Also she isn't like Vader or Maul where they go round killing everyone she is more about manipulating people and events though as a first RP it would be more about her learning about the world as she only knows about The Imperium right now.

KaiserMelech Mikhail Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) People REALLY need to learn how much stuff costs. Reeki, if you're selling tanks and artillery pieces at the same price as a sedan, and your modern assault rifles at the same price as an old Mosin on the internet (yes, I've been looking) either your company hates money or the things are made of paper mache.

It would be fully canon, she has no force powers or anything like the sort she is just a very skilled woman who has military training but prefers to manipulate her enemies rather than fight them head on but as I said I am more looking for a RP to introduce her and I wouldn't care at all if there was no fighting conflict. To be honest I just wish to join an RP with her and practice my writing at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 1947, a T-54 cost [url="http://www.alternatewars.com/BBOW/Tanks/Russian_T-54.htm"]326,000 Rubles[/url]. Adjusted for inflation, that's equivalent to to [url="http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=326%2C000+1947+Rubles+in+2010+US+dollars"]19.88 million 2010 US dollars[/url] (15.22 million euros), or several times more than an Abrams. No doubt the tank could be made for much cheaper with modern manufacturing, but it would still cost much more than 40,000 euros. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Well, I think against modern AT-weaponry, it will protect like a Sedan. Though, I decided not to buy them, not because of the price, but rather because its combat value against other tanks and AT-weapons isn't much as I perceived it. It also had not the best AA and I doubted its capability to handle something like a Dassault Rafale. In the end, my country may not be the best suited for tank warfare.

Captain Enema Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Doubt a T-54 would give the same protection as a Toyota Camry. I suspect the average joe would be safer in a Toyota than any clunky piece of junk Wilding's nation produces. For that matter, I'm going to make a very informed statement based upon my mastery of "Because I said so" that a person would be safer riding a moped into battle than a T-54.
