  1. "Odd. There is a different burning. But it does not hurt...."
  2. First, She checks her bags.
  3. Alice keeps running for about 50 meters, then slows to a walk. She keeps her eyes peeled for any shelter
  4. She'll grab the one at the center, and two others before running away.
  5. She looks for a bag with an axe or hammer, and food, grabbing it and keeping on towards the center.
  6. Alice sprints towards the pile of supplies. They know they need to prepare- otherwise she's dead.
  7. "Dominance. Let me command them."
  8. "I will walk forward, for and end of this blight"
  9. Akash winces as his hand burns under the glove. He walks towards the gate and steps through.
  10. There is a shard upload limit- you have about 1000mbs. It's possible you've run out of space.
  11. And this is why I'm playing a 2nd oath radiant. The actual investiture is supplied by Alleystorms (I think that's what they're called), but you still need a connection to the place, but if you create a repesentation of JinDo, you can get around that. It's in TLM.
  12. Possibly- but the lord ruler might also let them win.
  13. So yet again, the giant aluminum hulls of the boats and planes would likely cause some issues. not to say the average foot soldier wouldn't run in terror, but when it only effects people not indoors, the US military would be rather suspect.
  14. @Ookla the Hoppy @Ookla the Dokja @Ookla The Silver @Ookla the Tachyon @Ookla the Kansan is the full tag list
  15. You are not invading the water, though. Aircraft carriers are a hell of a drug. How exactly do the radiants burn stuff coming through the portal? Windrunners can't just sit there. I suppose you could put bridge 4 or whatever there, but that's again, so easy to destroy. Maybe a Fused with a soulcaster? That would be great for all of 5 seconds before the fire goes out.
  16. There is no island. There is a portal- presumably on the open water. Damn hard to burn water.
  17. Honestly, it would be really easy for the modern US military to take over Roshar. Other than Radiants, fused, and Shardblades, Rosharans have no way to attack a plane, or tank. Presumbly, they'd bomb major cities first. That's common practice, which would seriously mess up the flow of goods for roshar. The Us military has two massive benefit over the rosharan one- logistics and aluminum. "oh, but rosharans can teleport" one mights say. Through ten, easily findable and one central, bombable place. We saw how the fused were able to overtake oathgates- whose to say the us can't just carpet bomb it into nothing? Windrunners would struggle to be at every place at once, and our ships and land vehicles can go so much faster than rosharan ones. Once you cripple Urithiru or the oathgates, they're dead in the water. No more movement of people, except by small parties or giant slow moving aircraft. The second, funnier problem is the fact that a lot of modern everything is made from aluminum. The investiture immune metal. Now whether the exact alloy the US military uses has all of aluminum powers is unknown, but for the sake of argument, that's by far the funniest. I'd guess that bombs and gas weapons burn through stormlight pretty well. There are not that many radiant, frankly. There are 50 Windrunners (300 including Squires) and they're the most populous order by far (Perhaps excluding the skybreakers). Knowing that windruners get double the amount of squires as other orders, there is at most 122.5 (250/2* 49) on average per order. Probably less. There's something to the magintude of 1282 radiants in the world. There are more fused than this in the world. I'd warrant a 3:1 ratio sounds good? So that's ~5000 invested healers in the world. 5000 people will not be able to protect a world.
