What's the scariest thing about the AN's military? Part V

[The Republic of Western Sol]

Pretty sci fi

[Godular]

You know somebody's going hardcore if they've committed warcrimes against NAZIS.

[Neo-Western East Korea]

Looking at the MT factbook, it would probably be the Lunar Battery, considering how incredibly difficult it would be for a counter strike against such a system, especially considering our own highly limited anti-space capability

[Metcalfer2]

I would have to say the Special Weapons Division, from looks of it they seem to have a lot fingers in the same pies we are messing about, specifically war crimes pies. Besides that I find the extreme competence of their military to be it’s own type of frightening.

[Bukravia]

Probably everything.

[Tremulo]

Probably their use of shock and awe tactics with massive armies and rapid advances. Even if it doesn't work, it still seems quite effective.

[The African Emirates]

AAN: Their use of the Sniper Trap tactic. Imagine your comrade gets injured by a sniper, you go to get him, then your team gets wiped out

Ninja'd

AN: I'd say their modern tank. Not only does it look dangerous, it looks sick as hell

[Tremulo]

Their use of the Sniper Trap tactic. Imagine your comrade gets injured by a sniper, you go to get him, then your team gets wiped out

Apologies for the ninja, lol.

[The Republic of Western Sol]

Space force

[New Kowloon Bay]

They committed war crimes.

For AN, the factbook on spaceships is hidden in my dispatches.

There is also a military factbook.

[The African Emirates]

Space force

That's... our entire military

[Cybus1]

The enemy possesses not only advanced energy weapons (Dark Matter), but also magical weapons; furthermore, they have (somehow?) combined nuclear weapons with biological weapons to create "bio-nuclear bombs".

[Remulia]

The Ravenelki Guard: they have weapons that can erase parts from reality.

[Tremulo]

They have guns that completely dismantle an object, or person's, atoms. And they have them on their ships and fighters, in addition to their infantry. Watching entire armies get blasted and then Thanos snapped out of reality would be a terrifying sight.

[Metcalfer2]

There isn’t particularly anything scary about their military, I guess having five hidden nukes is a bit scary but that’s about it.

[Laka Strolistandiler]

Spite Class Cobalt Bomb

^
This. I’m very tired of Sagan-ish descriptions of nuclear weapons on this site as all-destroying things one hit with which levels a whole city and results in a nuclear winter, however, a cobalt bomb is something which really CAN end the world for h7manity, and the fact that AN utilizes them en masse leaves me even more scared

BN if you’d have time to look through some of my IC posts on the forums I’d greatly appreciate that

[The African Emirates]

Their extreme willingness to kill the entire populace of the nation rather than having it fall into enemy hands.

Forget scorched earth tactics, these are obliterated earth tactics.

[The Caleshan Valkyrie]

The fact that they have weapons that they openly admit are pure BS... and possess relevant countermeasures.

(Of course, technically ALL FT weapons are BS... but being so blatant about it is certainly a little off-putting)

[Utquiagvik]

just their hardiness to extreme conditions.

[Azur Deutschland]

There is nothing scary about what just appears to be a massive bluff.

[Laka Strolistandiler]

The fact that they extensively employ magical technologies some of which balance on a slim line between magic and lovecraftian cosmic horror.

[The Republic of Western Sol]

The fact that they can orbitally bombard me almost effortlessly

[Gonswanza]

The mk.2 hodgson terrifies me due to mechanical complexity and the massive turn radius... Even if the armor and weapons are sufficient, agility will suffer unless its using a special steering mechanism to get around... Plus the reduced ground pressure means it can get places few tanks of similar size can.

[Neo-Western East Korea]

I’d probably say the Gangut, considering our own anti-submarine tactics are not up to snuff, along with the fact it’s able to carry 8 nukes meaning it could likely get at least 1 into the country, even if we detected and started shooting em down.

[Drifterica]

They’re very patriotic and since all adults are conscripted, it would be hard for us to break there spurt and stop them from fighting. We’d also be likely outnumbered numerical
