April 2021 Migori County floods

The **April 2021 Migori County floods** is an event when Migori County were flooded in April 2021.

## Cause of flooding

Hundreds of families have been displaced by flooding in western Kenya over the last few days.

Kenya Red Cross (KRCS) said heavy rains caused devastation in Kakelo Kakoth sub-location in Migori county from 23 April 2021. KRCS reported around 200 households were affected, while Kenya media, quoting local officials, reported those 200 families as displaced. Flooding affected other areas of the county, with around 100 families displaced in Karapolo and West Kanyuor. Floods have also destroyed crops and roads in the area.

While heavy rain and flooding affects western parts of the country, drought conditions endure in north-eastern areas. NDTV in Kenya recently reported that thousands of households in Marsabit County are in need of food aid as a result.

Potomac flood of November 1877

Higher than the event in 1852 by several feet, this flood affected the whole length of the C&O Canal. Since Conococheague and Antietam Creeks were flooding as well, the worst damage was done to the middle of the canal. Damage totaled US$200,000 (1877 dollars). Navigation could not resume until the following April. A result of this flood was a telephone network being installed along the canal, which was, at the time, the longest telephone circuit in the world.

Great Vermont Flood of 1927

The **Great Vermont Flood of 1927** is a major flooding event in Vermont which occurred November 2-4, 1927. Following a very wet rainfall in the October, record rainfall starting on November. The U.S. Geological Survey estimated 53% of the state received more than six inches of rain, with the greatest recorded amount being 9.86 inches in Somerset, Vermont, caused rivers throughout the state to flood. The flood is considered the worst flood in Vermont, with the only comparison, being the 2011 Hurricane Irene.

The flood destroyed 1285 bridges, killed at least eighty-four people, and destroyed many buildings and infrastructure. Environmental historians attribute a number of possible causes for the extremity of the flooding, including deforestation, saturation of the soil, and the lack of living greenary because of the fall season.

2014 Cameron Highlands mud floods

The **2014 Cameron Highlands mud floods** took place in Cameron Highlands, Pahang, Malaysia on 5 and 6 November 2014. More than 20 houses in Ringlet town, Ringlet new village, Kampung Ulu Merah Ringlet and Bertam Valley are submerged in knee-deep flood waters. At least three people were killed while other five injured according to official reports. Electricity supply to the affected villages was inevitably cut off for several weeks. About 90 victims from 28 families were evacuated to relief centre in Ringlet. This was the second time that mud floods of this magnitude had ravaged the Bertam Valle since the 2013 mud floods. The mud floods had been largely attributed to illegal land clearing by foreign illegal immigrants who were involved in the rapidly expanding agricultural industry there. Pahang Sultan Ahmad Shah has orders to stop the illegal farming and there is a claimed of corruption involving the illegal land clearing.

2013 Southwest China floods

In early July 2013, much of China experienced heavy rainfall that led to widespread flooding. Sichuan Providence in southwestern China was the hardest hit. At least 50 people were killed as a result of the flooding and an estimated 2 million lives were disrupted.

## Floods and damage

Starting during the weekend of July 6–7, Southwest China experienced what was described as the heaviest rainfall in 50 years. The rainfall led to widespread flooding that destroyed bridges and houses, as well as a memorial for victims of the 2008 Sichuan earthquake. The rain also triggered multiple landslides that buried dozens of people.

Mountainous regions of Sichuan Providence were hardest hit. Qushan, the former county seat of Beichuan which was depopulated after the Sichuan earthquake, was submerged in 23 feet (7.0 m) of water. The site had been designated as a memorial to earthquake victims and was home to the Beichuan Earthquake Museum. On July 9, a bridge across the Tongkou River failed, sending six cars into the rushing waters. At least twelve people went missing as a result and are presumed dead. In Dujiangyan, a landslide buried 11 homes and as many as 40 people on July 10. Later in the day, additional landslides trapped more than 100 people in a tunnel between Dujiangyan and Wenchuan.

In Shanxi Province, twelve workers were killed when an unfinished mining building collapsed on July 9.

As of July 10, the storms had killed 50 people and disrupted the lives of two million people, according to Chinese state-run media.

1999 Vietnamese floods

The **1999 Vietnamese floods** affected Vietnam in late 1999 and were the worst floods the country had experienced in a century. The floods were caused by a series of storms that brought heavy rain to the central part of the country in October and November. The first storm to hit was Tropical Storm Eve on October 19 and the main event occurred from November 1-November 6.

In total, 595 people lost their lives and 55,000 were made homeless. The floods caused $290 million of damage to the region and caused a further $490 million of economic losses. It is estimated that 1.7 million people in the central Provinces of Vietnam were affected by the floods.

December 2021 Taraba floods

The **December 2021 Taraba floods** is an event when Taraba were flooded between 9 July and 16 July 2021.

## Cause of flooding

As many as 300 homes were damaged by severe flooding in Jalingo, Taraba State in North Eastern Nigeria after heavy rain from 09 July 2021, while heavy rain on 16 July swamped roads in Lagos, the country’s largest city.
Local media said as many as 4,000 people were displaced by the floods. Relief supplies have been distributed in affected areas.

Nigeria Hydrological Services Agency (NIHSA) said the floods ravaged several communities in Jalingo, the Taraba state capital. According to NIHSA, flooding struck after heavy rain overnight 09 to 10 July, adding that poor or lack of drainage systems, buildings erected within the flood paths aggravated the flood.

NIHSA also dismissed rumours the flooding was aggravated by the release of water from the Cameroonian Lagdo Dam built within the Cameroonian portion of River Benue, pointing out that areas upstream in Nigeria’s Adamawa State would have been flooded before any parts of Taraba.

NIHSA Director General, Clement Nze, said in a statement of 11 July that “at this period of the year, impoundment of water into the Lagdo Dam in Cameroon for hydropower generation is still in progress. Under normal circumstances, it is usually around the 3rd week of September that the Lagdo Dam reservoir approaches an elevation of 213m. Spillage of water can only take place once the reservoir level approaches 216m. Therefore, no release of water from Lagdo Dam ever took place.”

The Director General also warned of the possibility of most parts of the country experiencing a shorter, more intense rainy season this year.

Heavy rainfall in the south west of the country caused flooding in Lagos, Nigeria’s largest city, and some surrounding areas of Ogun State on 16 July 2021. Media reported roads flooded and images on Social Media showed flood water up to 50cm deep in some areas. There have been no reports of casualties or displacements, although the flooding has caused considerable damage to vehicles.

Ohio River flood of 1945

The 1945 flood of the Ohio River was the second-worst in Louisville, Kentucky history after the one in 1937 and caused the razing of the entire waterfront district of the neighborhood of Portland. Afterwards, flood walls were erected around the city to 3 feet (0.91 m) above the highest level of the '37 flood.
2000 Mozambique flood

The **2000 Mozambique flood** was a humanitarian disaster which occurred in February 2000 when the 260km/h Cyclone Elaine made landfall in Mozambique causing widespread flooding. Due to a slow reaction by the government and international aid agencies hundreds of people died and millions were made homeless and lost their livelihoods. Floodwaters peaked on March 1 at 8metres (26 feet).

California flood – January and March 1995

During the events of January and March 1995, over 100 stations recorded their greatest 1-day rainfalls in that station's history. The major brunt of the January storms hit the Sacramento River basin and resulted in small stream flooding primarily due to storm drainage system failures, though flooding affected nearly every part of the state. The Salinas River exceeded its previous measured record crest by more than 1.3 m (4.3 ft), which was within 30–60 cm (0.98–1.97 ft) of the reputed crest of the legendary 1862 flood. The Napa River set a new peak record, and the Russian and Pajaro rivers approached their record peaks. More than thirty people were killed and 5 were missing. The flood cost $1.8 billion.
North Sea flood of 1953

The **North Sea Flood of 1953** was a major natural disaster which affected the coastlines of the United Kingdom and Netherlands on the night of 31 January 1953 – 1 February 1953. Belgium, Denmark and France were also affected by flooding and storm damage.

A combination of a high spring tide and a severe storm caused a tidal surge of the North Sea in excess of 1.6 m which overwhelmed sea defences and caused extensive flooding.

1,835 people were killed in The Netherlands, mostly in the south-western province of Zeeland. 307 were killed in the United Kingdom, in the counties of Lincolnshire, Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex. Further loss of life, numbering more than 100, occurred on shipping in the North Sea.

## North Sea Flood in the United Kingdom

The North Sea Flood of 1953 was one of the largest natural disasters ever experienced in the UK. Over 1000 miles of coastline was damaged, and sea walls were breached, inundating 150,000 acres. Flooding forced 30,000 people to be evacuated from their homes, and 24,000 properties were seriously damaged.

In individual incidents, 38 died at Felixstowe in Suffolk when wooden prefabricated homes in the West End area of the town were flooded. In Essex, Canvey Island was inundated with the loss of 58 lives and another 37 died when the seafront village of Jaywick near Clacton was flooded.

The total death toll in the UK was 307.

## North Sea Flood in The Netherlands

In the Netherlands breaks in the dikes and seawalls killed 1,835 people and forced the evacuation of 70,000 more. Ten thousand animals drowned, and 4,500 buildings were destroyed.

## Response

In the UK a major investment was made in new sea defences, and the Thames Barrier programme was started to secure central London against a future storm surge.

In The Netherlands an ambitious flood defence system was conceived and deployed, called the Delta Works (Dutch: Deltawerken), designed to protect the mouth of the Scheldt.

## The future

The threat of another flood on the scale of 1953 remains potent, since the combination of events generating a massive storm surge could reoccur in normal climatic timescales. In addition, two risk factors could increase the likelihood, or the severity, of another incident. Firstly, the south-eastern part of the UK is gradually settling lower as the north-west lifts higher due to isostatic rebound after the disappearance of the glacial sheet from the last ice age. Secondly, sea level may rise as a result of climate change, which may also cause more frequent storms.

Flood barriers, improved weather forecasting, modern communications and sophisticated emergency services may help to reduce the potential loss of life from a future flood, but this must be balanced by the impact of higher population densities and, especially in the UK, by the decay of coastal defences since the 1950s improvements.
Great Flood of 1844

The Great Flood of 1844 is the biggest flood ever recorded on the Missouri River in terms of discharge.

The impact was not as great as subsequent floods because of the small population in the region at the time. The flood was particularly devastating since the region had little or no levees at the time.

Congress in 1849 passed the Swamp Act providing land grants to build stronger levees.

Among the hardest hit were the Wyandottes who lost 100 people in the diseases that occurred after the flood.

## Comparison to other big floods

Channeling and levee construction have altered how the floods have hit various areas along the Missouri River. Here's a comparison of the three big floods since the early 1800s.

* Great Flood of 1951 - The 1951 flood was the second biggest in terms of cubic feet/second discharge at 573,000 cubic feet/second. The 1951 crest on July 14, 1951, was almost two feet lower than the 1844 flood and three feet lower than 1993. However, the flood was the most devastating of all modern floods for Kansas City since its levee system was not built to withstand it. It destroyed the city's stockyards and forced the building of an airport away from the Missouri River bottoms.
* Great Flood of 1993 - The 1993 flood was the highest of any of the three but had the lowest discharge (541,000 c.f.s.). While the 1993 flood had devastating impacts elsewhere, Kansas City survived it relatively well because of levees improvements after the 1951 flood.

1936 Northeastern United States flood

The **1936 Northeast Flood** was a historic flood that occurred across the Northeastern United States in March of 1936. Due to the combination of a particularly precipitation heavy Winter and large amounts of rainfall in March, record-setting flooding caused severe damage across the region.

Record heights were recorded in many rivers, including the Connecticut River, which peaked at 37.6 feet in Hartford, the Merrimack River, the Pemigewasset River, and the Androscoggin River.

June 2011 Singapore floods

The **June 2011 Singapore floods** was a flood currently one of the worst floods ever in the Singapore history.

### Wednesday, 1 June 2011

Torrential rain caused flooding at the junction of Novena Square, a tree to fall elsewhere and claimed the life of one victim when a boy fell into a swollen drain along Whampoa.

Despite the drain being guarded by a railing, the boy is believed to have stepped through a break in the railing at the flooded junction of Martaban Road and Minbu Road. He fell into the submeuildings are due to a heavy rainfall directly into the basements and the buildings' internal drainage pumps unable to cope with the huge amount of water.rged drain, which is about 1.2m deep. The strong currents swept the boy away, causing him to drown.

### Sunday, 5 June 2011

A torrential downpour that lasted several hours early on Sunday morning triggered flash floods across several parts of the island. Senett Estate, Potong Pasir, MacPherson, Toa Payoh, Bukit Timah and Orchard were the areas hardest hit by the floods. Tanglin Mall, Forum Galleria and Traders Hotel were affected by the flood and partially flooded. St Regis Residences had its basement carparks flooded as well. Previous flood affected shopping malls in June 2010, Lucky Plaza and Liat Towers were not affected as flood barriers were activated at the start of the downpour although some shops were still partially affected.

Tanglin Mall and St Regis did not receive flood alerts from the PUB which was due to a technical glitch in the flood alert software, which PUB will rectify. PUB also explained the flooding to the b

After the flood, Vivian Balakrishnan, Minister for the Environment and Water Resources, asked for public feedback on possible danger spots during a flood.

2017 Penang floods

The **2017 Penang floods** is an event when Penang were flooded in 2017.

## Cause of flooding

At least 7 people have died and over 10,000 displaced after floods swept through the northern states of Penang and Kedah in peninsular Malaysia.

Torrential rain fell from 03 November, 2017. A weather station near Kepala Batas in Penang recorded 946 mm of rain between 03 and 06 November, with 458 mm of that total falling in 24 hours to 06 November. Wide areas of the state were also hit by strong winds.

As many as 7,412 people have been forced from their homes in Penang. The displaced are staying in 41 emergency centres set up by authorities. In the neighbouring state of Kedah, 3,839 people have evacuated their homes and are staying in 23 relief centres. At least 7 people have died, according to local media reports.

Penang Chief Minister of Penang, Lim Guan Eng said that some areas of Penang Island were under 3 or 4 metres of water. He described the flooding and storm as the worst in Penang’s history and said the storm was part of a weather system brought by Typhoon Damrey currently affecting parts of Vietnam.

Military personnel have been deployed to assist with rescues, evacuations and clean up operations. The Chief Minister said that, with help from the federal government, the situation was under control and at the moment there was no need to declare a state of emergency.

Malaysia suffered severe flooding from December 2014 to January 2015 which claimed 21 lives and displaced around 200,000 people.

Northern California and Western Nevada floods of February 1986

On February 11, a vigorous low pressure system drifted east out of the Pacific, creating a pineapple express that lasted through February 24 unleashing unprecedented amounts of rain on northern California and western Nevada. The nine-day storm over California constituted half of the average annual rainfall for the year. Record flooding occurred in three streams that drain to the southern part of the San Francisco Bay area. Extensive flooding occurred along the Napa and Russian rivers. Napa, north of San Francisco, recorded their worst flood to this time while nearby Calistoga recorded 736 mm (29.0 in) of rain in 10 days, creating a once-in-a-thousand-year rainfall event. Records for 24 hour rain events were reported in the Central Valley and in the Sierra Nevada. One thousand-year rainfalls were recorded in the Sierras. The heaviest 24-hour rainfall ever recorded in the Central Valley at 447 mm (17.6 in) occurred on February 17 at Four Trees in the Feather River basin. In Sacramento, nearly 254 mm (10.0 in) of rain fell in an 11-day period. System breaks in the Sacramento River basin included disastrous levee breaks in the Olivehurst and Linda area on the Feather River. Linda, about 65 km (40 mi) north of Sacramento, was devastated after the levee broke on the Yuba River's south fork, forcing thousands of residents to evacuate. In the San Joaquin River basin and the Delta, levees breaking along the Mokelumne River caused flooding in the community of Thornton and the inundation of four Delta islands. Lake Tahoe rose 15 cm (5.9 in) as a result of high inflow. The California flood resulted in 13 deaths, 50,000 people were evacuated and over $400 million in property damage. Three thousand residents of Linda joined in a class action lawsuit, Paterno v. State of California, which eventually reached the California Supreme Court in 2004. The California high court affirmed the District Court of Appeal's decision that said California was liable for millions of dollars in damages.

2012 Padang flood

The **2012 Padang Flood** was a flood disaster that hit several areas in the city ​​of Padang, West Sumatra on May 31 , 2012. This disaster was caused by heavy rain accompanied by lightning and strong winds that occurred in the afternoon. This disaster was also exacerbated by the falling of a number of trees and landslides at several points in the city of Padang.
Cymbrian flood

The **Cymbrian flood** (or **Cimbrian flood**) was, according to certain Roman accounts, a large-scale incursion of the sea in the region of the Jutland peninsula in the period 120 to 114 BCE, resulting in a permanent alteration of the coastline with much land lost.

Supposedly as a result of this flood, the Cimbri migrated south and, together with the Ambrones and Teutons, came into conflict with the Romans, precipitating the Cimbrian War (113 to 101 BCE). The contemporary Greek geographer Strabo, though sceptical, describes the flood and its consequences thus:

> As for the Cimbri, some things that are told about them are incorrect and others are extremely improbable. For instance, one could not accept such a reason for their having become a wandering and piratical folk as this that while they were dwelling on a peninsula they were driven out of their habitations by a great flood-tide; for in fact they still hold the country which they held in earlier times; and they sent as a present to Augustus the most sacred kettle in their country, with a plea for his friendship and for an amnesty of their earlier offences, and when their petition was granted they set sail for home; and it is ridiculous to suppose that they departed from their homes because they were incensed on account of a phenomenon that is natural and eternal, occurring twice every day. And the assertion that an excessive flood-tide once occurred looks like a fabrication, for when the ocean is affected in this way it is subject to increases and diminutions, but these are regulated and periodical.
>
>

Researchers such as Jürgen Spanuth (1907–1998) have sought to push back the date of the Cymbrian flood by more than a millennium, severing its historical links with the wanderings of the Cimbri and Teutons and linking it instead with the Invasions of the Sea Peoples]of the late 13th and early 12th centuries BCE, driven from their northern homelands to attack the settled kingdoms of the Mediterranean.

Animal Magic

**Animal Magic: The Caretakers of Magic**

Animal Magic is obviously Magic involving animals. Using this magic, you can communicate with animals, and if you are advanced enough, turn into **your spirit animal/zodiac animal.** For example, a Scorpio could turn into a Scorpion because that's their zodiac. It takes many years of studying Animal magic though. (About **3** years)

**The Problem with Animal Magic**

Sometimes, you really don't wanna hear what crap a animal has been talking about you. And, if your animal Magic turns you into a smaller animal like a mouse, then HAH, you're bound to get eaten. Many animal Magic users suggest focusing on Turing into small but dangerous animals, such as snakes. Then, you can still be small and mighty, but with more mighty.

Eastern China flood of 1991

In the summer of 1991, continuous, heavy rainfall in Eastern China caused rivers and water loggings to overflow and flood the area, leading to the Chinese government requesting international aid.

## Background

Large amounts of rainfall beginning on the 18th of May quickly led areas of eastern China to begin overflowing with water; however, flooding reports in the area had begun to be officially addressed around late June. Specifically, the Huai, Chu, and Yangtze rivers are credited with the main flooding that resulted in the Anhui, Jiangsu, and Henan provinces taking the most damage. The Chinese government initially sent out soldiers and troops to help with evacuation and flood relief efforts, but with the number of homes and acres of crops destroyed increasing steadily, the Chinese government turned to other countries, requesting for aid in flood relief.

On September 3, 1991, the UN Department of Human Affairs (now known as the [United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs) announced that the death toll was 556 in the Anhui province, 260 in the Jiangsu province, and 94 in the Henan province. In late January of the next year, the New York Times reported that the death toll was approximately 3,000.

Chicago flood

The **Chicago Flood** began on April 13, 1992 when a hole was punched in the bottom of the Chicago River causing a leak which eventually flooded much of the Loop. Workers on the Chicago River were putting in new pilings when one of them punched a car-sized hole through the bottom of the river into an abandoned railway tunnel used in the early twentieth century to transport coal and goods. Workers attempted to plug the hole with rocks and mattresses to no avail.

The water flooded into the basements of several Loop office buildings and retail stores. The city quickly evacuated the Loop and financial district in fear that electrical wires could short out. Trading at both the Chicago Board of Trade and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange ended in mid-morning as water seeped into their basements.

It took three days before the flood was cleaned up enough to allow business to begin to resume and cost the city an estimated 1.95 billion dollars. The Army Corps of Engineers flew up mine divers from Kentucky to work on sealing the hole.
North Sea flood of 1962

The **North Sea flood of 1962** was a natural disaster affecting mainly the coastal regions of Germany and in particluar the city of Hamburg in the night from February 16 to February 17, 1962. A European windstorm with peak wind speeds of 200 km/h pushed water into the Deutsche Bucht, leading to a water surge the dykes could not withstand. Breaches along the coast and the rivers Elbe and Weser led to widespread flooding of huge areas. In Hamburg, on the river Elbe, but a full 100 km away from the coast, the residential area of Wilhemburg was most affected. In total, the homes of about 60,000 people were destroyed, and the death toll amounted to 315.
2013 North India floods

**Uttarakhand floods** in 2013 has resulted in heavy damage to property and building in the state and death toll was more than 58. As the state has several pilgrimage centers and tourist places, more 58,000 tourists were stranded in various places for more than two days.

## Cause

Uttarakhand state, which is full of forests, hill ranges and snow covered peaks received more than 340 mm rains on single day, which caused heavy floods in various parts of State.

## Death and damage

Landslides in various parts of state damaged several houses and structures and killing people who got trapped. More than 164 houses collapsed either due to heavy rain or due to landslide. More than 58 people were killed in the state due to flood and landslides.

2016 European floods

In late May and early June 2016 extreme flooding began after several days of heavy rain in central Europe, mostly Germany and France, but also Austria. Among others, the German states of Bavaria, Hesse, Rhineland-Palatinate, Baden-Württemberg, and North Rhine-Westfalia were affected. Also there was severe flooding in France. Beginning at river Neckar, also Danube, Rhine and their tributaries were affected by high water and flooding along their banks. 9 people were killed so far.

Michigan flood – March 1904

flooding was more significant along the Grand, Saginaw, Kalamazoo, and River Raisin river basins than the St. Joseph and Huron River basins. In Lansing, it was the worst flood in the previous 135 years of its history. Many dams were either undermined or swept away. Kalamazoo saw two square miles of flooding during this event.

It was also considered the most destructive flood in Grand Rapids history. The Grand River went above bankfull on the night of March 24, rising slowly for the next four days. It broke the previous high-water mark by over 60 cm (2.0 ft), and was considered a once in 100 year flood. Over one-half of the population on the west side of the river was inundated. On the east bank of the river, numerous factories went underwater. There was one casualty. Damages totaled US$1.8 million (1904 dollars). To the left is an image showing the flooding in Battle Creek.
MG 14

The **Parabellum MG 14** was a 7.92 mm caliber World War I machine gun built by Deutsche Waffen und Munitionsfabriken. It was a redesign of the Maschinengewehr 08 machine gun (itself an adaptation of the Maxim gun) system intended for use on aircraft and zeppelins. It used a toggle action that broke upwards rather than downwards, the opposite way to the MG 08, making for a much more compact receiver. The fusee spring was replaced with an internal spring design, the breech block was completely different and the spent cartridges dropped out the bottom of the receiver, rather than being ejected forward through a hole under the breech from the receiver. There appears to be no action or receiver parts interchangeable with the MG 08. The MG 08's belt-style ammunition feed was enclosed in a drum, the recoil casing was lightened and the cooling jacket was modified for air- instead of water-cooling. The rate of fire was 700 rounds/minute. The belt was reduced to 30 mm in width.

An MG 14 was used in the early development of the German version of the gun synchroniser by Anthony Fokker. The MG 14 was used with the first version of the pioneering Fokker *Stangensteuerung* synchronizer on the five **Fokker M.5K/MG** pre-production prototypes for the Fokker E.I. However, the limited supplies of the weapon were more urgently needed for observers in reconnaissance aircraft and defensive gunners aboard Zeppelins and heavier-than-air bombers and it was reserved for flexible mounts where its combination of light weight and high rate of fire were most useful. The weapon was also temperamental when used on the M.5K/MG, as noted by Otto Parschau.

The MG 14 and subsequent MG 14/17 did make one important contribution to the fixed forward-firing LMG 08 and LMG's 08/15 guns, in that their 30mm wide cloth ammunition belt was compatible with those weapons, The fixed forward-firing guns used fixed ammunition feed guides and judging by surviving photographs, the belts were used exclusively by the *Deutsche Luftstreitkräfte* for all fixed forward-firing guns. The belts can be readily identified by two grommets (instead of three for the wider MG 08 and MG 08/15 belts used by ground forces) and the lack of extended brass tab (also used by the MG 08 and MG 08/15 ground guns). This not only reduced weight and bulk but it also allowed for much lighter and smaller empty belt chutes, which came out of all LMG 08's and LMG 08/15's and led down into storage bins in the aircraft. At least three versions survive, a water cooled, an air cooled and a 14/17 version with a 3x telescopic sight.

Kord

The **Kord-12.7 mm** heavy machine gun is a Russian design that entered service in 1998 replacing the older NSV machine gun. Externally the weapon resembles the NSV; however, the internal mechanism has been extensively reworked, changing from a horizontally pivoting breech block to a rotating bolt design. Additionally the gas system has been changed and the muzzle baffle redesigned. These changes give the weapon reduced recoil compared with the NSV, allowing greater accuracy during sustained fire.

# Development

The catalyst for the development of the weapon was a complete lack of any heavy machine guns in construction at that time in the Russian Federation. Prior to the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the weapon that had functioned as the heavy machine gun was the NSV, or "Utes" or "Utjos" ("утёс", meaning *one lonely cliff* in Russian, this name was its designation during development) machine gun. The main production centre for the NSV was located in what is now Kazakhstan.

The Russian Degtyarev bureau was given the job of producing an updated version of the weapon chambered in the 12.7×108mm cartridge, which could be used for support, mounted on vehicles or in an anti-aircraft capacity. All variants of the weapon are also available chambered in the .50 BMG (12.7×99mm NATO) cartridge for export sales.

The weapon employs new construction, and consequently is significantly lighter than its predecessor. The firing mechanism is very rugged, and is capable of a greater rate of fire and significantly less recoil. Because a new barrel made of a high-tech alloy minimizes distortion and drop, accuracy has increased tremendously over previous Soviet machine guns. Unlike its predecessor, it may be fired from a bipod — a rather unusual feature for 12.7 mm/.50 caliber heavy machine guns. Its relatively light weight and lesser recoil allows stronger soldiers to move the gun around without assistance.

# Variants

* **6P49**: Baseline variant for vehicle mounting.
* **6P50**: Basic infantry version.
* **6P50-1 (6P57)**: 6T19 Bipod-mounted infantry version. Bipod provides ±15° range of traverse.
* **6P50-2 (6P58)**: Infantry variant.
* **6P50-3 (6P59)**: Infantry version on a 6U16 multipurpose mount. Casing ejection is to the right side.
* **6P51**: Co-axial version with left-hand feed system and forward casing ejection.

# Remote weapon stations

* 6C21 is a Russian remote weapon station using Kord machine gun or PKMT machine gun.

# Combat history

The Kord machine gun was used by the Russian forces in 1999–2000 during the Second Chechen war and in 2008 during the Russo-Georgian War. It later saw action in the War in Donbass and in the Syrian Civil War. 6P67, 6P68, 6P69 versions entered service in 2019.

**Overview**

Games is a channel in Magicrew which is all about talking about games. There isn't much notable about this channel as it generally leads to decent conversation, however it has gotten its fair share of beautiful events and dramas. There are many games which are talked about in this channel, for example there has been extensive talk about the Dark Souls games in this channel. However, games aren't the only things that have been discussed in this channel, ironically, for example this channel has been the birthplace of an amazing phrase said by Major Jackson ("Gotta admit vaati timberiu, the most gamer thing I have seen from you is providing lore about sex at 8am")

Chaos Magic

**Chaos Magic is a very powerful magic type and it branched off from poof magic, making the two magic types have relations and similarities. It is also one of the hardest types of magic to learn.**

**Introduction**

Chaos magic is a difficult type of magic. It can do a lot of strange things, like creating magic weapons, making explosions, and even having it's own strange language called 🕈︎✋︎☠︎☝︎👎︎✋︎☠︎☝︎💧︎ (WingDings).

Notable People Who use Chaos Magic: Victim/Jevil

Chaos Statuses: Chaos God, owner of the Chaos Staff
Poof Magic

**Poof magic is the first kind of emoji magic ever to exist. It also is the base of Chaos Magic, a very fun, scary, and hard kind of magic to learn.**

**Introduction**

Poof magic has the basic things that witches could probably use. They can 'Poof' items in and out of existence, edit existing items, and cast spells.

Notable people who use Poof Magic: Elisia Tribio, Vienna Sukola, Aurora Nightice

Emoticon: (∩•ಎ•)⊃━☆ﾟ.\*

**Basics**

Poof magic is pretty basic in poofing terms, but the spells and enchantments are a whole other animal. To cast a spell using poof magic, you add 'POOF!' to the end of your sentence. Like if you were to poof a clock into existence, you'd say: 'Poof an alarm clock into existence! POOF!' And you'd do the opposite to poof an item OUT of existence. 'Poof this alarm clock out of existence! POOF!' All magic must have a downside, and with poof magic, it's **Word Truth Syndrome.**

**Word Truth Syndrome**

**￼**Word Truth Syndrome kinda explains itself. If you overuse poof magic, whatever you say has a 50/50 chance of coming through whether you meant it or not. If you do get this syndrome, it's best to talk to an experienced Healing Mage.

**Spells & Enchantments**

As I said before, Spells and Enchantments are a whole other animal in poof magic. To cast a spell, it would be like this: 'I cast a spell so this banana stays unpeeled for 24 hours! POOF!' It's important to state how long, because the timing is what seperates it from enchantments. Enchantments are ean everlasting property about the item. A spell is a temporary property. And, if you overuse this aspect of poof magic, you have a 50/50 chance of casting the enchantment or spell on yourself.
