Having seein "sir Robin" mentioned quite a lot on this forum i have to ask: What kind of strategy is it?



Think Monty Python and the Holy Grail... "Brave Sir Robin bravely ran away"

The Sir Robin strategy describes the allied strategy of pulling as many of his troops as possible out of the path of the initial Japanese onslaught, hoping to use those troops to stop a Japanese invasion of Australia and/or India.

What follows is smacktalk jest. All appearances at seriousness should be discounted:

mattep74: The Sir Robin tactic is one that is typically used by pale, weak and limp Allied players that are incapable of mounting an effective defense. It involves wetting one's armor, running away and generally crying to mommy instead of standing and fighting (and dying, of course) like a man. Allied players that use this defense are cowardly peuks, unworthy of command.

Did I miss anything, USS Mike?



Only that the Imperialist Chickens, er, Japanese are apparently required to get their panties in a bunch and cry about "nobody will come out and play with us."

Other than that, your pretty much spot on, old chap.

Play? You mean like at the 1st and 2nd battles of Wake? You mean like Force Z's "slaughter of the not-so-innocnets"? Or maybe you mean the "dive bombing derby" occurring in the DEI? We've played a lot Mike. Just not thier game,their rules, their tune.

I know I should not be doing this, but since you have been so kind to allow me into The Thread (c), I will share with you the ultimate weapon when it comes to forum banter.

This is a weapon that should be wielded with care, because it will crush an unsuspecting foe, the damage will be horrific and it will cause more collateral damage than a night raid by Bomber Command.




Here it is... the give-a-****-o-meter

Time for todays's racist joke 

A businessman from Edinburgh decides that he's getting too stressed by life in the big city and wants to get away from the rat-race.  He sells his house in the city and moves to a remote cabin in the Highlands, the nearest village is almost 15 miles away and there isn't another house within view.  At first he really enjoys the peace, but after a few weeks he's starting to get lonely.  Eventually, one week there's a knock at the door.  When he answers there's a giant hairy figure in a kilt who introduces himself as his neighbour in the next valley over.
"I see you're new to the area, and I thought you might like to come to a party I'll be hosting tomorrow night" says the kilted figure.
"That's great" replies the new arrival, "I've been here for a while and I've not really met anyone yet."
"I do feel it's only fair to warn you though, there's some heavy drinking goes on at these parties."
"No problem, I've experienced some pretty crazy nights out in Edinburgh"
"There's also likely to be some fighting as the night goes on, you know how it is with drink."
"That's not a problem either, I used to box so I can handle myself."
The kilted scotsman goes to leave, but turns round.
"There's one more thing, these parties tend to get pretty sexy you know, there's a good chance of some action if you know what I mean"
"That's great, it's been a while if I'm honest.  So what time should I get there?"
"Any time you like laddie, after all it'll just be the two of us."






( Thats the type of joke where you could substitute almost any group )

You'll get yourself in trouble with that I've been in trouble for using a similar word on an anti-troll pic, although I'd do it again

Having been a relegation fight less than a month ago the mighty Imps are on a 5 game winning streak and 10 points away from the drop zone.  They're also just 1 point behind the team one of my SNCOs supports but have played a game less.  Could be time for some NCO baiting in the near future

BTW, testing is done. They managed to do a software update on 3 bridges and 2 VCSs without breaking anything. I'm astonished.

Much more likely. It will show up when the PHB tries to get on the interweb.

You just haven't met his boss yet. There's always a PHB in the chain of command above you.
