Sir Robin -> Great for the Wife (7/25/2003 9:23:40 PM)

My wife used to hate my computer games.
She always knew that when I was playing my games I was not going to give her attention.
That has now changed.
UV has become the official "backrub" game of our marriage.
As I watch my "elite" pilots happily blow away a destroyer while ignoring the carrier next to it. Witness dozens of torpedoes miss "napping" cruisers. Even the rare cruiser-carrier night engagement where all I touch the Yorktown with is one 5-inch shell, the wife enjoys a serious backrub.
As the basement computer room echos with, "What?! When was your last eye exam!?! Aim for the big floating flat thingy, not the armed canoe!!!" I release my need to strangle someone by reorganizing my wife's spine.
So she happily ignores everything I am saying, reads a book, and gets hour-long backrubs for free.
Not since Panzer General during my previous marriage has my spouse been able to get backrubs without giving her hubby something in return.:rolleyes:
So on behalf of myself and my spouse, thank you Matrix Games.
Now for my next rant. Anyone ever make a WWII version of Jane's Fleet Command? I don't play it much anymore but always enjoy watching my ships, planes, missiles, and torpedoes.
My Lottery Ticket type wish from me is a game that combines elements of Jane's Fleet Command, Hearts of Iron, Gary Grigsby's PacWar, and Uncommon Valor.
