  1. never use a corps to defend malta with ,that xp on the italian BBs can be lethal l8r on,and its a waste trying to with a air unit.Best hold it till Germany moves enough firepower down to threaten to take it then op the air back to UK,or better still if you can afford to send down the french air and let it take the punishment later.

  2. i think that no general apart from manstein should be above 7 in the game.no uk/usa general could have withstood the eastern front 42-44.Zhukov was an average general that happened to be a hell of a bully (and had stalins approval on just about everything he did by 1942 unlike german generals).Look at what he did in the battle for berlin,using searchlights,then a tank attack up a 100 foot height,only came off because of the 14-1 tanks 5-1 advantage in infantry he had.Now manstein was a master in all forms of warfare,attack ..defence . ,air-ground ect.Thats why he was the only german FM that the allies listened to post 1952 when the modern west german armed forces where getting up to speed.To be honest the most underated commander in WW2 was model ,he always was shoved into a disaster zone and most of the time achieved wonders,the only FM that could disagree with hitler time and time again,pity he was a blinkered nazi at the end tho.

    ;) You guys should put this puppy for Download. The Write Protection is I know the worry most have. It's so easy to copy a file over and over and send it to all your pals. There are ways to secure it...

    no, there are actually no ways to secure it ;)

    It doesn't even matter if you allow the download or issue the CD/DVD. What can be done, can be undone.

    The problem is, pay the man for his work and allow him to work on another cool thing. He has to eat, drink, to have a house, a BMW or whatever makes him happy - he's happy, he'll work for SC3 and we'll spend countless hours in off or online quality entertainment.

    Simple as that. </font>

    Is this thread a joke? You've got to be kidding me. I remember FIRST time I played SC, I'd figured out how to win everytime as Germany. I jumped into Forum fame with the claim,"I will never lose with Germany". I got all kinds of takers & trashed everyone of them, it was an absolute joke. These dudes who are testing need to look at overall strategy, not just clicking a few pieces.

    Don't get me wrong, these Otto, Bill Macon, the Robert dude from Seattle, Blashy, Buffy & Jody are great people...they watch the History Channel & like to talk about graphics. But when you're talking about game plan & busting holes with tanks, extreme strategies, whatever...well, you know.

    Test to break, not confirm. What a minute, I get paid $32.50 plus options & benefits for my services, sales, management, & development.

    Legend is highly experienced,

    Legend might just be high smile.gif

    funny i thought terif was the only legend in SC1 ,maybe you should go away and play with the traffic.
  5. bitch slapped a coward rambo?? ,he did it more than once thats why the demoted him in italy and sent him home and the guys were not cowards ,maybe if you had been in battle yourself(instead of sitting playing soldiers maybe you should have tried becoming one since youre so obsessed about it) you would know what its like to be shelled.Patton was a wnker pure and simple,just because he was a fairly good field commander didnt make him a decent human being.

    p.s.

    If you want to insult me again maybe i should give u my address? you must have been one of these little twerps that was bullied at school,dresses up in mommys clothes and wants to rule the world ???

  6. lol at rambo,if the germans are overated how come they nearly took over all of europe.Tactics they developed in ww2 are still in use today(i know coz i was taught them)...USA starts weak in ww2 because all their might was in the pacific on ships and garrisons ,they had fk all army/air to speak of at the outset(they soon made that up mind u lol).Back to the original post ,its rommel v patton ,both had weaknesses but in general rommel was a far superior commander and he didnt go about slapping his shell shocked troops (which was the most disgracefull incident from any allied *leader* in WW2).I would love to see how paton would have coped with no air power,dwindling supplies and manpower and erratic high command,.... ... started polishing his pearl handled revolvers so as to end it all with a clean gun ?

  7. patton was a hothead,the best armoured general of an below average allied bunch.He never fought a battle in WW2 agaisnt the odds that rommel did,so was never tested to the extent that the axis generals where.To be honest tho i think rommel is a possible 7 as he never was on the eastern front and that was the real test.

  8. i just tried it in a hotseat game with a m8,its very hectic trying to get over france as he nearly had the whole of eastern and northern france full of corps + uk air ,axis is bled dry too much before ussr i reckon...... (didnt finish game due to france losses)
