Yeah, precisely my point. A lot of people have no clue whatsoever how biomechanics work - in relation to fighting or anything else - and will instead go with whatever personal misconceptions they've picked up from pop culture and equally clueless friends and family. For instance, a fatty who...

Alright, let's see if I understand this right... Bang: Tifa Lockhart. Athletic, loyal and feminine all in one. And I don't have to hold back when we spar! What's not to like? Banter: SpiderGwen. I haven't really kept up with Marvel since about the early 2000s, so if there's nothing else to...

I intentionally made my post a very basic introduction on bone density, muscle composition and body mass composition for one very simple reason: Any more detail than that inevitably leads to know-nothing-know-it-alls and tribalists coming out of the woodwork to vehemently deny empirical data in...

Could be a Highlander-style Immortal. Keep an eye out for reports of dismembered guns being found in secluded locations, for there can be only one!

Potential VIPs Preston Garvey: While I do expect the whole settlement helping thing to be less annoying in this scenario as it wouldn't be constantly interrupting everything else I'd be doing, I still think it would get old fast. Moira Brown: As much as I like Moira as a character and quest...

The canon gate is far too small for starships; if I recall correctly, the JSDF had to bring a fighter jet through in pieces and then reassemble it on the other side. Though that same gate opened up in Tokyo, so a Covenant Scouting Force going through would appear right in the middle of an urban...

Last game I played was Halo: CE Anniversary Edition (campaign mode). So I guess it depends on where exactly the gate opens up; as long as the Covenant doesn't go full orbital bombardment the JSDF should be able to fight off them off long enough to keep them from just storming through the gate...

True, a lot of demons could probably survive the ring exploding, but unless it happens WAY later than in canon I don't think there'd be enough of them to pose a real threat to incoming Covenant forces. And with the ring destroyed the higher-ups might just decide to Hell with it and close all...

With the initially available forces and then reinforcements the demons probably won't become a real threat to the Covenant force as a whole until... day 4 or so? So yeah, if John-117 manages to go through with all the stuff he did in canon then it won't end up mattering too much. The real...

Yeah, in an open, organized conflict the Covenant forces present could definitely put a stop to the demon incursion if they get to it early enough. Thing is, though, between chasing down the UNSC and trying to explore the Forerunner facilities they likely wouldn't realize it until it's too late...

Initially, maybe two to three dozen portals in semi-strategic locations (and a good number of random ones) across the surface of Installation 04. For the first hour, you can probably count on something like 20-40 demons coming through each portal, after which the flow will slow to a trickle of...

For smaller portals, at least, the answer lies in destroying the associated Gore Nests. Of course every time a Gore Nest gets destroyed it summons a group of demons from Hell, so it's not exactly safe nor necessarily easy, but it is doable. To compensate for aerial bombardments, though, the...

"Oh, there once was a time zone named GMT+1..." Sing it with me! "That held in its sway old Scandinaviaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa~!"

Time for another scenario! This time, it's Halo and Doom (2016). Background The forces of Hell have been made aware of the Halo Array in the Halo universe and they are intrigued. So much so that, when the Pillar of Autumn makes a blind jump to Installation 04 and is followed by a fleet of...

There are... so, so many things to unpack on this subject. One is mass and size: In online discourse you often have two basic "camps". One is composed of those people who believe size and mass don't matter at all, and that a tiny woman can fight evenly with a big, strong man. The other is...

Basically, in relativity as you approach the speed of light time slows down. And if you were hypothetically to go faster than light whilst remaining in a three-dimensional universe time's flow would reverse for you, effectively causing you to travel backwards in time (Pop culture example...

Nah, there's no standard bore sizes in BT. Weapons are classified according to their type (AC, Laser, PPC, etc) and to the "end result". So an AC/2 is an autocannon that causes 2 points of damage per hit, whereas an AC/5 is an autocannon that causes 5 points of damage per hit. Hypothetically the...

The Leo MS is... very weird, from a BattleTech perspective. It's the size of a Heavy or Assault, but has the armor and ranged weaponry of a Light mech (the closest equivalent to the 105mm Rifle would probably be an Ultra AC/2, maybe with special munitions). And yet, if it can close to melee...

Given what's written about them and their associated castes on the Xenopedia, I would have to say that they do not have access to them at all on the ship. Though hypothetically if an outbreak becomes far too large for them to contain I suppose the Leader could send out a distress signal calling...

If you're referring to their plasma casters I was thinking they start with those, though as is typical for Yautja they prefer close combat. If the Leader decides to escalate beyond that, he's likely to just send down one or both of the Blooded, or maybe even come down personally.
