Time Travel is pointless. If they get nuked how are they to time travel back when they are all dead? And Felix Felicis are rare and near impossible to make.
The military have nukes at the ready. That may be 'Ungimping' the Military.. But saying the wizards have that potion, which the only vial on record was used by Harry Potter, isnt Ungimping them its buffing them up to turn it into a Spite thread.
To keep in line with the Thread Rules, I can See Wizards having a spell to block bullets. And since the Military are Gimped and cant use Nukes I see Wizards winning. But with Nukes it doesnt matter how many Time clocks or Luck Potions they have. You cant Time Travel if your dead and a Potion of Luck doesnt mean diddly when a giant ball of fire is coming at you.

But that all aside, assuming you are right, this was a disingenuous thread from the beginning because you never thought it was a fair match, leading me to think that you made this thread only to wank your favored side and reaffirm your own biases.
Originally posted by Scarlet FoxYou can clearly see what multiple wizards are capable of on the fly under duress. Saddie thinks one wizard created it the fool that he is. Post proof a nuke would get through it. Saying it would isn't proof, girlfriend.
Are you talking about the shield they cast up when Voldemort attacked Hogwarts? It was more then one wizard who helped cast it. I believe 3 or 4. However I do nto recall any Wizard 'Maintaining' the shield. Not to mention I am sure a Nuke would get through it. If the blast was blocked then the Radiation would kill them all.
Nope.

The fanboy twins don't know that besides a blast, a nuke sets off huge amounts of heat, light, radiation and an EMP. So if they somehow manage to block the concussive force, they'll still be cooked, have their retinas burned out, get radiation poisoning and their electronic watches will stop.
Ps. Calm down.

Not an easy win, but yea, I figured they'd take 60/40. It was only later I realized the wizard's true power levels and capabilities

You have some kind of preconceived idea of my motives, so what you think is wrong at the jump, and thus kinda irrelelvant

Not really. I proved their win here with screenfeats. There was only one stipulation which was the US don't get nukes. You could have argued anything, but instead you outright said that a nukeless military would lose.

Not really. a nuke would be just as much spite as Felix Felicis

It wasn't a fair match. That's why I took away nukes. If the US had them, it would be a horribly one-sided curbstomp thread, the kind of spite thread you supposedly wish to avoid.

No. Your double standard of US getting nukes=fair fight and anything is some kind of spite match, pretty much just reaffirms your bias against HP magic. I don't understand how you fail to grasp the concept that if the US get nukes, it would be a horrible spite thread in their favor. The wizards win here, but it isn't a spite match, not like you want it to be. What a hypocrite 😂

😕 So the US getting access to their most powerful weaponry is ungimping, but the wizards getting access to their most powerful weaponry is spite? How would the US having nukes make it any less of a spite thread than if the wizards had Felix Felicis? Your double standard is ridiculous.
Guys...guys...here's the reason the US Military can't have nukes:
The magic shields may protect them from both physical and magical intrusion, alike...but it does NOT shield from EMR! Light gets through, bitches! If a nuke is detonated, they are killed nigh instantly from the EMR energy from any nuke. Thus, no nukes in this thread or it becomes absurd spite against the wizards.
🙂
WEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Please keep this weakness of the shields in mind as you argue in other threads for or against the wizard's shield spells. 🙂
😆 The US regularly has nukes at it's disposal? You act as if the US uses nuclear bombs on a hourly basis. Just as the wizards have only used Felix and the Time-Turner once, the US has only used a nuke once (rather twice) since the weapon's inception, 68 years ago.
Why can the US get a weapon they've only used once but the wizards can't? Again, I love your double standard that the US can get the most powerful weapon they have but the wizards aren't allowed to.
They didn't even use a nuke in Battle: Los Angeles. Matter of fact the most powerful mentioned weapon in B:LA was an airstrike on Santa Monica, which would only cover 15 miles, and the wizards have 469 miles of LA that they can instantly teleport to. It's funny how we've actually seen Felix used in the HP series, whereas a nuke was never used in Battle: Los Angeles, and the one that was mentioned sure as hell can't flatten a 469 mile radius, but yet the US is just going to be dropping Tsar Bombas like rainfall. Again, I'm loving the double standard
Also, if we use your double standard that Felix must be brewed from scratch, then by that logic, the US is going to have to build it's nukes from the uranium up as well.
You saying now that the US does not have nukes at the ready? I'm not saying they use them but it's very clear they can. The wizards on the other hand don't always have the potions and time turners at the ready. Again i don't think the US should be allowed the nukes im just pointing out why others are saying this
My main grievance is that people are accusing me of making a spite thread just because I banned nukes to make the thread fair, just as I banned potions, as they would tip the balance way too far. I proved the wizards win without the US using nukes, so people out of butthurt are acting like I purposely gimped the US out of bias, when banning nukes was clearly a logical act to even out the match.
I'm making the point that if I allow the US their most powerful weapons, the wizards would also be allowed theirs to make it fair, to show how the initial conditions are completely fair and unbiased, despite claims to the contrary.
I say nukes, and HP wizards get what they have as known equipment and powers, strictly by screenfeats. This is the only way to see who is more effective thusly rendering it a debate actually worth having. Otherwise its just a butthurt grudge thread from the many wizard losses here prior to this thread.

You can tell how retarded the military supporters are when they are arguing nukes when the OP specifically bans them. Hilarious how the wizards win, so now the military backers are going to spend 10 pages crying about how the fight isn't fair just because the US don't get their absolute most powerful weapon (their bias deluding them from the fact that the wizards don't either). The stupidity is like a galactic supercluster in scope 😂
