The little gun you mention is already dead, its the other 35 little guns I'm worried about. No matter, you will feel my jackboot on the back of you neck soon enough.

Mojo will do that to a person... or did you forget to wipe the mouth of your San Miguel bottle off?</font>

Count me in.

Can anybody clue me in to who this Gunny Bunny guy is? I am seeing that he has some kind of dark history on this forum.

Here it is; Step 1: Pack your belongings Step 2: Give away all your posessions Step 3: Leave home Step 4: Dont tell anyone you have left Step 5: Give away your money Step 6: Start walking north Step 7: Keep walking north Step 8: Make personal contact with no one on your way north. Step 9: Give away whatever you have left on you. Step 10: Locate the railroad tracks Step 11: Lay down across the rails Step 12: Wait for the train to come.

Pfffft! I waggle my fingers at you. It's 8º F with five inches of the white stuff on the ground over here. Go back into your den, fire up the shortwave and cackle your way through another episode of "Lum and Abner", you red-arsed baboon.</font>

This is to announce that Noba is a gamey bastard, and was somehow able to buy 35 KV-1s for our 1000 pt ME. He then proceeded to send my hapless Waffengrenadieren to the great Bierhalle in the sky, in large numbers. The 1 StuGIII I was able to field accounted for at least 20 of these monster clankety things, he was awarded the Knights Cross with diamonds, postumously. I am about ready to signal a mass withdrawal, but I will probaly still win.

Off page two.

ATGs?? You had freaking Dora and Emil with TRP's to my jumping off point. Which happened to be the far corner of a map that consisted of a big open valley and a whole bunch of cover in the opposite corner. (Where you - and the flags - were) Oh, and then, I get a reinforcement of one scared tank a turn for 15 turns. It shows up, Dora pops it, rinse repeat. Yes, Berli, I've been meaning to talk toy ou about that one. Evil is one thing, but torture - quite another.</font>

Crush me with a shoe! Torture me, I need it... That's what I like... Gosh, I'm going to leave you in this god-forsaken thread, with all your unfriendly attitudes, and get to some better place with friendly, smiling, open-minded people that love everyone! Time for a meal, so to say...</font>

Total War Update: PL is complaining about my Arty, must mean that he had units hidden in the area where it is falling, my Ubertroops are advancing rapidly his days are numbered.

Originally posted by Gaylord Focker Don't fret young Gaylord, those activities are considered normal behavior in Texas and are not criminal at all.

Take a look, at any photgraphs from the street fighting in Stalingrad, especially after September of 42, and you will see a lot of German soldiers carrying Soviet SMGs and MP 40s. The type of fighting that raged in Stalingrad, i.e, room to-room, rubble pile to rubble pile, did not lend itself very well to aimed fire with bolt action rifles. The grenade, the entrenching tool and knives were the weapon de jour in most encounters. I think the Germans adapted to the style of fighting as best they could, even though they went into it armed with the standard KAR98. As for your speculation about the Brits and the Yanks, the Brits proved themselves in urban fighting pretty well in Arnhem, for example. The Americans fought well in Aachen. You have to remember that the Brits had Sten Guns and Thompsons, the Americans had Thompsons and the standard semi-automatic M-1. I dont think the standard shoulder weapon carried by a particular army, is any indication of how it will fight under any given circumstance. Intelligent soldiers have a way of learning to adapt to particular circumstances, the longer one is under those circumstances, i.e. urban combat, the more they will learn to adapt and overcome. IMHO

Originally posted by Noba: You twit, Seanachai is from Minnesota, formally a part of the United States, where they speak a mixture of Nordic tongues, none of which resemble English. Sometimes I think he uses an on-line translator, but I have not found one yet that converts Norwedish to English, I dont know how he does it. For a real example of Minnesotan witicisms, watch "Predator", the Guvnor certainly knocks you dead with one-liners.

No wonder he suffers from delusions of grandeur.

Dont they eat Bhuddists in Texas? With barbeque sauce I mean.

Serves you right boob!

Manuever is the key in 1941 battles as Germans, keep moving, outflank Russian positions, but keep moving.

It's so much fun watching you colonials tear each other to shreds trying to be the best at insulting the mother country. We all know that the 'Mericuns were the only one's to make anything of themselves after giving the stuffy Brits the BOOT!!! . We can pollute our own air quite nicely...thank you very much, and we are big enough and careless enough to pollute everyone elses as well, if you piss us off... Now that we Yanks are all fat and stuffed with the bounty of our hard work and ingenuity, after celebrating a remembrance of our ancestors. We can reflect on one positive result of our association with the other English speaking peoples of this planet. We never adopted that pointless, dress wearing ,sissified GAME??? of Cricket!!!
