If i thought twice in one idea i wouldnt have the same idea

@al3xanderthegr8

People say that carriers are obsolete because:

Hypersonic missiles are getting increasingly more powerful, to the point where it isn’t possible or economical to defend a carrier. Not only that, hypersonic missiles might have a longer range than carrier aircraft in the future (based on my own research, the F-35 still has a longer combat radius than most current missiles, though that’s because the Zicron doesn’t exist).

Submarines are getting quieter, to the point where they can easily destroy carriers.

Carriers are too big of a target. Some people use this argument and extend it to all surface ships.

If you’re curious, I personally disagree that these developments are too big of a problem, making them obsolete. Just my opinion.

People say tanks are obsolete because:

Tanks are easier to be targeted by anti-tank missiles, which have longer range than tanks.

Tanks are too expensive.

Aircraft have gotten more powerful to the point where they can replace the role of tanks.

Keep in mind my summary might be wrong, this is just what it seems reading some articles saying they’re obsolete.

So sad. :(

ISIS & ALLIES
A Modern Take On A Classic Board Game!

Extremists threaten the globe!
Lead the coalition forces of Iraq, Syria, the Peshmerga, and Hezbollah into battle!
Or rally foreign fighters to join the cause of Islamic State!
As the coalition, order US airstrikes.
As ISIS, win the war on the internet to radicalize the West.

Change the course of history… as it’s being made!

What do think? It could happen, right?

Anything can translate into a board game, but sometimes you just gotta wait a few years while things blow over, and this idea might be one of those times.

Obviously, in real life this would have to be done way after the events, to avoid it being called pro-ISIS or offending ISIS or anything. It’s one thing to make board games featuring Nazis or Soviets, another to make one featuring terrorist groups. You’d have to do it carefully.

Will it be made? Probably not. Could it? Yes.

I’m not censoring anything for those douche bags…both Daesh or the PC crowd. F*ck em!

Don’t worry though, it won’t be long before US combat soldiers find their way back over there going “weapons free”. If that happens, the game wouldn’t be terribly interesting since it would be unbalanced and a seperate game dedicated to counter insurgency and wide area security probably wouldn’t sell too well either.

"she’s Married?!?!  Did i just s**t myself?!?!

Speaking of Custer
Didja’ hear the one about:

a wealthy history buff commissions a painting
“i want Custer’s last thoughts on the canvas.  Paint it just like you were there, reading Custer’s mind”

Several weeks later, the painting is brought before the buyer.  He is shocked to see a number of naked native people in various very sexual poses.  In the middle is a large fish with a halo over its’ head.
“what the hell is this?” the history buff asked?
“well, it’s like you asked - you wanted Custer’s last thoughts!  I imagined it was something like:
holy mackeral - where did all of these f**king indians come from?”

LOL

Love it CC!

pigeon or not, its finger-lickin’ good!

@El:

Here’s a question…If below par is good why do most people mean bad or poorly when they say, “I’m feeling under/below par?”

Par simply means what the standard. If Par for the course is 72 then 72 strokes is the standard # of strokes needed to finnish the course. If you shoot under par you are doing well.

On the contrary if you are feeling under par, you are feeling worse than standard or normal, thus bad. :)

I was hoping this could be yanny’s next project. :grin: I like playing, but I don’t have time for Setting up tournies or GMing.
