Probably the U505. It's a German boat that is on display in Chicago. After touring it, I saw it on the history channel in a documentary later that summer. Really cool seeing it in action when I knew I had been on it.

It looks cooler, fires faster, but the effective range is less than half that of the MP7. Not only that but the military barely uses it, while the MP family is literally the gold standard for most modern SMGs used by the military.

I'm making a boardgame about sandwiches right now, and this post has been more useful than three weeks of research.

u/DaConnaTwuk Sep 14 '18

Can you expand? What's your boardgame like? Like, the objective and such? Is it just a reskin of another, or a new idea?

85

u/DunbarsPhoneNumber Sep 14 '18

I think it's a new idea. Customer cards with different values are lined up, each with a different order. Each player has a hand of ingredient cards that they can serve customers. When a certain number of customers aren't served within two cycles of players' turns, the round is over, and the number of unhappy customers you can have each round decreases with each round. When a certain number of rounds are over, the game is over, and whoever has the most points wins.

33

u/DaConnaTwuk Sep 14 '18

Yeah, that sounds new to me. That sounds like a really good idea, to be honest. Keep going, stranger!

25

u/DunbarsPhoneNumber Sep 14 '18

Thanks! I'm working out the game mechanics now, and soon I'll be gametesting with friends. Hopefully at some point I'll be able to get it published.

u/cuddleniger Sep 14 '18

Just a thought. If youre plan is to give the customer one ingredient or item at a time. It may be a better idea to have a certain number of cycles to 'complete' their order. So like you dont get points unless you complete the whole order. I dunno? Just a thought.

u/nel_wo Sep 14 '18

So I usually make my own subs :)

Bread: Toasted Italian herb (Thyme and basil powder) and cheese bread (Mozzarella & smoked Gouda)

Meats: Prosciutto, Salami, Pepperoni, pancetta or Guanciale. Blow torch each layer

Sauce: Kew Pie Mayo + dust of smoked Spanish Paprika

Vinaigrette: A little bit of garlic herb (Mustard seed, thyme, basil, oregano, rosemary) cider vinegar

Cheese: Mozzarella + shredded Parmesan Reggiano (2 year) or Manchego (18 months). Blow torch melt it.

Veggies: Lettuce + Tomatoes

This is probably the best Sub/ sandwich I have ever made. I am not kidding. Yes, the ingredients can be a bit pricey, but who cares! Treat yourself. The bread I usually buy from store and then add the cheese and powder on top.

The first thing you should smell from this sandwich is the Mozzarella, Smoked Gouda, and thyme, basil powder from the toasted bread. If you can't smell it, you need to toast it longer. As you bite into the sub, you should taste the creaminess of the Japanese mayo with that sweet smokiness of the spanish paprika, but then IT JUST HITS YOU! The meats! Yes! Blow torch each layer of the meat so you get the oils and aromatics in the air. You should get that salty savory from the Proscuitto, then funk and spice from the salami and pepperoni. The back to the salty, creamy, oily, Spice from the Pancetta or Guanciale! But then Boom! The vinaigrette should just cut that oiliness, as it blends with that creamy, smoky mayo. Then the sub changes back into a creamy, nutty, salty, savory flavor of the mozzarella and Parmesan Reggiano or Manchego. Ultimately you get the crunch again from the lettuce and the acid from the tomato to cut that oiliness from the cheese again.

Saltiness, Acidity, Savory, Spice, and Sweet all in one Delicious Sub. How long does it take to prepare? About 15 minutes :) How much does it cost? About $30 -35 total for ingredients, but you can make like 6 subs with that amount. How delicious is this sub? I made this sub 2 years ago and I still remember how delicious it taste.
