The move is aimed at pressuring Ukraine, the EU, and NATO. The missile, with a mock warhead, will be launched from Sverdlovsk.
unlabelledView post →A 1970 computer game called ICBM lives once more after spending decades trapped as source code on paper. Let that be another lesson in the importance of printouts!
unlabelledView post →i think one of my favorite maneuvers by any boss from any game ever is when Jupiter King, from Metal Slug 3, grabs an implausibly large ICBM from its chest cavity and instead of doing anything clever, it just slams it nose-first into the floor
unlabelledView post →Sentinel ICBM industry PR video claims it will have “game-changing capabilities” youtu.be/OYVWY5dzv1I?... including new propulsion system in payload section to increase warhead accuracy. Already over budget, USAF claims it will be cheaper. www.airandspaceforces.com/sentinel-icb...

unlabelledView post →Did you know? That if you dropped a ICBM on Michigan stadium during a Ohio state vs Michigan football game, you would make the world a better place ?
unlabelledView post →i wouldn't say the gameplay is *deep* but unfurling the capabilities of each character and chaining them together feels good. The Gacha MC (note: this game is not a gacha) is usually an instant discard but Lute being able to dropkick like an ICBM is immediately charming.
unlabelledView post →Suppose one of these former Soviet ICBM bases could house Oreshnik. Let the game begin.
unlabelledView post →actually really funny to put an item from a completely differnet genre and setting into a game. here's a high fantasy rts with an emphasis on positioning and tactics. oh and by the way here's an ICBM.
unlabelledView post →A vampire aerospace or nuclear engineer would probably be a game changer for maintaining legacy ICBM systems, tbh

For all the goodwill this tournament brought the game of baseball, Team USA sure got none of it on ’em.” www.pinstripealley.com/yankees-edit...
unlabelledView post →1) Space is hard. It's about the hardest thing humans have done. The first attempts to reach space we're a by-product of the creation of the ICBM. It was a game that only superpower governments could play. The physics has not changed since then. It's still hard.

unlabelledView post →You could totally do a Metal Gear prequel game about The Boss fighting nazis. Go full Wolfenstein about it to keep the crazy weapons and boss fights. The target is the first ICBM, guarded by a hellish transforming tank that can roll, swim and fly, a proto-Metal Gear.
unlabelledView post →This is like a teaser trailer to an otherwise "lost" video game from 1970 — a *very* early real-time action game called ICBM. A single-player game, you would shoot a rocket at the UFO. Lars is bringing it back to display life.
unlabelledView post →Worth stressing that Silicon Valley was created because of the insatiable demand for ICBM guidance systems. The guys that now talk a big game about the end of all government owe the existence of their industry to the government's need to build WMD.
unlabelledView post →Started playing a new game today called 'ICBM: Escalation'. It is much like Conflict of Nations but much better. I'm still trying to figure it out a bit. If you like #strategy games this is a good one. store.steampowered.com/app/2647680/... #Steam #MilitaryStrategy #WW3
unlabelledView post →You're claim is a POTUS told foriegn adversaries to launch nuclear weaponry on a population of the U.S? If true, the fact that he thinks ICBM attacks are a game is pure evil. If true, he's inviting wholesale nuclear genocide beyond anything imaginable.
unlabelledView post →Unconfirmed reports from inside Iran saying that IRGC has upgraded the Omad missiles with an extra stage making it the first 3 stage ICBM with a hypersonic warhead. If this is true and they managed to mass produce it, it can be a game changer for both US and Israel. #IranMissiles #icbm #hypersonicmissiles #iran #military

unlabelledView post →Nothing says “old hardware, new mission” like turning an ICBM into a spy-sat launcher. Quiet launches like this are a reminder the space-intel game never sleeps- it just upgrades in silence. #SpaceSecurity #NRO www.msn.com/en-us/news/t...

unlabelledView post →Middle East? There was this report a few days ago of Iran testing an ICBM. Which would be a game changer. Not only would an Iranian ICBM put all of the Middle East within range, it also puts all of Europe within range. www.pbs.org/newshour/wor....
unlabelledView post →One time, when I was 8, at a high school football game, I went to bite in to a hot dog and squeezed too hard. It shot out the bun like an ICBM, hit a guy on the shoulder then bounced off the cast on his left leg, and landed in his open coke like a lawn dart.

unlabelledView post →Putins end game has always been for European NATO to shut down Apollo, the ICBM nuclear defense shield that protects the USA. No doubt it was Putin telling Trump to ask NATO for help. Putin is supplying targets for Iran, Putin hates the USA, no defense shield, no warning BOOM.

They expect that a Ukranian capitulation will happen ... this is not #Elections2024 & Ukraine's victory will be Trump's hard downfall, fuckers. #ICBM
unlabelledView post →Not that it's any better, but let us be clear. Was it an ICBM or an IRBM? It would not make sense to use an ICBM at that range. Either way, Russia is playing a very dangerous game. They don't want U.S. smoke, but this is pushing it, hard.
unlabelledView post →sometimes when I'm bored late in a civ 4 game I open the worldbuilder and give any barbarian cities left an ICBM or two just to see what they do with it

unlabelledView post →I love that people are very angry that there's guns in a fantasy setting in the new Fire Emblem when the previous game in this same setting had an ICBM.
unlabelledView post →today I got the smith morra ICBM-style trap again but this time I didn't have to remember it. So we were both blitzing out moves in a game with increment and they lost their queen with more time on their clock than they started with. sublime.
unlabelledView post →It got to the point where they just refused to lend me their games until I got older. Being a young child with autism that struggled with reading until 10 years old, I was a living ICBM too video game save data. I still feel like such shit! 😭😭😭
unlabelledView post →EU & NATO less US should start a serious weapons defense program. If the US left NATO, all nukes would be removed. France could spread its nukes secretly around NATO. ANY MAJOR NUCLEAR NATION STARTING A NUCLEAR WAR, IT'S GAME OVER FOR THE WORLD. The only ICBM defense might be hackers. Start here.

unlabelledView post →reminds me of the game ICBM
unlabelledView post →In the F:NV DLC "Lonesome Road" you are faced with an ICBM launch that you can only prevent by sacrificing a companion. You can instead choose to nuke both the East and the West. Oddly, the game gives you a high level area for this, so the extrinsic motivation is opposite the diegetic one.
unlabelledView post →More effort should go into locating the launch point and/or vessel. It takes a lot of fuel to turn so disguising the origin would be difficult. Likewise, it could be easier to fake an ICBM warhead than to build one. Small bad actors might try poking a giant in the eye (ref to Ender's Game)
unlabelledView post →I'm playing ICBM because I'm bored and trying to wind down from a race I just had. Usually I'll play as North America. I decided to play "West Asia", Turkey over to India, fighting North America. NA seems to be the Gandhi of this game.
unlabelledView post →I bought the game ICBM last year or the year before. Essentially, it’s two or three hours of building up defenses and nuclear stockpile with a few naval skirmishes here and there, and then five minutes of sending all your nukes to destroy the world (or continent). Great way to kill time.

unlabelledView post →I actually think Wargames is the better cautionary tale as it addresses the Paperclip Problem. The AI is allowed to interface with the US ICBM system and its base code is to "win the game" at all costs. It isn't capable of reasoning or caring what's a game/simulation and what's real.
