What games let you shoot up medieval knights with modern firearms, or blast Industrial Revolution era forces with sci-fi weapons? The only thing that comes to mind is Darkest of Days, which didn't really take the idea far enough.
Empire Earth, Civilization and Rise of Nations
Unless you specifically mean shooters, then you are basically fucked
>>324249427
Sauce please
>>324249542
I know RTSs do it a lot, but I did mostly mean more action oriented stuff. Plus in RTSs, don't the civilisations tend to advance at simliar speeds, for the most part? That what's I found in the Age of Empire games anyway.
>>324249697
Gate, interesting premise but of course it had to turn into less action, more fantasy princesses fawning over yaoi manga
>>324249697
My little sergeant can't be this cute.
>>324249697
Gate, original source is LN but 'read' the manga, anime is sanitized to hell and back.
Also expect .jp ultranationalism to the degree that's usually reserved for USians.

>Also expect .jp ultranationalism to the degree that's usually reserved for USians.
It's kind of nuts how many faggots on /a/ get triggered by this series, it's literally nothing but /pol/-esque shitposting now. If you're not still butthurt over WWII or are able to undertand that people from other nations can also have the concept of patriotism, it really shouldn't be an issue.

>badly trained japanese defense force can jump into the middle of a battle with a bayonnet affixed on a rifle and kill shit tons of trained warriors with it.
the manga itself was dumb, i don' want to imagine the anime, everything they do in the manga is a decisive victory with no losses.
Gate is the kind of bullshit i imagined when i was 6 years old playing with plastic green soldiers vs medieval knights from my toy box, it's a fucking show for kids targeted at teens and older.

?

Palace goons who probably got out of actual warfare by smoozing with the Prince != trained warriors. You can tell that they're complete idiots from the way they attack without any coordination and get picked off one by one.
>>324251424
Nah,I just want to see what it is and maybe I'll have a nice laugh.
>>324251879
It's pretty goofy. Really, it's less about NIPPON BANZAI and more about trouncing the not-Roman Empire with modern warfare. The bit where they manage to pick off the CIA is a bit much, but then it's established that they had a massive intel advantage, which they then lose when political leverage is used against them.
And then everyone gets massacred by a loli demigoddess, because this is an LN adaptation. It's very silly.
>>324252134
Sound like my type of thing,though if the not-Roman Empire won it would have been even funnier.
>>324252134

Well the not-Romans also have fantasy monsters. They do start putting up a fight, but the anime hasn't gotten to that point yet.
>>324252262
Calm down, I'm not even an American. I don't give a shit about the politics as presented in the series (my country isn't even represented in it), but I can at least see why someone would think it was a bit much for the SDF to wipe out US troops without the slightest effort, even if it's own their own turf. Really though, it's just dumb fun, both sides should take it less seriously.

Same as the Iraqi Army. 'Trained by' means not much. Here's some winning nations that received US Army training
Post Saddam Iraq
South Vietnam ARVN
Saudi Arabian 'Special Forces'
It's axiomatic, if a nation hasn't actually had active engagements as an army, then it's first fights are going to be shitshows as it adjusts.
There's no amount of training that can cover actual experience - primarily because the actual experience will inform training policy - see Col. John Boyd's Patterns of Conflict.

>>324258598
Are you retarded? It's nothing like that
It's that their military literally can't do shit, but in gate they're the first in, no other country can do anything, and somehow regular soldiers beat American spec ops
Considering that its written that if they ever need to go to war america will handle it all, and almost all their shit is American supplied, yeah its pretty fucking retarded
>>324258980
>regular soldiers beat American spec ops
do they fight the American military ? or do the Americans go in first and get rekt?
>>324258980
>they're the first in
The Gate opens in fucking Ginza. Why would anyone else be allowed in first?
>no other country can do anything
Because the Gate is in fucking Japan.
>somehow regular soldiers beat American spec ops
A small spec op of maybe five to ten guys who were only supposed to grab the Gate-citizens and get out. Who were fucked over because of some betrayal so the entire SDF knew where they were and when they were going to strike. And also the Chinese and Russian forces struck at the same time.
Also, maybe one or two guys actually get beaten by the SDF, the remainder get killed taking out the Russian and Chinese forces or by the loli demigod.
>Considering that its written that if they ever need to go to war america will handle it all
It doesn't say, however, that the JSDF cannot act to protect the nation. And the Americans do help and supply the SDF in the manga. It's just that the US, China and Russia all try to get hold of the Gate-citizens off-record and it goes tits up because they all acted at the same time. And because one of the citizens is a superhuman monster who wasn't interested in coming along quietly.
>>324259717
the mc and the main girls come back to our world
while staying at a hot spring or something the u.s. , russians and chinese all send teams to kidnap the girls
the japs defend against them without losing anyone until u.s. blackmails prime minister to make them pull out then the mc and gang finishes off the teams
>>324260241
>the japs defend against them without losing anyone
Because they had intel which let set up well in advance with a much larger force. Also they only killed about two guys.
>then the mc and gang finishes off the teams
More like three different factions wipe each other out and the otherwordly demigod finishes off the rest. Itami and his actual team don't even act until the rest of them are already dead.

We simply can't count the number of anti-alien invasion movie there is now.
>>324261321
>having fictional battles with countries to make them feel better
Like no one else has ever done that.
Anyway, the Japanese have taken the piss out of their defense force since the 70s Godzilla movies. This is one of the few cases where they actually try to make them look good for something. Probably a result of feeling threatened by China and the SDF making actually making themselves useful after the 2011 tsunami and fukushima disaster.
>>324261786
>the only thing that's really silly is that one SDF girl killing a dozen soldier with a bayonet.
I'm pretty sure it was only supposed to be 3-5, and it was the ones who were more lightly armoured and attacked haphazardly. The proper guards stayed back and trie to surround her with shields up, which is when she started firing on them like in the OP.
Kuribayashi is also supposed to have top tier CQC skills and proper bayonet combat training, the anime kind of made it look stupid by having her roll and jump all over the place like a retarded ninja. And lastly, what wasn't shown in the anime is that Tomita was covering her, taking out anyone who managed to get to her blind spots.
>>324261523

I don't recall people having fantasy battles against their allies
isn't the jsdf actually like the 5th or 6ths biggest army in the world?
>>324262832
Japan hasn't had proper enemies since WWII and America was an enemy back then. There are also people in Japan who don't like being America's bitch.
Honestly, I don't see the big deal. Maybe it's because I'm a Britistani and we're used to being portrayed as villains who lose to heroic underdogs, but it's better to take it in your stride. The Germans and Russians fucking thrive on this shit, too.
>>324263024
They have a pretty big Navy, probably the biggest in Asia.
>>324263024
No, they're a bunch of garbage cleaners that happen to be able to carry guns.
The anime called "Zipang" sort of does this, you have a modern Japanese naval cruiser being sent back to WW2, and they try to avoid changing the course of history.
Sorry, couldn't think of games.
Why are americans so insecure that a goddamn anime triggers their national autism?
>>324263704
as a fellow brit I must point out that it is in fact the English who are portrayed as villains. We Scots are portrayed as goofy joke characters
>>324263024
its not that big ,but it could become a major naval power again

Because we're so used to only seeing our own country being stupidly patriotic that when someone else does it we realize how stupid it looks.

I'm pretty sure bullets couldn't penetrate a solid shield like that unless it's something much higher caliber.
>>324264881
7.62 NATO is pretty baller, mate.

Baller enough for a big iron shield like those legionnaires would use?
>>324258613
>tfw the anime got a superior muscular Idolm@ster design
>>324265217
Probably. People stopped using plated armor and shields in battle because guns didn't give a shit.
>>324264881
>>324264504
I know, but it's easier to say Brit than anything else to anyone outside of Europe. Anyway, there are good Scottish villains, Macbeth is about as iconic as you can get.
>We Scots are portrayed as goofy joke characters
I guess in most fantasy scenarios anyone without a NA or home counties accent gets relegated to comic relief, and the guys with RP get to be villains and maybe royalty. Dunno why that became the standard, but there you go.

>>324265217
A shield is never entirely made of steel, it's usually wood with bronze or iron on the surface.
I mean Kuribayashi shot people through their wooden shields with her sidearm.
>>324265632
Nigger, do you think the whole shield was made of metal? No one would be able to even fucking lift the thing if it was, jesus christ why is that retards like you always try to argue when you know fuck all
>>324265716
>can't fuck the boat

AP rounds go right through steel. Google some AR500 target test videos, steel core ammo goes right through it, and I doubt some podunk fantasy fags were making steel that nice.
>>324265447

>>324266481
>they already said they'd return the hostages and the emperor agreed to peace talks
I don't think they strictly agreed to that. Suguwara basically said 'find the other hostages and return them, or we'll fuck you up' and the Emperor didn't really give a clear response. The Senate building was probably just to show that they weren't fucking around.

handgun rounds will go through both car doors and still have enough energy to kill you on the other side.

Any of the Timesplitters games can do it in skirmish matches. You can have aliens vs amazons; plasma rifles vs crossbows.

Is it basically anime Japanese Stargate?
Even the uniforms look like SGI 1.
>>324269328
If I remember correctly, Kuribayashi was SF material and a test subject to the feminization of the special forces, and was looking forward facing people in battle with the toughest soldiers there are.
Instead she got Itami and Kurata singing anime openings.
>>324269328
The SDF 64s had significantly reduced powder charge for reduced recoil.

The JSDF uses a 7.62 as their standard service rifle?
>>324270891
They used mostly mothballed equipment for the units that went through the gate.
>>324270891
Used to. They used the Type 64 to be specific, which got replaced by the Type 89 as the standard-issue rifle, althuogh Type 64s are still around for other roles.
>>324269809
>>324269784
That's nice and all but even a reduced-charge 7.62x51mm cartridge has a pretty hefty recoil. You'd need to be Jerry fucking Miculek to control its recoil THAT well.
>>324250906
I just think it's retarded how they glorify the JSDF, of all things, when it is the product of a huge defeat in ww2 and the most cucked military force in the entire planet, even shat on by japanese civilians in real life. They also conveniently brush off the fact that they aren't allowed to invade by constitution and pretend that the US can't stop them from having 100% control of the gate, despite the huge military presence of the US in Japan.
>>324270891
In GATE, they only sent out old shit in order to keep the costs as low as possible in case of a forced retreat to our world.
Hence the old Howa Type 64, type 74 tanks and Fantom F4s planes. The current SDF rifle is the 5.56 Howa type 89.

>>324271493
The anime took some serious liberties with the source material, they had her roll and jump around like a demented chimp and casually auto-fire by herself when in the LN she was using careful burst fire and and only bayonetting guys who got to close, while her partner covered her from guys who got into her blindspots.

Turkey adopted a 7,62 weapon as their new service rifle. Won't hear me saying a lot of nice things about T*rks, but their army has seen lots of live action against Kurds, and it is generally considered that they aren't complete idiots.
>>324271657
thanks, downloading nao.
curious if they'll actually advance the story or if it's just (intended) qt girls doing cute things.
>>324271801
Mosin-Nagants and the 7.62x54mmR rounds have a bit of a reputation for dislocating shoulders. I don't claim to be %100 accurate with my claims since the gooks don't want to share their 7.62x51mm rounds or their Type 64s with others.
>>324272228
Yeah, the anime went full-retard with that stuff. I guess it's not that unexpected since iirc JSDF had officially recognized the anime, or something along those lines, so it'd make sense for them to boast.
>>324272230
They've been using the G3, which is also a 7.62x51mm rifle, ever since the 50s, anon. The rifle itself is new but the round isn't for them.
>>324267171
But if you're posting here, you're the crossboarder.
I KNEW ALL ANIME-ONLY FAGS WERE CROSSBOARDS.
>>324272475
>I guess it's not that unexpected since iirc JSDF had officially recognized the anime, or something along those lines, so it'd make sense for them to boast.
Honestly, you'd think they'd rather stick with the more controlled and sensible approach, if anything I'd say that that it was the studio's decision to go for a more exaggerated kung-fu movie-esque approach for the anime audience.
>>324272475
>Mosin-Nagants and the 7.62x54mmR rounds have a bit of a reputation for dislocating shoulders
Well this guy (my coworker from Belarus) was deaf for several days because he believed ear protection was for pussies.
Also we all got bruises from firing it, but guns+beer+hotdogs is pretty much my idea of the American Dream now.
>>324272475
Can't find a source now, but I think I remember reading that the army was given 5.56 rifles for field testing, and they specifically requested something closer to .308 because most of their engagements with K*rds were at a longer range.
>>324272972

F-4 Phantom II. Its a cool plane but there is a reason they call it "The Lead Sled"
>>324273450
It was a 1927 rifle, I don't know about the short model.
Also you're a masochist, what the hell.
>>324272972
My dad once took me hunting and he fired his 7,62x54R rifle next to me while were standing at the bottom of a small valley.
When I woke up the next morning, I swear my ears were still ringing a little. Never let me fire it though, he said as long as I don't have my licence I should stick with the shotgun ;_;
>>324272794
Yeah, but dumb, flashy moves appeal to much larger audiences compared to disciplined, controlled moves.
>>324272972
Man I know that feel. Ear protection ain't no joke.
And yep, that is indeed the American dream. And damn is it nice.
>>324273068
Yep, that's precisely what happened. They were originally given Mehmetcik-1 rifles, which were crappy HK416 clones, and the Army said that 5.56x45mm wasn't enough for their usual engagements. And so the MPT-76, their new rifle, which is probably a crappy HK417 clone, was born.
The Eastern region of Turkey, which is Kurd turf, is mountainous as fuck, and in that sort of region long-range firefights happen more often.

I'm not very well versed in an*me, but I watchinb it I was pretty convinced that the whole series was commissioned by the Jap army on the occassion that they transformed from a self-defense force to an army.

>DOWN WITH USA ESPECIALLY
>JAPAN STRONK
>JAPAN DA BEST
>GRAND EMPIRE OF JAPAN SOON!
>MUH BEST IN THE WORLD (though this isn't actually far from the truth, Japan's special forces are quite good, but that's cause they can train constantly since they can't fight anywhere)
Etc. There. Summed it up for you. Watch it if you want to laugh at a country that thought making guns look ornate was a good idea, having machine guns with gravity fed boxes and pistols which were more dangerous to them than the guy they were firing at.
>>324276415
Well America is trying to get Japan to become a full army.
We want them nice and strong so they can continue to dish out more waifus
>>324277927

I just meant as a answer to his/your question but yeha its a pretty fun anime
>>324267406
Does anyone end up waifuing her?
>>324249427
I'm fine when they're just slaughtering the fantasy world people with guns and artillery but when this bitch just runs in and solos a dozen knights with just her bayonet that's a bit too retarded.
If the guys with swords aren't even good at melee combat what's the point.
The JSDF in this anime are like the military equivalent of Saitama.
>>324269952
Yeh it's too overdone at this point.

How many times have we shoved a Westerner into a pivotal position for our Samurai movies?

>Muh Nanking
approach, etc.
>>324249946
Actually you're completely wrong. The series does stuff like this in ebbs and waves. The next big part is the go fight (and kill) that huge fire dragon.Too bad it kills all the dark elves first lol.

Looking at them both, the manga looks better because it looks different and arguably more realistic. The anime looks like easily 90% of the rest of weaboo anime bullshit.
I don't even watch that shit you cocksuckers just keep coming here.
>>324280397
>It's going "we're best and don't need anybody else, Japan great, Japan will rule all!"
GATE was never really made with a Western audience in mind, it's a Japanese product for a Japanese audience and any Westerners who get involved in it are doing so purely from localization so I don't see why Japan should realize they might offend people who are into those ancient cultures (in the same way America might not have realized making a Westerner the big deal in an ancient Samurai movie might offend cultural sensibilities.)
Relax nigga, your own country probably has countless types of media like this as well.
>>324280689
What about the attacks against defenseless civillians in japan? What about that?
>>324280397
Why should I take you seriously when you're egregiously wrong, to the point where it looks like you haven't even seen it?
>It's going "we're best and don't need anybody else, Japan great, Japan will rule all!"
That literally never happens. They're not there to rule, they're there to prevent the Empire from attacking their country again and to establish peaceful negotiations.
And why would they need anyone else against a civilization that's almost 2000 years behind the modern world?
>>324280876
Also it's not even that they don't accept help, it's clearly stated at the beginning that they accepted supplies and support offered by the US.
>>324280868

The barbarians in question already ransacked their capital and massacred hundreds/thousands of civilians without warning. And they have no way of communicating with a nation whose language has no relation to anything found on modern Earth.
You know what, it's fine. I know when I've been rused. Time to call it a day.
Officially localized version of GATE where the americans succeed when?
>>324280689
God damn.... just like back in 1937
god anime is fucking awfu
>>324269736
The idea is similar.
>aliens come through the gate to attack us
>we fuck them up
>we go through the gate to colonize
>turns into humanitarian mission for the impoverished people on the other side
Like stargate, it's mostly about exploring this new land and trying to be peaceful with the villages they come across.
>>324281412
Never. Go read Captain America comics if you want US propaganda.
>>324281186
Well look at it this way, they had a bunch of civilians killed, and were attacked when establishing a foothold. Every nation would act pretty much the same and historically HAS acted the same.
At least they're not pulling an America and bombing KNOWN civilian medical centers.
Continue being an americuck
>>324281362
I didn't make it. I found it on /a/ months ago.
>>324281368
Still didn't address how they have a political figure as the supreme commander, erected warning signs in Japanese, don't even bother to have a proper translator, how excessively violent they are etc.
Daikatana
So the JSDF is so worthless and pathetic that they can only win fights against people still stuck in antiquity?
At least the Imperial army in Muv-Luv had to fight waifu eating rape aliens, even for power-fantasy horse shit this is fucking sad.
>>324264787
I think it's also the obnoxiousness of pairing up such underpowered mooks as a bunch of not legios getting gunned down. It's not exactly impressive when it's so lopsided and is 300 jingoistic tier. But yeah you're right that part of it is the shoe being on the other foot. Then again I'd be more able to take it seriously if a country of actual military power was the one doing the masturbatory fantasy - a China or Russia or Uk or France as opposed to a Japan, an Australia, a Thailand, a Indonesia. When it's some state with a small neutered military who've been peaceful and not at war for closing in on a century doing it, it tends to come across as ridiculously wish-fulfillment.
20-40 more years and Japan on the trajectory of reclaiming their testicles that Abe is putting them on and yeah I could dig it. But right now it comes across as ludicrous as if a Pajeet had their Jaeger powered by poo leading the fight against the Kaijus.

Why would you bother arming your military that well when you have literal US bases near you? Besides no matter how well armed and trained they were they couldn't do shit if China decided it was time for WW3.

Only mentioned once in the thread, but I wanted to expand on that.
At one point you're literally fighting undead Crusaders with your modern firearms. They even throw tentacled, disemboweled child soldier crusaders at you.
