Re: TL 9 Police Tactics
Quote:
While anti-riot gear and police should be to hand, they should also be out of sight and not confronting the protesters unless things start going bad. Also, if the budding riot is properly managed attacking the rioters with AoE gas and MAD (not that this looks to actually work that well in the real world) and so on will not be necessary or useful. If you have riots of this scale so often that you need to invest in this level of firepower, odds are that you're about to have a civil war (and that firing on the riots will just stir your population up more). Even if you do, using UT autocannon to deliver tangle rounds is a bad idea, because it's a high-velocity weapon, so it will cause injuries.

Re: TL 9 Police Tactics
It only becomes TL9 when key technologies are mature and ubiquitous, not emerging or prototypes.

Re: TL 9 Police Tactics
And there's the thread, folks.
If the original poster wants to restart the discussion keeping it VERY CLOSELY FOCUSED on materials suitable for inclusion in a GURPS game without side sociopolitical commentary, they may do so. Be aware that the mods are going to watch such a new thread very closely. ANY deviation away from the GURPSification of real-world factual information is going to be treated as derailment following a moderator warning; the offending poster is likely to receive a short tempban (or a longer one, depending on they history).
