You don't know about death. Nothing can teach you about death like Majesty taught a generation of children about death.
Bilbo Sheepswood is still in my heart, as are the thousands of his kin who threw themselves at the wizard's tower for the small fortune of gold I put there.
"My journey... ends..."
Grandpa was drafted 80 years ago and told me some stories when I was a kid. I now have all the knowledge of a seasoned officer
My grandpa served on a liberty ship and showed up just in time to hang out on various islands in the South Pacific.
So yeah, I feel qualified to discuss the finer points of SSBNs.
Reading is far too credible. All my knowledge came to me in a dream
I've played Hearts of Iron 1 through 4. Certified armchair general.
on military units have only read about
Read about? What's with all these unrealistic expectations? smh
Half the guns I own are because of the Metal Gear Solid series.
You guys need to get on my level.
The only gun I want is because of MGS. I want that USP of Snake's so bad... It's way more expensive than I ever thought tho.
The USP might be one of the cheapest non-Soviet firearms in that series of games.
The hk usp mk23 mod 0 is decidedly not cheap nor small. Iirc a legit low use correct era version will cost you like 7k ATM.
When I had looked years ago, just a basic one was $5k. It was the first time I looked up the price of a firearm that wasn't a Walmart rifle/shotgun. I expected a few hundred; not a few thousand.
This was brand new, of course. Maybe a used one would be cheaper. Especially if it was used in a crime 🤷🏻♂️
As someone with a master degree in historical warfare (I played a game of CK3 in ironman) I can confirm this posts credibility
I've played Tarkov, so I'm something on an expert myself.
Absolutely sick at pillaging
Excuse me, I may be a sandwich artist but my decision to call the F-35 an embossing boondoggle is based on countless minutes of research.
Over 10k hours in Arma Series games and 1k+ in Tarkov, I am the firearms instructor now.
Thats totally how this works, right?
Fuel-air bombs are neat.
