No, this was really hot air, like you get when you open the door of an oven set for self-cleaning. Something you would feel when standing too close to a blast furnace. I guess it was nothing worth mentioning, much like Ohio and Boo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll admit that accepting most <font size=1>penguins</font size=1> would be a stretch. However, since I enjoy having YK2, Kitty, and Mace here, and Lurkur has turned out to be such a good guy, maybe there are other decent folks hiding out over in that "other thread". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twas a fortnight since I last heard from the lass...or it might have been 4-ish PST yesterday. Either way the sackless, twat owes me a turn. You better be dead or dieing, maggot. And don't give me some drivel about Father's day. You lack the proper chrosomal pairing to have been created anyway other than as a science experience and you lack the prerequisites to actually father offspring of you own, so get to turn sending and be quick about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[cough]gamey[/cough]Sir, I am cut to the quick by your allegations. I'll have you know that by the time this BDLRM is over my winning percentage may be hovering in the low to mid 60s! More or less. Gamey, you say?? No sir, gamey was the setup our friend Becket foisted upon me last year for the original BDLRM. Two German anti-tank guns which were totally incapable of damaging Soviet tanks at point-blank range! A set-up zone with a depth of maybe two hundred meters, with nothing but flat terrain for maneuvering my two PzIVs. About 2,000 meters of clear front to hold with a company of mountain infantry. :eek: FYI, Pseudo, in this second BDLRM I chose terrain where a reasonable commander might consider mounting a defense, and some units powerful enough to do the job. Even so, one Allied player has managed to pretty thoroughly crush the defenders, so it's definitely possible. :mad: :mad: Anyway, I've already promised you a rematch, Pseudo, so you already have your chance to bring your personal record against me up to 50%. I'm ready when you are, maggot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No sir - I don't know what game yo're describing, but it's not last year's smackdown of Dave Hey, who's telling this story, maggot? I think I had two 37 mm, not 50 mm, AT guns. I did have a Marder and two HMGs. The half of the map covered in woods was the Soviet set-up area, so your infantry could set up in woods within a grenade toss of mine hiding in the clear. There was just a single road from the woods, but there was also plenty of open terrain behind hills for setting up Soviet armor. The tanks could (and did, repeatedly) roll right up on the hills and take hull-down positions overlooking all of the VLs. In fact, some VLs were on those very hills. The factory was about 100 meters from the edge of the woods, where the Soviet infantry could mass unobserved. Do you remember starting our battle with your preliminary saturation rocket barrage? Do you remember how many T-34s and KV-1s you had? Way too many. :eek: :eek: :eek: [ June 20, 2004, 09:27 PM: Message edited by: Dave H ] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
