EVEN THROUGH THE FINANCIAL DOWNTURN
OF THE US ECONOMY FROM 1998 to 2002!
Who do they have to thank? Clinton?
Democrats? Bush? Republicans?
NO! THEMSELVES!!!

If anything is unclear you can pay The ORLANDO SENTINEL for details.

But it ain’t National like BHM!

Ptui! Ptui!
I don’t like it, but they make great examples of
‘what not to be when you grow up.’

It does the world good to keep a few examples of dinosaurs like
David Duke, Jacque “Iraq” Chirac and Ted Kennedy around.

Remember, if you allow groups like that to exist it’s easier to keeep tabs on the wankers! :wink:

Columbus Day?
NO! It’s just another wasted holiday.

Labor Day?
NO! Why celebrate labor by taking the day off?
Wasn’t it originally, partly in honor of(read pay off to)labor unions
back when they were about twice as big (and a big part of American labor?) Now they are a minority that has to much control over the price of
labor and products reducing American’s purchasing power.

MLKjr Day?
NO! Correta Scott King(his widow)said DrMLKjr
recognized the value of work and
that it took work to make progress.
NOT another holiday!

Valentines’ Day?
NO! It was invented by the flower, candy
and gretting card industries to boost sales
during a down time (February.)
Besides, shouldn’t lovers celebrate year round?

Take Your Daughter to Work Day?
NO! Why discriminate against the boys?
Why give the children another day off school
depriving them of an education? Rename it …
Inefficient and Dangerous Day!

Just a few offerings …

bk,
I didn’t miss you cause you’re back!
Now that I’m thinking about it …
Pleaseoh_please_OHPLEASE …
Don’t go away!

ORIGINAL A&A!
It gives you the most options.

AAP is a better second choice IMCO.
–------------------------------------------
Bow wow wow!
WOOF woof WOOF!

I agree with BB.
That 1 VP is helpful and you must work on China to get it.
You must hit China(1-2 teritories each turn)with
enough to take it and hold it. This stops the build-up
which leads to the dreaded Chinese offensive.

WOW! I feel great.
I only payed $27, + $3.95 S+H
for both CDs. YEE-HA!

You might consider those situations you mentioned
examples of inspirational leadership,
excellent use of defensive position and entrenchment,
an act of G_d or dumb luck(dice do that, occassionally.)

Don’t forget the caviar!
If you like fish eggs …
it’s the best in the world.

YeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeUCK!
Pass the wodka, komrad!

Eureka!
If you have the A&A game play manual (Second Ed.) look on
p.24, col. 1, para. 3(AREA 2 COMBAT SPHERE) and
p.25, col. 1, para. 6 (AREA 2 COMBAT SPHERE ACTION) to
p.25, col. 2, para. 8 (AREA 2 COMBAT SPHERE ACTION.)

That settles the LOAD-MOVE-MOVE-UNLOAD argument (at least.)

Dagnabbit! I was so lookin’ forward to trying A&A with the
NO LOAD-UNLOAD('cept for bridging) on the same turn rule.

As I’ve said before … “read the rules” … it helps.

What’s up, doc? Or is it doc-to-be?

Prescribing without seeing the patient?
Isn’t that agin the Hypopotamus oath?
:P

@lnxduk:

who here playes by that last rule about only having bombers in 3 places?

Purty much everybody I’ve ever played (on the board game.)

You are limited by the # of pieces (not fair to deprive others of their bmrs) unless you purchase extra pieces. Players should be able to use logistics(right, BB?) and a strategy (a plan for those of you in Rio Linda) to make a game of it. Of course, mistakes by your opponent and average/good dice rolls by you and/or average/bad dice rolls by your opponents helps.

Sorry, guys!
My goof.
see

http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/viewtopic.php?p=29344#29344

and see Axis & Allies Game Play Manual(Second Edition Rules, p. 21, col. 1, para. 1). Please, note that I checked the Rules Clarification pamphlet (equivalent to Third Edition Rules) and found no relavent ponts.
I read this as meaning only units that did not move during Combat Movement may move in Noncombat Movement.

Jeez! If this is the case, I’m starting over as a rookie and Germany will have breating room. I like it!

WDF?

Second Edition Rules A&A Game Play Manual (with no applicable changes in the Rules Clarification[Third Ed.] pages, p.21, Column 1, Para. 1, it states “… you can move … units that you DID NOT MOVE (M. Bradley’s emphasis) during Action 2-Combat Movement.”

F_k,
My understanding of this rule is that …
If you moved it during Combat Movement,
then you CANNOT move it during
Noncombat Movement.

If you picked up a unit for transport and
moved said unit during Combat Movement,
then, according to the rules,
you CANNOT move or offload said unit
during Noncombat Movement.

===============================
I realize that I poste incorrectly on another
forum here about this yesterday. ARRRRRRGH!

Should we encourage our local and national education associations
to have a Hispanic History Month?

Why not? They are an increasing part of the population.
Besides, they’ll be a much bigger part of the American
business and political world soon.

From some of the articles I’ve read in my local paper
regarding Hispanics IN, OH and KY they are stepping
forward in larger #s. I know they are also becoming
more involved in FL (the Elian Gonzales/Clinton fiasco
was one event which stirred them up.) I’ll bet the same
is happening in CA, AZ, NM, TX(Tony Sanchez ran for Gov. as
a Democrat, but lost in 2002) and many cities across the USA.

Sniff!
:cry:
Sniff!
Wailing and nashing of teeth.
:cry: :cry:
Sob!

Y’s guy,
Okay you posted at 600 and you plan to update @ 1000.
When you (or whomsoever does), please, note
@ what point you plan to update again. That way
I won’t waste our time with ‘low brow’ posts. :)

c_c_,
I know I’m early, but
Congratulations on reaching 2000!
(Don’t leave before you get there :D .)

Man, I was way early or you slowed down dude!

Was just ruminating on some old confrontations on this forum and checked the Memberlist …

… HFW has been absent for 7 months (worse yet, I passed his post total!)

… y_b_ has been missing for 1 month (wazzuuuuuuup?)

… also noticed T6’s postrate dropping!
ohmygodOHMYGODOHMYGOD!
The world is coming to an end!
–-----------------------------------------
I miss ‘the good ol’ days!’
What the hlel am I talkin’ about?
I have a hard enough time remembering yesterday :P !

@F_alk:

… This means, you can pick up, move, pick up, move again as a Combat Move, and unload during Noncombat Move.

I must disagree.
In my Second Edition Rules A&A Game Play Manual (with no applicable changes in the Rules Clarification[Third Ed.] pages, p.21, Column 1, Para. 1, it states “… you can move … units that you DID NOT MOVE (M. Bradley’s emphasis) during Action 2-Combat Movement.”
