Post and discuss your ancient or medieval arms and armor.
What would be a good idea for babby's first melee weapon? Preferably something with a gentle learning curve?
Spear? Club?

So, I've been watching too much Gundam cartoons recently, and amidst all the full retard "giant people robots in space," it's had me wondering about the more believable aspects of the show - the space combat.
So how would space combat in the near future occur? In a world where people have just started to colonize the space immediately around earth, how would a war play out? What would spaceships look like?
It'd be like extremely long ranged submarine combat.
Fighting from enclosed containers in three dimensions in hostile environments.
We wouldn't be doing it. Too soft and squishy, too slow. It would be all drone combat. No need for slow maneuvers, no need for atmo, no need to wait for the grey matter to start reacting.

I understand your point there, but in LEO, it seems like it'd be a bit more two-dimensional.
Especially in the Gundam scenario mentioned in the OP, it seems like you'd have most fighting occurring along a single plane, as all of the colonies exist in the Earth-Moon Lagrange points.
When you get closer to earth, you'd start running into issues of being able to hide behind the horizon, as well as not being able to descend too low without risking re-entry.
so my friends and I are designing a video game for a class we're in. Its a first person, paranormal detective thriller, choose your own adventure style set in the 1920s and we're trying to come up with a list of things to be in it (cars, clothes, music ect) they know I shoot guns so thats one of my jobs. What are some guns/features about them you'd personally like to see in a game in general? Im trying to go the opposite of COD where you get 30 guns that all do the same thing, I want each one to feel different and have things like recoil or power be realistic.
Inb4 not /k/ related, fuck off mods theres a dozen "9mm vs .45, VP9 killing the glawk" threads going on at any given time, I want to spice it up
here the list of guns we have on the drawing board so far (subject to change)
pistols
>m1911 of course
>smith and wesson model 10 M&P
>colt 1908
>luger po8
>colt pocket positive
>smith and wesson m1917
rifles/shot guns
>m1917 trench gun
>lupara
>m1903 springfield
>browning auto 5
machine guns
>thomson with a stick magazine 9drums werent around yet)
>BAR
again, we're trying to keep it accurate, simple, and fun at the same time. I obviosuly want shooting but i dont want to go overboard and have it be like an arcade shooter
>>23175179
>set in the 1920s
and youve already sold me. theres not enough games that feature that time period, whcih is such a damn shame
>the birth of organized crime
>prohabition
>birth of jazz music
>cars start getting better
>the clothes
so undrappreciated becuase its not muh modern tech warfare where you can have a compute-gun do all the work for you
whats a "choose you own adventure" game exactly? is it like a choose you own adventure book or do you get to design it or something?
I dont play much vidya anymore
Saw this in /B/ during my monthly check
Figured it'd be kind of fun in here

There are one or two.
Hoping to add myself to the list, hard as it is.

>A gun in the home is responsible for a vast majority of children killed by firearms
>a vast majority
Um...
>mfw
>>23146580
most 'children' killed by firearms are gangbangers
most guns are kept in domiciles
so I guess it's technically true

Arcade Battle Fags.
Try using the simulator battle.
Since some people on /k/ are Halo fans, I thought i'd ask this.
Realistically, do you think ODST's are feasible in a future military?
Obviously not right now, but at some point in the future.
>you will never drop with your bros with Ride of the Valkyries playing through your pods speakers
>You will never be an ODST
Feels bad man.
>>23091151
I'd totally sign up for ODST if it were a thing.
At "some point"in the future, the lazy Eloi will be living above ground. But underground, there will be cave monsters that use the above ground people for food
>>23091151
technically feasible yes.
practically usable, no. Drop pods are easy to shoot down, hard to maneuver, and blindingly obvious on radar.
Hey /k/, I need some help here.

Long story short, I need to know what round this is: 30mm, 35mm, 40mm, etc. this is probably from ww2 or Korea. But most importantly; is it loaded/ have gunpowder in it? There's no rim nor does it look like there's a real primer.
Will post follow up of stamped bottom

Hey /k/,
I want some advice here. A lot of you love the A-10, I do too. I work on the A-10 now and I'd like to ask your informed opinions about what upgrades we can do for the A-10. Anything and everything is welcome. Help a 62 out.
>>23081895
Another GAU-8 facing rearwards so pilots can continue to fire after they pull out of a strafing run.
>>23081913
I want a GAU-8 attached the already existing gun, so we can fire twice as many rounds
and while we're at it, can we infuse the rounds with crab meat?
>>23081913
>>23081926
Honestly though everyone is so focused on trying to find money and organizing our dwindling resources that no one is even looking at upgrades in the unit. Figured /k/ is the place to look.
