I would be quite interested in participating in one of these "Lessons". They seem intriguing.

 

True. I'm not so good at explaining things like that myself' date=' though I do try. I'm better at acutally doing it, and best with actual tactics, rather than the overall strategy. Generally speaking, real life tactics are done at a split-second, with little or no time to plan.

You can't really organize an entire army in a split second. =/ It requires pre-planning depending on the location of the opposing army, terrain, and other variables in large and small scale combat to use your force to the best of it's potential. But yes, soldiers do need to take initiative and try to seize what they see as the tactical advantage as best they could.

That makes 2 of us.........

Of course. I will quite look forward to it.

[Sploda]

I'll get everything ready tomorrow.

 

I'm currently preparing to play the Starcraft II beta. Thus I will be occupied most of the night.

Heheh.... Le Creature...

 

Also... how is Creator that hard to remember? There's a YGO card named that XD

@Ninjew and Akuma

Obviously you don't know what your talking about.

 

Nanites are meant for repairing the body, not breaking things down. Thus both of you are wrong and don't know what your talking about.

 

@DL

Drop it or else.

 

@BB

I'll be getting that thread set up later (around 6-7 my time) today.

[Davok]

I will quite look forward to it. I myself am greatly interested in playing Starcraft, and I might go and get the Battle Chest sometime this week.

[DL]

*drops subject on the floor, watching it shatter*

 

There goes THAT subject.

 

Well, I just got through half the 2nd episode of CG! :D

[Christian Exodia]

LOL.

 

So, any new suspec-I, er, subject?

[Sploda]

@BB

The beta is awesome, I can't wait to get the finished product on June 2nd!

Thats' strategic. I'm talking tactics, as in making sure that you and your allies are positioned at 6 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions (or equivalent) to fire from two directions and maximize the firepower you can use (assuming you're fighthing in close quarters, and you can't squeeze all of your troops into a single location), cutting off a potential escape, while preventing friendly fire (as would be the case if positioned at 6 o'clock and 12 o'clock, for example). Tactics is like playing Halo. Strategy is like playing Civilization III.

They can do both. It's the same process, really, just reversed. Although the movie itsel fis stupid, Path of Destruction on the Syfy Channel proves my point. If you think about them logically, you'll agree.

[Sploda]

@Akuma

I think your mixing nanites with nanobots.

 

nanites are injected into someone to rebuild and regenerate them. nanobots are preprogramed to either rebuild or to destroy.

[Christian Exodia]

What would happen if there was a such thing as a combo of Nanites & Nanobots?

[Sploda]

It can't happen. Nanobots are similar to nanites except that they are preprogrammed and can repair or destroy. Nanites can only repair. Trying to fuse the two is like trying to fuse Chuck Norris and Mr. T.

[deathghost101]

that would be the end of the world.

[Davok]

I'm pretty sure it would be pointless, since nanobots can already both destroy and repair.

 

Also, Akuma, apparently the definition of military tactics is "the art of organizing an army". Strategy is a plan of action designed to achieve a particular goal. So your example will be a bit reversed, actually. Strategy and Tactics should always walk hand in hand together, however, if you wish to succeed against an opponent.

Actually in the movie G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra [or w/e] it says Nanites can destroy or repair.

[Davok]

Actually, it will probably end up with nanites just being another nanobots. xD

[DL]

It can't happen. Nanobots are similar to nanites except that they are preprogrammed and can repair or destroy. Nanites can only repair. Trying to fuse the two is like trying to fuse Chuck Norris and Mr. T.

 

It would be a Nanibot.

 

Nanny Bot

 

So a maid.

 

Am I close? :D

[deathghost101]

I don't think it would work that way..........

[DL]

Why not?

 

It makes perfect sense! D:

[deathghost101]

I'll stop myself here......I don't want to turn this into some sort of arguement.....

[DL]

I like debates.

 

I can debate why Nanobot+Nanite = Nanny Bot

 

You can debate why Chuck Norris + 42 =/= Pi
