    Slacker.

    I also play with one of my oldest friends four to five turns a day. Most of the others are on a one, two turns a day basis.

    So slacker really isnt approbiate.

    Its more like ...

    06:00 get out of bed

    06:30 make turns that come over night

    07:00 work

    12:00 make turns that my old friend send

    12:30 work

    16:00 till oh, well ... too late says the wifey

    phoning some off the unlucky ones, which live close enough to me, harrass them to send the f%$!ing turn back.

    And, Mr. Mike the Wino, I demand a game with you, showing who is the slacker ... :D

    ... I´ve just checked, for the last four month I never had less than five games running simultaneous.

    I´ve played : two germans, seven americans ( US ), two canadians, one este, one french, three english, one brasilian, four finns and two spain.

    Against some of the guys I´m playing since nov. 2001, sending everyday one turn.

    This game is truly addictive.

    Yeah, I know I´m a gamey bastiche ...

    But its against my oldest, dearest friend, we play together since schooldays.

    And he is a big fan of the Tiger, thinking nothing can stop that kitten.

    I´ll prove him ... :D

    Hi all,

    I´ve been toying with the following settings :

    oct 42, axis assault, 5000 points, axis armor only,allies unrestricted 1500 points,rarity is off, map is Wassilyevka Ax As from Biltongs excellent map pack.

    As the allied side I´ve bought ten trenches, ten ZIS-2 atg, ten F-22 guns, six tankhunters and ten antitankmines .

    Deploying my guns inside the trenches and building blocks, consisting two F-22 or two ZIS-2 in one trench, leaving me with five F-22 trenches and five ZIS-2 trenches.

    Placed all trenches in woods and slopes , guns hiding.The F-22 elements go near the german positions, the ZIS-2 stay behind. The tankhunterteams were deployed at six points of opportunity.

    German side gets 8700 points with this setting, so facing sixty to eighty tanks is possible.

    I´ve thought that against such overwhelming odds my guns would last four turns or so, but not so.

    After fifteen turns I´ve lost all but two guns, but the germans lost fourtyseven tanks ...

    :eek:

    That was against the AI though, which is not too clever on the attack. Against a friend the scores are up in the air as we are still playing.

    Looking good so far, lost only three guns until now, against seventeen tanks ...

    :D

    The result is, well, ugly...

    If you can get your hands on a copy, make sure to grab it. IMO one of the best war movies ever made.

    I second that. Seen the flick in school in history. Very moving.

    And great scenes with M4 Shermans.

    I think you mean the " Kaetzchen " , ( kitten ).

    However it was not based on the Pz38 chassis, it was a complete new design from Auto-Union. There were only two prototypes,of this one was captured by american troops.

    Arent there more missing models than just the IS3 and the T44 ? The various Sdkfz 250/251 / sumthing variants come to mind.

    So if this is the final patch and all missing models will be included this one will be big. Bigger than 1.01 maybe ? :confused:
