MAIN MILITARY WEAPON OF YOUR COUNTRY (MK. II) P2

[The Anglo-Saxon Empire]

Needs barrel spikes so it can be swung like a club.

You could try to go like 100mm gyrojet lever-actions, but I don't even know if demons could into gyrojets.

this is starting to get retarded, and they can't.

That was the point, and oh well. I figured they couldn't and a 100mm gyrojet would be pretty fucking stupid. You'd get like two shots with a tubular magazine.

[Tur Galnos]

The Galnosian Infantry Corp uses a Steampunk-looking Rifle, obviously run off of gunpowder still as steam would make it hard to have a steady fire-rate and stopping power... It fires .45cal Rounds at roughly 58 Rounds per minute in the hands of a trained soldier. It makes soldiers generally able to face off against most thing that aren't heavily armored with some chance of survival and winning, given the bulk of the amount of soldiers in an area at a given time. While it gives up rate of fire for stopping power, it maintains strong accuracy and reliability.

Background, History and Design

It is said that the late 1800s were a time of relative peace in Anemos Major. It is a fact that has bemused historians for years; going from total and bitter conflict in the year 1898, to complete, absolute peace in the following year, seemed to be a political impossibility, especially considering the fact that several large, well known empires either surrendered or sued for immediate peace at great loss to themselves, their pride, and their sources of reliable manservants despite no apparent increase in Anemos Major's military might.

What historians do not understand is that all this was brought about by a single man's patriotic quest and his inadvertent creation of a weapon that cannot be described.

Lord Viceroy Second Marshal Imrantyr 'Bear Killer' Mordent was a man whose reputation, prisoners of war, many wives and facial hair preceded him. The renowned victor of various conflicts with the neighbours, his standing in Anemonian society was high, primarily because of his indisputable achievements and his marble pedestal. Having retired at the age of sixty five from frontline military service due to his desire to retire to a quieter, peaceful life away from the eyes of high society, he intended to retreat into the relative calm and quiet of a part-time career in Fyrkondierikan Bear Wrestling with his prisoners of war, many wives and facial hair. It wasn't to last; quickly growing tired of the cheap thrills of fighting animals twice his size, it dawned upon him that he required something that would marry his ability to wreak havoc with something modern and lasting that would leave his mark on Anemonian society like a pneumatic drill on a china vase.

In 1895, he participated in the valiant defence of the city of Symoirei against the Eight Armed Daemons of the Hellish Torments. Though slaying a multitude, he was forced to retreat in shame from the burning city (a traumatic event that haunted him, his prisoners of war, his many wives and facial hair for years to come). Knocked off his large, ornate and well crafted marble pedestal, the Lord Viceroy was dragged back to reality by the horrors of war. His combat record brought him to the attention of the Crown Ministerial Sub-Office of Paranormal Defence; called upon by the Crown to do his duty for the nation, the Lord Viceroy, seeing his one remaining chance to redeem himself, eagerly took the opportunity in both of his manly, bear like hands.

The one problem was that the Anemonians simply didn't understand the realm of the unknown. Disregarding hundreds of years of covert research into the world of the paranormal, the Lord Viceroy was determined to prove his critics wrong. Months were spent researching, producing and tweaking until he managed to conclusively prove that research, learning and mutual understanding were no match for fucktons(*) of high explosives and enough metal to bankrupt a small country.

The Modelyr 1899 was never designed to be a rifle. It is an artillery piece with provisions for infantry use, assuming that the infantry have muscles as thick as the main mast of a ship of the line and bones as hard as cast iron coated with depleted uranium and adamantium. After several complaints concerning the fact that firing the rifle constituted an act of self-mutilation, later revisions added a bipod to the weapon. Tests confirmed that the bipod served as an interesting cosmetic addition to the weapon without serving much of a practical purpose.

Testing was dismal. The first use of the weapon involved the projectile missing its intended target and creating a sizeable freshwater lake via the armour belt of a battleship; such minor problems in testing were eventually solved by adding sights. After the third round of testing ended after the unfortunate deaths of its members during the testing procedure, the Modelyr 1899 was declared fit for service, and was employed in battle.

Both sides took many casualties at the hands of the weapon. Eventually, the Anemonians won.

You actually put the stock to your shoulder?

It's all very forced, which is embarrassing. I'm feeling kind of sickly at the moment, can't think straight, and feel rather sick, which means my capacity to think and write is gone.

[Oterro]

not doing a write up, gg anemos :/

The AK-74M, might be replaced.

I feel delirious atm, no idea why.

Going to try dispelling it with some kendo drills.

[Anemos Major]

Rock on brother! Wannabe SCAdain right here.

... >:-/

Kendo is not very pre-17th century European, as far as I know. It's a Japanese martial art.

They copied us though.

[Anemos Major]

They copied us though.

Sure, Oterro. Sure.

I know, but we are still both into pre gunpowder era fighting.

Kinda. I do it for the discipline of mind.

[Amastol]

Hmm... I only design small arms.

Does anyone think it might be a good idea to run a joint venture with somebody to expand my range of products a little?

I don't want this to be an operation where I'm reliant on another party; I'd rather have relative parity, or an opportunity for somebody to use my rather limited reputation to showcase their products.

As for you, you already sell small arms, and thus it wouldn't benefit you in any way.

Nothing wrong with specializing if you're happy with it, you could always expand into Infantry equipment and light automatic cannons for vehicle use and stay in roughly the same ballpark.

...But then you would be competing with me and Id have to rip out your liver with a fork.

j/k

maybe.

Yeah, j/k.

Kendo is a martial art in the same way as boxing.

Unsuitable to actual combat, but it teaches the basics and prepares oneself physically and mentally.

Hence art, as opposed to 'practice'.

I think I'll try my hand at a Shipbucket style pre-dreadnought.

[Selliconas]

Wasata

It looks a little like this, the blade is 100% but it also features leaves near the top handle and the wood looks like bamboo.

Boxing is actually very effective on the street, against untrained and unarmed opponents.
In hand to hand combat on the battlefield though, it is inferior to more sophisticated and effective martial arts like Sambo or MCMAP.

It's more boxing does not utilise the feet, granted it is effective when your opponent agrees to a gentlemanly fight of just fisticuffs, otherwise you will require knowledge into wrestling and other forms of fighting in order to complement your punches.

Kendo is the same, it teaches footwork and strikes, but I know many a kendo practionair that couldn't cut a piece of paper with a sword because they cannot keep the edge facing straight downwards.
