Fyi. German arms manufacturer Rheinmetal introduced it earlier this year.

I thought some of you might enjoy this. :-)

@barnee Chinese bots having a field day with A&A.org it seems. :-°(

@witt if they made you moderator, then we all are in need of help!!

@CentralCommando I suspect Chinese hackers seeing what we play and what unimportant role China plays in A&A… and they are like „wtf? Just you wait and see what the great China is capable of!“

I imagine it a bit like this: (Seinfeld - Kramer) https://youtu.be/fzLtF_PxbYw?si=0QU6y-RCUB8fOsf3

„China is joke to you?!“

;-)

Damn… misclicked and sent too early…

Anyways… I know that words typed are often misinterpreted by the reader since so much human context is missing. I know there is some tension here about some remarks and it is not something new in this group…

In our daily lives I guess we all have to deal with people e.g. coworkers we do not much care for and learned to deal with them.

All of us here kn this forum love this small niche of a game and are happy we found some nerds to play with.

What I am trying to bring across is, can we not all take a step back, talk it out if necessary and come up with some simple rules to help us work with each other?

It is easy to just end some relationship and be done with it, but is a bridge not easily rebuilt.

I do not want to see such a small community get splintered by something that can be addressed by civil means without going nuclear…

I don’t know, I was told it used to be that guys fought it out and then laughed about it over a beer later, not sure what the online equivalent would be, but I would prefer that, before parting ways for good.

Just my humble opinion…

All I ask is a tall ship, and a star to steer by.

@Witt said in Napoleon 18 with a 10 bid.:

Could AetV make two edits , please? It is his first game and this is an unforgiving game .
Could the 4 units in Jutland be moved to Holstein and the 4 units in Finland be put in Karelia?

Waaaa? But that influences my whole move!!! Impossible!!

…

…

…

just kidding. ;-) I see no reason why not.

@witt I ordered some with my usual weekly order of junk enlargement, russian girl in love with me and cheap as hell viagra… :-D

@private-panic diary?! i knew it! You are an imposter and in reality a 12 year old girl! :-)

@aequitas-et-veritas please do not concede before washington falls. :-D

@Witt or he keeps the tradition of the 1914 Christmas truce

@Entek Italy is up
