Australia Gets The Peng Challenge Trifecta
rune replied to Speedy's topic in Combat Mission: Afrika Korps
Lars, Lars, Lars 1. In the age of sail mayhaps, but in case you didn't notice, modern warships haven't used sails in the last 100 years. I hadn't realized you were as old as Boo and joebob 2. The modern definition of ship is: A ship usually has sufficient size to carry its own boats, such as lifeboats, dinghies, or runabouts. A rule of thumb saying (though it doesn't always apply) goes: "a boat can fit on a ship, but a ship can't fit on a boat". 3. Again, we were talking about the scenario at Salerno. Show me ANYWHERE that a submarine in the Med gave gunfire support. 4. Even Berli, an ex-jarhead, knows the difference. We are still trying to teach him the correct definition of "SOS". 5. At your earlist convience, please use your GPS to give me your exact co-ordinates. Will see if I can collect on a few old debts and send a harpoon your way, or maybe a Tomahawk if there are any left. 6. Ever notice you never see Emry and Dorosh in the same place. Also notice the same first name. Co-incidence? Rune [ October 26, 2004, 10:13 AM: Message edited by: rune ] -

This way it is a slow painful death, by butter cookie, it is kind of like reading a post from Joebob about himself, or any post from Seanachai where he searches for a mortal enemy. Nidan1, you repeated what an Aussie said, and didn't ever bother to correct him. You know, Australia, where mumbling is considered a high art form of communications. Australia, where a bleat from a sheep sends the residents into a mating frenzy. Australia, where their new ship purchase was an LST from WWII. Australia, the only country New Zealand could invade and win, but even they don't want it. I blame it on your up-bringing to Knighthood. Obviously the *boot* was not applied enought. Rune -

You get a butter cookie. Now why did you call cruiser and battleship support "boats"? Rune -

Yes, Nidan1, it was the Shinano. For the other half of the butter cookie, which submarine sank her, and why did she sink so fast? Rune -

lars , You incredibally mis-informed pillock. 1. Why on Berli's earth would you defend Nidan1 or Speedy? You didn't have enough alcohol this weekend, did you? 2. Since the above said battle takes place at Salerno, show me any proof that would pass the Emry's standard, that an American submarine, in the Med, at a shore [Not Pauly, you can sit down bauhaus ] landing, conducted bombardment of the German counter-attack. Oh, and the Salerno mentioned, no, it was NOT a butter cookie. 3. The jury is still out on Mister Emry's knowledge of things naval, not counting lint. is open to debate. for example, ,what was the largest carrier sunk by a submarine during WWII? Rune -

Naval gunfire comes from a ship, NOT a boat. Bah! back to grog school for you, may I suggest enrolling in the Emry's 100 Steps to Grogdom? What next, you going to call Marines grunts? Lady Moraine thank you for trying to enlighten the masses...but with him, it is a lost cause. Rune -

boats? I think rune should not be blamed then, I don't use them. Rune -
Guys, Way too early for bones of any type. The engine is still being coded, and Charles' brain in the jar has its nutrient fluid. Asking for bones will not make them appear. When it is time, the mad one himself will post them. Rune

Is it too late to point out that the Pommies [as in 37mm] are just Australians who haven't taken the trip yet? Rune Holder of the Famed Scroll of NDA -
Thanks Jon, interesting information! Rune

1. It doesn't say they didn't jam, it says there were no MAJOR breakdowns. 2. Barrels were changed every hour in the test firing, how often were they changed at Somme? Either way the gun is down during that time. Interesting article none the less. Rune

Boo, you Joebob want-a-be, What part of Matt is working on it, confused you? Distracted by the glint off his head mayhaps? Matt or Joebob's, it matters not. Being ex_Navy, I have a few connections left. I am contacting them now about a 688 class, with a Mark 48 and something about visiting a cruise ship. Can't you just picture Nidan1 hanging off the stern of the ship as it slowly sinks? last, Mace, quit with the sheep and drop me an email. Rune -

hey Garden Gnome, aka Seanachai, You never replied to my email... was it your normal drunkeness, or has the worse possible thing happened, and you are actually listening to Joebob and auto-deleting my email? And since you mock the scroll of NDA, I have no choice but to tell you that CMX2 will fature the ________ and the ___________, but don't forget about the _________ in the battle of ___________. Now, I must go back to my discussion with Charles [name bolded since he is a brain in a jar, which is more then this lot]. Rune -
Originally posted by Joe Shaw: Oh isn't this special. Mister joebob "the rules don't apply to me" Shaw is going to tell us about the rules. The same person who took away my right of first refusal and took a serf because he was a marine and I was navy. A Fey and Bah! to you Joebob. I haven't seen waffling like that since that other thread came into existence. Ever consider running for President, Joebob? I don't think there is a "too old" clause. Rune
