#1 This is a very disturbing video, at least for me. Incomprehensible.

#3 It has been a long time since I've played Sim City, but I don't recall this ever happening.
Perhaps they have installed some extra downloadable content.

#4 I believe its the Pellopanesian Wars DLC. Totally worth the Drachma.

#6 See something similar?

Notice the bracing. Pretty standard stuff. Think phalanx but 2.5" hose (or whatever the metric is) at full pressure instead of Sarissa Pikes. Why the police thought they could just shield sweep this opponent is a mystery, and a truly hostile opponent wouldn't have let them off the hook cuz they got owned.

#7 Got to do that once, but we used two hoses. I got picked as the reacher, so I had a hose on each side, and with the bracers we looked like a Rugby scrum. As the reacher, I was to call order, chant advance cadence, and ultimate shut the valve off.

Absolute rush so long as I remembered the longer it took, the more fatigued the nozzle operators become, and it only take an instant slip to lose that grip. Then not only is there a rogue line loosing its way around the ranks, my arm could be in harms way if that happened.

Instructor said something classical like, "Train like this is a real fire, so if you come across this fire you can remember this training."

#10 I think this video is from 2020 or perhaps even earlier.
