Given the circumference of Earth is 40,000km, you only need half that range.

Why would you need such a speed tho ? Firing at other planets?

Escape velocity is not 7900km/s. It's about 11km/s from the surface.

40,000km/s is still a ridiculous speed (although the question may have been about "kms" - kilometres, range - rather than km/s) but you're definitely using kilometres where you should be using metres.

Didn't mean speed, but range.

with that range it would basically be a FOBS system. It's where you put a warhead into low earth orbit and then de-orbit over the intended target. Range is effectively infinite but the extra delta V required to put a payload into orbit will cut your throw weight roughly in half compared to a missile following a purely ballistic trajectory.

Delta-v to LEO = Delta-v for a ballistic trajectory to the antipode.

FOBS, contrary to NS mythology, does not increase range at all. A missile capable of entering orbit is also capable of making a ballistic shot to the opposite point on the planet, or anywhere in between.

how does something with like zero lift maneuver better than a thing with lots of lift?

and what if you had a battalion of mechs is that a exponential battalion?

e: use space m4 shermans with hellbore cannons so you can fight allanea's hellbore space T-34s

gen gerj s[pacey] spittoon

and then you lose to space m27 mediums with hellbores when gen devereux crushes all the little tanks with a bigger better manlier tank

they're more like weirdly shaped f-35 su-27 apache hybrids, rather than mechs... or physics behaves differently in this world.

Why equipping your mecha with rifles if they don't do any damage on impact as in picture two. Why having hands on armor when you can more easily build your weapons in. Why have two legs when you need three contact points with the ground to have a stable platform. Why having a human shaped fighting robot, as it is in nature the worst shape when it comes to fighting.

When fighting an enemy with similar ressources and technology, mechas would lose anytime and cost an arm and a leg to produce and maintain. But in the other hand, the rule of cool applies in full force on them

What scale do you guys prefer when making vehicles in general?

I tried JG Scale, but the size restraint is killing me

Uh, you missed the point of the question.

I'm asking because I want to try an scale and have no idea which is generally the best by most people. I know what I want to do, I know how, I just wish to know what scales are generally common so I at least follow a general scale most people use instead of being the only special snowflake using his own weird 1.4632456 cm = 1 pixel scale

1 pixel : 1 cm might be good if you find JG too small

Like any other nation, Dameth is confronted regularly to third wave rage. Brave freedom fighters who targets the pillars of white supremacist power : freedom of speech, assumption of innocence and rational discussion.

And like any oppressing society, Dameth tries to deal with that issue to maintain its oppressive structures.

But where other nation try to remain the sane guy, Dameth has no such boundary. They are going to play rough? We're going to play rough. Sometimes the answer to insanity is more insanity.

NO PROBLEM HERE MATE.

Meet the 25th Infantry bataillion. Entierely composed of ultraviolent transgender gay black men. You are oppressing them, hetcis white student, they are armed with blunt weapons and they hate when privilege kids speak on their behalf. And remember it is the right of the oppressed to hate their oppressor, shitlord.

So everytime intersectionalist go on strike or whatever, the 25th infantry is deployed. Their orders : enact kharmic justice for the common good and giggles

Besides, what argument would anyone have against the creation of such a unit ? It makes sense at many level from state perspective. Most country would be reluctant to the idea of connecting reinforced wooden clubs to their babies' skulls, but it is part of Damethian culture to like violence and brutal irony. We fill an insane number of international quotas with these guys, and we have given them jobs only them can do.

Would you hire them ? We do. Who have the moral highground now
