“As Empire Forces Battled for Malaya,” Kingston Whig-Standard. March 25, 1942. Page 11. ---- These photographs are among the first to arrive from Malaya to show how Australian Imperial forces battled against the Japanese invaders as the empire still fought to hold Malaya. The bottom photograph shows an Australian anti-tank gun in action dominating a road down which clanks a column of Jap tanks. A road block of felled trees delays the tanks long enough for the gun to pick them off like ducks in a shooting gallery.. At the top the tanks are shown —after having served as targets for the gunners. A dead Jap lies beside one of the shattered tanks.

mw3 was completely rushed (i mean the cast ate as usual they never miss) but releasing it a year after mw2 was a terrible decision they should have given it more time

You know, I feel this exact way about so many franchises lately it's honestly unreal. I'd rather wait a while for something knowing that it's going to be great than to instantly have something mediocre in my hands as quickly as they can cobble it together.

I will say, though. Price's ass is still something I'd love to sink my teeth into. That was a genuine highlight. And that's really it.

#also #can someone pls explain to me how Graves is still alive?? did we not see him get pan seared in a tank or am i missing a scene here??#also makarov having Ganesha in his backpocket is honestly so stupid #his plot armour is so thick it's basically a wall and i'm so mad about it #COD does not know how to write good villains #because why is Makarov omnipotent??#egregious #cod spoilers #mwiii spoilers #modern warfare 3 spoilers #mw3 spoilers

Could you imagine being one of the first guys to see a military tank in action. You think surely it can't get any worse. It's war. And then they bust out the apparatus

#ghoul.txt #tanks are by nature cruel brutish perversions of human engineering. as are guns etc #they are so grotesque and evil and an abomination of engineering do you understand.#being inside a landship. hot. covered in asbestos. sitting on an engine. 20-25 guys stuffed onto a repurposed tractor beneath you.#i can't sleep tonigjt but im gonna call it now cos im done reading all i needed to know about the evolution of armoured vehicles in warfare

imagine ur tank getting RPG'd and then the video of it happening is edited like a fucking tiktok

#bold new technique of unescorted armour in urban warfare #i swear they've got zoomers editing those videos it's like chinese cooking tiktoks or something #when I'm in a getting taken out by tandem warhead RPG's competition and my opponent is the Merkava IV

Trying and failing and failing and failing to find any f/f books that i want to read because they suck or theyre badly written or they're shitty fantasy or not fantasy makes me go ok. Well I guess i should finish my book. If I write it. And then dont look at it for a year, i can read it and really enjoy it.

#LOOK i think that horseriding warfare would have been DEVELOPED ok and im in the development time #we are shifting the fall of western zhou a bit further - they hold out a little longer like 3 generations or so #anyway anywat anyway dont start again id have to adjust available armour estimations again and im DONE WITH THAT!!!!

Trying to set my house in order and compile a list...

#OC: Ru'thûn #My notes for Hive OC things are scattered across dozens of half-finished screeds made over years...#I like making lists...#Especially in this manner...#As far as seclusion I would liken the Lash to that of the Silent Brood. Found only in one place...#The Infernal Swarm are a purely incursive sect.#Though their appearance in one's Throne world portends an extinction event.#Are they called the Infernal Swarm because they are likened to demons amongst Hive..?#Or perhaps it is because they are quite literally aflame...#As all of Ru'thûn's Broods they are heavily armoured.#In most cases you'll not notice the fire outright. The smoke plumes from the gaps in their visors...#Getting close to them is a terrible idea... Unfortunately their warfare is that of blades.#Let them get close to you I promise your flesh will not melt from proximity...#As a joke for myself I tend to refer to them as the ''Brazen Brood of Ru'thûn''... like the ''(Brazen) bull of Phalaris''. Makes me giggle.

“Jap Drive Moves Closer To Singapore,” Kingston Whig-Standard. January 28, 1942. Page 1. ---- The guns of war sounded close to Singapore as Japanese invaders of Malaya clashed with British defenders in this area immediately north of the island base. New Japanese advances today moved the battle area within 50 miles of the naval base.

every day the world should be thankful that drath doesn't have a glamour because she would be so so so worse. it's bad enough she can disguise herself to look vaguely human, but if she could walk around bold as brass and we'd be none the wiser we'd be royally fucked.

#;; ooc.#like the only thing stopping her from demolishing humanity is the threat of nuclear warfare #and that if she decided to go cat 5 world ending catastrophic nightmare she would likely destroy A LOT of other life forms #that and humanities plot armour of course fjfnejgjdkfj #so she just bides her time and waits for opportune moments #but yeah if it wasnt for the sake of story she would go full blown annihilation and i think thats sexy of her actually
