You travel back in time to the year 1000 AD.You get to choose any existing country or region in the world.You manage to bring 10 kinetic ICBMs with the capability to launch themselves with you. Your goal is whatever you want to achieve.Where are you going, where are you launching the missles (if at all), and what goal are you trying to achieve?

This is retarded for several reasons.1. ICBMs require a lot of maintenance and upkeep, and that's assuming they come with magic silos to launch them with. I'd have to launch all the ICBMs fairly quickly before they deteriorate (all my myself, somehow) and that may run counter to whatever goal I want to achieve.2. ICBMs would be a lot less strategically effective in medieval times where there fewer major population centers, and the major population centers that do exist are a tiny fraction of the size of post-industrial ones. Medieval societies also don't rely on as much critical infrastructure or manufacturing, so you can't effectively cripple an entire nation by just bombing a few places. Not that there are exceptions to this, some medieval polities were centralized around a major city, but for most simply blowing up major cities wouldn't be as crippling as one might first think - it wouldn't change shit for the peasantry or minor nobles in the vast swathes of rural and decentralized lands.3. Medieval dialects are so different from modern ones that no one would from today be able to understand anything unless they took a medieval linguistics or literature class. I'd just be time traveling to a time without modern amenities and no way to understand anyone, pretty much forced to survive on my own in a society that would probably hate me for being a weirdo heretic/heathen or whatever because I don't know all their medieval beliefs.4. Anytime traveling back to that time would probably die from some turbo AIDS smallpox black death syphilis shit because they have no immunity to all those diseases that have been wiped out in modern times.
>>18126733>1Its a fun hypothetical just assume they are functional and can be launched dont sperg too hard abt it.>2Yes I am aware, that's why you are given 10. You could use 1 on an advancing superior army, or use all 10 to completely wipe out some shitty city if you want.>3Again it's just a fun hypothetical lmao also assume you're fluent in whatever language is spoken in whichever area you choose.>4Omfg nigga who cares
>>18126682Send me to EnglandNukes go to Baghdad, Cairo, Damascus, Seville, Caen and five of them straight to Turkmenistan wherever it is densest.
>>18126759They are kenetic not nuclear so there is no resulting fallout but I get your point
>>18126682I launch all nukes at Volga Bulgaria and Astrakhan.
>>18126759The Middle East was majority Christian, of course.
>>18126682I would bomb every non-muslun country and tell them that Allah did it. Then I'd tell them that Allah wants them to chop their dicks off and become trannies just for lulz and rendering the point moot.
