  1. In a typical attack in Africa they barraged with the Artillery. Fired the Anti tank at those armoured units available and then moved into combat with both tanks and infantry. BTW they still do it that way. Anti Tank should be great for cutting down that armour prior to engagement by the infantry. Without it the tanks would just rip infantry to shreads. I have never really understood why most games made Antitank a passive component. The only game I know of that deployed the Anti Tank correctly was Campaign in North Africa but I doubt many have played that game. It was a huge SPI game it took me and my friend 2 years to complete a game. We did it 3 times. Tobruk by Avalon Hill also did I good job but they didnt do preemptive expect for fixed fire they did back and forth firing. They also didnt spend alot of time on Anti Tank since it was really a tank battle game. It took the Germans a week once to stop a single Russian heavy tank in the marshes. It was blocking a necessary trail and the only gun capable of killing it was an 88 and eachtime they set up it shot the 88. Did that twice before they finally killed the tank.
  2. Sounds good thanks again for the update. I am still hoping for eom or first of next month but no rush on my part I am just a little kid waiting for his Christmas present.
  3. Yep hard for me to commit to many sins. I am too old to chase woman. I still look but that is about as far as it goes. Been married for 40 years and wife is the best so never needed anyother woman. I am a primary care giver for my oldest son so I stay home except when I take him to the hospital or movies. Doesnt allow for many sins. Worked since I was 13 usually about 70 hours a week so no time for sins. I do not use profain language or drink so I am pretty much boring.
  4. Only thing I can repent is being mean to Rambo for his irrational behavior. I should piety him instead of trying to convince him he needs to mature. It is okay to be Christian Rambo just dont try and make everyone believe as you. You can be a fanactic but try and keep it confined in your own mind.
  5. A few weeks ago you said the expansion should be available end of August if things proceeded as anticipated. As that date is approaching like a train while you are still on the track, does it appear you will still be able to meet that target or do you expect a delay. Thanks
  6. All those things you mention 2+2=4, wet water, Blue Sky etc can all be proven. Take a freshman year of philosphy and they will teach you the techniques to prove things do and do not exist. First year chemistry will also help with the wet water and Blue Sky. That course should also teach you how to prove or not prove the existance of Jesus and articulate that information to listeners so they know you are correct.
  7. Simply because I have nothing to be saved from. It has nothing to do with what I dont believe but what I do believe. I believe God to be all peoples God not just Christians. I believe God only does that which is good.
  8. When I was a child a spoke as a child. I preached using what as an adult I learned to be false. As I have grown I have learned that what I spoke as a child was not possible. Uhmm, I though God made everything. Now he didnt make hell. Well I agree he didnt since there is no hell. If God did create everything and knew what was to come and had a hell then he would be evil. Personnally I never called God evil I only state that only an evil God would allow a hell to exist. This idea of God sending his only son to be painfully killed while he sat an watched is another thing I can not believe in. I have lost a son and know the pain of that and there is NO WAY I would ever send one of my children to death. If I could have done anything at all to save my son from dieing I would have done it. I cant imagine any father watching his son die. But then I believe in Good.
  9. Ah back to your Jesus. Sorry dont believe in his miracles or his virgin birth. He was obviously a good teacher but regardless of your strong believe in him and hell I do not believe God would create man to send him to hell. That would be the purest form of evil and my God is not evil.
  10. Dang I had the balloon concession I am ruined. Ruined I say.
  11. I think I like what you said about the new rail movement. I am still unsure I like the busy look of the map but I like the use of it from what I hear.
  12. Nope we are not big on miracles. My religion is based not based on dolls or wishes. You are the one who says we all going to hell unless we believe as you do. If there where a hell that would be a real problem since you would have to hate really bad to do that to someone. Dont feel bad Yogi. I wouldnt play Rambo either except in the game when the expansion is first released since I find this game as it stands to be no fun against players but I love it against AI. So now he can brand me a coward but I am more then willing to put up my real military record against anyone.
  13. Each of the paratroops carries a helium balloon. They fly into the air and float to the designated target. I thought everyone knew that. If you could figure how to attach an adequate number of balloons to your Jumkers it would fly also but only one way cus you have to get the wind just right for this to work.
  14. McDonalds is the best fries. Typically I avoid fries but McDonalds fries call to me like no other.
  15. Didnt know Rambo was a Mariine that explains it all. Jarheads have to be fanatics no other human being would do the insane things they do. I remember watching them at Khe San charging bunkers with machine guns daily. I was the Special Forces advisor for the area at the time and I kept telling them that had no chance of working but everyday they would do it one more time. The marine commander kept telling me that it showed the NVA that Americans werent afraid. I told him it showed them that Americans werent bright enough to know when to try a new tactic. Tims if you need help with that Chinese I can translate for you. I might even be able to translate Hebrew for you also. My grandfather always made us read the German Bible but then we had to compare the verses against the Hebrew to make sure the interperation was accurate.
  16. Rambo needs a new kinda drug the one he has really messed his mind up.
  17. I sure wouldnt count on that most new games will not run on vista yet. It was not a necessary upgrade like the preceeding ones so the designers are not jumping on the band wagon for that operating system yet. Eventually it will be once everyone has replaced there machines. I bought all the previous windows upon release but from what I have seen this one is not one I will like so I am hoping for another choice when my machine will finally need replacement. Kinda sucks for the poor people forced to put it in there machines.
  18. As to your doll theory when you know nothing you should probably keep mouth closed and listen. Buddha's are not dolls they are teachers. You could use a few lessons. But you dont seem to listen so it is doubtful you can learn. Advancement required education and enlightenment. BTW, the Chinese calander is much older then your AD calander and still exists. It is based in lunar solar and started between 770-221 BC. The Georgian calander was proclaimed by Pope Gregory XII in the mid 1500's if memory is correct. It was decreed it would start upon the date of Jesus Birth for year. So it became your calander basically around 1575 years after Jesus "Anno Domini". Also note the Pope determined it. The catholic religion determined much of your history and the Bible. They put in what they liked and worked for them and left out what didnt.
  19. I have not made deragatory comments on your religion I do not believe in all the fantasy of your religion but I dont say bad things about it. Since you know absolutely nothing of mine you should study first and talk later. I am at least qualified in yours. I have studied the Bible extensively. I can quote hundreds of verses since it did preach. I simply have matured and no longer accept that which has no validity. Your religion does not teach you to act in the way you are so my suggestion is that you adhire to your supposed believes and not speak badly of that which you nothing about. Aggorance and ignorance is not bliss. Accepting and learning is.
  20. Actually most scientist believe Jesus did exist and have things to attest to that. Now as to the reserrection and that is another matter entirely. A body disappearing 3 days after it was buried of someone that was going to be a martyr is another matter. Many times bodies have been moved to protect the sanctity of the resting place or prevent people from distrubing it. Cases go back to at least the Egypt times. I have little doubt Jesus existed. I am also willing to accept he was a good man of what I consider Buddhist qualities. But no man is God and no Buddha is God. They are teachers. We all need these teachers so the debates of right and wrong can be resolved logically. My God doesnt really get involved with the creatures he made ie man, animals and plants. He gave us live and hasnt bothered with us since. We go to "Heaven" when we have learned to live in peace with the world. I will need a few more tries before I reach that level of understanding but once you do you naturally glide into the life eternal where you no longer need to learn what is right. I dont need pray to Jesus to ask his father if I am okay. His "father" God will simply allow me to walk into the light when I am ready. We then meet all our ancestors who have helped us to this place and live happily ever after.
  21. Well, SM not sure I agree they have it right. It does a good job but it is not as good as it can be since nothing will ever do that. I like EV's idea especially in Africa. Corps in Africa and Armies just make little to no sense for me. Italians at the start would not even have a full army in Africa. They only had 6 badly supplied and equipped divisions. Germany at its top could have barely reached a corp if that. The Allies had even less. At the start they had the 7th Armour an understrength Division that was well trained and raady for battle. The SA, Indians, New Zealands, Australians and misc brigades and battalions would have only amounted to a small army at best in the theater. And these arrived piecemeal. Maybe two corps in all. Therefore the forces as the stand are overstated in Africa. None of this means Africa does not play correctly because it does. What it means is you could do that theater with the correct forces if you made that area only capable of supporting Division and Corp level instead of Army/Corp level.
  22. Nope I have plenty of those Christian events to back me so I am quite happy. But we are not discussing God. Most people believe in God. I definitely believe in God no question in my mind as to his existance. It is this strange Christian believe I have trouble with. Jesus and this book written by man is a different story. Rambo says it was written by God but sorry he didnt write a simgle sentence, not a single word. Man wrote the Bible. Man then interpeted the writings from language to language, king to king and religion to religion. And sorry again God doesnt have a book of names why would he need it. God is kind and forgiving. Would he make man knowing he was going to send him to hell for eternity. No way. Well at least not my God. Yours maybe evil and do such things but my God is good. So sorry I have no hell.
