Er, didn't you say you got stuck with this? Why yes, yes you did.

After watching that last file, I see why you waited four months. </font>

I think the US/Syria thing might be kinda interesting. Some good stuff on both sides to play with, and depending on how the story is written, could be fun. However Steve, I'm not that hooked on realism that I gotta have the Syrians (I was really hoping for the Yemenis ), just need the Boom Boom Toys. And since you're going to have to stack the deck in the scenario anyway, which kinda tosses the realism argument out the window… So, seeing the political debate it's inevitably kicked off, why didn't you go with the old Unspecified Middle East Country or a Red vs Blue type matchup? Or here's an idea, perhaps a NTC simulator. Got your marketing half done for you there and all the goodies and add-ons you could ever want.

Now THAT would be a real challenge for the US/UN forces... </font>

George Nelson: Cows! I hate cows worse than coppers! {fires his Tommy gun at them} Delmar O'Donnell: Oh, George…not the livestock.

I think you mean bulimic, you ignorant turd. (barf) Send me a turn. </font>

Ah, there you have a point. In March 1944, he should disappear. Don't think the German player would be happy with that little "feature".

If he's in, does it magically become a better game? SC2, Now With 30% More Rokossovsky!!! And 20% Less Popov!!! Yep, should just fly off the shelves.

I fail to see how the personal name of the commander adds to the game. Why not just name them Army Group North, Center, South, etc. and be done with it. Far more accurate as commanders came and went.

No, I look at it as a feature. I always enjoyed picturing my drooling HQ. Who you going to pick to reflect the early incompetence of the Soviet commanders? See? This discussion is really pointless and adds nothing to the game. The HQ is a 4, or it's a 8, and everything else is irrelevant.

Look, a quick count show 17 field marshals for the Soviet Union in WWII. We won’t even go into generals. But we only have so many HQ units in the game. And you may not even get the chance to buy them all, depending on how things go. Plus for game play, you need some good ones, and you need some incompetents. So get off the leader kick, it's purely a subjective thing. Somebody is going to be on the cutting room floor. What you want is for your leader to be picked, or else. I disagree, I want Lavrenty Beria. A far, far more influential figure than Rokossovsky. Or else.

Whats the point here, insulting people? You get your kicks from typing stupid remarks on the internet? </font>

Hubert, delete all leader names and just make them a number. There, Kuni, ya happy?

You just never know when the maple trees are going to let go.

Why don't you post the other screenie, ya rat bastage. You know, the one with all the Tigers and Panthers lined up along the back of the map edge? Btw, there were four, you missed one. Neener, neener, neeener.

Er, except for the fact that I haven't been made a beta tester yet.

Ah, so you'll be receiving an apology and a basket of flowers soon then?

Sheesh, at least the one I sent Seanachai had a photo lineup of naked men giving him the ol brown eye with a warning on the back to the postman that this is what could happen to him if he got within 150 yards of the Gnome. Yours looks just like the tepid kind of hate that would leak out of a sauna and leave a stain on the floor. How embarrassing.

Obvious, isn't it? He's a sick, twisted millimeter perv. Er, not that there's anything wrong with that.

Sounds like a personal problem to me.

Er, did I miss somfink or did the PrintScrn button quit working?

You normally wouldn't envision the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders holding cudgels. But in this case, a rather pleasant fantasy. Flog on, ladies.

Because Canucks have no sense of rhythm.

You really think I was going to let somebody who listens to David Hasselhoff slide by unnoticed?
