I have a wishlist of Fallout remake/remaster ideas, but sadly I don’t think any of them would ever be implimented.

My own thing.

Some bombs, like the BLU-107 do exactly that.

Open your folder of shitposts and …ugh… check for millipedes.

Politicians seem very good at misunderstanding things when it suits them.

India and Pakistan still staring at eachother as every country around them disappears.

I’d recommend reading the original Thrawn trilogy. It is set in the original expanded universe continuity, which is no longer part of the Disney canon- but you can still read and enjoy this old version.

In it, Luke is aware he doesn’t have the knowledge of the old masters and is searching for it. Jedi knowledge was treated as more obscure and lost in the old books. In the wider galaxy, there are varying perceptions of Luke given that most people simply know he went into the Death Star II in handcuffs and left with Vader and the Emperor dead. Most people don’t know the details so fill them in with myth.

As for alien races, the movies laid out brief moments which the EU often ran with. There are tons of books that expanded what races are like. Going back to the Thrawn books, the admiral explicitly learns about alien cultures to better understand and destroy them.

I love Battletech, but I understand why it isn’t for everyone. The crunch of of detailing armor hits and internal effects, and keeping track of heat sinks is all the kind of thing that appeals to a specific kind of numbers nerd.

Yes Alpha Strike exists, but it’s relatively new and I think it exists as this weird thing that by stripping out the details takes away the appeal for the loyal crunchy brained people.

Further, the miniatures are really neat, but 28mm (or 32mm, whatever is happening with 40k scale creep these days) scale really allows people to paint and customize characters which is appealing to more people than relatively less characterful mech sculpts.

For video games, Full Spectrum Warrior.

It’s got a unique third person-ish view where the player swaps between different fire teams or special units, and orders them. It looks like a third person shooter but is just a real time ground level tactical game. It’s demanding but fun. It’s the kind of game that Brothers In Arms, old school Ghost Recon, or Doorkickers players would love. I don’t know why nobody really remembers it or why somebody hasn’t made a spiritual successor.

Oh jeez no. Thats ancient stuff. Some of the vaguest ideas carried over, but most those were true doodles.

The Blish Coil was a proposed device for armed US personnel in the event of hostilities on the moon or in space. [3] American war planners at the time were worried about the possibility of the Soviets weaponizing the noosphere. [4] [5] Ultimately no working prototypes were developed. [6]

It’s not the guy, it’s the ACOG setup. The movie went out of its way to mount an ACOG so far forward it would be impossible to see through. With just the hardware in the image, the ACOG could have attached straight to the carry handle.

I’m not even sure where to begin with your numbers. Here’s a picture of an M1 with standard clips.

As I stared up at that hairy, yellow drumstick I knew I needed a shitpost.

FLCs are good. I presume you adjusted the triangles of backstraps to properly distribute the weight. A lot of people who complain about FLCs don’t do that.

I’m not a superfan of putting IFAKs on the back. I know the military rote answer is that the IFAK is for somebody else to use on you, but that’s just, eh. I’ve never liked a plan relying on the kindness of strangers. Especially when you don’t have friends, trying under pressure to work with it off the back is rough. I’d at least have an in-addition smaller kit on the vest that contains some staged occlusive dressings and a compression wrap. I’m a big medical gear person so I carry aid kits in my car and day to day bags, because it doesn’t need to be gunshots for somebody to need aid. I keep it organized and within what I’m realistically skilled to use. I’d recommend skills to actually use what you’ve got with training that gives you feedback rather than just self learning from YouTube, but unfortunately I can’t point you to a good direction. If you pack more medical items stashed around and ever use them for trauma, you’ll go through more than you expect, so don’t ever think you’re adding too much. For GSW everybody packs tourniquets because they’re like, cool I guess but pack chest seals. Chest seals are the tourniquets of the torso. You can buy pre-vented new these days which is really great, especially if you don’t know how to use a decompression needle (do not be like some randos I’ve seen who started carrying a needle because “Its cool I watched a YouTube video on it bro how hard can it be?”)

Those universal Velcro holsters are kinda poo. A cheap alternative are the old Tactical Tailor Universal holsters with the thumb break. Not as good as modern bespoke tactical stuff but it depends on your budget. My very favorite holster is an Orpaz which has a thumb push plastic button for releasing positive lock which is great.

I’m not a fan of hanging canteens so far back. If you can’t fit them on the side panels, I’d ditch them in favor of a hydration pack. I like canteens but the placement here interferes with a pack, and I personally find them awkward there overall. Plus if it’s a scalable kit you may have times where you don’t want water hanging off it.

Not a fan of the big admin pouch hanging off the right side chest. I find FLCs hang better when you keep as much gear as possible low, and sometimes it can be a process to figure what you really need to have ready on a vest. Going back the hydration pouch, if you get one with a couple of built in pouches you could move the contents of the admin pouch off the chest to there.

A full sized bayonet is certainly a choice. In my experience a smaller actual utility knife is much more useful. I picked up a SEALPup on a whim uhhh…a long time ago and it has been through a lot without letting me down.

I really think the USGI leg extender panel is a slept on alternative to a full drop leg panel. Assuming you do stick with the dropleg. Some people rail against them but they can be alright so long as they sit high enough. You may want to look into duty drop belt adaptors though, as an alternative that allows the slight drop off the belt but without a need for a panel or leg straps.

I’d put electrical tape over all the rolled up straps, those elastic keepers degrade or slip over time.

Light sources are good. In all my off body aid kits I have lights on top of everything else inside the bag, often a headlamp for hands off light. In FAKs I have those Nite Ize battery powered “chemlites”.

Similar to the 1997 point-n-click Blade Runner game. The rights to all the aspects of that movie were such a mess that the developers decided not to use any footage or audio from the game because they honestly couldn’t figure out who owned what, and made it follow a new main character which was an obvious “Not-Deckard” who was chasing replicants in a similar but ever so changed variation on the plot of the movie.
