    One must build these in the first Rome: Total War to dump troops on top of "epic stone walls". And I do think they have a scorpion or ballista or two, as I've had troops on the wall get blasted off the wall in clouds of dust - in multiples. They are objects of terror.

    Silly Fin... the armor is to protect the gun. That gun is a national treasure.

    Not many achieve the feat of, "I want to make this 9 ft. long gatling gun fly. Let's build a plane around it!"

    Was playing out in the snow with kids.

    Then my 2 year old son started shouting
    "dad, dad, come look, piggie car! look, piggie car!"

    I went to have a look and it was this

    A car with piggie-nostrils. Someone paid 24.000€ for a 'piggie car'. He thought everyone would be like "wow" but instead everyone's like "it looks like a pig".

    I will keep using that. Piggie cars.

    Why would you use powdered sugar? My parents did baking soda and glitter.

    Armor to protect pilots? What is this nonsense.

    If they wanted armor for themselves they should have joined the army. The armor on the a-10 is is just for the gun.

    Why not 155mm artillery drones? They fly and they have self reloading 155mm artillery guns.

    Since they're drones you could have whole swarms of them... with 155mm guns.

    Also, since you don't need crew in aircraft..

    Nuclear powered drones! Fuck landing! Fuck reloading!

    why not just have a 155mm gun that fires swarms of nuclear drones?

    Umm... the Warthog has to burst fire the GAU-8 because it slows it down. A drone would just flop around.
