All fanfics are heresy, each and every one, especially the shipping ones. Those are by far the worst.

This will be ironic in hindsight (because we don't know things YET).

hm. what for? did you develope a new armor that can stand our shells? (the slat armor doesn't count: that protects from RPG and even with the proposed revision, that wouldn't have changed significantly)

by the way I forgot to say it when the whole discussion came up, because we were busy making arguments about the spies... but that is a clever idea to protect from our hand held anti tank weapons.
Clever both for you who adopted it and for those who thought of it in the first place.

Aw thanks. Mind you, I'm not giggling about the rocket shells though, though that is also hilarious :3

Given that all the designing and revisioning stuff is done now, I looked into your thread, and have come upon the joke of the century.
You designed a new version of the Rhino, but  (wait for it), failed to give it any armor piercing ammo.

Your armorpiercing APHE shells are noted as being too large, recoilless rifles have too low muzzle velocity for conventional AP, and you don't have HEAT.

Basically, you made a big firecracker,.

then... either you countered our design ( which would be strange, depending how accurate the countering is), or you are giggling at our banter and general squabbling, which is indeed a possibility.

It doesn't help that our weapon expert left to join you.

or you are speaking about our decisions to send stuff to the factions?

or a spy action!

argh! I want the next turn, so I can understand.


pre-edit: a new rhino without armor piercing? isn't that very outdated?
it seems we all went to the side of sillyness this turn :P

well, since I am not in the field of spying and all our actions are done, if you don't mind I'd like to read as well, even if the turn hasn't been posted. May I?

I have no clue why you guys are giggling at RAPs, they are used by every army in the world right now to boost artillery range. ??

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

Haha what.
Also, what the fuck is that APSH you guys mentioned before?

They're tiggers, they giggle even when they see something shiny.

It doesn't exist, AFAIK. Probably why it wasn't included in the finalized design.

well, yes. But no matter how effective,  the thought of boosting a 1912 artilelry piece by adding rockets to its projectiles is still silly and slightly hilarious.
of course, getting both longer range artillery AND a good laugh is a double victory.

Yeah, though WAITNOTHAT'SCLASSIFIED.
Anyway, I checked if their gun is actually that shitty.
The M18 Recoiless rifle designed in 1942 and noted for unusually high muzzle velocity for a recoilles rifle, had 365 m/s of it. Even smallest of AT guns have usually at least 900 m/s.
Oh God Emperor on His Golden Shithole, the Moskurgs actually did it. They made worst AT weapon ever.
EDIT:
By the way, APHE would be even less effective in a recoiless gun, since it still needs to break through armor and it's lighter than regular AP.
