I just hate the slow drip of "actually they're low on ammo"..."actually they're short on launchers (which means they've lost many, left unstated)"..."actually they're being jammed" and at no point does anyone go back and think, oh that means what they were saying previously was a lie, they've been lying this whole time.

I like it! I find it soothing when one paragraph of an article requires you to accept a certain set of premises, then the following paragraph requires you to accept a second, conflicting set of premises, without any attempt to reconcile, or even acknowledge the contradictions. Just let it all wash over you like a warm wave on a tropical beach :)

I still think that it has reasonable use niches if it's used to shoot something like 40mm grenades instead. Could be used to saturate and area in seconds against personel and light skinne- ah poo poo I'm turning into a lockmart consultant, kill me before the change is complete I beg of you

Prigozhin's statement makes a lot of sense to me. He's withdrawing from Bakhmut in the hopes that the AI will reoccupy the same hex, which he can then pinch off and encircle a few more times.

Yeah it's great when you can pinpoint the exact area the paradox AI will cram into so you can just whittle them down there a bit at a time.

Very useful when you don't have enough manpower to control the entire front.

i mean would you actually expect a country conducting a war to just argue with each other via social media? And not in a room somewhere in Moscow? If this is real then gently caress i'll never be able to predict anything because i can't handle how the world is ran

Letting non-state actors lead bands of armed men and run their mouths as they jockey for political positions and public favour proves Russia is an imperialist aggressor - the Holy Roman Empire
