NS Military Realism Mk. 7: NO

[Roski]

that would only reinforce that dumbasses idea that guns are good

They are good when the enemy fleet is decapitated.

[Oaledonia]

I lost it after Huuyga on his page.

[Atomic Utopia]

That's a terrible waste of a nuclear warhead!!!

How dare!

A better use would be to EMP the fleet, then rain fiery destruction in the form of 14inch cannons.

They could use Faraday Cage to counter it, in fact you would not get a good emp from anything non-nuclear to begin with.

He built a warship so large that if I missed it with an ICBM that means my ICBM blew up on the way there.

And I would of course use nuclear warheads.

The problem with using anything to prevent pulses of EM radiation from frying your stuff is that the thing you are using must by definition block out EM radiation. This is fine and well if you are trying to shield a computer or an engine block. But if your device is something that actively requires EM radiation to work like say RADAR you can't have it both ways.

What is realistically the furthest length I could make Artillery fire?

[Purpelia]

What is realistically the furthest length I could make Artillery fire?

In theory you could fire shells into space along ballistic paths like ICBM's do with their warheads and land anywhere on the planet.
What you should be asking is what the longest practical range for this stuff is. And that will depend on the weapon in question and the role you intend to use it in.

Artillery hidden from view, intended to wipe out soldiers defending on the other side of a border.

[Yukonastan]

What is realistically the furthest length I could make Artillery fire?

Up to fifty kms for a 155 with excalibur, at a perfect angle, from high to low ASL terrain.

That's not too bad.

[Padnak]

I imagine that with rocket assisted shells and a big gun, I'm thinking 203mm+) you could get some crazy range

I know that a side affect of nuclear weapons is the electromagnetic pulse. Is it realistic for there to be a bomb that has the EMP without the nuclear? Also, is that realistic in a modern-day setting? Someone probably asked this already, but I quite honestly don't have time to go through 165 pages.

Realistic? Yes.
Modern Tech Realistic? No.

That's quite well PMT, FT by some definitions.

How much should I care about these "designs"

I thought I recognized Zerinfriom from somewhere.

I'm going to be taking severe advantage of these ships.

[Padnak]

brb, going to get the bad idea flame thrower

Speaking of flame throwers, ships and bad ideas, would attacking a ship with a large flame thrower actually accomplish anything?

We already have Non-nuclear EMP based weaponry in active service, so it definitely is MT.

Its no where near the scale or scope at which Nuclear EMP's can reach but they are a real thing.

I figured.

Well, what's the farthest realistic distance for a sniper to hit (Modern Tech)? Also, I already know the answer, but I'm just throwing this in here for fun. Are the wings Sam Wilson wore in Captain America: The Winter Soldier realistic?

[Licana]

What is realistically the furthest length I could make Artillery fire?

How long is a piece of string?

This question doesn't have enough information to give more than an arbitrary answer.

Realistic? Yes.
Modern Tech Realistic? No.

Except Non-Nuclear EMP devices exist today, and aren't even particularly difficult to make or deploy.

Someone already answered it.

-nevermind, answer found-

[Zerinfriom]

Excuse me what would be the best military tactics for a massive Post Modern Tech conflict on my part.

Essentially I want ways to defeat Roski using only half of my military power.

Without God Modding of course

For starters you might want to ask for permission to use other people's hard work. <.< >.>
Then we can talk about the massive damage you wrought to yourself.

It is fine I deleted those fact books after seeing your "ego boosting" comments I am totally not hurt right now.

But more about how too Defeat Roski,

and less about the past
