It was from 1950 to 1953, and the maser was invented in 1953. I wouldn't call that early in the war.
In addition, I don't think that Charles fellow was from Korea.
Finally, the maser was, essentially, a microwave oven. Not an actually one, mind you, but it functioned the same. It sends down electromagnetic waves that make the target vibrate very fast, creating friction. This heats the target.
And as you said before, the laser they invented was nonlethal. I can't find too many uses for a nonlethal laser in this game that can't be filled in by something WWII technology.
The lasers we would probably use in this game will be optical lasers, which are visible and can be lethal. The first optical laser was invented in 1960.

Whatever
And besides, IT STILL WORKS AS A LASER, just a constant one. Rydon, you just hate me do you? I have a little time to do this every day and you just keep treating me like I'm on for 8 hours a day. I show you a simple solution and then you act like I am a ****ing retard. Problem with that is that, my I.Q. is WELL above 70.

Problem with that is that, my I.Q. is WELL above 70. Why would I hate you? I was just arguing. My school doesn't have a Debate Club or whatever, and I love to argue. And I don't see how I act like your on 8 hours a day; I just posted my response once I saw yours. I could say something about the IQ thing, but you obviously don't like to argue. |

Rydon, humaan, WD said we can use them.
Could you please stop arguing?

Rydon, humaan, WD said we can use them. Correct. I've also stated why, and nobody really bothered to argue with it. Simple lasers are allowed for Wildlifes. That's really not unfair unless somebody can provide me with a very good reason why they shouldn't have a simple energy attack. If they didn't, Hocotatians could exploit it furiously. |

They just seem a bit advanced in my opinion. Also, couldn't you classify fire and electricity as basic energy attacks?

Maybe lasers could be defeated by mirrors? Even cheap mirrors reflect about 95% of the light that hits it. So, a mirror might melt after being hit, but it'll still be able to reflect the attack back.
EDIT: I think we should approve Humaan's army now. The laser issue can be worked out later.
