I think everybody here might benefit from analysis of the situation from a sociological standpoint, but I understand that it will be difficult to accept the conclusions unless you look at it for yourself, so I don't intend to weigh in on this discussion yet. :lol: You're probably the smartest one h...
Hi Felix, Sorry I was out of town all last weekend. I'm just now catching my breath since getting back to work. "What international interests does China have that require direct or indirect military confrontation with the United States?" Well, I don't see it as merely militaristic activity...
I'll agree with you on this one. We did pick a fight. Of course we did "purchase" the Philippines from who was it ? The Portuguese? Actually, we took it from Spain in the aforementioned Spanish-American War. Also down the road China will no longer be content. They will try knocking heads ...
i am sure the dead care :roll: the rest just don't have to go to work... at all :twisted: trust me i know more than any1 here about transition, people only undertand some things better only when they face starvation; personally i rather have a dictator and a full belly One dead is a tragedy, a mill...
When it comes to this current war, I don't know what to believe. Frankly I quit paying attention. I don't read the news any longer. Too much disinformation. As for our current status. Yeah we are smack in the middle of it. And now that we are there I do not believe we can simply pull out. That would...
One hundred years ago every able bodied man between the ages of 17-45 was our army. And we didn't get involved in wars on the other side of the world. Seventy years ago we were still self reliant and didn't need any country, but FDR took the devil's deal. So what am I saying? I'm just saying there ...
I said to myself "what's the point", and almost just skipped posting this. But I'll do it anyway. Swiftspear, you are not too far off base. The only thing you said that I don't agree with is the third party being magic somehow. While I understand their ideals, they just do not work in this...
The single most economically viable thing a government can do is start a war. It is a GREAT idea. Worked for Hitler, Germany was completely bankrupt. And once the US got involved in the war it pulled the US out of it's depression slump. FDR knew what he was doing when he let the Japanese bomb Pearl ...
Units in Spring take longer to go up hills than down them, and that might do something. You sort of answered your own question... :-) I won't bore you with tons and tons of details, but the same principle applies to the air. High ground is a better defensive posture. Therefore a more economical pos...
OH!! Yeah, I forgot about Zone 66! That was good fun. It reminded me of Raid on Bungling Bay, by Broderbund. I always thought it would be cool if they have figured out how to network Zone 66. Also I don't know how I forgot but, Scorched Earth was an excellent original game that a party of friends co...
o_O Uh, you'd pick the character, then you would pick the weapon. But whatever. Yeah, that game is the most strategic fight game I have seen. Nothing beat whacking a guy's leg so all he can do is limp. Then moving to the outside and finishing him off with a metal fan throw to the head... I still pla...
Oh, consoles are allowed? In that case; Bushido Blade Best. Fight. Game. Ever... Pong Combat Snoopy vs the Red Baron Also I forgot, As for PC; MinerVGA. Based off of an old text character game that I manually programmed into my VIC-20 out of a magazine. Yeah Baby! MinerVGA is still worth the downloa...
