Pretty remarkable stat he gives in that article:

88% of casualties are from artillery.

10% are from snipers.

2% are from ordinary gunfire.

I already gave $100, which is how I got this completely ridiculous avatar.

As am I. $200 if they can send us reports/images of kills.
Yes, I’m a ghoul. And yes, I’m serious.

I’d add another c note if we engraved CJK5H on the lower receiver.

Export issues.

I know a guy.

I can get it coated if we can get it out of the country. I shoot with a ukranian guy here in austin and he could help probably.

I can get it coated.

We need 11k.

Aren’t they missing an animal? Could have sworn there was a goat or beaver or some type of varmint that killed a Russian either right before or after the shark.

I think you’re right, and it was after the shark. It’s on this thread god knows how many pages back

Thanks! I hope the $100 I just spent ends up in some orc skulls.

Are we talking a Barrett 107a1 in 50 caliber or something else? I know the daughter of the owner of KDF guns in Sequin and they do custom work mainly with imported German firearms (originally Kleingunther). Since she went to UT, I would think I could get a discount on the $11K estimate.

Worth reading the 3 screenshots

 

 

Here is a summary from this guy’s text. Key reasons why, according to him, RU forces are unsuccessful in Bakhmut:

 

- Overcrowding of units on the frontline - too many units crammed into a small area made organizing a proper defense difficult. The more units command pushed in, the worse the chances of stable defense became.

 

- Lack of rotation and rest for units - some units had been stationed there for months, losing 2/3 of their personnel and equipment. New arriving units had no time to dig in or build defenses before coming under fire. 

 

- Poor morale and lack of will to fight - many units are simply morally suppressed and waiting for their turn to retreat. Panic sets in easily and many flee at the first sign of heavy shelling rather than stand their ground.

 

- Poor middle management - some commanders act inadequately, failing to inspect positions or lead their men. When crisis hits, junior officers have to take charge.

 

- Lack of coordination and communication - units with different communication systems crammed together, artillery support not coordinated properly, commanders out of touch with situations on the ground.

 

- Failure to utilize resources - heaps of unused equipment left lying around, units unwilling to dig trenches or set up defenses even when means are available.

 

- Poor training and preparation of mobilized troops - some mobilized reservists did not even have basic first aid training or kits after months of supposed training.

If they have taken Staromaiorske (and adjacent Urozhaine) then, the tiny town of Zavitne only remains between them and Staromlynivksa

Staromlynivska opens the road to Mariupol

more context. 

Sure is a lot of public talk about the majority of their force being committed in the south in the near future. It’s one thing to say they’re already fully engaged in those areas, but it’s entirely different to say it’ll be happening over the next few weeks. I’ll be shocked if that’s where they actually attack.

Turkey needs to sack up and allow NATO ships to escort the Ukraine grain carriers from Odesa in & out of the Black Sea.

Screw the nutless UN and Russia’s veto. This is a major world wide food supply concern.

I don't believe that NATO wants to do anything that might put them in a potential direct confrontation with Russia. That's why they're talking about exporting grain via other ports outside Ukraine.

Also they've put enough missiles into the Odesa elevators this week that it's going to be a real bitch loading out of them for awhile.

Then give the Ukes the means to kill the launch source of those missiles.

I mean, Turkey could have done it themselves as opposed to NATO and didn't. SO fuck them. And yeah, give them ATACMs
