One of my favorite lines of all fiction is "a mobile mech with enough firepower to destroy or severely damage another mech of the same weight class or lower" Because good enough is often perfect.

[@imjang2430]

Uh... I don't really understand, but i agree 😄👍

[@HalIOfFamer]

@@imjang2430 you should. In fact, you are missing out. Lemme point you to the channel of "black pants legion" specifically to the video about the Warhammer (not to be confused with the Warhammer fictional universe)

[@jgkitarel]

Perfect is the enemy of good enough. Something our militaries have learned the hard way. And for all that even we like to rag on our own military spending in the States, the equipment isn't designed to be some kind of perfect, it's designed to be good enough to take down what the other side claims to have. It's not our fault that they were lying about their capabilities and we took it at face value. If anything, we took the capabilities of those systems to be slightly better than they were claimed to be, because that's what we would do.

[@TechnoMageB5]

Vs. The Krids: First, Wolfpack attacks; Then, guerrilla tactics; Then, strategic sacrifices and stealth to return the favor of world annihilation at over double their rate. All run on Linux. 🤣 All made faster and cheaper than the enemy, though not better - but implemented better. Superior economic resource management. Love it.

[@TechnoMageB5]

The humans accepted it as a challenge. Remember: "We can do it cheaper." When that is the operating basis of the group you are fighting, be very careful of the tactics you select against them, as they will likely be reflected back on you _more._

[@cheezmonta]

This reminds me of a true story from WW2. After D-day, a division of German forces captured a supply convoy and found chocolate cake, a whole truck of it. It was at that moment the commanders knew the war was lost. Their logistics couldn't supply enough rations or bullets only a few hundred miles to the front. While America had the leeway to send luxuries like fresh baked goods to the front.

[@giarnovanzeijl399]

Strategy may win the battle, but logistics wins the war.

[@jgkitarel]

Yup. More armies, nations, and empires have been defeated due to their logistics failing. And that failing of logistics inevitably tended to lead to those decisive battles that cost them the war.

[@anarchyandempires5452]

Vindicators 93 was the best in the series and I will fight anyone who disagrees with me!!!!! And no I don't care how good "After school 3" was, it's not part of the vindicators Series, that was a cinematic adaptation of a book expansion to a Hentai videogame based on a fanfiction! Saying that it's part of the series is as stupid as saying that Twilight is part of the Harry Potter franchise!

[@j.p.vanbolhuis8678]

But lets be honest the Vindicator series is unrealistic as clearly evidenced by the small group tactics shown in CoD Galactic Warfare. Ballistic arc weaponry has severe advantages to line of sight only. (as shown by use of the plasma grenades, either thrown, or fired and ricochetted around corners). Vindicators completely loses sight of this elemental fact.

hey guy's I'm new to the channel, could someone clarify how these episodes are ordered. I started on 1498 from about 8 months ago do I just keep moving up by year or by episodes labled "Humans are Space Orcs " or is all of this just part of the "first contact" playlist series and every story in that playlist is part of the main story.

[@Cyrission]

I honestly have no idea it doesn't matter either since there is no order unless it says (part )

[@anathardayaldar]

Take those numbers as a reference system and not a sequence. There is no assumed order to them unless stated otherwise.

[@giarnovanzeijl399]

The numbers are upload order. Unless it specifically states it's part of a series they say nothing except what order agro made em.

[@chrisdufresne9359]

Humans are space orcs is the main way to recognize these episodes. They go up numerically and he has entire Playlists based around the numbers. For example, 1 to 100 is its own Playlist. 101 to 200 and so on.
