Speed is armor

Why waste all the energy on speed when the enemy could just never know you existed at all?

I don't see why we would need armor if we're not fighting. At that point I think we've strayed far enough away from the original purpose.

A fight is a terrible thing to engage in.

A stealth bomber never fights anyone, just kills.

Which s even more terrible in my opinion. either way though, there always a fight regardless of how indirect it may seem.

Effectiveness is key.

You don't die for your country, you make that other poor b*****d die for his; an enemy can't fight what they don't know about, let alone see.


Range is also effective; if your enemy can't hit you, they can't hurt you.

This is in part what makes planes and snipers so effective.

Well it didn't seem too dramatically effective in Vietnam.

That's like, the only part that worked.

Everything else sucked.


Also the objective wasn't to kill all their enemies it was to save people.

That's a lot different.


While you can stop the spread of communism with explosives, democracy is a harder spread with explosives.

You can really only stop things with explosives and fighting, not really, make them into something useful, besides mulch.

war isn't murder it's an achievement of an end. If you played football this should be pretty easy for you, a defensive tackle's job isn't to fight against the line men and and go all out into the block, it's to break the block as quickly as possible in order to render the line man useless at his job. ehh just watch Clay Matthews a little bit the guy is amazing.

War is pretty much just killing people.

Saving people is the issue, which is a lot harder. xp


War is characteristic in it's taking of life.

Else we'd consider Doctor's and everything else "war" which it really isn't technically, even if we sometimes call it that. xp


But war or no war we're talking about what's the best armor.

That would be stealth, of course, then range, then regular armor, than space warping, then speed. : P


Speed only sucks because there's an inherent speed limit of the universe, which means there's only so fast you can go, and so how fast you can dodge, as well.

But of course taking the enemy out before they can take you out in the broad concept is speed, but can be achieved by multiple paths. xp

Armor can work while you're asleep. Speed can't.

Only so far as you can outrun bullets.

Bullets are s**t. Start outrunning lasers and that's all you'll need.

If you can outrun lasers you're pretty much a cheater.

Well, it would be a problem to outrun a laser anyway if you don't know that it's traveling already. You would need particles in the air like smoke or mist, or be capable of seeing the infrared spectrum, unless it was a diode or gas laser. Or if the laser was so powerful it began to ionize the air around it that you'd see plasma.

How true is this claim?

That claim is fairly accurate. When I put on my Puma running shoes and my Usain Bolt armor, I can transform into a literal lightning bolt.

Bullets are s**t. Start outrunning lasers and that's all you'll ******** that, my daily routine is outrunning the light from the sun, weaving in and out of its beams perfectly.

sounds like back problems would arise easily lol.

[Riviera de la Mancha]

What is that even supposed to mean? "Speed is armor"? As in, like, you can move so fast that you are protected from offensive maneuvers? In what context? Bullets? Hand to hand?

Too many questions.

Actually, in practical terms, it would be pretty disastrous to be able to outrun a laser. You'd have to be moving at the speed of light, which would cause major havoc on your surroundings, unless you were out in open space. Something like this could very well happen, but the upside would be that at least you wouldn't be fighting anymore.

The biggest problem was dying during childhood. If you lived trough childhood your chances of getting 50 or 60 years old weren't that bad.
