Jagdcarcajou Posted March 7, 2001 Share Posted March 7, 2001 Hey all, CM Recon has been updated with the German version of my splash screens. Find it in the mods section. Also check out the updated Links and the new PBEM naming convention article. Chris ------------------ What the hell is a Jagdcarcajou?

Pascal DI FOLCO Posted March 7, 2001 Share Posted March 7, 2001 Jagdthing, I'm very uneasy with your splash screen sporting a huge Nazi svatiska in the center... Could be fine for the homepage of a neonazi group, but no way I will use this as a CM screen ! It's even illegal in Germany or even I think in the majority of Europe... Why don't you make a "country mix" screen with say a Tiger, a Sherman, a Polish squad and a SS HT, with small flags for the various nationalities ? This will be IMO in the spirit of CM : simulating WW2, not glorifying Hitler. BTW, if you intend the latter, I just f*ck you b*stard... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagdcarcajou Posted March 7, 2001 Author Share Posted March 7, 2001 Pascal, Then don't use it. I have already discussed my stance on this issue when I posted the previews. If you prefer, grab the Brit version next week, or the Canadian the week after that. I will not be doing any other splash screens for the forseeable future, so take em or leave em, its up to you.

Pascal DI FOLCO Posted March 7, 2001 Share Posted March 7, 2001 Jagdcar.., Indeed I won't use it, but moreover I find it's simply a *bad* idea. It just helps the majority of non-grog people assimilate us with some nostalgic nazis, and I can't stand that. Sorry, I missed the previous thread. And apart from this svatiska, your screen is very good, too bad it's spoiled..I'll wait for your Allies screen, so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rommel22 Posted March 8, 2001 Share Posted March 8, 2001 Seriously, what is Jagdcarjuo??!! ------------------ Rommel22s Kampfgruppe site: http://rommel22diarys.homestead.com/MyPage1.html "I saw 5 Germans walking down the side of the road, so I followed them for a few yard to get closer. Then I shot them! Later that day I found out the war has been over for a few weeks." - someone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henri Posted March 8, 2001 Share Posted March 8, 2001 Originally posted by Rommel22: Seriously, what is Jagdcarjuo??!! A Carcajou is a French (perhaps English too...) name for a Northern Canadian scavenger animal that eats dead animals (sort of like a jackal). But I have never seen one so I have no idea what it looks like. Henri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the meanest animals pound for pound in the world. An adult weighs `50 lbs and there are verifiable records of them taking adult elk 500-1000 lbs !! Nasty little buggers. ------------------ Later, Dave [This message has been edited by Sgt Fred (edited 03-08-2001).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the record: Jagd = German for "hunting" Carcajou = French for Wolverine There you have it. "Why" you ask? Because all the real tank names were taken!
