It’s just a lose/lose situation! I’ve never played a girl, but I think it just goes against nature. We want a trophy, some guy’s scalp to hang in our den, something that gives you a sense of accomplishment. Beating a girl is like shooting your pet 24 point buck! (And if that buck sends you to the hospital how do you explain it?) They just want to see us get mad.
Hey, maybe somebody will start an A&A church league! :P
Yeah, that makes sense. It usually happens with Ger. and Ru.
If you use Sherman :evil: I’ll never respond to anymore of your posts! :D
A lot of times I find myself “drafting” dozens of infantry, per “Don’s” essays. The principle being that you get the most “bang for your buck”. I have found that this is true, but it seems like it takes some fun out of the game. (Always buying infantry, no variety.) Then every now and then you get an armageddon, it seems frighteningly similar to how WWI happened!
Any pointers to keep this from happening? I know that the simplest way would be to buy other stuff; tanks, planes, etc. But maybe you guys have some house rules that smooth things out a bit.
Actually I hadn’t decided yet, but I’m sure I could find a picture of one on the net somewhere! I just wanted to know if it was possible.
Is it possible to use your own image, you know, that avatar thing that’s on the left every time you post? Can you use one that’s on disk, provided it’s the right size? Is this a stupid question? :)
Dude! I like this new look! This forum is a lot easier to use. Thanks to whoever did it. :D
It really ticks me off when Christians say that war is wrong. I agree that many wars are wrong, started for stupid reasons by stupid people, but there does come a time when “right” must be upheld against the “wrong”. A lot of times it comes down to a moral decision, and if the Church was doing it’s job we wouldn’t take a whole lot of time deciding!
I forgot my password and was running around on the keyboard like a chicken with it’s head cut off until I decided to check that email thing that you get when you first start your account. :oops: Anyway, I’m back.
It is not your typical church, and besides, it wasn’t actually during church… I guess it does sound strange, we had fun though! :D
My first game was with a “young men’s group” kind of a Boy Scouts thing we had at church. We studied teamwork and general strategy and stuff. The “Scoutmaster” brought A&A once and we had a blast! He made a compilation of classical war music and brought it too. (“Mars” “Imperial Death March” and others.) That really gets you going you ought to try it! I was hooked.
