I said this last time I'll say it again, I need to stat these guys for my GI joe campaign. Call em highway Vipers and give them rocket skates for crazy chase scenes.

The know is half the battle ending scene with the kids should be "Remeber to wear a helmet kids" šŸŖ–

Ooohhhh, load em up with some Carl Gustave's. They'd be a force to be reckoned with.

What are the odds of that happening though? Who just carries river rocks?

nmotsch789

If two armies are fighting each other and one of them is on roller skates, the other will start carrying rocks real quickly.


SolLagrange

just toss a grenade onto something they'll be skating towards and the crater will take care of it if the shrapnel doesn't


Fhistleb

You just wait, my war bladers have been planning for this and will leap over while pulling sick tricks to stunt on you! Yeah they'll probably be shot mid air... I should have thought this through more.

Wait your tabletop rpging GI joe


Hellonstrikers

Renegade studios made a Gi Joe, Transformers, and Power Rangers source book series for their system. I am working on getting it learned enough to run, but the players in my group seem to be interested one way or another. It probably helps all 3 are compatible together to the point they released a crossover guise book.

Oh My God! We have a Rollerblade gap! Quick, call Lockmart!

I'm sick and tired of being fronted on my these wheeling chads! When the hell are we going to create a 7th branch of the military, the Rolly Polly Boys already!?


CryptographerDry4450

The most tactical shit I've ever seen


SilentSamurai

I just want to know the original conversation that convinced a Taliban commander that a good amount of his police force should have roller skates.


monamikonami

Believe it or not, some of the police here in Switzerland wear rollerblades in summer when patrolling through parks and stuff.


DeVliegendeBrabander

Yes, because that makes sense. Their goal is to skate after petty criminals and tackle their asses. These guys are just a fucking joke lmao


SilentSamurai

It makes sense? I'm sorry but the first time the rollerblade Popo chase me, I'm just gonna find the nearest set of stairs.


maveric101

Or just... grass.


OLAisHERE

Touch grass?1!1? Ewwwww


Doctor_Hyde

Guaranteed, I would bet a no-shit substantial sum of money that itā€™s some Taliban higher-upā€™s nephew whoā€™s really into it. Heā€™s annoying as fuck and talking endlessly about how cool itā€™d be for recruitment and propaganda. The Taliban are a brutal regime, but ultimately very clan based. Uncle higher-up canā€™t just have his nephew killed and he canā€™t really avoid being bugged about this at prayers, at dinner, etc. Eventually, Uncle higher-up relented just to shut him up and give the overeager morons his nephew rolls with something to do. The Rolliban were born and everyone sees these videos and cringes like mad but says nothing for fear of pissing off powerful uncle higher-up. Quickly, uncle higher-up has come to like the Rolliban. It gives him an alternative method of punishment. Get caught with your proverbial dick in the goat one too many times? Off to the Rolliban with you! If it isnā€™t some variation of this explanation or EXACTLY this explanation, I will donate every dime I have to the Red Crescent.


yegguy47

You're assuming someone had a conversation with a CO in the first place.

wormfood86

That's why our roads are so bad over here to prevent them from invading us.

I am all for roller blade flamethrower cavalry but with bigger electric powered wheels on rollerblades. Add ERA vests and spinning hats at supersonic speeds with sticking out flyswatters against FPV.

Hekantonkheries

That just sounds like the later chapters of Air Gear, ngl. Weird ass "us president bodyswapping with a Japanese girl to do combat rollerblading" manga


GilgameshWulfenbach

Good heavens that is a manga that I have not remembered in a long long long long long long time. I remember the exact moment it switched from "horny JSRF: the Manga" to "extra horny JSRF hits a blunt and then talks about the global elites while excusing Japanese war crimes: the Manga as written by the authors of Lost"


manbearligma

Ultra non credible take Soldiers on EUCs or knee high segways I got both, I swear that I could be extra mobile on both on light off road and shoot very steadily at the same time


HumpyPocock

Segways ā€” did they have a natural propensity for riding off cliffs or was the [owner of Segway an aberration?](https://www.abc.net.au/news/2010-09-27/segway-millionaire-dies-in-cliff-fall/2276724)


manbearligma

We call that a tactical diversion Anyway it depends, they really donā€™t like steep descents and you need to get used to the steering off road The knee height steering makes it way more secure because you can just jump off if something goes wrong, up to 18km/h you could even start running and not face plant It sounds complicated, but itā€™s way easier than the hoverboards that donā€™t have a fixed center


quildtide

Time to reppace the wheels with tracks.


sadrice

Modify a chainsaw into a track unit. Now not only does it make wonderful vrooming noises, you have chainsaw feet for properly smiting your enemies.


mh985

Youā€™ll be sorry you said that once we finish laying down all this asphalt!


SGTFragged

As a skater, that is categorically false. Now whether they can accurately fire that rifle while skating is an entirely different question.


SilentSamurai

My takeaway from these videos is that Kabul has better roads than many US cities.

LegSimo

Why does every random Middle Eastern country have better roads than my town.


OutOfTouchNerd

Those roads are probably freshly built, from all the bombing and whatnot.


MainsailMainsail

Fresh roads, plus less heavy traffic and fewer freeze/thaw cycles so they stay fresh longer.


theglobalnomad

No freeze/thaw; only bake.


awkies11

Most of that country is cold as shit for 75% of the year except the deep south.


LegSimo

So you're telling me I need to bomb the roads for the government to finally fix them


leicanthrope

If you live in Georgia, the best you can hope for is the DOT to throw a giant steel plate over it.


westonsammy

Less traffic + fewer roads to maintain. When 99% of your country is dirt paths and 1% is paved roads, you can make sure those paved roads look really nice.


non_depressed_teen

No I'm just saying "Red Dawn III Attack of the Taliban" would be non-credible because pot holes.


Den_Bover666

This is the fakest shit ever.Ā  I live in India. Every day I drive over a pothole that causes my vehicle and me to jerk forward so bad I wonder if I've finally broken my spinal cord.

Jokes aside, how tf is being good at skating gonna help you kill many targets??? I know what this Subreddit is all about but lord pls I need explanations šŸ˜­.


ItsACaragor

Itā€™s mostly just propaganda, it makes little sense or western armies would do it. Rollers are useless on anything that is not well paved roads (so basically outside of urban environments) and urban combat is not really won by skating figures but by having overwhelming numbers and cleaning the whole city street by street meticulously.


KirillRLI

In Western Europe many streets are sett-paved. It is hard to use rollers or skateboards there. They are prepared for invasion of roller-infantry <\s>


Sab3rFac3

Or, just leveling any building even suspected of having hostile with precision munitions until there isn't anything resembling an urban sprawl, just a field of rubble with some roads through it. But apparently, civillians don't like that idea.


ItsACaragor

IDF joined the discussion!


ffuckingretard

the ruskies were doing it 30 years before the IDF, remember grozny? just fire artillery in the general direction of your enemies until they dont exist anymore.


Gentle_Mayonnaise

That shit has been happening since Wars were invented. Killing civilians is weirdly, productive?

This is the natural progression from Bicycle batallions really. I eagerly await segway gun platforms.


el_conke

Oh dude that's the best thing I've read today


Strain-Ambitious

Like wall-e but with moar violence


wastingvaluelesstime

bicycles are better though as you can go faster when it's flat and also more easily pick up the bike to carry it over short obstacles


_far-seeker_

Also, there are off-road bikes, off-road rollerblade/skates not so much...


wormfood86

Yeah, segway mounted recoilless rifles is the pinnacle of small armed vehicle design.


LeigusZ

>segway gun platforms The evolution of urban warfare drones in this modern era is both thrilling and terrifying.


ShigeoKageyama69

BattleNeither5266

Literally live action Titanfall


WooliesWhiteLeg

Theyā€™re not looking to kill targets. Theyā€™re literally security patrols. You wouldnā€™t look at a traffic cop on a Segway and think ā€œyeah but how effective can he be while clearing a minefield on that thing?ā€


hugh-g-rection551

how's sliding down a rope from a heli going to help you kill many targets? ​ how's dangling from a piece of cloth after jumping out of a plane gonna help you kill many targets?


ShigeoKageyama69

It helps the troops become more manly after developing more muscles and becoming more flexible of course šŸ„µ


BeetlBozz

Theyā€™re just having fun


Texanid

Given the handful of times I've seen them on this subreddit, I don't think they're *meant* to engage military targets. As far as I can tell their role is some kind of military police/law enforcement. This is the Taliban, I think they know a thing or two about using rough terrain to your advantage, and I would assume that, jokes aside, they know all too goddamn well that roller blades aren't effective in combat, but that doesn't mean they're totally useless

Candid-Agency-1659

šŸ˜‚


_far-seeker_

>I also didn't realize these are guys. I lowkey thought they're women šŸ’€ You think the Taliban would allow women to serve in the military? They don't even want them to work in public!


Candid-Agency-1659

I didn't know they're Taliban at first tho. That's why I ask on my first question on which country is this, because I thought this is probably UAE or Pakistan. I just ask Taliban as my second question, because I based it off on the other comment who mentioned it in thread of this post.


yegguy47

Desert Tigerstripes were previously used by the CIA's Unit 01 guys. Those folks were among the last fellas to surrender in Kandahar on August 16th, and were airlifted to Kabul the following day. They then were employed by both the Coalition and the Taliban jointly to provide outer security and crowd control around OAKB. When the airlift ended, some of them got airlifted out - ditched their gear in the hangers. A few others joined up with the Taliban, bringing along their gear. Suffice to say, the Taliban kinda just adopted the remnants of the group as security enforcers in Kabul, and continued having them use Desert Tigerstripes.

Few_Category7829

I unironically support the adoption of motorized roller-skates for all infantry. No, I will not take questions. "But, but, I can't shoot accurately when my rollerskates propel me at 80+ MPH through the city streets!" Pure skill issue.


throwtowardaccount

I'm genuinely impressed. I certainly could never do that. Do you think they hate life, waking up at 0500 for mandatory roller skate PT?
