Blowing Up The Moon to Save Christmas | Arma 3

The Ignis Christmas Cinematic Universe continues to grow more and more unhinged. I'm entirely unsurprised that the GM was drunk for this and frankly I'm surprised that this isn't a regular occurrence XD I wanted to keep count of the number of vehicle explosions, but I lost track around 25... That is far and away the most vehicles I've ever seen violently disassemble themselves in a ball of fire for no discernable reason XD

[@JoseHernandez-xv2bt]

As I’ve said in the last Christmas video, since Ignis is basically a chaotic SCP at this point, the whole point of Christmas, that being a time of giving and being with friends & family, is replaced with watching your friends being vaporized, physics being non existent l, and Santa committing too many banzis on the enemy while drunk

[@vibechecker3168]

With how unhinged these Christmas episodes are getting the next one is going to be like “so the Elves have unionised and revolted against Santas will. So he has hired Blackwater PMC/ The Pinkertons to crush the uprising. Many little elves will be shot without trial."

[@hp1221WTF]

Next Christmas OP : So a PMC by the name of Ignis 1.0 killed santa but then revived them from hell with the help of a christmas wizard, who then turned on them, so they had to go to the moon and finish the job. Unfortunely, all of Ignis 1.0 men and their assests were lost on the "Great Moon Cracking" caused by the otherwordly patron of the christmas wizard. Now it is up to future santa, who using his temporal and dimensional powers has formed their own millitia from alterantive members of Ignis 1.0 and formed Ignis 2.0. Together they will venture into the edges of the universe and put to an end the reign of terror that the patron has instilled on all the universe. Will they suceeed? Will satan and the murder reindeers make a comback? Will Rubix finally stop getting his squadmates killed? We will find out, not late enough.

[@gruntmasterbroadcast]

Clang is pleased with the sacrifice of the Moon... He would have been more pleased if the moon was used as a starship getting slingshotted into the North Pole but he'll take what he can get.

Clang is eternal and omnipresent. You can never escape it. It will always find you when you least expect it, and if you lack the rotors and pistons to sacrifice, not even god is saving you, because god is Clang.

[@niknaktom]

I cannot express how much joy these videos bring me. I end up wheezing with laughter everytime. From the general crazy of everything going on, to the great editing. Little bits like the WWF Sound clip at 12:44 with the jeeps. Its 10/10 content every time

I want to thank you for the great content. I found your channel right before basic training and after it ended I stayed up way too many nights watching your videos. It helped me get through difficult times and relax a little. I have been waiting for this episode for several months and, as usual, you did not disappoint the viewers in providing great entertainment. I hope that one day I will be able to play with you and I want to wish you a wonderful and Merry Christmas
