I don't think the situation is so dire it requires Facepalm Jesus.

It's not really needed. If an MBT, today, is in a situation where it needs to fire that many rounds without the possibility to resupply while playing tag-team with other tanks (like the Russians did attacking Minutka square in Chechnya), it's probably boned no matter how well armed it is. Survivability is where the tank's survival chances stay (pardon the pun). Like that challenger, don't remember exactly when, buttoned up for hours against a band of insurgents, resisting RPGs and such.

Never been there. T-55, T-62, T-72 and T-90 of several variants, but not the T-80.

I think chronic pain kinda fuzzes over this otherwise valid thought.

YES! It's like a german young Ron Perlman! Who is he, sir?

That's definitely a bad side of not being American.

Wow. That's some pretty tough ****. Good luck, from what it's worth.
On a related note, recently in Italy pensions for fake disabilities were massively revoked after strict controls. Now those bastards make me doubly sick.

It would almost be gross if it wasn't so hilarious. Dude.

Yes, the middle-to-low class that tries to exploit the fallacies of the system for short-term returns and beat the bigwigs at their own game is NOT a sight I like.

practices were usually impossible to practice in practice
Just sayin', redundancy is fun.

Ehm. I thought the various arab revolutions were the point of this thread, but, dear costard, I share the passionate hate of these basic loopholes exploited in the west by the people in the finance and stock brokerage sector.
And, to be truthful, between the awful state of the people in developing countries and the denied economic stability in the supposedly developed countries, I find the latter more jarring exactly because we, relatively educated people (politically and economically), seem unable to defend ourselves against the predations of those ******* neomanchesterian vultures.
Sorry for the rant.
BTW, hasn't this thread gotten quite political, in spite of forum rules?

Well, as an admirer of all things northern, I'd be tempted to say anything German or more austral... ;P
But seriously, reasoning in molds is not of help here.
At least, that's my debatable opinion.

Being good at doing something you've never done? Every child manages this process, I don't see that it needs to be impossible to do with human institutions of government.
I just meant, it would be a bit naive to expect a flawless, smooth process immediately. Trial and error is required. At least, if you don't forcefully remove every public official that has ever been corrupted, and sit all the voting population through an extensive seminar on how stuff is done properly.

I didn't see your post, sorry!
-
Eh. I expected still obscurer, more terrifying people to come up. But this thread had a short life.
-
Oh, god, no. Western democracies that have existed for 50, 100 or more years still have their own brand of trouble, so nobody thinks that.
But a nation does need a startup on democracy. How could one become good at something one's never done? Right?
-
So, the people here support the "trusted, old dictatorship for the sake of stability" argument? With no exceptions?
-
So, no light at the end of the $hitstorm tunnel? Anybody?

Nice, nice! But, you know, this is mainly about pure appearance, not valiance!
This one is where the knowledge of forum members shows (history? BAH!).
I've seem many photos of comrade George, but this one! Statuesque!
De Wiart's hardcore too. For some reason, the color portrait is creepier than the old age photo.
-
Ehm... dunno... something is off...
-
Here we go.

Sorry, photo troubles... you post anyway, mind you!

Hi there. Like all of you, I long for the latest Combat Mission of the bunch to come out. But, instead of harassing steve about which animations german soldiers will use to defecate in a field latrine, I'd like to start a light-hearted challenge.
How about you people post the most imposing/menacing photo of a WW2 officer you can find? And, as much as I like the "leading from the front" figures as much as the next guy, it should be a general officer, from lieutenant colonel upwards.
I'll start. I think this pic from old J. Blaskowitz takes the cake.
This dude just evil eyes-you. :eek:
And sorry, the internet doesn't provide a bigger, fatter image.
If it does, it's too hard to find.

I can assure you I exist in my own blood and flesh, Mr Taylor.
And yes, definitely sig material.
The next two new threads I want to see
in Combat Mission Battle for Normandy
Posted
The next thread I want to see:
"Forum members collectively pledge to never again mention CM:BN's release date"
Can that be done?
