Orks are definitely the only species this would ever work for.
Although I’m surprised they don’t just make a gun that fires smaller guns that also fire bullets which themselves fire bullets… that explode.
You should check out Enter the Gungeon.
Everyone should check out Enter the Gungeon.
Its easy for us rougelike enjoyer’s to forget but the average person isn’t looking for entertainment where they die over and over slowly learning enemy patterns and unlocking new stuff. It takes a special kind of masochistic challenge chasing nerd to get something out of these kinds of games.
Choppa shoota’ or shoota’ choppy?
Mork said iz good, make it work!
You would need an equal and opposite angular momentum at the back of the chainsaw otherwise it will just rotate upwards and loop around in circles.
So a second chainsaw in the opposite direction?
Give this man a promotion!
Nah, second chain pointing forward rotating the opposite direction, with the teeth facing forward.
an equal and opposite angular momentum
Idea: contra rotating chainsaws.
If the chainsaw generates so much inertial that it challenges your trajectory, you’re doing something right.
You can balance it adjusting the rocket nozzle
just enough rotational velocity to counter gravity trying to pull the nose of the missile down though. and also the centripetal momentum of the chain would act like a gyro stabilizer insuring that it remains nominally upright.
You’ll need more mass in those teeth.
Depleted uranium chain saw teeth.
The real one deploys blades that cause the missile to spin at very high speeds before it slices through its targets like butter without an explosion
nuh uh, make it laser guided
Groovy
Yes
You’ll shoot your arm off.
This meme is so old it can legally drive at this point
I bet you’re so old you can drive too
(gottem)
nuked
40 horsepower??? Holy shit are you trying to cut titanium?
It’s an anti-tank weapon.
That’s actually a good idea for a new fallout weapon
The bang saw
What if you put chainsaws on a Hellfire missile to replace the blades.
I genuinely don’t think that would make a difference. No matter which version of those you get hit by a direct strike is going to turn you and your immediate surroundings into salsa. May as well save the construction costs.
New Helldiver support weapon?
Every 40k author is tearing up their manuscript right now and starting afresh,
…the screaming chainsaw missile tore through the mid-morning air, the astartes all laughed as it sliced though half a squad of guardsmen as they ate breakfast…
Serious Sam 4 has a secret RPC weapon you can find if you preordered the game or enable it with cheats. It’s as broken as it is fun.
I was hoping this linked to an XKCD article that discusses the question. Answering the question optional.
Hellfire R9X
Edit: thank you, C A B B A G E ⬇️
What the fuck
If they were they’d be a war crime.
It’s never a war crime the first time!
Israel: 👀
Why would that be a war crime if the Hellfire R9X isn’t?
Edit: whoops, wrong comment.
Perhaps, especially if combined with giant magnet neck collars like in the beginning of Wild Wild West
