I'm about 10 miles from the epicenter...


But was in NC at the time. Heard it was pretty wild.

Just a reply to find it easier to watch later, after I get home from work. Without even watching, I'd agree it's only kind-of about Ukraine -- which sure ain't nothing, it's a set of warm water ports and looting opportunities at least -- but not primarily the target on the larger picture.

On closer examination, I think my favorite part is how some of the reactive armor boxes are still inside under the platform. So if anything zips under the platform, through the gap in the chicken wire for the tank's commander and gunner to get inside, and hits the reactive armor, the blowback will fall back onto the tank, possibly setting off any number of other reac-plates like a room full of mousetraps!

Imagine the fun!

Is it wrong that I kind of desperately want this modeled in a game somewhere?
I read somewhere - or saw a video - that suggested it was something like homemade ECM kit to thwart drones  :shocked:

And render all within 200 meters sterile.

I just got back from Conway, AR where I took this image at 135126 CST, about 6 seconds after the beginning of totality.  The red solar flare at the 6 o'clock position was visible with the naked eye throughout the entire eclipse:

There is good news and bad news...

The good news is that Grogheads has received press code from Hooded Horse. The bad news is that our impressions are under strict NDA through 4/12.

We're working with Hooded Horse to set up a code giveaway for one lucky Groghead once the game is released into early access on 4/26. Keep your eyes on the Hooded Horse subforum for details!

Quote from: GDS_Starfury on April 08, 2024, 10:43:55 AMfrom my reading of the subject matter, most harbors keep tugs on the big ships as  routine because there power losses are more common then we would expect.

In my experience, power losses on ships occur "not infrequently".  I was on the USS BLUE RIDGE (LCC-19) when it was without power for about 12 hours in the middle of the Pacific. I"ve seen rudder failures and "dropping the load" for much shorter occasions several times on other ships
