We each write one bullet point for The Art of War 2.0
not a single post itt that isn't either a joke, dumb or already in the art of war.

Sun Tzu says>Putting dick on lips isn't gay if it's not consentual
it's 1944, it becomes clear to the Japanese high command that they're going to lose the war, in an attempt to prolong the war or even win (lol lmao even), they pull all their forces out of China in order to defend the mainland, would this actually prolong the war and how much of the japanese forces could make it across the sea of Japan back to the Islands without getting bombed by the U.S. Navy and AirForce?
>More IJA troops become fish food>The case for dropping both bombs becomes even more convincing than it already was
There was a comic about this called Storming Paradise. It's based on declassified documents from America and Japan.
I've made a grave and unrecoverable mistake, I called the pre 1947 Aerial warfare branch of the military the AirForce instead of the Army AirForce, forgive me brothers, for I have sinned.
balloon bombs will be next drone craze. screen cap me.balloons will be used to ferry glide drones most of the way to target, including large number of decoy balloons, then the balloons will release glide bombs switch will be guided to their targets via a single pulse of hi-energy radio on a particular wave length, triangulated, then the glider extrapolates dead reckoning from pre-programmed map, then maybe finish off with AI "FPV" camera/landmarks, etc.Defense will be problematic because balloons will be fairly high, like 30,000ft +, so only a real jet or SAM or major league AAA (that now only exists in museums) could touch them, and you still got LOTS of decoys that would need to be addressed. In addition, decoy balloons would release cheap decoy glide bombs, and the real bombs would be programmed to take round about path to target, so you'd be faced with all these "crazy like a fox" glide bombs that would all have to be considered legit threats.Figure the bombs will have about 100 miles glide range after release.These will be much cheaper, and even more long range, than even the Iranian lawn-mower engine prop jobs.The fact they might take a week to arrive, and could be 24hrs of more of "possible detach point/time" over possible targets, and about an hour of final flight time per release, will be as much a feature as a weakness.
>>65201976>balloons will be used to ferry glide drones most of the way to target>willUkies are already doing this, slowpoke.
Clearly the meta will evolve to interceptor balloons to deal with this new threat.
>>65202809interceptor balloons would be launched in path of incoming balloon bomb swarm. They climb above then eyeball the swarm and release H2 enough to start dropping good, and try to pick out the top bomb balloons and slice them, then target next lower BBs and so on.Interceptors would be reusable.
Are we leaving out that the first country to do this to the US is going to get their face eaten off during the retaliatory chimpout? Hard to launch these things when your staging ground is just one large crater.

>>65204004>anyone know if this place is good?Prices are way too high.>also where to buy antique riflesSnider Anon here. P&S Militaria has a decent selection at reasonable prices, as does Ellwood Epps (i still hate Wes Winkel). Switzer's Auctions is a good place for rare/unusual antique firearms, often at a bargain if you shop right, so mark their dates in your calendar and check their catalogue when it releases. You could easily get a working Snider for under 300$ at auction.Otherwise, try looking through the Used Firearm sections of small gunstore websites, you'll often find neat stuff like Martinis or Vetterlis hidden away.

>>65203733Why don't they just buy a winchester model 70 in thirty aught sex with a nice Loopold scope and shut the fuck up
>>65202941I have a $1,000 infantry rifle. Since it's an RPK I kind of want the half-assed fun switch, but they don't make one that has semi as a setting.
>>65203822I'd imagine most boogalloo shit would be mob violence, so you would be trying to go about your life in your vehicle and then end up somewhere where dumping a semi auto mag and getting the fuck out would be more of what happens than sitting innawoodline and popping melons.If you're talking about the latter, NVGs would be more useful than what you're sending rounds with.

What do you do with your CCW when you go to the gym or the sauna? Do you just leave it in the car or the locker for thieves to break into? or somehow keep it on your person at all times?
>>65203732Oh anon
>>65203732God gave you an asshole for a reason.
>>65203684I don't do anything like that. If I have to leave my gun behind for some reason (tax/post office, etc.) I just lock it in the glovebox and lock my car.

>>65203876It is literally insane that this warning even exists. The fact that this fucking guy really spent a decade embarrassing himself on /k/ and only just recently realized that he accomplished nothing and finally stopped coming here is wild. I should say that "here" just means /meg/, as he has instead run away to /CanGen/, where he is now brutally mocked and humiliated by being called an Indian by everyone who doesn't know his backstory.Genuinely looking forward to him never being brought up again in this general, just so he and all of his fruitless efforts fade from memory like dang ol' dust in the wind man.
>>65204085It exists because I'm sick of him. If I was aware of more of his activity outside of this board I would make a kf thread about him.He has some more behaviors that are endemic to this thread but I don't want to accidentally inform him about how easy he is to sniff out.
>>65204085>It is literally insane that this warning even exists.real autismos like that tend to congregate here in this place. Every forum has their resident weirdos. There's a /trv/ guy who has a hateboner for SEA for instance and does the same shit, dox himself. /pol/ and /mu/ have the "Pan Piano" simp poster- who for YEARS never stops bemoaning what happened to his beloved piano YouTuber. This place will drive you crazy- if that only thing you have in your life is internet access and anonymity. I wish post ID's were on every board and the algo auto-bans repeat samefags
Was the armor so shit that they made it as easy as possible for the crew to exit the vehicle before it exploded?
>>65199631the U.S. Army 1942-45 desperate scramble for tank destroyers (partly also handicapped by the U.S. Army's own TD doctrine) is parallel to the German army's use of captured chassis for artillery and anti-tank pieces; they did what they could with what they had available
>>65194788CAS is what they had, and the cab rank system was CAS right down to having a literal FAC and doing a talk onto the target as a control measure, but I'm curious about the etymology of the term and when it was actually first used.
Simply deploying AT guns using tow vehicles would leave them vulnerable to various attacks, and even withdrawing or evacuating would have taken a considerable amount of time.
In addition to the reasons already mentioned, there was a large concern that with fully enclosed roofs the soldiers would lose awareness of the battlefield and infantry could sneak up on them. And it wasn't just TDs. Halftracks, scout cars, and other types didn't have roofs. It went away quickly after WWII because artillery was the bigger threat than being flanked by infantry. The roof on the M36 Jackson was to defend against artillery. Also, the Czecks made a variant of the German halftrack with a solid roof.
>>65203921>the Czecks made a variant of the German halftrack with a solid roofGood old OT-810. For obvious reasons, it's quite popular with reenactors, and its hard to find images of original OT-810s that aren't larping as Sdkfz. 251s. Judging by the few images I can find, the roof was hinged, as seen here, so you could open it up for your guys. Probably pretty cramped with it closed.Also, funny that, judging only by this image, they re-introduced the more complicated clamshell doors, rather than the flat, acutely-angled design the Germans switched to partway through the war for simplicity's sake. Don't usually see regressions like that.
Maybe I'm retarded here but how the hell do eForm 1s work? Am I supposed to eventually get an approved/rejected email? Every YouTube tutorial was at least like 12mo outdated and the site had changed at least 2-3 times since IIRC.Previous(?): >>64955436

>>65203052>I agree, but to play devil's advocate, there is not way for them (ATF) to confirm.Of course there CAN be. Sure, in some cases it may just get shredded, but police/AGs are not required to shred them by law, and remember anon a lot of people may live in places where there are sticklers for rules or paper filing, or where they're more grabber and like to keep stuff just in case they can use it. You rarely know for certain. And even if it gets shredded doesn't mean there was no record made of it being delivered right? It'd be easy to have an excel sheet of "received copy of form 1 for John Doe on July 1" over and over. Or run it through a scanner before the shredder.Finally, don't forget that things change from time to time at the top too. Imagine some hyper proggie manages to get elected a decade down the line, and they direct their new people at the ATF to once again crack down on any violations they can no matter how small. Some states might fight being asked to turn over records but they'd probably lose, and other states would be happy to just comply. At that point comparing two databases is trivial.I mean, I'm no stickler for all the rules all the time at all, but somethings have such a low cost (1 postage stamp) vs even a tiny risk that dunno, doesn't feel worthwhile to fuck with. Maybe if I was 50 years older and could reasonably go "who fucking cares what happens in a decade" lol.
>>65203076Based even better. If it's just officially had the rules changed we don't even need to think about it anymore.
When should we know about the change to the engraving rules? It looks like the comment period is until July 6, 2026. I might just go ahead and get mine engraved so Ican go ahead and convert mine if its going to be next year or something

Let's not get bogged down by tech, and just assume a roughly late medieval tier metallurgy.How do you think would different fantasy physiologies affect the weapons they use (or others use against them)? Most settings seem to just give other races mostly normal human weaponry and armour while giving them some more unified visual theme, without really considering the efficacy of the equpment in their hands.Take dwarves for example. Short stature, bulky builds, high strength and endurance. Would poor reach and short arms make swung weapons ineffective? Would they need to rely exclusively on polearms if they were put against normal sized humans?What about giant races, say 3 metre tall humanoids, what would be the most effective way for them to fight against normal sized people?
>>65202540
>>65202584NTA but>where_do_u_think_we_are.avif
>>65193344There is no debate. One of them is probably mocking >>65176487 for making the ridiculous claim that fantasy races wouldn't move out of their biome, and the other one is probably making an unrelated joke about (I assume) Hyperborea being the birthplace of humanity in Conan, the Finno-Korean hyperwar, and a whole bunch of other settings.
>>65182453Elves are not the archery race, centaurs are. Elves are the please don't burn down my forest with me in it race. The only way elves are superior in any fantasy setting is if they're hidden among trees and numerous or with druidic magic. Faraway Paladin elves can just fuck anything up in a forest. Lock your feet to the dirt and have spiny brambles cover your whole body so you can bleed out all slowly.
>>65202540>just makes up a bunch of figures off the top of his head >Wall of therefore useless mathYou really have no idea what you're>metricah of course.
wtf were they smoking when they decided on this price?
>>65196157Try apex, or centerfire, or numrich then, you useless faggot
>>65199965Unless something has changed they have the wrong gas system too. It should have the early style short gas plug and Type A regulator similar to Israeli rifles. The one they had at SHOT had a later style long gas plug and Type C regulator. Maybe it's nitpicking, but when you're paying almost $4000 for a reproduction these are the kinds of little details the manufacturer should get right.
>>65203389NTA; not being an original I have to worry about when shooting a gun was what made me excited about H&R's M16/M4/AR and other repro lines while being a reasonable price. The detail fuckups, I figured, I could fix if they bothered me. Now that they're doing>actual collector's priced guns>omg muh limited edition that will be immediately scalped once the tiny batch sells out in 30 seconds>still fucking up detailsand>ID verify trust us with your data broI no longer give a shit about what they're doing. We're now left with one left autist making random shit (NoDakSpud) and another big ass company making overpriced "collectible" limited edition shit that doesn't even get the details right.
>>65203450It's not like these were some one off prototype rifles either. The Marines have racks full of them at Quantico and all those little quirks have been exhaustively documented and cataloged over the years. There's no excuse to get 98% of the way there and just say fuck it, close enough other than laziness.Anyway here's some guy riding an aerocycle with one of the FN heavy barrel T48s.
>>65204112Wrong image, but it's some of the many H&R rifles in the vault there.
Summer is upon us, anons. Will you sit at your computer in a dark room and moan online about trivial instances of ignorance and foolishness displayed by “tourists” on a singaporean betamax collecting forum, or will you go out and explore our world’s hidden treasures and horrors in a heavily armed fashion and return to share your adventures with your comrades? /k/ of late has far too much whining and far too little STALKING, so let’s turn that around. I’ll start by sharing my stalk of the B-24 Dragon bomber crash zone at Loon Lake, Idaho the last couple days. I don’t have STALKER challenge rules in a suitable resolution, so if you do, please post.>picrel: near the highest elevation portion of the trail, ~6,000 ft. No mutants spotted in old wildfire burn scar area.
>>65199905Fell kinda blessed I've not yet had a negative reaction while carrying a full sized infantry rifle while backpacking.
>>65200169Call of the Zone for me, a spinoff by the late DoctorX with his mods baked in. Made sense for me, since I'd download them all anyway when playing CoC. Never got into Anomaly when that was the thing, too much Miseryshit for my taste. I know lots of stalkers enjoy the hardcore survivalism, but for me, I prefer Stalker as an atmospheric openworld shooter, so I only care about mods that give me excuses to get into shootouts, and mods that expand the arsenal so I can play with whatever toy I feel like on a particular day or playthrough. I've heard of Gamma but never tried it myself, seemed like it was just more of the same as Anomaly.
>>65202319Maybe you're getting helped by normies and their lack of understanding of guns? Wood = not scary, fixed mag = not scary, iron sights = not scary. Plastic = scary, detachable mag = scary (especially if protruding noticeably from magwell), optics = scary (especially if recognizable from cowadooty).
10/10 OP
>>65199838>I've got enough other projects atmTotally understandable. Friend's got a UTV and wants to do some "stealth mods" to it as well (second muffler, blackout switch for lights etc.), I'm helping him with camo stuff but so far I only got to making a snow camo cover for it.*You can always start with the smallest things once time permits like putting old socks over mirrors and indicators and tying a sandbag over the license plate and tail light...*BTW non-woven gardening fabric (that kind used for protecting plants from frost) works surprisingly well for snow camo - weighs and costs almost nothing and packs small...
There's also a KPYK Moist Nugget wielded by a Frenchman (of course)
>>65201777Does anyone other than me still even play CoD? Honestly, the armory function is one of the most /k/ things of the game. You make a STG44 with cut stock, M203, and muzzle-check attachment and I'm just a happy man.Warzone is pretty fun to get your arcade game on with wild loadouts.
>>65203879>You make a STG44 with cut stockWere you here in 2017? Because I recall /k/ mocked the shit out of COD:WWII for being the first one where you could cut the STG-44's stock, except it would be cut PAST the receiver so the gun wouldn't realistically function.
>>65204059That was Vanguard where you played in campaign against a Nazi Ryan Reynolds, it was a total clusterfuck where I can't begin to explain the attachments other than having to throw spaghetti at a board in order to give everyone eight options instead of five.I can't say I know enough about the MP44 if its receiver went back into a rattail in the stock like a shotgun (or ares SCR), but this looks plausible if it was updated.
>>65201777What is this narco-slut doing in France?
>>65203879>Does anyone other than me still even play CoD?Takes too much room within my SSD. Not worth it given that other FPS games look much better while occupying far less space. Last one I played was Black Ops 7, a disappointment.
