BFCElvis Posted July 8, 2000 Share Posted July 8, 2000 I have found myself becoming so pissed at units that wipe out my squads that if I capture them I kill them. I am a bad person. Am I now assured my own special place in hell. And most importantly does it effect my score in the game. ------------------ "To conquer death you only have to die" JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorak Posted July 8, 2000 Share Posted July 8, 2000 Elvis, Yes it affects your score. POW's are worth more points than KIA/WIA's.

von shrad Posted July 8, 2000 Share Posted July 8, 2000 Are you a bad person? Nobody is judging you for this. We have already done that. Seriously it does affect your score because live prisoners are worth more than...um...dead prisoners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neutral Party Posted July 8, 2000 Share Posted July 8, 2000 Always search POWs for chewing gum and chocolate if they're Americans. If they're German search them for leather coats and SS daggers. If they're British, search them for tea and scones. If they're Canadian laugh at their haircuts. If they're Polish steal their mustaches and if they're French, check your wallets.

BFCElvis Posted July 8, 2000 Author Share Posted July 8, 2000 I have only done this in operations vs the AI so far and I haven't done anything but have total victories in 3 out of 3 operations. I will refrain from doing it vs Peng because he is beating me up pretty good so far and I may need every point I can get.....BUT I WANT TO KILL THEM SSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOO BAD. ------------------ "To conquer death you only have to die" JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorak Posted July 8, 2000 Share Posted July 8, 2000 Von Shrad!!!! Damn man, Your only the 2nd person in my 10 years of being on the net, that knew where my nick came from. I'm impressed... Kind of sad using the name of a power mad king, that messed up and doomed all of his people to live in a nightmare that he created.... suits me to a tee.

Lorak Posted July 8, 2000 Share Posted July 8, 2000 Elvis, I'm doing fine. Still a bit sore in places, but thats expected. No one really uses the chat room anymore. Everyone is going to the Matts chat room now.

Now that is funny! or was it not meant to be? Poor Lorak was so scared of outside interferance in Anslon that he thought himself powerful enough to use the Orb to combat the dragons. Boy was he wrong. BTW, you are credited with the first ever CM chat room. I had some great nights there too. That was back in the day where the community was tight and had an almost special feeling to me. Those days are over forever. Now there are so many new people that I cant keep up with them. Thats what happens with a great product I suppose. I have never been to Matts chatroom, which I'm sure is as good as all the things he brings us. I just dont seem to have the time to chat with all these PBEM file transfers. Oh the good ol' days. VS *sniff* getting sentimental Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFCElvis Posted July 8, 2000 Author Share Posted July 8, 2000 Ya know, von ramloving shrad, you are right. I come on the board now and there are a million new names. I can't keep track of them. But I really think it is a good thing. It is very cool to see all these new people so excited about the game. I kinda dig it. ------------------ "To conquer death you only have to die" JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
von shrad Posted July 8, 2000 Share Posted July 8, 2000 You know the Rams got new logo's. Have you seen them? It is supposed to look like one bad-ass beast. Instead I think it looks like a pissed off, half-drunk jackass with his head stuck in a bucket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only am I up to my ass in newcomers, *they* now complain about "newcomers".

BFCElvis Posted July 8, 2000 Author Share Posted July 8, 2000 I hope I didn't sound like I was complaining about newcomers...I also have followed this since I linked to it from Avalon Hill and it was called Computer Squad Leader...A) I would rather have a million newcomers and have the game in my hands than the old group and no game. B)I am both suprised and pleased at the overwhelming response of people and how quickly they embrace the game. ------------------ "To conquer death you only have to die" JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
