>Dwarves use tanks because they're short and sturdy, like them>Harpies use planes because they already know how to fly>Mermaids use submarines because underwater survival is their expertise>Humans use mechs because we've mastered the humanoid formBut who would use surface ships?
>>93194663Witches, cause they float on water.
>>93194663why would you build a machine to do what you can already do? Shouldn't it be Harpies using tanks, dwarves using submarines, mermaids using mechs and humans using planes?
>>93194867Same reason you use a car
>>93194900we built boats first
>>93194867A better take would be that Harpies fly around on airships, since they would effectively be mobile skybound homes that the harpies can fight, hunt and trade from.Mermaids use tanks because they can't survive for long periods outside water and need to take their environments with them to the battlefield.Humans use submarines because submarines are amazing naval assets if you don't need to support operations ashore, and it lets humans interact (peacefully or otherwise) with mermaids on their own turf.Elves use ships because elves are loser traditionalists.Dwarves use mechs because mecha let dwarves live out their dreams of not being tiny manlets, and the impractical nightmare of designing functional combat mechs appeals to Dwarven inner autismo.Goblins use planes because gnomes like rickety deathtraps and speeeeeeeed.
>>93194932Dragonborne get helicopters so they can do fly-by breath attacks
Lizardfolk you fat fucking retard
>>93194900Cars carry more weight and go faster. Maybe submarines can go lower but I don't know if mermaids would need them
>>93194932Amazing, it took you probably 10 seconds of thinking to come up with something a million times better than OP's retarded ass logic
GOMU GOMU NOOOOOOOOOOO!
>>93194932>Elves use ships because elves are loser traditionalists.Elves use canoes because ships are a damn gimmick. Nobody needs a boat THAT big.
>>93197421>The most fearsome sight in a war against dwarves is a wall of heavy mechs marching towards you>The most fearsome sight in a war against humans is a sudden swarm of submarines surrounding you>The most fearsome sight in a war against elves is an archmage angrily paddling a canoe
>>93194663Trains
>>93194663What?>>Dwarves use tanks because they're short and sturdy, like themMakes more sense than most of the others, but dwarves wouldn’t be primarily known for tanks unless they sold them en masse, as they’d be terrible in an underground environment >>Harpies use planes because they already know how to flySame principle, different mechanics. As >>93194932 points out, creating an aerial base would be far better for harpies>>Mermaids use submarines because underwater survival is their expertiseNow THIS is retarded. Submarines have so much faults (limited visibility, large size, requires multiple people to steer and studious record keeping to keep track of its position and location, if it stumbles into another force it’s dead, etc.) that merfolk simply don’t have to deal with. It would be infinitely better if they just set up a Navy SEALs team that exploits their greater manoeuvrability and small profile to execute stealth and assault operations>>Humans use mechs because we've mastered the humanoid formHow does this not apply to any other humanoid species, especially elves>But who would use surface ships?Otter people so they can perform amphibious assaults
>>93197517>The most fearsome sight in a war against elves is an archmage angrily paddling a canoeYeah, but they also summoned the river the canoe is riding on and the teeming creatures in it. He probably won't even take it away when he's done with it, the littering bastard!

>>93194663Ducks
>>93197517>paddles in on a canoe>destroys all of the mechs, tanks, airplanes, etc with BS magic.>paddles away while sighing at the foolishness of mortals and how their greed and curiousity will bring destruction.>he is the one that causes the apocalyptic calamity in the end
>>93194663Elves.LotR elves were master mariners.
>>93197421Anon's a loser who thinks traditionalism is le bad.>>93197533Dwarves living underground and trains don't mix. Either they're surface dwellers or they need a really good reason to allow all that smoke and steam underground.
>>93194663Frog race?
>>93194663> But who would use surface ships?Trolls because that way they don’t have to bathe.
>>93199007Til an aspiring human artificer creates a golem-mech with a staff the size of a telephone pole. It's high yield aberration matrix optimized to have a defensive spell lattice as powerful as an archmage but with a fraction of the mana draw.
>>93200351Magnet rails
>>93194900i don't have wheels though
>>93200351>Dwarves living underground and trains don't mixImagine this: subways. They improved minecarts, it's crazy nobody thought about that.
>dwarves use submarines because the cramped, dark, low-oxygen conditions are perfect for them>humans use aircraft because mankind desires most strongly that which it cannot have>harpies use tanks because they're frail and paranoid of physical danger>the british use surface ships because it's how they escape from their women and their cuisine
>>93194900I can't jog at 55 mph.
