Pak40 Posted May 24, 2001 Share Posted May 24, 2001 It goes like this: I was brushing my teath this morning while getting ready for work. With nothing better to do while I brush, I read the label on my bottle of mouthwash. It says "Kills Germans that Cause Plaque" :eek: I do a double take and read it correctly the second time: "Kills Germs that Cause Plaque". I'm Obviously playing too much CM.

boy_Recon Posted May 24, 2001 Share Posted May 24, 2001 thats nothing. I can only perambulate around my home town by imagining lines and waypoints: "50m Fast move down the High St, Pause for 15 seconds, Sneak into the off-licence, Hunt for the cheap lager deals...etc etc" Quality Time with the wife becomes a real nightmare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agua Posted May 24, 2001 Share Posted May 24, 2001 Too much CM? I imagine a lot of folks have had the experience of watching for hull down cars traveling along the highway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lt.Reaper Posted May 24, 2001 Share Posted May 24, 2001 Yesterday I passed a big rig on the side of the highway and I imagined it on fire with a gaping zook hole in it's grill, burning with the new smoke mod from John Caravella. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StugIII Posted May 24, 2001 Share Posted May 24, 2001 I keep right clicking on my wife to find the HIDE command. I know this isn't the right thread but could that be included in CM2? [ 05-24-2001: Message edited by: StugIII ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M. Bates Posted May 24, 2001 Share Posted May 24, 2001 I know exactly what you guys mean, the other day I could have sworn I saw an encampment of French soldiers in a near by field. Anyway, after playing Combat Mission I decided to start my own National Socialist party. Already I have been soliciting support from right wing business interests. I fired up CM once again and had a good look at the weaponary. With the new funding I purchased a number of firearms for the new organisation. Already we have many supporters in continental Europe. We plan to occupy the London Stock Exchange on Friday and every major European Government will have been overthrown by the following Sunday. Once Europe is in our National Socialist hands (and France has been liquidated) we shall engage in a massive re-armament and integrate all European Armies into a new super organisation, with myself as supreme commander. Then an incident will be arranged in America concerning a European radio station and American agitiators. The United States will be under our control by July 1st (just before tea time). And it was all thanks to Combat Mission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Emrys Posted May 24, 2001 Share Posted May 24, 2001 Back in the SL and pre-SL days, I used to spend a lot of time in the country and a lot of that time was spent hiking. As I would walk, I would set up an imaginary scenario in my mind for the country I was going through. Assuming a mixed battalion of tanks/armored infantry was attacking up this valley, where would I place my AT guns and MGs? Where would I have my FOs? How could I place my infantry so that they would have covered withdrawal routes to secondary positions? And so forth. Obsessed??? Who, me???

ParaBellum Posted May 25, 2001 Share Posted May 25, 2001 Today I did a short trip with my girlfriend to France, since the french border is less than one hour by car from my home. She really liked it and asked me, how I got to know these beautiful little cities like St. Vith, Malmedy and Bastogne... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
