Remember that a "miss" doesn't mean you actually pulled the trigger and didn't hit.

It can mean you didn't have a clear shot, your hit was so poorly placed that it couldn't possably do any damage, or the damage was so superficial that it doesn't do anything besides scratch the paint.


in reality, anti-tank weapons still need hit the right spot. There will be areas that the tank/vehicle may be completely invulnerable to your weapon. You may have fired and simply missed the area of vulnerability.

Not so brother.

The USMC might have chicks in it, but the crack commando's of the Royal Marines do not allow women in either.

And lets be honest, 30 mile marches with 90lbs of kit, 9 mile, half underwater assault courses, 200 meter fireman's carry in 90 seconds with both soldiers carrying full ammo loadout and support weapons? 30 foot vertical rope climbs with rifle and webbing?

Women couldn't get in even if they wanted to!

It's called statistics for a reason. As in statistically, you are more likely to roll X than Y.

This doesn't mean a particular roll, such as double 6's is impossible (2.78%) just not as likely as rolling a 7 (16.67%).

Heck, for a single die roll, any number (1-6) has an absolutely equal chance of occurring (16.67%).
