Small Arms

Ground Units

I'll add and name them later.

I didn't know that they had legit APCs back then. I just thought trucks, halftracks, railroad, and tanks were used for 'fast' transport, other than walking, flying, or boating.

WTF is a lance?

They're more like light tanks with carrying capacity rather than APC's. Think of them as the starting point of IFV's without actually being one.

My equivalent of an AT rocket launcher. Mortar Lance is exactly what it says on the tin. A portable mortar launcher.

How does that work, exactly...

It's basically something like a Panzershreck merged with a Panzerfaust in the shape of a slim lance. AT rocket is inserted similarly to a Panzerfaust, while fulfilling the role of a Panzershreck.

The reason why they look like lances is because of cultural reasona.

Doesn't look too...efficient....I mean, we could be shaping our aircraft like hammers and our rifles like sickles, but we don't.

You can aim it, shoot it, and kill a tank. Plus, the AT Lance is as large as the Panzershreck, so size is no issue.

Besides, there are a lot of reasons you can't make a plane hammer shaped...

Okay, I have some time today, and will be attempting to make a post for this RP.

I do, however, request that we not go so quick...

by **Grand America** » Tue Apr 24, 2012 1:03 pm

OK, well, I'm writing, but I'm not done. I need a bit more information before I can continue. Sorry.

Please don't write until I post this, though...

If you declare war I'm calling BS.

On who?
And no. Remember, you guys, the Union is isolationist!

*rolls eyes*

So was the UESR, up until now.
I also find it curious that the ULER saw through our ruse so effectively. But whatever.
I'll have to post later when I have more time.

Eh? You said that you fed me false info that you were going to attack the Baltic states. Which is where (most) of my western forces are now assembled. I don't know if I interpreted what you said correctly, I suppose.

Oh. You never said 'most of your western forces'. The idea was to draw a a lot of troops away from the Belarussian-Ukrainian-UESR border.

The girls are preparing their post now, please watch warmly until it is read.

ULER flag.

Also, The Battle of Narva River takes place on April 20th, 1940.

by **New Emperica** » Tue Apr 24, 2012 5:58 pm

The UESR's flag is the Soviet flag with a few orange stars around the hammer and sickle, sort of like China's flag with the four stars.

by **Grand Britannia** » Tue Apr 24, 2012 6:06 pm

My flag.

All shall perish before Britannia!

I had posted this on the IC :rofl:

by **New Emperica** » Tue Apr 24, 2012 6:14 pm

Omg...little tidbit: the Narva River is a little under 16 feet deep at most parts.

It is also about 0.3 miles wide.

Also, screw that comrade. Your land is what you had prior to the beginning of the RP. Plus Mongolia for me.

Silly Emperica, that's my land post war :twisted:

Only me controlling all of Europe and not Japan.

0.3 miles wide?! I imagined it way smaller than that. Well... the battle is taking place at a narrower portion of the river, then. (Crossing a quarter-mile of water under enemy fire in a river that deep would be suicide. I'm pretty sure the even the zerg-rushing Empericans wouldn't even be that stupid.)

When I'm done with Xani, and you decided not to side with me, I believe I will have enough resources at the time to steamroll what's left.

Course that would mean this WW2 will make the RL war look like child's plays in terms of human losses.
