  3. koosh138 true, but those advantages in tech would only force the Romans to accept a near-phyrric victory imo. It would be gory as fuck on the field.

  5. Koen Buurman because swear words are often referring to such taboos and name calling aims to paint the targeted as unclean or otherwise weak or tainted.

  6. This makes me wonder, how common were sewers that were not inhereted from the Romans in medieval cities. I know of one, Visby, but I assume there has to be more?

  7.  @josephang9927  it was a message that was tailored to make a segment of people very rich by design as an auto-recruiting pyramid scheme through playing on the gullibility of the desperate and ignorant. No more, no less.

  8.  @StratosTitan  not really. It's sole purpose is to allow corporations to circumvent democratic national governments, worker protection laws, environment protection laws etc. through lobbyism and bribes.

  9. Trajan, with a few very noticable exceptions such as Visby on Gotland (Hanseatic semi-sovereign city built on lime stone cliffs that provided natural springs and both surface and under ground creeks that were diverted to provide running fresh water indoors as well as self-cleansing sewers beneath indoor privies) and some parts of Paris (enjoying the parts of Roman aqueducts and sewers that had not yet been allowed to deteriorate beyond use.

  11. sean m this has nothing to do with liberals and everything to do with google using their content creator community as guinnea pigs for their AI/macine learning project and that some fuckface high up the corporate ladder decided it would be a good Idea to have their AI embryo learn by randomly attacking and learn from the feedback after manual reviews instead ofthe sensible way of starting out with everything allowed until reported and only demonetizing/shutting down specific content after manual review of each report flag. The first groups of creators to be demonetized/suspended were trans people and other lgbtq-related channels.

  13.  @mattpotter8725  false. The only good parts of any religious text including the bible, are the humanitarian socialist ideas that are used to cover up and make the incurably rotten and abusive core mechanics palatable to the gullible and desperate victims.

  15.  @alephkasai9384  well, for one, the caliber isn't really the bullet diameter at all, it's the bore diameter. Second, iirc, the US standard is measuring that diameter from the depth of the rifling groove while European gun makers measure that diameter from the main surfaces between the rifling grooves... And the bullet has to be fractionally wider to provide a gas tight seal and engage with the rifling. And the there's shotguns where the gauge is the number of full bore round balls that can be cast from an imperial pound of lead...

  16. I'd say the Romans would start out from the Red Sea after subjugating the Ptolemeian egypt and follow the coast of the Arabian peninsula, cross to india and then follow the coast around to the south china sea the same path as the first human settlers probably reached Japan in the first place, avoiding the murderous Jungles of modern day Myanmar, Cabodia and Vietnam as much as humanly possible, but stopping to replenish losses of both troops lost to skirmishes, weather, accidents and disease along with ships lost to weather and accidents of unknown waters many times along the way, so that the legions that might arrive on the Japanese islands would be equipped and trained in Roman fasion, speaking roman Latin mixed with slang of any number of asian languages and composed of Legionaries more of Asian than European lineage.

  20. Yeah, on grass, you'd feel the horses through your own feet before you heard the footfalls... And possibly even have a hard time maintaining secure footing due to vibrations. At least on dewy morning grass trodden into mud by your own regiment deploying into that formation.

  21. Gunpowder, industrial revolution and mass conscription happened.

  26. I Don't Know as long as you are allowed to stretch your legs a bit by marching a few meters in either direction now and then it isn't that hard. The gard bit about guard duty is to stay as alert as possible until relieved. To me, the Italian navy guard duty shifts seem very long. During my conscript service in the Swedish mechanized infantry, we never had any guard shift longer than two hours, day or night. During field exercises, guard duty were most often one hour sentry duty in a foxhole followed by one hour fire watch in the 12-man tent rotated so that everyone got both early, middle and late shifts during the week-long exercises. Drivers exempted from the rotation as they had to be provided with 8h unbroken rest( including 6h unbroken sleep) for every 24h cycle. And my regiment had a dedicated motorised infantry company for guarding the base at all times.

  27. Erwin Rommel nope, you need to work on your blitz timing...

  28. X Infinity nope, a rifle with bayonet handles very differently to a spear, it is far less agile due to mass distribution and rifle design requirements that can't be changed without compromising ithe rifles function as a firearm.

  29. If shit hits the fan, I'll bring a gladius as a sidearm even in this day as it's light, lacks a crossguard that might get stuck on magasine pouches or other parts of the webbing and the most likely situation when I'd have to use it would be inside a building or other tight spaces where a 1.1m rifle with just 20rnd mags might not be possible to swing around to an unexpected direction to face a melee attack.

  30. Argyris Pouggouras agreed, which makes modern police dogs morally questionable. The dogs used in the defence force militia I am a part of is used exclusively as sensors to detect human prescense near an objective to be searched and/or defended aswell as scanning the camp perimeter when/where we can't use tripwire alarm systems. The dogs and their handlers are pulled out asap at the first sign of hostile presense as they are only armed with pistols for selfe defence anyway. Even the batallion medics and MC orderlies are more heavily armed. The most live action those dogs get is when the civilian authorities call for volounteers to look for missing people, such as old people with dementia, lost tourists etc. and I hope neither they nor myself has to face the situations we train for.

  31. Glen Collins really? now I could have seen sense in classifying shields as street weapons, but not with banning any kind of armour that's not bullet proof.

  32. Nerf Bullets Afaik, if that law is even a thing, it's not present in any of the Nordic countries anyway.

  33. Glen Collins Carrying a weapon without a weapon specific carry-license in Sweden is illegal, but armour isn't classed as weapons. (Any knives of 9cm blade or more Counts as weapons, and any other implement without a harmless primary purpose. Exception is when the knife is obviously a tool of trade for instance if worn on the tool belt of a builder on lunch) Also, Hunters and Sports shooters have special rules for transporting their weapons between hunting grounds/shooting gallery and the regulated weapon's locker of their home. And reenactors/martial artists have rules for how to transport their bladed weapons between home and events/training locations but no laws for storage. At the same time, Sporting weapons can be any kind of weapon used in competitive sports, including select fire combat rifles and automatic-only submachineguns (Any firearm using gas-sealed one piece ammunition or manufactured later than 1870 does however require a licencse, and so does crossbows over a certain draw weight)

  34. Glen Collins Well, also, our self defence laws only state that any violence utilised in self defence can't be undefensively disproportionate and has to be applied under immediate threat or ongoing attack. And the same allowances is made for intercepting attacks on a third party. Eg, if you as a hunter come home after a hunt and while unpacking see someone with a knife chasing someone out of a house, you are perfectly within legal rights  to unpack, load and shoot the attacker as long as the attacker keeps up the chase, but if the attacker spots you taking aim, stops and throws away the knife or flee, you have to hold the shot as the immediate threat has passed.

  36. Joshua Madoc And I want to do the same kind of crossover but adding my Word Bearer chaos marine profile from "Space Marine" (WH40k fps) as my player character. Starting out in raptor (jump pack melee with Stuka-like "you're so fucked I've got a chain axe with your name on it sirens") or havoc (heavy weapon support, heavy bolter, lascannon, autocannon or plasma cannon) configuration...

  43.  @13thcentury  more like: rusted armor was for the soon-to-be-dead pesant militia/levvies... eg: battle of Visby: Local free farmer militia vs. Battle hardened German mercenaries and Danish royal guard elite... (Hint: There were only insignificant casualties in the Danish Kings army but several mass graves has been excavated)

  49. As the roman I would attempt to use the weight and metal edge of the scutum to attack the knights legs with the hope of injuring knees or shins to create a mobility advantage.

  50. That would probably result in a Roman phyrric victory through numerical superiority despite Norman tactical and technological advantages.
