Forum Overview :: Operation: Hammer Time

Re: Death by smearing. by t0ny 04/11/2003, 3:04pm PDT Well if you think about it, the only reason they added explosives was to do 'splash damage' in case your biplane missed the target by just a bit, as well as the fact that it was easier to take a 20-lb explosive than a 200-lb anvil. Now that we have the ability to drop munitions weighing more than a ton, and have them strike with pin-point accuracy, it seems to make sense. Your goal is to disable the target, not create war-footage special effects. A tank with a 1000-lb concrete block up its ass is just as dead as one with a 1000-lb explosive. This reminds me of Mass Drivers they use in science fiction, where you are basically slinging high-speed asteroids at the target. Consider a bullet- nobody is trying to sell explosive bullets to the police (although it WOULD probably cause "Cops" to get much higher ratings. Gibs are always cool, as long as they arent "Gibbs". But gibs of Gibbs are the best!).
