  1. It is all about attitudes and perceptions, both sides of this "argument"(for lack of a better word) seem to feel that their perception of the game is valid and also seem to take the attitude that a opposing view is "hostile" to their perception. I can almost understand this if we were talking about political or religious ideologies....but this is a GAME we are talking about....50-60 bucks isn't something to sneeze at in this economy but seriously some of you might want to examine your priorities....
  2. No flying monkeys!!! Please fix or do Sumfink!!
  3. I can shoot flamethrowers in short halts, but only after eating chili...
  4. I'd love to play a game if you want to send a setup. I warn you though, you are really going to have a hard time losing to me...I'm that bad
  5. My head hurts trying to follow this thread Are we still talking about how hard CMBN is or have we morphed to whose country has the biggest/best twig and berries? In regards to the "winningness" of the game, I'm downright horrible at it but I really enjoy the feeling that I've used good tactics no matter what the outcome. Kind of a zen thing I know, but it is in the doing that I find the enjoyment.
  6. Since hardly anyone pays attention to Joe or Hans the buck private, but notices when the plt leader buys it, I gonna go with the the bias theory...except of course, in the case of MY games, since obviously the game has it out for ME
  7. How enjoyable CM is against another human The AI is fun but nothing beats the sheer unpredictability of the human melon. I had also forgotten the enjoyment of PBEM, I like the waiting, it adds to the "nail biting" factor. Thanks again Battlefront.
  8. I'm old CMx1 player, coming back for CMBN. I'm looking for some PBEM games, any size any side any kind I'm just this side of hideous but I do enjoy the challenge. I'm getting a hip replacement in a couple of weeks so I really won't be able to do much more than play Send me a setup if you are interested. Thanks Alex
  9. Tis a fair cop, the devil is always in the details..... However, I will not just SOD Off, I want a game and I'll shlepp arounfd this dump until I can find someone menial enough (who has the bloody game) to challenge...How about DLaurier? He seems to have a healthy enough anal fixation?
  10. "Still here? Damn. Very well, if you must post, try to show some wit and vinegar. Challenge someone. Operative word is ONE. Single one person out and construct a creative taunt to entice them to the field of battle. Anything less will be met with scorn, derision and more scorn… and then more derision. We believe that if something’s worth doing, it’s worth overdoing. Don’t bother the Olde Ones or the Knights or even the squires, for that matter. Challenge either an SSN like yourself, or a serf." Alrighty then, How 'bout YOU Radley? You seem like just the kind of annoying scofflaw I would dearly love to take to the lists...that is unless your status is so gawd-awful stratospheric that you can't be bothered to joust with the likes of me. Mind you, don't take the the low post numbers as a sign of weakness, I've been around these parts reading your drivel since the bloody inception of the Peng Thread, back in the hallowed Mists of Time.... So bring it Boo....
  11. If I recon with infantry, there is a MG42 waiting. If I recon with armor, there is a PAK 75 waiting. If I assault with both, both are waiting, with artillery support. Any shot that does not kill a Sherman outright will invariably knock out the main gun or immobilize it, or both.
