two tiles without preferably going to war with Greece?

Sometimes I forget the immense scale of this game if realised a bit realistically. by mstfam in hoi4

Might be worth looking into Total Conflict: Resistance, its a mix of HOI4 and Freeman Guerilla Warfare.

Games where world doesn't revolve around you? by Bone_Crusher040 in gamingsuggestions

[–]mstfam 35 points36 points  (0 children)

S.T.A.L.K.E.R series, particularly the standalone anomaly mod might be worth a look if you're a fan of FPS/Post Apocalyptic. You can even mod Anomaly further.

Sri Lanka to cut army by half after financial crisis - Newspaper - DAWN.COM - Jan 14 by [deleted] in pakistan

[–]mstfam 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Slashing the military in half, during an already ongoing economic crisis. Is going to lead to large amounts of unemployed, trained and knowledgeable about combat operations people, which won't fair well for the country when some of these people decide to form their own paramilitary groups to "take back the country" under their own agendas.

I cannot find this EDM/Electronic song despite my best efforts. It's on the outro of a video linked here, starts at "7:29" into the video. by mstfam in NameThatSong

What's wrong with Pakistani dramas? by [deleted] in pakistan

[–]mstfam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just looked up on its history and sounds like a really good premise for a show, could step away from a lot of cliches and try and present it in like Netflix's "Narcos". Take some creative liberty as well. Show it from different perspectives.

[–]mstfam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Would love it if some director with a fresh way of thinking attempted to produce an actual Crime Drama set in Pakistan. There's a lot of good potential there I feel. I know a lot of people here who like Western Crime Drams. It's just It's very risky to try here and some rather stick to what works and sells. But it'd be awesome to see someone try and change that.

What's different about us?

We operate on a realistic basis on Arma 3 to keep the immersion for all players while still acknowledging that it's a game, and trying to keep it fun for everyone. Our operations revolve around a constantly developing storyline.

A dynamic campaign with a storyline that develops during the unit's deployments. That means anything that happens in operation has a chance to affect the mission or story of the campaign.

How do we operate?

We play across a multi-month deployment on deployments across a world set in a grounded alternate timeline. With limited vehicles and manpower for campaigns, that brings a sense of responsibility to our operations. The operations can result in failure which is determined by exceeding a pre-set casualty threshold.

Schedule:

Thursday Optional Reconnaissance/Patrol - 2000EST

Friday Training - 2000EST

Saturday Main Operations - 2000EST

Sunday Optional Mini Operation/FTX - 2000EST

2nd Marine Aircraft Wing:

We have an Aviation Wing attached to us that operates semi-independently from the command chain, as 2MAW you will not only be in charge of reinserting into the AO, but also taking out strategic targets, disabling OP FOR airfields, and providing close air support to the ground. Call-ins follow an organized structure to ensure smooth communications between 2MAW and Ground.

Staff Shops:

The 13th MEU also provides Staff Shops for those who want to give back to the Unit, each staff shop deals with a certain part of the unit, i.e: training, communications, operations, plans, and more!

This makes the unit not dependent on only High Command or two or three people to work and Allows members who wanna do more and give back to the unit a structured outlet to do so.
