Ooh, you sound just like a General Contractor...

Only when we lose rleete, only when we lose. I think we should make Randy Moss an honorary member of the Pool. He's coming along nicely. {edited cuz it's Monday...} [ January 10, 2005, 06:34 AM: Message edited by: Lars ]

Hmmm, seems at one time in my life I verged on funny. </font>

At least I can spell "weasel". I'm an edumacated barbarian.

You barbarian! Every cultured person knows he is the most prolific writer of our time. Poetry, music, one-liners and quips are just a small part of the work this genius has turned out. His whole family have been in the business for ages, turning out some of the most respected work. The fact that you did not know this is further evidence of your failure as a scholar. </font>

I always wondered who Anon was.

I see the World's Most Perfect Squire has been posting today. I can't wait till that suck-up Agua Perdido starts whining that you missed him.

I want to switch my vote to the Russian uterus.

You really should add the development costs for all those regular old HE bombs, mines, and grenades (and fuses! the most important part!) if you want a fair comparison.

It would have with the A-bomb. Doesn't matter how deep or dispersed you put the factories if all the workers are dead. So the bomb gets my vote for efficiency. Not as grog porny as a tank or gun or ship, but waaaaaay more effective for the money.

I think it's Iron Chef Sakai/Gaylord Focker/Tim the Enchanter to get the whole chronology correct. Hmm, it just occurred to me. It's entirely possible that in the whole history of the Pool, we've been booting the same guy repeatedly. How does your split personality keep getting those multiple accounts Boo? And more important, can your psychiatrist do anything about it?

Good job on the website Joe. No surprise that an old decrepit mortgage banker can succeed where a barely literate Okie lawyer fails, now is it?

Was it Kerchberger? </font>

Sounds like partisans should be included even if nobody invades.

Would there have been anybody still willing to stick his head up after the civil war? Then again, maybe we should have partisans no matter who invades or ends up controlling it. I'd like to see the Allied player get stuck with the problem for once.

Proving that CM can still be a challenge, my esteemed opponent just pulled off a brilliant maneuver and decimated my entire Stuart platoon and bagged a Sherman to boot. All in one turn. Of course, it wasn't any of you lot, but there you go.

Umm, I'll take "all of them" for $500, Alex. To keep you amused till I return your file this evening, find the episode where the star doesn't scream his bloody head off...

You mean you're finally going to send me a turn?

Geier, your setup never arrived. Please put something in the subject line other than "Swedish Transgender Ops - Now Half Off!". Swedes, never could do the job right...

There's fame to be had in wargaming? Well I'll be...

Yep, squares are associated with simple games. Like Chess, for instance...

Still here and still drinking beer. The economy is safe. Send a setup and make it in Italy. I could use a good whine and I know you're just the guy to supply it.

17 F? Sounds wonderful, you lucky bastege...

Well, as far as stacking goes, you recode for that, you might as well recode it for the ground units as well. Repairs in Neutrals really doesn't make much sense. Not only do you have to have the proper dockyard facilities to handle warships, you have to have the right spares as well. For instance, I don't think the US had a lot of Brit gear laying around. Sure you could/might fix up a ship enough to put it back to sea, but without the right gear and stores, you're going to have to send it home to make a proper job of it anyway. And this is all assuming a Neutral would be willing to risk it's neutrality, not to mention having to put it's own shipbuilding program on hold. Naval HQ's are better represented by a tech anyway. Just consider Adv Subs or Gunlaying an abstraction of it. Maybe Hubert (or the editor) could tweaking their effects to give you some of what you want.

Front glacis or rear tush? And did the Neanderthal sharpen the flint? Or just tie it to the stick? C'mon, pay attention to the details, will ya?
