AdamAnt2 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Thank you battlefront. I used to play many strategy games from Command and conquer to men of war. Lots of money was spent on many rts games. But you spoiled me. After purchasing The new CB series I can no longer play any other rts game.(more money saved to purchase all new cb stuff ) There are many great games out there,,,but I just cannot enjoy them like before . The cb series is so different,and so close to really being there its just incredible. I enjoy playing realtime,,the camera as close to the ground possible as if I were there with the troops. Its even great to get your butt kicked in this game lol. I am playing as much as I can trying to learn so I can soon play against some of the great players here. I read the aar's and really enjoy them alot. I have to say thanks to BF and all the great wargamers who are part of this community. I am not a grog like most here but I enjoy the game and hope to play and make friends here. Oh yeah and my english isn't perfect,,I am 54,was born in Puerto Rico,,,raised in brooklyn NY, worked and got married in Puerto rico ,and now live in Holyoke Ma with my wife,kids and grandkids..just so you can know me better, Thanks Hector 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theFightingSeabee Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Hey AdamAnt2, I spent over a year in Puerto Rico and Vieques. Loved it. I even went back last November (but this time to visit and not for the military). I spent 7 months in Roosevelt Roads and worked for half of that in El Yunque building a road to a radar site. Then 6 months in Vieques during all the crazy stuff in 2000 (yeah, that was me). I love Puerto Rico! If I ever get rich, I'm going to be sailing my yacht out of there on a regular basis. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanir Ausf B Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Please stop. BFC thinking that they had spoiled us (no matter how justified it may have been) is the reason we now have the games broken up into families, modules and packs. If you start telling them we are still spoiled I can imagine a grim future where every combat unit and scenario is sold separately for $1.99 apiece. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamAnt2 Posted September 18, 2012 Author Share Posted September 18, 2012 ty for the name references,,,in school i was *hector connector the garbage collector* funny kids lol...and theFightingSeabee,,,My mom was from Vieques, and I have a house about an hour from the port of fajardo. I plan on going back to live there when my body has had enough winters. So who knows what can happen! When you get the money you can stop by . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 That's a great marketing idea Vanir - especially if the player who bought the unit could play with it vs other players who don't have the unit - kinda like some online games. That would really put the pressure on for everyone to pony up lol. (Please don't TELL anyone.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George MC Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Im best friends with a modern day Hector Maclean. Mainly because im going out with his sister. Best stay in wi him. The first Hector MacLean met his end just along the road from where I'm from - Inverkeithing. Years ago, when I was wee we were on holiday at Aultbea. One old local asked where we were from and when told said 'Och t'was a terrible place for Clan MacLean'. When asked what that thing was and he then said, you'd think it just happened the other week rather than over three hundred years before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Foulkes Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I know what you mean, Hector - Combat Mission has ruined me for anything less than the real McCoy.
