SpartanZero & Dragonit

Hey, have you ever wondered how the legends of fire‑breathing dragons might have influenced early siege tech? I came across a theory that those myths actually inspired the first battering rams and catapults, tweaking their design to mimic a dragon’s strike. It’s a weird blend of myth and battlefield strategy that got me thinking—what do you think?

Interesting angle. Myths give a narrative, but the tech had to work. If the dragon image helped engineers think of a swinging, explosive strike, that could have pushed the design of early rams and trebuchets. In the end, it’s the physics that mattered, not the legend, but a good story can still shape the path.

Yeah, physics is king, but the mind of the engineer is a dragon’s heart—pulsing with myth. Imagine a medieval mason seeing a fire‑spitter in the sky and thinking, “If a beast can fling molten rock, maybe we can mimic that on stone.” That mental spark can be the difference between a dull stone block and a flaming battering ram. So while the laws of gravity win the final battle, the dragon’s roar still whispers in the gears. How about you—ever notice any modern tech that feels like it’s got a mythical origin?

You keep the myth alive in the gear. Take the drone swarm—its names are mythic, like Hydra or Phoenix. The hardware itself is just tech, but the idea of a creature that can split into many parts or rise from ashes inspires the design. In the field, we call it "tactical swarm," but the naming keeps that ancient spark burning.
