    I can actually vibe with driving through a war zone in a golf cart rather than fucking walk at all.

      Yeah you just throw some C4 on the front and drive it to the enemy at full speed. If you bail out in time you can then blow up the whole shebang on the enemy position.

        I’ve seen a video of that being done in the war. Don’t recall if it was the Russian or Ukrainians doing it.

        I was gonna joke about Miguel the bomb disposal robot, but honestly that’s just FPV drones now.

      Yeah, and the electric scooters may look dorky in a warzone but honestly, mobility, ease of charging (if you have the equipment anyway, soooooooo maybe not the best choice for ruZZian?) and if my choices were “large slowish apc that’s loud AF and draws attention for miles around” vs “speedy quiet stick with wheels” I know which one I’m taking.

      Still needs a chicken wire cope cage though

      You’ve seen a Willis Jeep, right? Marginally faster than a golf cart, but slightly less protection.

      It probably won’t trigger an anti-tank mine, so there’s that.

      thinks more

      And it probably actually impacts a relatively small area to detonate mines, increasing your chance of getting through a minefield without triggering an anti-personnel mine, though I imagine that there, it’d be inferior to a pogo stick or possibly stilts.

        Hmm two tire treads continuous path, I think that’s more area than footprints from 1 or 2 people.

          Two tires?

          Oh, sorry, I was looking at the unicycle. You were indeed talking about the golf cart.

    Combat in Heelies would look like Quake 2 deathmatch.

    They already have ERA on drones, but it’s sensitive. I’ve seen a lot of videos where just bumping into a man or tank can set it off.
