So B12 will not be concentrated in a single faction.
I suggest we share super-secret info here.
Just for the lulz.

A lot of the people who picked a faction are happy to play any faction.  So as long as we pick a main faction, most people should be on it.

IF you guys see a medium sized aircraft zooming just a few meters above the ground, it's probably me.

I do bombing runs like that.

[Girlinhat]

If you guys see a Liberator flying upside down, then you probably want to get your vehicles out of the sky.  I'll be doing retroactive bombing runs with the belly turret faced at the enemy aircraft.

[Matz05]

...retroactive bombing runs?

[Girlinhat]

You heard me.

[miauw62]

Sounds insane.

In other words, dwarven.


Woudnt bombs just fall back in?

[Matz05]

Retroactive implies that you hit them so hard they become leveled THROUGH TIME and suddenly have been ruins for years.

Did you mean "Inverted"?

No, now i'm certain that she means retroactive.

Maybe 'Retrograde'?

The poll is:
TR 20
VS 30
NC 40
Those are good numbers to end on.
Looks like we'll primarily be Bay12, New Conglomerate.

Definately sounds dwarfy to me, finding over-the-top solutions to simple problems..  I might have to give it a go

Hey guys, you need to firearms education real quick. The notorious "shotgun pistol" of real life is called The Judge, and it's a revolver, so there is no magazine involved. It also uses .410 shotgun shells, which are considerably smaller than twelve gauge shells.

As you can see in this comparison of different shotgun shell sizes, the .410 shell (leftmost) is the smallest popular shotgun shell, though it is very popular. Most commonly used is the 12 gauge (middle). The .410 shell uses a caliber measurement, meaning it is 0.41 inches in diameter. The "gauge" shells use an archaic measurement based on how many lead balls could be cast from one pound of lead for a gun with a barrel of that diameter- a ball made for a 12 gauge gun would be 1/12 of a pound, a ball for a 4 gauge gun would be 1/4 pound, the the higher the gauge, the less the diameter of the actual shell. (Sorry for image hugeness.)

Lastly, in terms of shotguns as sidearms, you might also be thinking of a super-short tactical shotgun like this, which is actually designed to be fired from the hip with loose arms (note that it has no sights of any kind).

I'm going to go ahead and say, without any knowledge and before I google it, that there are more shotgun pistols than just that one.

Edit: Yeah, aside from stuff like really short barreled sawn-offs (which are pistols I guess, since they don't have revolver chambering?) There's also The LeMat Revolver from the US civil war. And something called a Super Comanche which has a cool name.
