If the Mongols can kill that many in less than a century, what are the over and under on the 6 million with modern tech?

the IRL assassins were just a bunch of weed smoking islamic mystics
y'know, the Hashanshin that even **Salah al dihn** couldn't defeat?

@Kinky Kitsune (Coomer) And? They were still effective

but not as epic as in the games
turns out sneaky cunts can be quite effective at unaware targets
@Kinky Kitsune (Coomer) again, **Salah al dihn,** one of the greatest warrior-kings in history (a worthy opponent to King Richard the Lionheart) couldn't break the Hashanshin
Think about it, what's harder to fight? A stationary ruler that you can map his movement easily, or a wandering horde of autonomous units of savage steppe warriors on horseback?
a main weakness of steppe hordes was sieges
The Hashanshin had a de-facto state made up of mountain fortresses like Alamut
until the mongols....
> a main weakness of steppe hordes was sieges
@Kinky Kitsune (Coomer) not after they got Chinese siege engines...
@Thundermark exactly
Yes, *that* Alamut
The horde is very centralized in command but military tactic is autonomously controlled by unit leaders allowing for far more flexible maneuvers
nah they must have similar numbers to China
this makes China seem suspicious
and the fact that the mongols had very skilled and talented leaders
the horde consists of only 100 thousand horsemen btw
The Hashanshin's biggest mistake was biting off more than they could chew & trying to take out Halagu Khan (they failed, were destroyed for their impudence, & years later, Halagu shat himself to death in China)
lol
And yeah Mongols have a long memory, they never let slights go.

why
Because cuck
The battle of Hogwarts would be different if an American wizard was present.
