Day of Defeat (the Half-Life Mod)

@Gargantua:

Don’t let the mods out -{Woof, woof, woof, woof}

you are always good for a laugh Garg!!  :lol: Was in between some G40 games and happened upon the now boring GD area, and luckily you “chimed in”. Thanks for that.

I’m happy to hear Mr. Bear is all well!!!

I am not sure Napoleon was ever really himself after the Russian campaign. What he expected after his victory at Borodino and what really turned out was very different. Expecting the Russians to surrender only having them chase him all the way back to France may have put some doubt in his mind. Maybe that doubt is what affected his decisions at a place like Waterloo. I know in sports that if you loose your confidence it can be hard to get back. I imagine the same could be said about war generals. Just a thought. Enjoyed the post.

Yea and i bet the normal dinner time for them is 2PM…and they wake up at 4:30AM to get ready for the day…of watching TV?

@BARKER:

how long do you or can you play until you catch hell–-me about 8 hours

The key is to get your kids involved. I have 5 boys and 4 are actively playing with me (also their friends). Now, playing Axis and Allies is just being a good Dad.  :wink:

Brilliant! I’d also think it would be being a good husband as your wife gets a ‘break’ from the boys.

Exactly! Had a great game of global Friday night into Saturday with my 12 year old as Japan, myself with Germany and Italy, my 15 year old with Russia and China and three of his friends dividing up the rest of the allies. Their all hooked… The wife was elated.  :wink:

Happy veteran’s day, vets and active service personnel!

Remember, it is better to make the other poor b@astard die for his country then to die for yours.  If you don’t believe me, ask your friends, family and other assorted loved ones!

@Janus:

isnt it interesting, that in america we celebrate the 4th of july as our independence day, when the actual declaration was signed on the 2nd of august?

The signing of the document was really the anticlimax. It was adopted by congress on July 4th 1776.

They started to sign it on August 2nd but the signing wasn’t compeated until much later, monthes later, if I remember right.
