Since the fourth edition's quickly reaching 500 pages, I'm gonna start the new thread here?

Rules: Self explanatory.

I'll continue with South Americanastan's post here:

Probably the fact that they have an attack helicopter with a 2,000 mile range, a mach 0.25 top speed, and a 4 ton payload

Their military policy concerning tanks.

Island nations with a large airforce-- Britannia beware!

In other words, if a country can maintain a large airforce (roughly the size of France's) it generally doesn't need a navy or an army, as guided bombs, torps, and anti-ship missiles carried by multiroles can fairly effectively cover their behind. But they don't stop there, and instead have a massive navy (with 115 aircraft carriers) and a large enough land force to overwhelm a well-off South American country.

Edit: Also boo OP they didn't use a contraction in the thread title 0/10
Doesn't even feel like a successor to thread number 4

The fact that they have harnessed and weaponized black holes so effortlessly, among other extremely destructive forces.

"Despite the relatively small size of their armed forces, their troops are well trained and provided for with equipment adapted to winter conditions. Invading such a nation would prove a challenge for any armed forces, especially given their naval strength as well."

Sengoku Americas: It appears that they have a highly motivated fighting force, with magic to boot. In addition, they still use the MiG-29, which by their time is pushing 70 years old. This means that they are more than able to maintain technology, and combined with magic, would be able to improve existing technology rapidly instead of having to reinvent the wheel.

AN: They have seals

Competent, well funded MT nation- they'd give anything short of a near-FT PMT nation a good fight. Those Type 5 MBTs look pretty decent, too --compactness is highly undervalued today, not to mention their airmobile capabilities.

That their tanks are armed with railguns. We can hardly get any railguns for any of our units, let alone up gunning our tanks. The Vulpius' militaries just refuse to sell them to us. In the event of a confrontation between our tanks, ours might be outgunned.

That their soldiers can fight in any terrain without problems and their battleship has enough weapons to fight against other fleets.

I could go on about the antimatter bombs, grey goo, strange matter, superweapons, and all that, but what really scares me is

that can destroy even an imperial ship with one shoot


That's right, boys. Only ONE shoot, and the imperial ship goes down. If this doesn't scare you, I don't know what will.




BN, don't use the nonexistent NP and Air Force pages.

1st :There ground forces with magnetic guns that can seriously mess up a AI functions to operate in the battle when there malware is fried because of a power magnetic weapon in the battlefield. 2nd : There Automated Automatic fire weapons can do series damage amongst there enemies with metal armor piercing bullets. 3rd there well armored exoskeletons that are deployed in the battle making them a worthy opponent against there enemies in combat.

There low-effort replies.

AAN: It appears that they rely heavily on armoured warfare. Their exoskeletons would allow their soldiers to carry much more armour, weapons and/or ammunition than a military without, which allows them to carry more force multipliers. Additionally, they use the M1 Abrams, which when equipped appropriately is a formidable piece of equipment.

Screw it, I'll do all three.

They may violate national security law.

A competent, and well funded military force. I do wonder what the M16/AK hybrid rifle looks like, though.

MIKU THE BASED
It's like the entire purpose of their schooling system is to train competitive shooters, small metal plates at 400+ meters beware.

Also, Belka.

Yeryuzu
Yall don't have a military factbook, so I'm just gonna assume Krav maga is standard for all military personnel.

"Purnelaws development of Exoskeletons is both sound and practical. They grant enhanced agility, strength, and protection. They also feature protection from most Chemical and Biological attacks, it also makes them practical for aquatic based warfare, and for space combat if that is even applicable to their universe."

Their ability to somehow consistently mount supra-light projectile cannons on their battleship craft, all the while having an IC date of only around the 25th-26th century.
