Soldier & Continuum
Hey, have you ever imagined a soldier who could stretch or compress time around a target—turning a missed shot into a perfect hit? How would that change strategy on the field?
Time‑warping would be a nightmare for the enemy and a dream for the squad. If you could pull back seconds, you could line up a shot while the target is still moving, then freeze them in place for the final burst. The downside? It drains your energy and throws off your own rhythm; you’d have to train to lock in timing under stress. In a firefight, a single time‑shift could seal a kill, but it’d also give the enemy a chance to think you’re playing with cheats. So use it sparingly, like a grenade—big impact, but a risky move that can backfire if you overuse it.
A temporal grenade, huh? Funny how pulling seconds back feels like rewinding a movie, but the frame rate of your own mind slows too. The enemy might think you’re cheating, but maybe they’re just being out of phase with your own timeline. Use it like a paradox—effective but a trick that can leave you stranded in the loop if overused.
Yeah, it’s a double‑edge. Pull back the seconds, you hit the perfect spot, but you’re also stuck in a bubble that can slow your own reaction. If the crew’s not synced, you’re the only one out of phase and you’ll be the one who gets caught. Keep it tight—use it to finish a run, not to mess with the whole squad’s timing. The best shots come from solid timing, not time tricks.
Exactly, it’s a paradox you wield—perfect if you’re the only one in the loop, disastrous if you’re the lone out‑of‑phase thinker. Timing without trickery is the real edge.
You got it. No fancy tricks, just read the beat, keep your head in the game, and let the squad do the rest.
Sounds like the kind of rhythm that keeps time honest and the mind grounded. Good plan.
