I'm working on a novel based on this war, so I'll be bumping and lurking the thread.

Pic related kinda sums up the Rhodies during their unrecognized republic era.

Does this really need to be a daily thread

You don't even have real images for it

>>28872621
Well this Thread alittle slow

Maybe Selous Scouts

Why does anybody care about a bunch of crackers who lost a war?

Mugabe is an idiot and he kicked their ass.

>>28872714
FeelBadMan Zimbabwe we forever be Rhodesia in my heart

>>28872733
Mugabe did a SJW and cried Racism

>>28872708

I'm writing this book for /k/, so...yeah, I suppose.

>>28872714

With the way things are going down in Europe, I kinda feel

>>28872733

Not just Mugabe, Rhodesians were fighting afro-marxist forces from Mozambique to Zambia, while dealing with sanctions imposed by the British and enforced by the UN, I believe. Rhodies had economic support from South Africa until the mid 1970s, but that's about it. Meanwhile, Mugabe and other communist forces where backed by both China and the Soviet Union.

>>28872759

>I kinda feel
I kinda feel like there might be a resurgence of that nature soon.*

Fuck, I'm retarded.

>>28872751
Is this supposed to reflect well on Rhodesia?

Ian Smith did everything he could, but unfortunately, the UK got too booty blasted about it and basically forced him to put more cultural enrichment in the Rhodesian parliament

Quick question is there any country that use the "Kiko" hat

>>28872621
So did you made a section on the Selous Scouts?

>>28872942

Yeah, the protagonist lands a position with the Selous Scouts as a Crippled Eagle.

I know, right? It's also effective as fuck too.

>>28873318
To be fair The Rhodies were using Apartheid and could be Racist at time

>>28872714
Mugabe is asking for 1.5 billion in food aid to prevent starving. Plus the dam is about to bust and wipe out millions of niggers.

Give it a few years and we can walk back in and start over.

Does anyone know where to get a full set of Rhodesian BDU's?

>>28873348
Also it was a candidate for a new standard USMC Camouflage but they decided to make a new one instead that shows how good it was

>>28873367
Pretty few and far man sorry

>>28873386

>candidate for a new standard USMC Camoflage

WHAT? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?

I mean, MARPAT is fucking rad as hell, but WHAT THE FUCK? I'D KILL TO BE ABLE TO OPERATE IN RHODIE BDUs

>>28873357

Well heard the Zimbabwean National Army still uses it also it was up aganist Tiger Stripe.

>>28873399

Fuck, I know I should've taken the chance when that guy still had those threads up and running a few years back.

>>28873421

There is still hope, friend, Africa still remains wild and untamed for the most part.

>>28873440

>up against tiger stripe

While a bit of a niche camo pattern, damn dude, it would've been pretty badass to field it again.

So, Mugabe can do a Chaplin and whites won't complain but when some white dude does it, they're called a fascist neo nazi?

>>28873355
Who cares. I'd rather live in an apartheid and enjoy the rights I'm limited too than live in a commie shithole

>>28873487
Agreed Rhodesian Farms could've feed all of Africa.

I'm pretty surprised that no Pro-Zanu or Black Zimbabwean are here. Trust me they exist and I thought they be here by now.

>>28873536

I see them all the time in youtube comments on videos related to Rhodesia.

But yeah, there aren't a lot of commie fucks on /k/ anyways (Slavaboos don't count, they just appreciate soviet guns)

>>28873562
Gotcha. Still surprised none of them came

Hey gents, is this a reliable source?

>>28873674
I seen them before I think there reliability is 50/50

>>>>>>rhodie jacket at 60 bucks

That's one hell of an offer.

>>28873738

Bro, do you even remember this shit? Everybody forgot, in like, two days.>>28873752

>>28873783

Whoops, didn't mean to quote you, Tsar

>>28873801
It ok also I be going soon I be back with another Rhodesian Bush War General Thread since it probably my most successful thread

>>28873674
Apparently not very.
>http://www.airsoftza.co.za/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3755&start=45#p33944

>>28873850

Alright, I'll definitely keep an eye out for the next thread, bro.

>>28873933

Well shit, that's disappointing. Would you shell out 600 bucks for the full gear?

>>28873783
I remember. It was short lived because command could deny they had anything to do with it and it was a relatively small number of people involved. Not the entire service adopting a new uniform.

>>28873976
Might be different War General Thread like Vietnam War or 30 Years War

>>28872714
>>28872734
What happens when Mugabe dies though?

>>28873995

Eh, still, it's just a camo pattern. They could do the same thing they did with CADPAT and just edit it slightly, only to rename it later.

>>28874014

Well, I like those threads too, so I'll still probably stop by.

>>28874047
Possibly endlessly Civil War

>>28874078
>>28874047

Yeah, pretty much. That is, until someone figures out a way to start a business there and have it secured by hiring a heavily armed security firm.

>>28874127
Well they could try Farming back in the day Rhodesians were hell ve farmers

>>28874149
Well I got to go now seen you guys tomorrows

>>28874172

See you mane. And yeah, farming could turn into a great business both in Africa and internationally as well.

>>28874149
>>28874199
Honestly have a hard time imagining the people being cohesive enough to do that. Unless someone already has some sort of Neo-Rhodesia planned it'll probably just be a civil war between different regions or peoples

>>28874258

Well, you gotta make it a profitable business somehow, so I'm sure there will be a lot of fighting.

>>28874048
It's kinda hard to spin Canada as a neonazi dreamland though.

How was this any different from ISIS?

>>28874547

I know it's a bait question, but Rhodesia was a former British colony and Rhodesians decided to have a white minority rule as most politicians in the parliament who were apparently worth a damn where white when they declared independence.

ISIS is just a ragtag group of Islamic extremists.

>>28874515

Eh, true.

>>28874930
Several hours later and I'm back so what this talk about ISIS?

>>28877086

This guy >>28874547 didn't know the difference between ISIS and Rhodesia.

>>28877130
Seriously? I would've compare them to ZANU

>>28877178

Right? And even then, ZANU was afro-centric marxist, which doesn't really have any similarities to radical Islam.

>>28877224
Yep

>>28877281

But yeah, I stayed up late to check out the FBI standoff in Oregon, but shit got boring real quick and I got college tomorrow. See you next time, familia.

Also, fuck it, I'll put on an open trip for once

>>28877303
Bye

I guess I be finding another theard. I start another thread tomorrow.
