Foreign mercenaries currently fleeing to Poland after 118 reportedly killed in Russian strike.
"There were soldiers from all over the world, even from the special forces of different countries. The missile ended everything. The entire Ukrainian foreign legion was exterminated.”
lol the Reddit international legion got fucking yeeted straight into the :pit: .
Yes, I was here today and blown off the top bunk of my bunk bed in the barracks by the first missile. I made a long post about it but my posts don’t show on this thread for some reason. This is where all the foreign legion troops are, the 35 killed were all Ukrainian mostly due to a direct hit on their barracks next to mine. The base is destroyed, the weapons depot destroyed, possibly the end of the legion. About 60 people with their heads on straight including myself left after the attack. They’re sending untrained guys to the front with little ammo and shit AKs and they’re getting killed. The guys who stayed got bombed again in the afternoon and casualties aren’t clear. If you still want to to join them I’m not sure what the process will be since literally all the infrastructure supporting the training/assignments of volunteers is all destroyed. The guys who are there now will all be going to Kviv and many will die, the legion is totally outgunned and has a few crazy Ukrainian leaders. After the attack one officer wanted to march everyone to Kviv and fight. Absolute insanity. Stay home.
[Wait, left? From Ukraine?] Left the legion. Some are staying to help refugees - some going home. But it is clear that going to Kviv with the legion is nearly a fucking death sentence. A medic died the day after he got to the front, another guy tried shooting an AK at an APC and was killed immediately (WHERE IS THIS VIDEO?), a 10 man team was nearly wiped out - 8 killed and 2 crawled away. Your body will not be retrieved from the frontlines either.

Yeah morale was pretty good until today. No one thought the base would get bombed due to its proximity to Poland, but after not having any warning of inbound missiles (there’s alarm systems all around the base for that), no effort of anti aircraft measures, and then no issuing of weapons when the base was potentially under threat for an attack a lot of people were really just left feeling like no one stands a fucking chance, especially when things get real bad in Kviv.
Yeah it was weird. Some sirens from another part of base went off at 3:30 am for a short period. But the attack occurred at just about 545 with no warning, and they were in fighter jets so it should have been picked up.

Thanks man. The cannon fodder term is what was coming out of a lot of volunteers mouths that’s why I mentioned it. There was a real shift in peoples expectations of being utilized as a unit with operational capabilities vs. the reality of basically being bodies in front of the advancing Russians
Yes morale is pretty bad I mean the whole damn base was destroyed and now the legion is just kind of shoving guys with little training to the front. Not at all, they make you sign a contract that states you’ll serve until the end of the conflict, but if you want to leave an hour later they totally respect that
I appreciate that. And honestly I got a full nights sleep the bastards hit us at about 6. Luckily they didn’t hit at 7 because we would have been at chow and the chow hall took a direct hit.

:thonk:
Seriously these people, so bloody ignorant
My qualifications? Very good at both Hearts of Iron 4 and Shogun 2: Total War.
I’ll take double handgun and grenade launcher if we can choose.
Yeah they were just trying to shoot the doors off the APC battlefield style. Then they’d launch the grenade in and take out the evil Russians!
All the HOI4 experience will come in handy for breaking the Russian encirclements at almost every major Eastern Ukrainian city.

Disclaimer: I only play against bots. With this being a PVP game, I don’t know if my strategies will work as well. I would still like to enlist as a general though if we can choose our rank.
:rat-salute:
Do they have r/volunteersForRussia too? And if not, why?
Hmm I checked, it’s squatted
“Oh no, the memes, they have failed us!”
War doesn’t look quite the same against a real military as when you’re kicking down the doors of cowering villagers and shooting up their families now does it?
I hope these dirtbags, many of whom claim to have ‘served’ in Iraq and Afghanistan, never come home and die screaming painful deaths, and if they must come home it’s in wheelchairs with lots of parts missing.
For My Lai, Haditha and every other massacre of civilian life you removed dirtbags.
My god these redditors literally assumed that they would be fighting wind. “What the fuck, did the Russians just blow us up? No fair”. Absolute children

if someone can get me a video of this I will dm them a pic of my tits.
Edit: a bunch of those posts are deleted now
I hope they get the video :hyperflush:
Heres my contribution to the dunk tank:
The legion was actually amazingly well-put together in some ways, uniforms were great, armor provided, good food.
Do they supply you with those cool nazi patches too or do you have to bring your own?
This is where all the foreign legion troops are,
They got all the best foreign fighters in a single location? :data-laughing: Wonder of Zelensky will be held responsible for this
the reality of basically being bodies in front of the advancing Russians

And it’s only 6 miles/10km from the Polish border post as well. Couldn’t even hide the base away from the point all the foreigners are entering the country from.
That’s kind of what happens when the people you’re fighting have air support and tanks.
These bullies only know how to terrorise the weak, now that the shoe is on the other foot we see what happens.
but muh chris kyle 500 billion dead taliban
War is a fuck but goddamn do these people not understand what it’s like to fight an equal enemy? Or god forbid, a more powerful enemy? Maybe the survivors will be jolted out of the propaganda and won’t believe it next time…lol yeah right, but let a guy dream
What 75+ years of not having to fight an equal enemy does to a mf
NATO troop mfs when they can’t call in a MOAB strike against every house that might have a shooter inside :pit:
But for real, beyond the former veterans who have never experienced a warzone where their side didn’t have complete tactical superiority, people in the global North are generally raised to have an immense feeling of invulnerability, where the very idea of going somewhere dangerous and not being able to rely on a powerful state back home saving their ass if anything goes wrong is unfathomable. On the volunteers sub there’s a lot of commentors who believed that they would be allowed to head home with no problem should they choose to, or get captured by Russians.
But slowly these volunteers are gonna realize that Russian bombs don’t differentiate between Ukrainians and foreigners wearing an army uniform.

Russia officially announced that foreign mercenaries aren’t covered by the laws of war and will be prosecuted as war criminals.
What the fuck are these redditors thinking? The Russian penal system is a bluff?

As much as I want war-mongering chuds to be simply vaporized, I would also enjoy it if a few of them were tried at The Hague
"For the crime of being a redditor, you are hereby sentenced by the International Court of Justice to vaporization.
Please take my verdict, kind stranger."
One guy on :reddit-logo: said that all the spec ops people that joined the foreign legion are leaving because of “risk mitigation” and an “unfair fight”.
Bruh all these taticool spec ops etterkops have been fighting unfair fights for their entire lives against a bunch of goat farmers, calling in F 16s everytime they feel scared. And now they want to leave? Because it’s unfair?
Fokken no ways
unfair fight
lol
What’s that old saying? “If you find yourself in a fair fight, you fucked up”?
They really completely gave in to the “Russians hate everything and are deserting en masse” and “Ukranian air force shot down 1000 jets” propaganda
I’m not going to pretend I know exactly what is happening, but I know you don’t conscript your own prisoners to fight for you when you’re winning
Farewell to the Bazinga Brigades - 10th March 2022 to 14th March 2022
Still can’t believe that I half jokingly predicted half arsed opposite international brigades and then it actually happened. Also can’t believe how invincible these people thought they were. C’mon, you’re not an FPS protagonist, what were you expecting?
what were you expecting
They were expecting it to be like the War on Terror, unfortunately for them their enemy had modern Russian weapons not leftover 1980s stuff.
