OK, K.J., I'm sure you're just dying to tell us, what was the outcome of your battle with Titan? Jim R.

What I want to know is how Jason C finds the time to post these mini-thesis's of his? And by the way, despite having taken the piss out of you in the past your post was most impressive and informative. So when people like me from time to time get stuck into you, please perservere as I'm sure there are plenty out there that do appreciate your labour of love. Regards Jim R.

If someone throws a crumpled up piece of newspaper at that person's nose from below, it will hit the underside of the nose and deflect into the area of the person's mouth. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Is this the grog style answer to the shot trap question? regards Jim R.

'Tis amazing to see John Howard & Kim Beasley get on so well on this bulletin board despite their diametrically opposed political views. Shame how things change when you put them both into Parliament House and things invariably degenerate into a schoolboy style slanging match. Regards Jim R.

Hey Jarmo. All you need is the Austin Powers Bren Gun Carrier to go with that psychaedelic sky and you'd have one really GROOOOVY game on your hands. Regards Jim R.

Hmmmm... the plot thickens. And both felines are obviously very good at playing Combat Mission. Where do you find women like that? Regards Jim R.

God, if i'd known my posting about messrs Howard & Beasley would lead to this I would never have posted in the first place. :eek: Regards Jim R.

Any chance of an update on how things are going between K.J. & Titan? Regards Jim R.

I'm wondering what other players experience has been when playing against Crack & Elite troops? I've recently been engaged in a couple of games where I have three times caught out crack/elite full squads (once) and half squads (twice) running in the open and being fired on by my (admittedly) half squads at less than 40 metres range and not even a scratch! The classic situation was when my American half squad was moving through scattered trees and less than 30 metres away a German crack half squad was running pretty much paralell to mine. My squad finished its movement & then unfortunately the turn finished. Next turn my veteran half squad turns to fire at the Geman half squad caught in the open at under 30 metres & misses completely. To add insult to injury the German unit in its one burst kils one of my guys, runs back to where some woods are 20 metres away & proceeds to decimate the Americans. Whoa boy... these Crack & Elite squads seem impervious to fire when caught in the open & its happened 3 times now. Anybody else noticed this behaviour either when firing at or using crack or elite squads themselves? Regards Jim R.

Just in case anyone else gets sucked in by other identity stealers I feel pretty safe in stating that the chances of the alleged Hon. John Howard and or the Hon Kim Beasley being the real thing are "buckleys and none". i.e. they are also clearly imposters, just in case anyone else thinks otherwise. Regards Jim R.

Rrobably your best shot G.B. is at the Band of Brothers site. Here's the link: http://pub61.ezboard.com/fwebandofbrothersfrm2 Regards Jim R. [ 09-11-2001: Message edited by: Kanonier Reichmann ]

Good to see you haven't disappeared off the face of the earth catnip (or should I call you Kitty?). I predict that K.J.'s nightmares will start re-ocurring very soon once he notices your name. Regards Jim R.

Interesting look that. Pity about the very large virtually perpendicular nose to the tankete virtually crying out to any potential enemy... aim here! BTW, was that AFV purpose built for Bill & Ben the Flowerpot men? Looks about as menacing as those two as well. Regards Jim R.

You know, I've just noticed that the frontal armour on the Pz I is really quite nicely sloped for an early war "tank" and I imagine such a slope may have saved its bacon from time to time against the small stuff. The more I think about it the more I'm amazed that the Germans didn't think to use sloped armour for their subsequent tank designs until the Pz V came around. Thanks for the pic. BTW. Regards Jim R.

I'm guessing at this point in time that K.J.'s prophecy (like the demi-god he is) of a full blown retreat from the hill is not eventuating? Regards Jim R.

JESUS H CHRIST! It's "CollEge" you great twonk. There is no "A" in college. That's why Pawbroon had a go at you in the first place. A "collAge" is something like an assortment of various pictures stuck onto a backing such as cardboard or paper and NOT an institution where you hope to learn things. Aaarrrggghhhhh. Phew! Simply had to get that off my chest. Jim R. [ 09-09-2001: Message edited by: Kanonier Reichmann ] [ 09-09-2001: Message edited by: Kanonier Reichmann ]

Hey, great looking uniforms & helmets. Just one thing's bothering me. How did the shapeshifter Odo from Deep Space Nine get to be the British paratrooper on the right hand side of the picture? Wrong era isn't it? Regards Jim R.

My guess is April 1st... for obvious reasons. Regards Jim R.

Hey Titan. How about at least posting the game parameters you agreed to with Kiwi "legend in his own mind" Joe? Regards Jim R.

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Titan: Boy im gunna enjoy this<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Just make sure you post an AAR so we can all get to enjoy it. Just don't let us down O.K.? P.S. Good phrases to use in your emails are things like..."I see you're playing a CAT and mouse game" and "I'll just NIP that attack of yours in the bud". You get the idea. Regards Jim R.

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Titan: Challenge sent<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Just a tip Titan. If you want to throw K.J. off his game and play mind games with him, just be sure to use the words "cat" and "nip" frequently in the emails you send him. Regards Jim R.

Well I'd say you have already answered your own question and saved BTS the problem of confirming when the game is "NOT" going to be released. Regards Jim R.
