newlife Posted January 3, 2002 Share Posted January 3, 2002 My hats off to you Comabt General for playing a good opponent like Swamp, getting trashed, and still telling us about it. There's no better way to learn than getting trashed by the best of em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuka Posted January 3, 2002 Share Posted January 3, 2002 I am the greatest player in the history of CM! Nobody can defeat me, I personally guarantee that I can cream any opponent 100-0, or sumfink. Woot! PS. I saw a comic book once that had a ghost Stuart tank, were these real? My little brother says they were real. I fink these should be modelled in the game.

I misunderstood your initial (and you must admit ambiguous) statement. I agree with it as clarified above though. But I do think the merciless pouring of scorn over CG just because he likes to blow his own trumpet with such gusto should proceed in a kinder and gentler vein. His honesty and forthrightness are a breath of fresh air, and highly entertaining to boot. Chris Walker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Walker<hr></blockquote>Ummm, well the "merciless pouring of scorn" isn't just due to him blowing his own horn. His "honesty and forthrighness", for example, have been called into question several times, not the least of which is his claim to have graduated from Harvard Law. Then there were his continued boasts about how good he was and his challenges to one and all but he NEVER played anyone, despite numerous offers from many to show him the ropes. To my knowledge, Swamp is the first one he's played, if he did indeed play him. If he wants to blow his horn, fine, but he has to walk the walk too. People blow their own horns all the time, but usually it's about CM. If he has turned the corner and is willing to be part of the community, then he's welcome aboard. If he continues to troll ... he'll likely be the recipient of more scorn. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad Harrison Posted January 4, 2002 Share Posted January 4, 2002 I cant take it anymore, I have to say something. Yes CombatGeneral, you are new to the game and you are trying to make a place for yourself. You had a rocky start with your posts, but now things are smoothing out a bit for you. BUT, trust me, CG, you have a long way to go before you reach your 'perfect strategy' and perfect 'doctrine' of CM. Did you ever play american football? I did, I was on the line of all places. There are two kinds of linemen in my opinion. Type 1 talks and talks trash all game long, then you find out that the trash is making up for a lack of ability. Type 2 goes in, wreaks havoc (not necesarily being the best, but throwing some people around), and doesnt say a word. CG, its good to hear your AAR, thanks for them! But, when it comes to how good you are, and you would of beat swamp if it wasnt for one thing or another, keep those comments to yourself. Let your actions do your talking, not your boasting here on the board. Keep playing, and youll figure out that big talk here only goes so far, and is looking down upon by most players here. Good luck in your games though! Keep us posted, and maybe you can get swamp next time! Chad Harrison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still can remember many dialogs on that one Also in the Westland but after that line, it sounded more or less like this: (Reporter)- Any women and children ? (Gunner)- Yes (Rep.)- How can you do it ? (Gun.)- Just don't aim it so forward ! (it, the heli-cannon) (Rep.)- ! (Gun.)- Isn't war hell ? ahh, hahahaha That movie is not a very “real” one, but it had a lot and I mean a lot of “good” lines… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armdchair Posted January 4, 2002 Share Posted January 4, 2002 That particular piece of dialogue is straight from the book "Dispatches" by Michael Herr. He was quoting a door gunner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
