You keep on using a nationalsocialist propaganda term, it is slightly annoying, also it is Wunderwaffe if it is singular...
They're just using it to describe the tendency to direct way too much effort into impractical superweapons. I mean, it's just german. The nazis may have coined the phrase, but that doesn't make the word itself evil.

If I was more than slightly annoyed you would realize. I am more iffed at the Wunderwaffen instead of Wunderwaffe, I just wanted to point it out anyway...

Yeah, that's kind of the problem...

It's not.

But I've already said too much.

War is still in air. And still have 3/4 jungle. So things are still interesting.

You Arstotzkan dogs can't even gloat without copying us.
Ummm, you are saying that from behind your new mass-produced heavy armour. This is the second time you have tried to copy our longbows. Your antimagic stuff was... interestingly timed... Not sure that you should be complaining about copyright infringement...

Armor: got me there

Bows: Not really copying you there, ballista are a siege weapon, your longbows are a combat weapon

Anti magic: I fail to see how we are copying you. If anything, you copied US with your mind reading blocking thingy

The correct term is "Tin-foil hats" and those are as old as paranoia...

Oh this thread is hilarious. Tin-foil hats now? Great. So, you conduct heat and electricity really well then, right?

You should really look to the wilderness for your stealth ideas, it has been doing it much longer than you have after all. Take squids for example, that ink trick works pretty well, and in water too! So you just sneak into the dam upsteam, dump several megatons of distressed squid into it, then break the dam. Boom, you suddenly have enough water-proof stealth for a whole city!

Yes, we conduct electricity really well, like wires do, you ever seen a burnt-out wire? Yes, of course you have, in fuse boxes and light-bulbs, the ones that are intentionally made weak and puny. Our Arstozkan wires are NEVER weak and puny!

Aw crap no suckers.

We just stole all your tinfoil.
And since Michael Faraday's great-great-great grandparents probably haven't even been born yet, you can't have a Faraday cage.

Exactly.

That's why its historical name is the "Arstozkan Cage", better known as the "Glorious Arstozkan Marvel of Cage Engineering".
