Fast (1/100th delay)

Slow (2/100th delay)

This is how the FGR operates.

Bear in mind that because its a manual charging on the first shot. I'll make an automatic version later. Thus is rudimentary rough phase: I want to smooth it out and do different operations, semi-auto, full auto, etc etc. I plan on doing a much smoother one.

Posting again since it seemed to be ignored under a quote pyramid.

Nice operation it runs smooth but you should make a couple more phases so it runs smoother.
OOC: What did you use to make it?


Please explain how you can't do the exact same thing using a PMG weapon as the base? Oh wait, you can do exactly that. Hm. Interesting.

FAMAS G2 is for ultimate win. I still use my own FAMAS-U.

The FAMAS is somewhat overrated, and french.

The French have some firearms credentials. Minie rifle, Lebel (first smokeless cartridge service rifle), reliable breech loading artillery etc.

Yes but there lacking in war credentials relative to many other countries. ;)

1066. Napoleonic Wars. Verdun. Kolwezi.

Kinda helped when Indochina and China herself had crappy militaries compared to the French. But, they DID get their butts wooped multiple times by the Brits, Germans, and Russians (oh yeah, and us during the French and Indian War).

Neither did you Canucks, since most of the wars you won involved you fighting as part of an alliance... kinda like US!

France also did curbstomp Prussia, Spain, Austria, screwed over Russia, conquered large parts of Germany, and Italy, and halted the Muslim advance into Europe. If it wasn't for France, than it is quite likely that much of Europe would be worshiping Allah, instead of being atheist, or christian. The hardest enemy the US has defeated alone is.... Mexico.

Spanish-American War?
The Wars with Mexico?

America has no trouble beating smaller guys, the problem is that it has never faced an equal power militarily.


We DID kick Germany and Japan, the former where we had a big part in, and the latter where we were the major participant in the Pacific War.

Yet America lost against just Vietnam, whom had a vastly crappier military compared to themselves.

Likewise the French beat back the Brits, Germans, and Russians on several occasions. And it was the British who won the French and Indian War, you damned traitors.

American power is economic, not military. They do have a nice military but that is more the fact that their economy allows for them to have lots of nice toys.

What would the mainly military powers be?

Seven Years' War, thank you very much. French & Indian War is for the "winners" south of us.

I use the Lyran HILAR, likely the best AR that NationStates has to offer.
