I was talking about in the later battles, such as those when Russia was regaining lost territory.

RE: The Tanks of WWII
Soviet air power won WWII for them. They destroyed more tanks with Il-2’s and Il-10’s than with tanks.

RE: Russian Invasion
No, you can equally blame the teachers and the administration for not correcting children at a young age. Raising moral and ethical children with the knowledge needed to be effective contributers to this world is not soley in the hands of teacher or parent, but in both.
Now, women libers (femi-nazis) have screwed up the home creating a situation where both parents have to work or plan to live impoverished thus removing the parent element from rearing of children and then over zealous lawyers have screwed up the schools so that teachers have no authority over kids anymore.
Add that to the “Oh Billy, you’re so smart. Yes, the Capital of France is London! Here’s a gold star and have fun in the 4th grade, Billy!” attitude of the social promotion system we find in school and you can imagine why children are flipping out and shooting each other. It’s not because they want too, it’s because they’ve been driven mad by a system that seems - at least to them - to not care about them, and only want to warehouse them and shuffle them through each level before putting it’s boot on their reer and kicking them out the door into the cold reality.
Let’s face it. We need teachers empowered to discipline kids. We need to stop threatening teacher’s pensions and tenure if they decide to teach morals and ethics instead of federally assigned curricula and we need to establish a 1 income family again so that parents can be home to raise their children.
Actually, the fact that most of the kids are loners who no one ever talks to or cares about drives them to shoot people. The school system is not at fault as much as the social standing. We were discussing this today, and we also decided that people didn’t release their anger as easily because there are less fights in school, or wherever, so the anger because more critical, until boiling over.

RE: Russian Invasion
Hitler came to power in an Aristocracy that happened to have democratic elements. Not the same as a representative democracy. Also, children going to school and shooting people is not a fault of democracy, it’s a fault of bad programming done by the liberal elite. When the situation was run by the local matriarch and taught values and facts we did not have this problem.
I find it hard to listen to you Jennifer, becaue you can’t stop with the worthless attacks.
Funny, you can’t start internallizing corrections to your malicious attacks.
Not my fault you attempted to equate Hitler to an elected official in a representative democracy when he was an appointed official in an aristocracy. (the Kaiser confirmed him after he was elected. The Kaiser could have dismissed him, technically, though how literal the idea might be could be heavily debated on both sides.)
Then you go on to say it’s democracy’s fault for children shooting each other in schools when we can realistically look at history, with non-politically polarized goggles and see that it is more accurate to say it is a lack of morals being taught in schools that has resulted in the rise of crime. After all, there were no documented school shootings between 1860 and 1900 when schools taught conservative values. But since the 1960’s, when schools stopped teaching morals and ethics and just touted the government mantras, we see a spike in violent crimes in schools.
Funny, when the facts come out, your statements don’t seem to be very accurate at all. And thus, you are reduced to your flame-thrower.
I am so tired of this I didn’t say anything about this at all. You put those words in my mouth. That is a retarded, wimpy tactic only used when you can’t win otherwise.

RE: The Tanks of WWII
@Imperious:
Micheal Wittmann demonstrated what exactly a Tiger could so against Allied tanks when Monty tried to break into Caen. Wittmann’s tank alone stopped the entire British division and knocked out something like 22 tanks and 14 support vehicles.
At the cost of his own life, nonetheless…
the joseph stalin series of heavy tanks for the USSR, epecially Stalin III’s. Could slug it out evenly or i think with an advantage over any heavy tank the germans had.
The problem with the IS-2 was that it wasn’t as much of a threat to infantry as it was to tanks, so it was more like a Jagdpanther (or whatever it was called) than a Tiger.
I think that a 36:1 KDR is more than acceptable, myself.
Edit: The Panther could get a T-34 through the front armor from 2000m, whil the T-34 needed 500m.

RE: The Tanks of WWII
They were ten feet high and were an easy target to hit. However, the Allies really didn’t need to rely on their tanks as much.
The Wolverine couldn’t destroy Tigers or Panthers, just Panzers.
Anyways, a Sherman was a Japanese G4M, like Balungloaf said (the G4M was the Japanse bomber that was used as the piece in Axis and Allie, and it was a weak airplane.) One shot and it is gone.

The Tanks of WWII
The Sherman was a piece of crap. It took 17 shots at 500 yards to kills a Panther, while one Panther could kill a Sherman 2000 yards away with one shot. We only one because we could make so many of them.

For what purpose are nouns in Spanish gender-related?
My Spanish teacher couldn’t answer that.

RE: Russian Invasion
Oil was rather important.
So the Soviets would have little, and the Germans would have had a source the Allies coudln’t have bombed because they couldn’t have reached it
Therefore, the Germans would have been more immune to the Ploeisti raids, and once the Soviets were shattered, could get around to invading Britain.

@Imperious:
I love to build millions of dogs and send them in hordes against the enemy… especially against the townspeople! but i hate when they die and you hear that last yelp in the snow…sad…
Yeah.
So anyway, the loss of Moscow and Leningrad would have ended the Soviets because they wouldn’t have been able to fight cohesively?

RE: Russian Invasion
Saint Petersburg was a Czar’s attempt to Westernize Russia.
Unfortunately, for Russia, maybe fortunately for the world, it did not spread throughout Russia.
Imagine if Russia had an army the size they did using modern (to that time period) tactics and equipment and methods and training! Ye gads…WWII might never have happened, but the EU would be the Union of Soviet Socialized European and Asian States!
Scarey thought, huh? Of course, it’s all hypothetical. What we know is that a Czar went to school in France and learned about the navy, fell in love with the concept of a navy and went home to build one. Then, to house his new navy, he commissioned the building of a city, named Saint Petersburg, and it was constructed to emulate the cities of the West, where he attended school. (France I believe. That was the cultural center of the world at the time, so even if I’m wrong and he went to Germany/Prussia or England, I’m still not totally off base.)
Yeah. Command and Conquer: Red Alert, anyone?

RE: Anyone here play Rise of Nations?
I’ll hop on X-fire chat and bother you.
Anyways, perhaps we could play first as a team against the computers, so you can help me a little bit in improving my play.

RE: Russian Invasion
@Imperious:
I figured that, but considering most of the Russian factories were moved there (the line, of course, is essentially the Urals,) wouldn’t they have been able to rebuild a force to attack the Germans?
Or would the Germans have burned it, but not bothered covering it?
They may have had factories in the Urals but they would have been bombed from Gorki… no oil, no foodstuffs, no way to transport materials, no man power would have led to a poor result in battle. The germans would have cut the siberian railline or allowed the Japanese to come thru to attack the other side of china and the middle east to India.
So civilized, cohesive, Russia was Europe?

RE: Anyone here play Rise of Nations?
You can set it up.
Anyway, tomorrow would work much better than tonight.
Anytime after five.
I don’t feel like dong anything other than owning with a Battlefield 2 attack chopper tonight.

Russian Invasion
When you look at a map of Russia, and look where Moscow is, you realize the Germans really didn’t capture that much of Russian land.
