Moriarty Posted July 7, 2000 Share Posted July 7, 2000 "Lili Marlene" does add a certain historical flair ... but I'm partial to the "Panzerlied" And, "Burning Bridges" is a classic. ------------------ K.I.T.D. F.O.H.S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
von shrad Posted July 8, 2000 Share Posted July 8, 2000 Queen's 'Another one bites the dust' seems appropriate for my losing ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest herbjorn Posted July 8, 2000 Share Posted July 8, 2000 Still waiting for the full version to arrive. Preussians Gloria, British Grenadiers, unter dem Dopfeladler all work great with the gold demo, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schugger Posted July 10, 2000 Share Posted July 10, 2000 Sorry Lutz, I had no luck to find any CD or something on the Bundeswehr webpage. All I can come up with is, that the "song" is included in the " Liederbuch der Bundeswehr". ( Super Denglish, toll nicht?). So you had the dubious fortune to be a Grenni too. Imagine that, this was our platoon song until we chanted it on our vow of allegiance celebration in Lüneburg. I believe our CO was somewhat pissed over this incident as we were not allowed to sing it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawyer Posted July 11, 2000 Share Posted July 11, 2000 If it's not too late, let me recommend "Orbvs Terrarvm" by Orb for music to play by. This CD, a few years old, is music/sound effects like Pink Floyd without the songs and words. Very good for keeping your pulse and mood of apprehension while you plot moves, without being too distracting. I especially love the occasional readings about slugs, baby slugs, grandmother slugs, and Tim. I'm listening to it now, In fact, I think I ought to get another Orb CD to celebrate CM. ------------------ Res ipsa loquitur [This message has been edited by Lawyer (edited 07-10-2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually play any game (flightsim, RTS, etc.) with a collection of music I've made up myself - everything from the Offspring and Green Day to Everclear and U2 to Papa Roach and White Zombie. It's quite a mix, but it really serves to get the blood pumping when I'm under attack . I'll occasionally play a movie soundtrack (a techno-beat song like some of the action tracks from the newer Bond films is good for combat too) if I feel in the mood. Have a good one folks, ------------------ KMHPaladin KHarkins@voicenet.com "We have the enemy surrounded. We are dug in and have overwhelming numbers. But enemy airpower is mauling us badly.

Los Posted July 11, 2000 Share Posted July 11, 2000 As an aside my team used to play Offspring (the first album), as we were gearing up to head out live raids and door kicking type ops. It's great music to put you in the mindset to generate lethal violence. Los Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guachi Posted July 11, 2000 Share Posted July 11, 2000 I find industrial music - Foetus, Front 242, Laibach, KMFDM, Consolidated, NIN, Ministry, Pig Face, My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult, Front Line Assembly - brings out the urge to inflict some digital carnage.

Lutz<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> "Vorsprung durch Technik", the marvels of german arms-technology. I was somewhat more lucky then you, as I wanted desperatly to become a Kradschütze and... ended up as sniper. You can easily imagine how happy I was, even more when I recieved my G3 with scope which was manufactured in 1956 (!). I was in PzGrenadier Bat 84 from 90 to 91 and I don't miss anything! ( exept my sense of hearing on my left ear). If you have more luck in finding the CD with our favourite song, please drop me a note. cu Schugger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
