Ukrainian 1st Mot Inf Div UGF

Part of VII Army Corps UGF

(This is inspired by Battle Order's video on the experimental Soviet Army light infantry division of 1987 which was trained and formed in Ukraine.)

Raised as part of Westernization and expansion of the UGF in 2023-24, the 1st Mot Inf Div of VII Corps/OC North - one of a number of new divisions being activated along the revival of historic units - will soon be added with its planned light cavalry regiment to its ORBAT later due to NATO and Polish and US influence as part of the force's efforts to defend the nation. As of present just one armored cavalry element is present - the armored cav kurin assigned with the 1st Light Armored BCT.

It is organized into three motorized brigades, one mechanized brigade, one light armored brigade, one field artillery brigade, one air defense artillery brigade, a combat engineer regiment, an army aviation regiment using Western helicopters, support elements, a depot regiment and directly reporting formations including one rifle (Jaeger) infantry regiment and one tank destroyer regiment.

Its motorized brigades are armed with Novators, Humvees and JLTVs alongside a company each of truck-mounted infantry with its artillery battalions armed with the Humvee Hawkeye - an experimental SPG mounted on Humvee chassis, and M10 Bookers in the armored battalions. Their air defense battalions are a mix of towed and wheeled SPAGGs like the Viktor, which is the same systems used by the air defense brigade under divisional command.

However the main mechanized element - the 19th BCT - has a mix of wheeled and tracked infanty carriers in its mechanized infantry regiments and with the same vehicles of the motorized brigades in its motorized and rifle infantry regiments. The 19th Armored Regt operates mainly the T-64 and M48 Pattons as well as a company of Leopard 1s.

103rd FA Brigade operates 3 battalions of towed guns, an administrative regiment of two SPG battalions, each wheeled and tracked, and one MLRS battalion alongside a strike UAV battery under its command.

Stonebotnik fandom! Consider an episode of Sonic Boom where a new coffee place opens up. Eggman hasn’t been seen doing anything evil sence the place opened. Team Sonic doesn’t put two and two together (except tails ans Sticks because it be funny if sticks is just going off on a conspiracy theory and Tails is like i mean actually that might be right and their theory is just a bit off) The team follow cubebot or orbot picking up supplies for Eggman only to find out “Ohhh, he setting up a picnic for the coffee place owner(Stone)”

More in depth episode plot because i thought about this for too long

Shot opens up on Tails at a calender. He crosses it off with a red marker. Zoom out the calendar has little Eggman logos on the days when Eggman attacks them. There are No logos for a week and a half. Tails asks Sonic and Sticks if they’re concerned with Eggman not attacking for a full week. Sonic says something along the lines of “Oh he’s probably just plotting something a bit bigger. Just enjoy the vacation”

Amy and Knuckles come in to sonic’s house with a beverage tray of coffees. Amy passes them out. Tails asks Amy about Eggman not attacking them. Amy says that maybe Eggman’s just taking a week off. Sonic takes a sip of his coffee and is like “man this hits the spot is this from the new place?” Amy says “Yeah, the baresta there is so nice. He says he used goats milk rather than regular milk” Sticks gets upset about the goats milk and chucks hers and Sonic coffees out the window because Goats Milk is Evil and there are chemicals added that can turn people into zombies or something. Tails looks back at the calender asked Amy how long the Coffee shop has been open. Amy responds with about a week and a half. Tails asks Sticks to come with him for a second they both leave.

(Commercial break)

Open up with Amy, Knuckles, and Sonic walking down the beach talking about Tails running off with Sticks. They overhear Eggman talking to Cubot and Orbot about gathering supplies for him while he takes care of something. It looks suspicious as hell. Sonic follows Eggman, Amy follows Orbot and Knuckles follows Cubot.

Meanwhile, Tails and Sticks are interrogating the Stone the baresta. Its mostly sticks while Tails just orders a Coffee to analyze. He orders a just a black coffee with goats milk. Stone gives Tails the coffee. Tails pulls Sticks away by the arm while she’s going on about her conspiracy theories. While they leave she yells “You can’t silence me! I know what you are goat milker!” In Stone brain 🏳️‍🌈? In Sticks brain EVIL!

Cut to Amy. She’s following Orbot. Orbot is picking flowers, grabbing a nice blanket, from a store, getting premade sandwiches. She just gets more and more confused. Amy jumps Orbot and asks what Eggman is planning. Orbot just sheepishly says that Eggman was planning to ask out the barista at the new coffee shop. She just kinda backs off and like Oh, Shit! For real? She then decides to help Orbat with preparations.

Tails is analyzing the coffee he doesn’t find anything. Sticks is pacing back and forth talking about how she knows she’s right. Sonic walks through the door coffee and croissant in hand. “So, I think your theory might be right” Sticks is “Like yes! Yes! I knew it! Goat Milk mind control!” Sonic says”What? No! Im talking about Eggman being connected to the new coffee shop. Apparently he’s been going there nearly everyday since opening and asked the barista Stone to meet him at sundown.” “He’s meeting with the Goat Milker!” “Yeah!” Amy slams open the door. “Guys i figured out what’s going on with Eggman! He’s in love with Stone!” “Amy, that’s ridiculous! Eggman can’t be i love with Stone” “Sonic, Are you homophobic?” “No! I’m not homophobic! Im just saying there’s no way Eggman is in love with Stone!” “That sounds homophobic!” “Amy! You are being tricked! Eggman is doing something evil!” “How can you be so sure?” “Is it because he’s gay?” “Im not homophobic!” Tails cuts in “Guys! It’s almost sundown! We can question Sonic on his homophobia later! We have to find Eggman in case he is plotting something!”

Cut to Sonic leading the group through the woods where they find Eggman and Stone having a picnic. Amy is like see i told you they’re in love! Amy and Sonic argue. Knuckles finally returns. Sonic asks him where he’s been. Knuckles responds that he was helping Cubot play the violin. Cubot joins the picnic and starts playing beautiful piece on the violin. Sonic says “This is stupid. Let’s go home” Sonic, Tails, and Sticks head home. Knuckles watches them leave. “Is Sonic homophobic?” He asks Amy. Cut to black that’s the episode.

So, in the My Friendly Neighborhood universe, puppets and humans co-exist.

Seeing a sentient puppet seems to be as normal as seeing a stray cat. Nothing weird there.

We know this because of the way Gordon reacts to Ricky, because of how, in one of the newspapers, the token human actor talks about them as if they were thier own people and not costumes ir props, and because of how they weren't allowed to watch TV while they were on production.

There was no twisted experimentation, no strange rituals, or anything or the sort. They just are.

Which makes the game even sadder for them.

These were living sentient creatures that got no experience in the real world because they weren't allowed to, but they still got abandoned when their show was canceled. Nobody stayed behind or came back to check on them every now and then. Nobody came to guide them through the world outside and teach them how to deal with it (they could already tell right from wrong, as implied on Ricky's dialogue: "...it was mean... it felt like we were dying..." they just didn'thave the means to deal with that level of mean), nobody was there to tell them that, yeah, it sucked, but it was going to be alright...

But I think that's part of the point. People on the mfn universe got a survivor attitude. The general sentiment is that kindness and friendliness are harmful because, to survive, you need to put yourself first and stop caring about others, so, under these circumstances, it's understandable the crew would just left them there on their own; it was easier than helping them adapt to the real world. If they face reality, they should deal with it themselves. And so they did.

And that's the nice part.

Though some of them got twsited beyond repair, others (specifically Ricky, for the purpose of this... mini essay) understood that people needed hope and light in their lives. He (along with others, maybe) saw the darkness and doom of the real world and eventually and was like, "Nah, let's fix that."

Did he orchestrate the events of the game by broadcasting knowing that maybe someone would come and then subtly guiding them?"

Possibly.

And, if that was the case, it worked:

One of the things I take from the game is that, yeah, things can be pretty bad, but we can always choose kindness, we can chose to be a good neighbor, orbat least try. even after seeing how bad things can be.

(Hey, I never said that was easy. It just how it is)

Day 5 - MSM OC/sona

Orbat! Is there anyone else who remembers it?

Yugioh Zexal design flaws

Here's my opinion on Yugioh Zexal, they story and monsters are fine it's just the designs on curtain outfits that got me off and a curtain XyZ monster that had a Gender error in the show

The Swimsuits in school, they look and coloured like Gymnastics suits, which in real life, they aren't made for swimming

This is the swimsuit Tori wore

And compare it to a gymnastics suit

They are overall the same design

Even Rio Kastle has a bikini

As you see

And This monster Temtempo the Percussion Djinn

As she's mistaken for a boy in her debut but the second time she was summoned after Muzurhythm the String Djinn was destroyed by Googly Eyes Drum Dragon, Orbatal 7 said "If you think I'll be beaten by a little girl you are sadly mistaken", which had a Gender error in her debut but fixed it in the duel against Orbatal 7 as you see She's wearing earrings and she has the same blush as Dark Magician Girl

As you see here

The story and characters were good, but some of the designs were a bit of trail and error, but that's my opinion

Chapter 23: Two Attempted Murders DO Make A Right

They started to walk back to Jez’s home, but then Layane remembered. Roan. He would be lying, half dead in the middle of the forest…

Oh, right. Remember that murder Layane committed?

“Shall we look for him?” asked Jez. “He tried to kill me,” muttered Layane. Jez sighed. She stopped walking, and watched Layane walk on Layane.

Presented without comment.

“But…” [Jez] half shouted. “Inside, do you really think he wanted to?” Layane stopped, and slowly turned back.

Choosing to imagine Layane's body twisting around so her feet are walking on her back, and then her head slowly turns at an unnatural angle to look at Jezirah.

Layane agrees that it didn't seem like Roan wanted to kill her. You'd think they would assume the bird got to him, too. Because that would make sense.

Nah. That doesn't cross their minds. Maybe that's a good thing - they'd be pretty horrified to later find out that isn't the case.

They retrace Layane's steps and find the clearing. Predictably, Roan's body is not there.

“He was there,” said Layane, pointing. “Well, he’s not there now,” said Jez. “He’ll be alive.”

I mean, obviously she's right because I wasn't going to kill Layane's murderous love interest halfway through the book, but surely someone could have moved his body?

Layane felt tears sparking in her eyes. She walked over to where he had been standing. There were footprints leading away from the place he had fallen, and the gun was on the floor. “Roan did not want to kill you,” said Jez.

I think he kinda did? Some guys told him to kill her, and he actually tried, even though he wasn't in any danger at the time...

“Did you use ‘Orbator’?” asked Jez. “Yeah,” aid Layane. Jez sighed with relief. “It’s only fatal if you hit someone in the heart or head,” said Jez.

So glad that Depriver Of Parents Or Children isn't fatal unless you hit someone in the heart or head.

“I want to see Roan,” said Layane. “I think he’ll feel guilty if you go and see him,” said Jez. “Wait until tomorrow.” “I’ll feel guilty all night if I think he’s semi-dead,” muttered Layane. “Let’s just go,” said Jez. Layane looked down. “OK,” she muttered. “Come back, now,” said Jez. “Yeah,” said Layane. “I’ll go and see him tomorrow.”

The chapter ends here.

These kids have known each other for ONE WEEK. They have spoken to each other only three times, if you count Layane's attempted murder.

Layane, he tried to fucking kill you! Get some self-respect! As far as you know, he happily joined the men who killed your parents!

Sigh. Let's ignore that. Clearly twelve-year-old me thought this would be super romantic so... whatever. Fine. It's romance, Layane loves him, etc etc.

Why the FUCK would you not send someone to check on him? Even if you've accepted he was acting against his will and the dropped gun means he'll never kill again, he might be badly injured! Fair enough that his attempted-murder-victim maybe shouldn't be the one to check in on him, but can't Jez? Or Jez could send someone?

Also, I have no idea why Jez asks Layane to come with her again after Layane already agreed.

This whole chapter was 400 words long.

Yet Another ORBAT Resource

Because I always need more of them!

There's a fair few cold war ones on this link if you scroll down, if that's what anyone needs. Tagging @nerdexer for another military research resource, since you've already found the army publishing directorate!

[llycaons]

when I first watched hxh I remember so clearly losing my MIND over gon and killua and while I do think they're still gay and will be life partners of some kind orbat least in eaxh other's lives in some capacity as adults I have to say I'm almost 30 and their dynamic is very moving but also they're 14 years old at the OLDEST in their story and like 11/12 when they meet so some of the convos around them come off a little goofy

I recently finished Cassette Beasts! It's an amazing Game (despite the technically issues it has on Switch) and of course I had to make my own OC!

Skiver is actually a Character, I have since quite a while now but it has been used for several ideas at this point. Now I think, it found it's perfect place. Below the cut, I'll show some old Designs of this lil guy!

Skiver is an Air-Type Monster with an affinity to Poison. It's also a huge Glass-Canon with high Speed and Attack but low Defense and mediocre HP.

It can also be remastered to a Monster named Orbat, which I have yet to design. As well as it's Ranger xD but one at a time xD

I recreated the Summary Screen of the Game as well as the Tape :3 Really like the Sticker of Skiver on it tbh xD

If anyone is interested, I could offer the Template free to use for other Peoples CB-OCs!

Hope you guys like it!

Below the cut you can see some of his older designs!

This was the first Design I made of Skiver 6 years ago (2017)! Back then he was meant to be a Character for an RP that got discontinued after a while xD His name was R-180 or Radar xD

This was the second design of him! This is from 2019! I renamed im to Vleiffle, which was the idea of a Friend back then! He was meant to be a Monster-Companion for a MMO-Class in my Original Story CyberGhost back then! Cyberghost kinda got scrapped tho after a while xD

This was the last Version I made of Skiver later in 2019! I tried to turn Vleiffle into a Digimon and rename it to Vleifflemon. It kinda fit but I had no use for him for so long, so I scrapped the idea again xD Since then he was kinda catching dust until Cassette Beasts came along xD

DAAAMN, I FINALLY FINISHED IT!!1!!! fan msm island - Night Island. I think it'll just stay at the concept stage. song - Sleepwalk-Forrest Day (i think it may be cover...or remix. idk).

Let's take a quick look at the canonical monsters that are present here. I would really like to cram the natural ones in here, but they just don't go with the song itself.. That's why they're magical. -one-element: Clackula, Floot Fly, Fluoress. -double element: Osstax, Knucklehead. -triple-element: Mushaboom. -Erthereal: Ghazt. now the most interesting and delicious part: fan monsters. I will tell you about them quickly, too, without unnecessary words.

Orbat - one-element monster of the Night Island. It makes truly heavenly sounds. It sounds like Gob. while she sings (i can say that, right?….) a circle on her stomach and her eyes begin to light up. instrument: pipe organ. Meteoro - He uses vocals during his part.. Well, how are the vocals.. just purring/mumbling.. something like that. Sunstroke - just rams its paws on the spheres around it. Instrument: Cajon (percussion). Silky - MY FAVORITE. ahem.. This kid is literally the foundation. base. He plays the whole song in the background, using his silk threads and bow. Instrument: violin. Violosker - this cat can play on his long whiskers and on your nerves. I'm sorry for the stupid pun. he makes a long and drawn-out sound during his playing. it can be heard mainly in the background (very good at duet with a Silky) instrument: cello. Howl - a sad guy for life. His song is more like crying and howling than the hooting that other owls make. That's why he's called that. Dragolight - a dragon resembling those in Chinese mythology. when his turn comes, his crests, eyes and stripes on his body flash with a bright lemon light, with a distinct sound. (and it also looks like a watermelon). Instrument: electro-synthesizer. Sello & Dart - these are the ones here.. What's their name.. Vocalists?????? Singers?? uh, Werdos. they are the main stars here: they sing the lyrics of the song.

That's it.. heh. I don't think I'll come up with another fan island later, despite the fact that it was a very interesting experience. with the monsters that we already have, I may still publish something. (if u had questions - ask always open)
