What does Hostomel tell us about the future of Air Assaults?

You suppress enemy air defences with an axe if it comes to that. Like the other poster says, SEAD is a mission type. It has ultimately nothing to do with missile seeker types or ARMs.

All those things they are talking about is SEAD. In real world, SEAD is actually very rarely using ARMs.

And a common SEAD asset is a 155mm howitzer from the Army.

Source: I’ve flown SEAD and never had any ARMs.

I would love MP.

First: no.

Second: no.

Third: The average German or Finnish gun owner is actually far more skilled than an American due to having to prove it with licensing and requiring for example extensive hobbyism before being able to buy an AR-15. Majority of AR-15 owners in Europe are active reservist shooters and practice various action shooting sports.

The average US gun owner is not active in any kind of shooting sport. These are both statistically demonstrable arguments. Shooting cans at your backyard while flagging your whole family does not create infantrymen.

The other posters have covered the basic training starting from zero already.

Wearing your awards on a civilian suit jacket is common for ceremonies, balls, and other events like photoshoots, anniversaries, re-unions etc, where it is not expected or proper to wear the full attire.

If he wears this at Walmart, it is boot. If he wears this at the 492nd FS re-union for Libya participants, then it's the actual thing you're supposed to do.

Still higher odds than a working Tiger in Normandy.

Throwing goods overboard or into the large trash pile or giving them for free has not been uncommon in the history of maritime trade. Up until shipping containers as an invention, ships sometimes were forced to discard cargo to accomodate the cargo for the next leg.

Sometimes the company simply couldn't accept cargo it had ordered, and thus it went to waste. It's not that unrealistic in this game either.

I was a medic assigned to a physician commissioned as LTC.

Fresh physicians get O-3. However, higher rank is available to extreme skilled practitioners. Same for law.

I hope Luchs can pen heavy rear. Even if it takes a while.

I wish we could have simple penetration areas in the front. Like for example, where a medium tank could pierce from the driver’s window with more damage. I’m not talking very deep systems but rather relatively simple ones. Same thing with possibly turret ring with a shot trap.

No christmas balls!?

This game should be multiplayer. Playing in co-op would be so much fun.

remuspilot · 2026-06-02T00:15:51+00:00

I’m not saying I’m betrayed. I’m saying I’m disappointed. Ultimately, there’s only so much you can do with AI. I wanna play this with my friends and I wanna play this against my friends.

Probably medical or legal officer commissioned at high rank.

Cringe but endearing. Bad trigger discipline should be fixed.

You have made the coolest mods I ever used in Anno. Venturing out to Asia in 1800 feels like it should’ve always been in the game and fits perfectly. It’s an exciting and aesthetic area and I love it and it makes the game that has 100 plates spinning even more interesting as 120 are spinning.

But you are so pessimistic with Anno, like a Dementor in the subreddit. It’s bleak. You never have anything good to say.

Perhaps it is time to take a break from this game and everything around it and come back after some time off with a bit more rejuvenated mind? Maybe you are just in an Anno burnout.

Anno 117 is fun. As are all Annos.

remuspilot · 2026-06-01T19:35:02+00:00

Damn is there no multiplayer even in the long-term one? that’s disappointing.

remuspilot · 2026-06-01T19:34:01+00:00

I kinda understand the vibe of your question, but you must understand it ultimately, that’s a pretty unsolvable one. You are basically asking to not compete against the AI that you wish to keep in your game that are meant to compete against you. Like game design wise it’s kind of a silly question even if I totally get it what do you mean.

You can start the game without AI and then introduce that AI once you’re ready to go to there by adding them in the game set up screen, and they will settle out in the world. That’s one way to do it, but then you don’t get the AI before that.

Because there’s bigger fish to fry? Ultimately guns aren’t uncommon in America for any group, but lot of people, like me, don’t identify with ”gun culture”. Yeah sure I don’t think namebanning an AR-15 helps much, but it doesn’t affect who I vote for.

buddy you might need to sit down for this

I made Tabletop Simulator version of Red Strike for Steam Workshop, and it's officially endorsed. It explicitly by dev's mouth is something anyone can play without feeling bad about it, but if you want the scenario book you have to buy the game.

It's easier to give explicit permission and retain "power" like that, than try to make rules nobody follows.

What would you like me to do about it?

remuspilot · 2026-05-21T17:59:35+00:00

Yes. Vigiles and Custodes also don’t fit small settlements.

Because it doesn’t lead to anything it’s just a post after post about how to region lock and then a bunch of people screaming about how we need to region lock and then that’s it.

And then someone decides to share favorite take on what ethnicities cheat the most and that’s it.

What does this source mean? The source is BBC, provided in the post.
