If that is the case, I can be France. I don’t mind losing early; I have a good self-esteem.

There is no way Russia can ever generate 60+ infantry. I mean, if Germany is industrial bombing Russia while attacking it with most of its forces for 5 to 6 continuous turns, Russia will never amass such an army.

As for your continual harping about your “combined arms” doctrine, it makes sense but it is hard to apply to a board game and to certain countries with specific objectives/tactics/limitations (i.e. IPC income).

If you remember, we had some great discussions on this forum about favorite generals and best aircraft of WWII. I had a lot of fun with those discussions. The discussions also develop one’s knowledge on a particular subject. As for the topics, the sky is the limit…

The General Discussion forum gets too cluttered up. And yes, I wouldn’t mind a forum for all the wars.

I know most here are fond of WWII. I was thinking that we could have a seperate forum to discuss WWII topics/controversies like we have done before.

John Cleese, I think, is an actor known for his participation with Monty Python. What is your favorite color?

By the time you secure South Africa, an A&A game is reaching its climatic point. It doesn’t matter how long you hold South Africa, it is what you can do from there to change the course in the war. So what you can hold South Africa two maybe three times as long as Brazil, but you can be more of a nuisance to the US in Brazil than in South Africa. And the whole point of the IC in the first place is to distract and hinder the US from Germany. An IC in Brazil can do much much better.

Yanny: “South Africa is 4 spaces way from the US, Brazil is 2.”

An IC in South Africa sucks. Even when you build the ships, it gives the US ample time to prepare its defenses and still attack into Europe. A Brazil IC, being that it is so close to the US and to the war in the Atlantic, forces the Americans to attack it as soon as possible or they will face some stiff comepetition in the Atlantic.

I use the Oxford Concise Dictionary of Quotations. It’s small, compact, and contains thousands of quotes.

I’ve played the first on PS2 and it was envigorating. My friends have played Allied Assault on PC and they can only say great things about it. We’ll see how it measures up…

Sounds interesting but I’ll stick to Pepsi’s and pretzels.

Defeat for the Axis is inevitable, though, it takes sometime to finish them off. However, that is the funnest part playing as Japan when you know that defeat is inevitable and you just want to inflict as many casualties as possible and resist as long as possible.

When I think of art, I think of movement and emotion. There are no such traits like these in modern warfare.

War is not an art form anymore.

You can’t destroy AA guns as an attacker, only as the owner of one if you play with a scortched earth option. You can not retreat from an amphibious assault except for air units, depending on which rules you play by.

I just like the name of this topic, a real eye catcher. No offense Yanny.

Ansbach, I’m just curious, what does it mean to be non-denominational Christian? What are your beliefs and how are they different from traditional Christian beliefs?

Probabilities and odds don’t really matter to me when it comes to industrial bombing. I am an advocate of indust. bombing so whenever I have the chance, bombs away!

What about the food channel, Disclaimer?
