    We are getting all the classics back. We started with trenches and now we are getting the dragoons. What next?

      Well, we already have battle wizards with the drones as well, so I guess the next part is clerics and necromancers

        Oh the clerics were there way back during Euromaidan https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Euromaidan’s_priest_on_duty_(11242961723).jpg

      Hopefully not chemical weapons. I know Russia has used CS gas on the battlefield and legally that is “chemical warfare” but let’s not pretend that’s on the same level as fucking Sarin.

    I thought I read an article stating that the Russians tried motorcycles and that it didn’t go so well for them. I take it the Ukrainians feel they have a better methodology using motorcycles?

      The article says the Ukrainians received training so that’s one difference.

      Meat wave motorcycle assault is still a meat wave assault… It’s not the tool, it’s how you use it

        Exactly this. The armoured russian meat wave that went for Kyiv in 2022 ended like the rest of their meat waves. All the armour in the world still doesn’t help much when your tactic is to throw a bunch of unsupported people through exposed terrain that’s under complete fire control.
