Non-murican here, what's the point of a medic carrying an LMG?

I come walking down the street and out of the corner of my eye I see this poor old begger looking away.

A scumbag walks past him and kicks the beggers mug a few feet down the street.

I stop what I'm doing, grab the scattered coins and the mug and give them back to the guy, then hands him half my lunch and wish him a good day.

tfw in my country we weight things ourselves
tfw theft is so rare corporations would lose money if they hired somebody to do it for us

Because he can shoot stuff with it?

You have a point, people are rarely grateful. Most are neutral leaning evil.

But you don't do good deeds because they're easy. You do them because it's right.

I mean why doesn't he carry a regular rifle/carbine.

There is no benefit in doing the right thing.

It is a terrible concept and is a social ill.

Humanitarian aid causes more people to be alive that should be dead and are therefore a drain on resources while they contribute nothing for example.

Charity, allowing the severely disabled to live, and women's rights are all examples of things that are detrimental to society and humans on the whole.

Medics are support, they ride in tanks and shit or hand the weapons to other people to use instead of fighting most of the time. This allows people who are walking and will be fighting to be more refreshed for the actual combat while the medic does their healing.

Although having the medic snap and go full on murder mode has shown itself to be historically a bad idea for the enemy.

How do you define a paladin Veeky Forums?

>Because we're hilariously under-staffed, and we have a spare LMG?
>Or: More dakka.
Choose 1.

Someone who has a few rules, and will do their best to stick with them. Sticking to those rules can produce amazing results. But bending or breaking the rules must be met with caution, as it is not how a paladin handles themselves.

Paladin's swear to an oath to follow those rules, and will almost always do so unless in extreme cases.

Did you happen to not notice the word "combat" in the word "combat-medic"? I can tell you that I sure as hell aint riding around being comfy in a tank.

Guess that makes sense, although if the medic needs to help someone with their guts out, the force is down one LMG, unless someone else takes it.

>Buy Happy Meal for my son
>2 toys inside
>Return extra toy to cashier
>She insists I keep it
>Give extra toy to some urchin and his podunk mother, who should be spending her money on something other than fast food
>Leave knowing that child will have the time of his life, until he forgets the toy on the table, and his mother is "too busy" to go back for it

What if I told you that combat-medics only assists his buddies after the area is safe to act in? The area is safe to act in either when:
A) We're in cover, support arrived and overtook responsibilty for the fight
Or
B) We shoot the enemy real dead
Either way, the SAW can act to it's full potential, and the medic acts as a regular gunner up until that point.
It was a very expensive lesson to learn that Medics DO NOT ACT until the area is clear. Lots of people died for that lesson, and nowadays they teach us from that experience.

Alright, sounds like a good doctrine. I'm not really that familiar with how the medics act, especially not american ones.

This thread has attracted the holies/tg/entlemen around, I'm sure, so rather than make a new thread, I'm just going to ask-

What are 5 rules that a Lawful Good Paladin of Avandra could follow that would be interesting? (By Lawful Good, I don't mean smite all wrong-doers, just that he acts selflessly with a code).

So far, all I can particularly think of is 'Never begrudge the warmth of a campfire and invigoration of your ale to a fellow traveler', or something to that tune.

Not American dou. Swedish.

Oh, didn't know you use M249.

Lots of countries build off the FN MINIMI. The US and Sweden are just two of 'em.

Avandra feels more chaotic, with the focus of change, luck, and freedom, but go with what you want m8.

"Free as a Bird" - Cherish your freedom, and never take it from another.

That doesn't explain why combat medics carry around the heaviest gun, dont they need to carry meds and stuff?
Although I guess LMG is good for sitting "safely" in the back and giving covering fire.

Yeah, I get that and a true representative of a God would identify that putting static laws to the being of change is odd.

But my Paladin has seen the light of Avandra after years of feeling the absence of Kord, so whilst he's a convert, he still covets a strict code he once adhered to.

That's a cool creed though, something like Mass Effect 2's Samara, where she permitted the police to detain her for only one day, while she was processed, and if they insisted upon more time in custody, she'd take hostile action.

So is it in my.
Which country are you from?

Yeah but be careful with strict rules like that cause it can just get to 20 pages long and people will call you a faggot.

I agree with the lawful stay though that makes better sense.

"Lady Luck" - Luck is a fickle thing, it may be with you, or with another. Expect the unexpected for the unlucky moments, and cherish the lucky moments.

Not really a creed more of a saying, but at least it's something.

Am I on the path of a Paladin?

A cyber-paladin.

I like that one too, but I'd tune it to be something such as 'Never take anger in the loss on a gamble and never permit others to take anger in chance itself'

You lost at poker? Don't yell at the dealer- you played with luck and luck bit back.

Yup that's it, also best alien-space paladin.

'Fair Trade'- Never permit a crooked merchant and never knowingly up-sell your wares.
Does that sound right? Never try to haggle if you know your stuff's not worth it and tell off some stall-monkey trying to Jew gold out of an unassuming buyer?

That's good but up selling your wares is a pretty open saying, is an extra gold upselling? I think it would be best is don't rip people off.

If you know a weapon is worth a gold coin, then tell the merchant your selling/pawning it to that it's worth one gold piece and that's what you'll take for it.

The Quads of fair pricing and noble paladins have spoken.

>Be me, carrying stack of books down flight of stairs, can't see where I'm going
>Somebody put pieces of loose paper on the stairs in front of me, don't see it
>Step on paper, it slides out from under me
>Fall

...

Oh wow, a fellow former Explorer. Hey m8, you're on the path.

Over armored is over armored.

>Do you hate mobility and dexterity?

Basically just a cleric who focuses more on his martial combat skills than his ability to channel the divine

Speaking of, where is the "cleric loses faith/falls" meme?
