Creating You (Make Your Own Everything) V.3

[Gear 1]

Just stop.

A simple "Yall boys are trippin" would suffice.

From a soldier's perspective, wouldn't it be enough to say, "There is the enemy; go get them!"

Savages or not, stolen uniforms or not, all the soldiers really want to do is execute their orders and go home alive. If that hinges on them having superior firepower (square rounds notwithstanding), then so be it.

Unless you have RoE, like trying to separate the killer savages from the peaceful savages, drawing up on the battle line should be easy to do.

Who are you and why do you not just ortillery them?!

Crits welcome!

Very nice indeed.
Just one question though; what are the vehicles with the red birds on?

If the enemy is standing in front of me, unless I have a deathwish, I will not call down artillery fire DANGER CLOSE. If they're someplace I can observe and correct, of course an artillery barrage is called for. However, I do (in my own sick way) like to watch what happens when a PIAT or a LAW rocket or something meant to knock down a whole area of troops hits that one unfortunate squaddie square on and detonates.

I didn't think we were getting into full blown warfighting doctrine, but if so, my nation's motto rings true: In Strength Comes Peace. I'll knock 'em all down at a distance before my ground pounders come in to mop up their slimy remains and hoist the colors.

Our national religion (Sacrae Fides) is based on the Graeco-Roman Pantheon, not an Abrahamic Religion. So, Red Cross/Red Star/Red Crescent = Red Eagle.

But...

Squaddie is slang for a British soldier!

I joke.

Mine's pretty similar, except we go 'In Extreme Prejudice Comes Peace'. Instead of ground-pounders, it's some form of spear-head unit of MBTs and IFVs to level the entire enemy position before the men dismount.

Well done.

I take it that your "universal symbol" for the medics is that white panel with the red bird?

Mine is 3 flames (or subdued to triangles) which stands for the Heart, the Body and the Mind.

Mm-hmm. It gets complicated.

In my region there's me. A red sun/moon (Harmonism: MLP religion), red cross, red rose (Imerian - or crescent/cross for Muslim and CHristian regiments), not red caduceus, technically Cel's flames (as he has a mutual assistance pact, unless he wants to nullify it, despite not being in-region), etc. etc.

[Wallenbergia]

I had had these sitting in one of my folders for a little over a year now, and only finished them about 2 weeks ago. What do you people think of them, particularly the colors? As I am colorblind, I can never tell if the colors are quite right, and apparently make things look "wonky".

They are really good. I especially love the detail on the hilts.
If I were you though, I would lighten the darker sword up sos it isn't the same colour as the hilt.

Oddly enough, I picked up on the medical logos and then noticed the vehicles are armed. Not a problem in and of itself, but not generally accepted among the medical types that their vehicle should have a weapon on it.

Personally, my army lives by the "Every man (or woman) a Rifleman" creed. So even soldiers who are trained at the Joint Medical Service School or the Federal Paramedic Training Academy (which trains civilian and military alike), must first qualify as fighting soldiers before going to their "A" School. Same is true withe Navy, Air Force, etc. Even the seaman striker who scrapes barnacles at the port can pick up a weapon and start taking names.

All my MEDEVAC equipment is capable of self-defense (which if my world had the Geneva Convention, medics are allowed to protect themselves and the wounded under their care), but the crew are often permitted to up-gun their vehicles, if there was something they could get their hands on and operate. During one campaign against a border incursion, an Infantry medic team, assigned to a basic MEDEVAC LAV with a medium MG traded it to an enterprising supply sergeant at a rear salvage unit for a fully armed Mark 1 (M2A3) Bradley IFV. Suitably painted with red crosses, out they went, shooting up enemy units as they collected friendly casualties on the battle lines. (The crew got into a little hot water, but not much.)

I think you spelled "Sargent" wrong.

1) I didn't spell Sergeant wrong, I spelled 'Serjeant' correctly. 2) You did spell Sergeant wrong.

Huh, a little above what we get. But ours is that a medical vehicle cannot intiate contact and it cannot fire upon non-engaging hostiles. So, if the Medevac is not fired upon, while an escorting vehicle is then legally the medevac cannot fire (fuck that... *ratatatat*), but if a bullet hits the medevac, it can.

Sadly, for you, in this case Serjeant is the original term.

1. so did you
and
2. we went over this a few pages back. That is the apparent British spelling of the word.

EDIT: I need a good color for windows. I have a HTML color code site but nothing looks "windowish". I would like to know if anyone has a good color I can use.

'The etymology of the term is from Anglo-French sergant, serjant, from Latin servient, serviens, to serve.'

2) Not the British spelling, an archaic term in use in Britain.

Only in the rifles.

[Den Svenska Riket]

yes, so... my building is 85% complete but I need a good color for the windows, I want to add frost, and of course, shading, so C&C is welcome and a glass-like color that isn't blue would be nice as well.

[Wallenbergia]

They are really good. I especially love the detail on the hilts.
If I were you though, I would lighten the darker sword up sos it isn't the same colour as the hilt.

Thank you very much. I just used the blade from the other one to keep with color standardization:


Also, a WIP (not much else will be done as it's supposed to be simple) poor persons's sword:

I like the poormans sword. That is cool but I liked the sword with the black hilt better when the blade was dark. I think a leather hilt with an obsidian-like blade would be very cool to see.

Now you should make highly decorated scabbards

[Coltarin]

Never got much feed back on these, the top and middle are same but with the combat information visor activated.

Thanks to Vec for the arms.

[Den Svenska Riket]

This is my building that is 99% done. I would love C&C on what you guys like, what you love, and what could be better. just click to see it in full size! I hope this isn't blown away by random crap as usual.
