Well one would hope. Except for something that I just thought of, and if I give it much more thought my gunship will probably find itself melted or upgraded next opportunity: It might even mean you ignore most MOAB's. Bombs, including nukes, are so effective on earth because there is a...

No, at least not in real life.

Yeah good point. Propellantless or very very cheap. If you used conventional rocket motors, you turn each launch into a roman candle. If you launch rail guns, you'd have to also have a way of re-positioning the orbit of the launch vehicle after each launch. Most solutions work into quite the...

Hope you have a speedy recovery.

This is true, but they have worked out the physics for the USAF study, and that does work. That was the origin of the 20 ft by 1 ft tungston telephone pole. That was the effective size and shape. The problem with kinetic strikes is they become very expensive ways of executing what amounts...

Fear not. You're not really out of beer, you're just separated from your future beer by time and space. And oh yeah, cash. That is why God invented beer coolers in gas stations and beer stores and such.

Yanno... Except peeing on a hostile space ship... all this stuff is totally possible, just depends on CIG's will to make it happen. (it would be pelted with ice, not wet pee. But still it's a fun thought.)

Welcome to Test @CaptainNoms!!!

Well you could just stand on the "balcony in the back" and pee on uninvited party crashers who might have less than honorable intent. Frozen pee on a hostile Cutlass or Hornet's window window would make it awfully hard to see what's in front that you're trying to shoot at. Be a tad cold for...

You also have all that cargo space in the back, with a nice ramp to roll things down. Going to depend on the mechanics whether or not you can do that. I'd like to think we have a little room for ship role improvisation, So plan, maybe? Problem is of course, theorycrafting is really just...

Welcome to Test @TrashPandaGrrr!!

I see you've crashed a few from the back row.

Mother Of All Bars?

Life would have been so different for a few of my friends who served in Canadian armor, had the invention of the Tank taken place just a little further east. "So what have you been doing since college?" "Oh I drive a TONK eh." Hint: Say that out loud.

See @Blind Owl? He makes a very good point. ... sorry just a joke. Don't buy something you're not sure of.

I was weaker... Got the gunboat. I figure "Let your weakness be your strength" or something like that. It's a pretty bird, with a big punch. I dunno, I just wanted it. There's no real justification other than that. But then some others are buying 2 C2's or a C2 and M2, that's just as nuts...

My culture has a third special day on Sunday. It's called Revenge of the Sixth. It's actually the revenge *from* the Fifth, but it happens on the Sixth. On that day, it's also OK to stand in an in front of the doors of an elevator with a shower curtain rod, and say "Hi, I'm evil"...

... Mine too... I'm keeping the Aquila but the Taurus has GOT to grow up sometime, that time is ... Next week!

That's a really good question. It's part of the design production process. It's made out of wood because it's cheaper than plastic for the manufacturing stage. You could 3d print this, nothing technical stops you. It's just that CNC is actually a lot faster for large objects, and you're not...

... I'm looking at the CNC machine...
