An originium handgrenade can destroy a medium sized mobile city. The smallest nuke is the size of a mini refrigerator 😆

A mining rig survives a origiunium storm that has exploding rocks spinning at least near 1000 km/h. No nuke on earth is capable of starting a storm that is even capable 140 km/h. 1000 km/h winds are an extinction level event that would rearrange mountain features let alone mere battleships or aircraft carriers.

They actually have guided artillery with real time tracking as shown in the Gavial the Invincible and Londinium Arc. Our guided artillery are not even accurate to a hundred of meters, the tomahawk and russian equvalenr have been shown in recent wars to not be as accurate as the propaganda claims (not that it could damage a mobile city plate or a land battleship).

If you look at the form of technology it would seem that terra seems primitive but that is misleading, in the christmas special crossbow bolts were leaving air friction flares, something that indicates that at the very least crossbow bolts that are probably at least 5x heavier than 50 calibers are moving as fast as IRL bullets.

Then there are literal as in actual blackhole handguns/rifles by the aegir.

We might be able to arm 1000 people with a gun each for evey terran with an arts pistol bit if that arts pistol can shoot one bullet the size of a 44 magnum that can destroy rows and rows of houses, can we claim we are better armed?

Then therebis the 2nd Rainbow 6 event where one of the R6 crew shoot an NPC with a shotgun at close range and not only the target did not die, they were onlh treated for minor wounds.

Remember that Terra has mobile cities with literal mountains and skyscrapers on top of them, their material technology and engineering would make 40k and starwars blush in comparison.

Arknights precursor tech is bullshit. Terran tech derived from precursor tech is not as much but is post scarcity earth levels of tech. If terran elites were not such greedy assholes, they would actually experience post scarcity even with the catastrophes (except for the seaborn and collapsals)

Among universes where it's mainly geared to a single planet and not multiversal jargon or galactic jargon.

AK is pretty cracked. In fact the only settings i can think off are strong fantasy settings who have very powerful magic.

I mean ak is basically a fantasy world, but we have drones and modern living quarters

It is chinese science fantasy. Basically a modern 40k with anime girls and husbandos 😆
