It wasn't in the contract or even in the fine print of the lend lease paper work.
As a potential law student with no interest in the fine points of contracts I must state that any input into this subject must be construed as a ferbie.:eek:

Different sized rocks.

Very interesting.
Thank you everyone for a very entertaining thread, its been alot of fun so far and I'm not ashamed to say that I am a 70s child.
Its been a change from reading the usual forum material.

Its amazing how much my hearing has improved since starting this thread.
When I hear the wife approaching and Im reading your posts I have to quickly click on another.
If the hearing fails me I may be on the evening news in the crimes of passion section.
The wife being passionate in killing me.
Me being passionate in staying a man and alive. :eek:
One suggestion that was made didnt work at all.....I pointed the remote at her and pressed pause....nothing....I paused again....nothing.
My conclusion is she is on another setting from the TV, which is probably why she talks through DVDs Ive selected. Either that or I need a universal remote.
Oh and why do wives have such small feet ?
So they can stand closer to the kitchen sink while doing the dishes

The Invasion of Russia -
Failed to take Leningrad
Failed to take Moscow
Failed to take the Russian oil fields
Failed to take Egypt
Failed to knock England out of the war by any means.
America declaring war, the numbers just got bigger against Germany and once the Normandy landings took place it was game over.
To many objectives, not enough troops for everything
Having Axis Allies that werent up to the same standards.
After the summer of 1942 it wasnt going to go in the German favour.

Note to self.....
Do not leave the Tazzer on the dresser.
Second note to self....
Duck and weave, commando roll, avoid the Squirrel grip.
Third note to self....
You guys and the great advice you send my way could get me EMASCULATED.
:eek:
Your all to funny, great Idea's.
-
Ok, let me see if I have this right.
Ignore her. ( check )
Bore her to death. ( check )
Stick her with a object. ( check )
Run her around and scream at her. ( check )
Ridicule her in front of her peers. ( check )
Tell her how important everything I do is compared to her. ( check )
Sorry guys but I'm affraid I do all that.... its called being married.
Tazzer = being able to stay infront of the computer while shooting her with a pair of small darts that then shock her with electricity when I press the trigger

I've spent 2 hours plotting my move.
I've spent 1.5 hours replotting those same moves again, checking every possible spotting position and angle.
My scouts head into enemy territory.
My Infantry begin to move forward, spaced out to avoid bunching.
My Tanks start to move forward searching for the enemy.
My mortars open fire with smoke to conceal my forces as they approach the enemy held town.
My FO calls in 3 Batteries of 25 pounders to blanket the suspected enemy positions.
Another 30 minutes passes and now the scouts and Infantry storm from house to house and the Tanks engage the enemy.
:eek:And then it happens..... the very nasty bug.
The wife walks into my Bunker and says, " Im bored, take me shopping for shoes or a new handbag".
What to do ???
I'm thinking Tazzer time.....any suggestions ???
-
I never said the Poles were thieves.....they were smart to sell the ammo when the crew dropped right down, profit before over work.
A bigger paycheck than they would have gotten being killed, smart to sell and then live....LIVE.....LIVE !!!
-
But they arnt real people......
Hang on....
Were they American, if so....definatly union issue.
Were they British, if so....was it around 3pm when this took place.... Afternoon Tea.
Were they Canadian, if so....they may have been upset about being shot at and decided to not play anymore.
Were they Polish, if so.... they may have sold the ammo to a cousin who was bring the car around to take it away.

I see he finaly got his Submarine command approved after applying for a transfere to the navy ;-)

Very well done and looks reasonably close to the real terrain.
You may consider thining out some of the forested areas alittle on the edges' the photo's have a more ragged edge on hill 400. I think you have done a remarkable job.
Im reading ' Riviera to the Rhine' which covers the battle area your covering.
Im looking forward to the challenge of your campaign.:cool:
-
I place gravel under the rail lines.
Then at road crossings of the rail lines I place cobblestones.
It looks effective to me, but thats the best way I found.
Others have their own methods, so I would suggest playing around with it
until your happy or you get frustrated and delete the Railway.

I watched my SS scout team in a third story building throw a grenade at a Achilles tank destroyer below. The grenade exploded in the open turret.
I thought to myself' nice work ' and then a British infantry squad rushed the building and they were welcomed by 3 grenades.
So overall Im happy with the grenade festivals of shrapnel love
-
All I can suggest is look at a map you like in the game with the editor and see how the terrain hight dots were placed and then its alot of practice.
Thats the way I figured it out, the map warps in relation to the hight dots.
As far as I know there are no easier way to do the hight markers other than use direct adjustment, I find it the easiest.
-
To practice try this -
Use a blank map and place a line of tree's across it.
Then place a line of level 22 dots on the tree line.
Then place a line of level 16 dots 5 squares to the south of the tree line.
Then place a line of level 16 dots 5 squares to the north of the tree line.
You now have a crest line with tree's on it.
To make a hill -
Blank map again and place a group of tree's on it- say 10.
Around the group of tree's place level 20 dots.
10 squares further away place another ring of level 10 dots
You now have a small hill.
Also look at other peoples efforts with the editor and you will soon get the hang of it.
Practice makes perfect or so Im told.

If all else fails buy Beer and find a good woman to comfort you and then try again tomorrow.....if she lets you ;-)
