I'm sorry, I thought this was a discussion on war in Ukraine, not a thread for posting arbitrary pictures of roads and buildings for building computer game scenarios.
How foolish of me.
Here, have some scenario fodder that's very relevant to the war at hand - GM-94 grenade launchers need to be part of the standard equipment now.
 

I'll lets others explain the difference between a forum and a thread, and instead look forward to playing the CM scenario "Shoot a propaganda video."
 
I still don't know why people are trying to find big houses. There are a few near me, I'm not sure it'll help the conversation here to post photographs.

Yes.
Now, back to the questions: Why would we care about that road? What makes it so special that it should appear in a scenario?
What is the point in finding large buildings, when the Ukrainian military are more than capable of finding them themselves?
 
 
 

The second clip is apparently film footage - other tweets showing the crew, etc.
However, don't mess with Ukrainian pussy.
 

Tanks. Who needs them.
 

I could watch Zelenskyy handing out medals without getting emotionally involved. When you've lived in communities where the Commanding Officer is tracked from every single kitchen window as he walks through the estate waiting to see which door he'll knock on, you end up a bit inured.
This though got me.
 

Sure. Good luck hiding that in the Baltic. Still, thank you for distracting us from all the flirting going on.
It is to be fair very likely that the charges on the pipelines were rigged days ago, and either on timers or remotely triggered. Why be spotted at the scene of the crime when you can have high confidence nobody's going to ask what those strange lumps attached to the pipe are.
But that also means it's possible a surface vessel launched a submersible of some form, or even just divers. How many trawlers have been in that area in the last couple of weeks?
(I almost asked Russian trawlers, but I'm refusing to assume which country was responsible. I could name five that might think they'd heavily benefit, and that's not including the French.)
 
 

Thank you.
In return, I can only offer you "big nasty pointy teeth".

No, it is not. Do not go there.

This is where logic overrides emotion.
Nukes are scary. Nobody wants to be nuked.
Letting someone use the threat of nuking you to let them take away your country and torture/rape/murder your citizens logically leads to them picking up the next bit of your country, then the next.. you lose your country, its citizens suffer, and all you've achieved is not getting nuked.
I'd rather risk the serious escalation. If I'm going to die to Russians it'll be fighting them, not kneeling with my hands tied behind me screaming in agony from a crushed testicle. Dying to nuclear weapons or an artillery shell is a risk I'd rather take.

No, it is not. Do not go there.

No, aircraft - if anything aircraft are a bigger threat.
Admittedly in the middle of an ocean the aircraft are probably based on a floating platform of some kind - we could call it a ship that carries aircraft?
But look up 'dipping sonar' and 'sonar buoys' and airdropped torpedoes. They're quite nasty if your entire defense plan consists of 'hide under water'.
 
(None of which means that the redeployment is linked to Ukrainian aerial threats; certainly Sevastopol doesn't feel a safe berth for a high value target)

Russia finding out that nation state sponsored cyber warfare is no match for motivated teenagers.
