You drop them on divisions spread out on thousands of km of frontline

Big brain strategy

I imagine a war with Russia could be exhausting

No shit

Yeah

Well they were saying it would be easy

So I'm saying the other side here

We didn't mention Japan and that. Just said it would be easy

The Soviets outnumbered the Western Allies roughly 2 to 1 at the end of the war in Europe

aw no embed

@Flavius Stilicho Yellow Turbans?

you realize that armies arent perfectly spread on a front dont you?

>U.S. planned

Ah no you just have 2000 tanks concentrated in an area conveniently the size of Hiroshima

Makes perfect sense

kursk?

This disgusting clickbaity wording

how is it clickbaity

Making it sound like they were really going to

Ah yea Kursk, a battle which happened on a 100km wide front

it was just talking about the existing strategy

and supply lines

@Estavor.eldritch because if japan didnt surrender they were going to

No but if they say they planned to rather than

Alright fine whatever

because they did plan to

i dont know what youre hung up on lol

Okay fine fine

Wasn’t Japan going to surrender earlier if Hirohito stayed in power?

Not worth arguing I concede don't care not gonna think about it

but anyways

you use the nukes to obliterate most anything you want

veen with a small radius theyre tremendously useful

blow up shit tons of enemy factories in one go

destroy their entire supply chain
