They're basically saying they're ready to beat the US military in 2017 with the same army that couldn't beat the US military in 1950.

Edit: hmmm, not sure if it's my plugins screwing this up or what, but in case you can't watch Gurbanguly gooning it up, here's the article with video.

That guy legitimately has better delivery than Seagal. And at this point better martial arts moves.

Is that weird sing-songy style of speaking they use common in South Korea too or is it something specific to North Korea?

Any idea why the North Koreans started doing that? Were they mimicing someone else (Chinese communists?) or did they come up with it on their own?

I don't think they have enough cars to have even considered the concept of a road guard.

I don't know if we have a Vietnam thread but I am looking for decent quality maps of the first hours/days of the Tet Offensive specifically in the city of Hue.

Mike-o posted:MODS It had a badass soundtrack, but the actual gameplay was kinda poo poo. Bad helicopter flight mechanics. Red "bad guy" team won all the time. Better infantry guns, more infantry on hand for every battle that actually involved infantry vs infantry... Wait, maybe it was very realistic...

Yeah it's a top down view of the Hue City map from Rising Storm 2: Vietnam. The map is supposedly pretty accurate when compared to the source pictures they used but I imagine they made some changes to the overall layout of things for gameplay purposes. It's probably an ok visualization if you're just looking for personal curiosity but I wouldn't use it for anything academic obviously!

I am using it for a roleplaying game as source material for the players, I am hoping to find a series of maps that show things like enemy positions/attacks with arrows and all that

I was going to list all the things I hate about this, but I realized it just keep on giving and is best presented without commentary. (Pardon the lovely cellphone pic, I didn't have a lot of time to react once I realized what I was staring at)
