Work in progress. Ursus Warbear. The bears wear armor of meteoric iron. The glyphs carved into it are records of each bear's story, deeds and battles.

The Huntress and her falcons are superb at controlling the enemy, the falcons can harass, distract and attack enemies as well as lend support to allies.

Oathsworn. The Free Company so far. The Penitent. The Blade. The Huntress. One more to go and a boss to paint. Oh and two falcons for the Huntress. My NMM is getting better I think. #minipainting

Still playing County Road Z. Just a crazy good game. Our base is low on food so we're doing a run to a local bar and diner in town. Get in, get stuff, get out, don't die. Easy peasy lemon squeezy. #tabletop

When I saw the drone falling (or what we are supposing is what's left of the drone) I was like, imagine if the molten material some UFOs shed is actually the remains of stuff that got too close and got spacetime slapped so hard it transmuted into elemental slag, like getting hit by a star.

Ben Prime @benjaminprime.bsky.social · 16/12/2024
Yes. Well, in my uninformed opinion on just feel, I have a hunch that if you can get in there with guns. I would want a high rate of fire against targets with unpredictable vector changes anyway and UAP allegedly have the ability to fuck my electrics up so I want to see him with my own eyes.

Ben Prime @benjaminprime.bsky.social · 16/12/2024
Well, they allegedly just sent us a message back... Orb kills drone. So the drones might actually be ours. I don't want an interstellar war rn. We're not ready. youtu.be/VZpTCZ3jy98?...

This is pure speculation on my part. To be clear.

Ben Prime @benjaminprime.bsky.social · 16/12/2024
I would vaguely guess they want data fast. Interceptor jets get there, get the info, get out hopefully before the target decides to bug out. We have to ambush them. Then we figure out what to do using the data. And also because we are sending them some information too... "We're not helpless."
210
Ben Prime @benjaminprime.bsky.social · 16/12/2024
If they see any they won't engage, they'll follow if possible and soak up data. Then come home. I would put money on F-16s being able to corral one of these things and an F-35 could find out what it had for breakfast. We have the tools, we have the talent. The middle management isn't great though.😕

Allegedly but I didn't pursue the sources so could be old footage, but if bases are getting buzzed it stands to reason they'd throw a few birds up jussst for a lil look around, flex a bit.

Here's a take, it doesn't matter if you believe there is a threat or not. What matters is there is a demonstrable blind spot in our defense UAS technology can exploit with impunity. So even if you think THIS flap is not a threat, can we all still agree it could easily have been one? We got LUCKY.😑

Ben Prime @benjaminprime.bsky.social · 16/12/2024
We allegedly have birds in the air now. Saw one video of an F-16 pulling turns and one image of a wolf pack at dusk. If the eggheads assess the intruders are safe to bring down, then lfg fangs out. My patience with these objects dicking around is just about done. #ufosky

Nailed it. Easy to forget, if an advanced NHI is present on this planet, it decides, not us. This is a while other problem in itself, but the main point you make is spot on. It's not up to us.

I think it's probably a waste of time anyway. I don't believe the incoming administration will be any more capable (or willing) when it comes to the UFO problem. I don't think this bunch of dumbass fascists can outwit an 80 year legacy of secrecy that has survived every administration before them

You feel a hand on your shoulder, it's your CO. Behind him is an unknown man in a suit. Your CO looks at you hard "all quiet son?" You glance at the anomalous returns all over your board, the CO's hand squeezes your shoulder hard. You blink. "Yes sir" you reply. The man in the suit leaves...

Ben Prime @benjaminprime.bsky.social · 15/12/2024
I dunno what his personal politics are, but to my mind he is simply appealing to the incoming admin because they will be calling the shots in less than a month. As an ex-spook he knows what tone to use to get them onside. Like it or not, they are who we will have to deal with going forward on this.

That might have worked back in the day, when there was only legacy media, but I suspect those old tactics will not be as effective in the modern era. It wasn't the media that alerted us to this, it was the ordinary people on the ground. Media had to catch up. So did government.

I'd say it's time to kick the tires and light the fires. We look weak. A massive hole in our defense has been exposed and is being exploited. It sends a message to adversaries that they can do this to us. We need to send our own message.

Huh. If it was a social contagion, surely it would be popping up in random places. It would be media driven, so we should be seeing it manifest in completely disconnected regions, not following a logical flight path.

A bunch of arrogant people cherrypicking sightings to "solve" and accusing the populations of entire states of being hysterical morons. Imagine actually being in New Jersey during this and some armchair "investigator" sitting on twitter is gaslighting you that nothing is happening.

Also let us not forget that any dissent by humans that the overlords detect is punished with instant death (iirc). Humanity never gets a choice in their "ascension" either.

Ben Prime @benjaminprime.bsky.social · 14/12/2024
The overmind is a predator that essentially destroys civilisations in order to consume intelligent species. The Overlords engage in a generational social manipulation program to ensure the children of humans are compliant and "suitable" for the Overmind's tastes. Childhood's End is a horror story.
