I am definitly agreeing with you and never even looked at the blog

I like simple russian equipment in general and favor playing as russians in my own wargaming

t34 was the best tank in history.  not now.  but in history

right now Id have to say the best tank in the world is the improved merkava

many people can find fault in a machine which literally saved our collective backsides during world war 2

no other tank in history has had as much of an impact on such a colossal scale as the old t34

it was faster than anything the germans could offer and of course, they built so many that the germans had no chance once they were mass produced

I love to climb all over a t34.  such history, such simplicity and class!

Das Boot is just an excellent, excellent movie
but you have to get a version with captions or its no good
the youtube version has no captions, dammit

on a lighter note, I just ordered almost every single on e of the movies you guys mentioned from my local library

I cant wait for them to show up

man, I DO love the type seven u-boat

I like the idea of listening to the 1812 overture
also william tell overture would be appropriate
thanks

well for those who care about carefully-crafted homemade terrain, my second wargame board is almost finished

the little forest-boxes are all glued to the board and they represent only the heavy forests, in which tank movement is restricted.

you can lift the lids of the forest boxes, to conceal units.  the lids dont fall off though, they have hinges

the last steps will be making about fifty trees to top the hills, representing light forests

looks pretty good in my opinion, and extremely playable

how anyone could still believe in the fairy tales like those in the bible, now, in this time when science can explain literally every aspect of life and our lives, is utterly beyond me

granted, religion may be a useful 'crutch' for those who are weak in mind and body, but sooner or later those crutches better come off!

boy, without repeating ourselves, a second round is going to be tough
but, "B" could also stand for Battlestandard Ancient Rules
which ive never even heard of but you guys probably all have it already
26  Gaming Stuff / Military Games / Re: the advantages of creating wargame boards from layers of cardboard on: July 21, 2014, 02:10:38 pm
the forest boxes are now glued to the board and new pictures should be up any day now

for me it has always been beethoven's ninth symphony
nothing else compares except perhaps wagner's ride of the valkyrie (sp?
