I think I was on a Mac G4 400
-
I've converted to Capitalism for it.
-
Lack of OSX support and a little personal disappointment with regard the CMBB Guide made me left.
I'm here to see if this new iteration in WWII hook me as the first installments of CM.
-
And your problem is what, exactly? I refer you to my previous post.
No problem. Just kidding. Relax.
-
When did I say that? I said in my debrief that I would call it a tactical victory, what's the problem?
Here are the facts:
I lost 5 tanks... had 10 killed and 3 wounded.
I also held the field at the end of the game and had a toe hold on the objective.
Warren, lost 5 tanks, 4 TDs, and 2 armored cars.
He had 41 casualties (24 KIA, 15 WIA, 2 MIA) and except for his infantry which were non-players, he was routed from the field.
I don't give a rat's ass of the repurcussions operationally, this was a quick battle stand alone game, not a game in a campaign.
So sue me, yes I think I won the game. Lighten up man.
I propose a game feature consisting in automatically sending the AARs for QBs to James Crowley e-mail, so he can asses for us the REAL results of every battle.

Antipodal. Winter is rapidly approaching, but then so is the RWC. All in all, things are pretty good.
You?
Fairly good too. Waiting for CM coming back to Mac.
-
Hi, Jon.
How are things in the antipodes?
-
Yeah. When it comes to armored vehicles my guess would be the Stug. For arms in general I'd say the Pak 75 or 88 (if I get to include the AAA ones as well).
I remember reading somewhere that the guns that killed most tanks in the Eastern Front was the 105mm field guns and howitzers. Easy to believe giving them were far more ubiquitous than other kind of guns and in early years (and even in late years) of the war very few AFVs could withstand a shell of that size without at least suffering a M-Kill. Even a near miss could have easily dispatched a T-26 or BT.

Hi, Ales.
¿Message too short? What is this, the anti-Tweeter?
-
Would it run on my iPad? Is the only device my wife let me use in the bathroom.
-
Law?... Law???
What's that?
-
I think returning in April's Fool Day is a good enough joke.
I'm actually drooling at the eventuality of kicking your asses... again... 9 years later.
I guess most asses will not be as firm as then, but the pleasure will be the same.
-
Yes, it is.
-
I'm fairly old. I had three membership numbers, but somehow in this last forum iteration I recovered the first one.
-
Yeah... And you already know almost everything that is in English...
I suppose that I should make a bilingual version some day.
-
"The Game of Rat and Dragon" reminiscences anyone?
-
Both. I saw it English with Spanish subtitles.
Are you asking for the Vader Voice Enhancement Device thing?
-
Great movie. Maybe the best I've seen this year, even including Wall•E.
My bet for next one: some kind of "Arkham Asylum". Two Faces isn't dead, they are just pretending Harvey Dent is to protect his image. We've seen the Scarecrow still kicking at the beginning. No idea who will play the Joker in that one.
And, yes, I got my old nick back.
-
I miss Mac support...
I got stuck not being able to play older CMs in my G5, nor the new CM...
Well, the setting doesn't attract me much, but neither did WWII at great extent before CM.

It seems that it is a misquotation too:
Source."People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf."Alternative: "We sleep safely at night because rough men stand ready to visit violence on those who would harm us."
Notes: allegedly said by George Orwell although there is no evidence that Orwell ever wrote or uttered either of these versions of this idea. They do bear some similarity to comments made in an essay that Orwell wrote on Rudyard Kipling, when quoting from one of his poems.
"Yes, making mock o' uniforms that guard you while you sleep" - Rudyard Kipling (Tommy)
"I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, then questions the manner in which I provide it." - Jack Nicholson (A Few Good Men)
Alternative: "We sleep soundly in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm." - Winston Churchill (miscellaneous quotation, no date)

Imperial Grunt,
you have a misquotation in your signature.
Don't worry, lot of people thinks it is true that Orwell wrote that.
The internet can't be wrong, right? </font>
