Hehe, I'm cursed...

The first attempt to download AE stopped at 43% and 199MB
The next at 62% and 288MB without any reason. THe file is still online and can be downloaded via browser but the download manager stopps... Maybe I should slowly understand that I shouldn't play AE before next week?
I'm going to try downloading it via browser tonight and let's bet, it'll stopp at 377MB?




I got to 442mb before it failed....

Mine will finally reach its traffic limit and be reduced to 56k - that'll be funny, again

I have warmed to it quickly. Land combat looks like it will be a PITA, but I'm really really liking Naval combat a lot.

It definitely looks good. A bit early to have a full perspective on it yet.

Anti-Nell devices All those cables and aerials are actually designed to catch the wings of low flying torpedo bombers.

Don't think it's too outrageous to claim that guy w/ director > guy w/ stick. Afterall, I think the IJN went to director control on their triple mount 25mms later in the war.

From what I remember of WitP stats (damn the US Customs!) the 1.1s were kinda nerfed compared to rl stats anyway.

Boss, me and couple of others going to Freebirds tomorrow.

It's great. I just have to plan and launch a ground assault against US Customs in MN, recover the manuals (maybe even read one prior to installation), install the game and I'm set.

Not if you're the picket ship, thus causing the torpedo bomber to fly past you to get to the mighty destroyers


Or they're washing lines. That idea actually had more mileage in it, but the moment has gone now

Perhaps in a few more weeks.
