Orks are definitely the only species this would ever work for.

Although I'm surprised they don't just make a gun that fires smaller guns that also fire bullets which themselves fire bullets... that explode.

You should check out Enter the Gungeon.

Everyone should check out Enter the Gungeon.

Its easy for us rougelike enjoyer's to forget but the average person isn't looking for entertainment where they die over and over slowly learning enemy patterns and unlocking new stuff. It takes a special kind of masochistic challenge chasing nerd to get something out of these kinds of games.

Choppa shoota’ or shoota’ choppy?

Mork said iz good, make it work!

You would need an equal and opposite angular momentum at the back of the chainsaw otherwise it will just rotate upwards and loop around in circles.

So a second chainsaw in the opposite direction?

Nah, second chain pointing forward rotating the opposite direction, with the teeth facing forward.

You can balance it adjusting the rocket nozzle

just enough rotational velocity to counter gravity trying to pull the nose of the missile down though. and also the centripetal momentum of the chain would act like a gyro stabilizer insuring that it remains nominally upright.

You'll need more mass in those teeth.

Depleted uranium chain saw teeth.

The real one deploys blades that cause the missile to spin at very high speeds before it slices through its targets like butter without an explosion

Every 40k author is tearing up their manuscript right now and starting afresh,

...the screaming chainsaw missile tore through the mid-morning air, the astartes all laughed as it sliced though half a squad of guardsmen as they ate breakfast...

Serious Sam 4 has a secret RPC weapon you can find if you preordered the game or enable it with cheats. It's as broken as it is fun.

That’s actually a good idea for a new fallout weapon

I genuinely don't think that would make a difference. No matter which version of those you get hit by a direct strike is going to turn you and your immediate surroundings into salsa. May as well save the construction costs.

Fun concept but if only starting a gas powered chainsaw were that easy...

You see, if you fix the chainsaw ripcord to the bazooka and then fire it you can use the propulsion pull to also start the chainsaw during launch

Just remember to clean the fuel lines during maintenance as it can separate when left for too long, and press the primer button the correct number of times while loading, and then always store it upright.

You should be able to replace the heavy engine with a turbine mounted in the rocket engine.

Only if they're battery-powered. Carrying enough fuel to feed the saw as well as the rocket would be too much

I'm confused about the spyware free part. I'm not clocking on either link. But cAn you explain that one?

The link have question mark in the middle and a unique identifier behind it. When a web browser requests the website from youtube, it will look at that identifier and know that link was generated by a specific user. If you request the video while logged in then google knows that those two accounts are somehow communicating. If over time two youtube accounts are communicating bidirectionally then they are probably friends. If communication is going only one way then it might be an influencer account.

Removing that identifier will remove information about who sent you the link.

I'm all for it as long as it can make a conventional cut and a Humboldt cut. I'm assuming it can make plunge cuts.

2

I think the propelling force of the rocket would far overpower the cutting power of the chainsaw, making a sharp, pointy object instead more useful.

And at least make the rockets hovering, like in the shortfilm Ruin.
