Oh dear. I hope I haven't overshared.


A Chinese "ace" is any pilot who makes it to 40 experience in one lifetime. A Chinese top of the line fighter has fabric wings and was given away to charity by the Russians in 1928.

A Chinese "Army" has 3000 men, half of whom can't use chopsticks and one quarter of whom are not toilet trained.

Then there is the Chinese economy. I always accelerate the construction of the undergound bean curd plant in Chengtu. Ahhh...good times.

They grow underground beans in Chengtu?

I havent searched for those 2 yet & they are on the "to do" list....in about 20 years. Plus Hogmutt is lucky that he cant go to California to "get to me";

He's got nothing else to do. Sometimes I delete two or more of sock puppets a day. If I could get my hands on him I would kick the **** out of him.

There is no way in hades Slaak is ever getting back on this board. It aint gonna happen. Slaak should be thankful he lives in California, where I can't get to him.

The major difference seems to be in the degree they like "micro management". AFB's have to "micro mangage a lot. JFB's Micro manage to an extreme.

What we really need is a lot more small campaigns. In those it really doesn't matter who you play.

Maybe they can do a spin-off game "Factory Manager in the Pacific" for those who don't want all those pesky interferring "combat moments".

Status: offline 		In the old GGPW, I always liked playing the Japanese, and the Allies through mid-1943. For me the fun was in seeing how much of Allied combat power you could salvage before it was all isolated, and have these guys waiting in case the Axis player tried to overreach.

On a slightly off-topic note, is there a place where you can find dedicated AARs for games played using the 2-day turn cycle? Are there any "classics" AARs for the 2-day cycle game?

Hmmm...hard to choose. I think I'll take the poorly rendered, unrealistically bunched and poorly controlled bunch at the open area identified "Konigsplatz".

Interesting that these massive infantry battles with tens of thousands were rendered by about 30 dudes onscreen. Looks like this game is dated, if it ever was of interest to serious wargamers. I can't imagine that vassal makes it any better.

No thanks.

Well, how's that working out for 'ya?

Your way's been tried and failed. Ridiculing their SPAMed game platform's worth a shot next in my book.

Keep up with the language and you'll get banned for that for guaranteed nil effect, mate.

It's happened before. I'll be happy to suffer a ban if it gets some attention drawn to these ****s.

Want I should / other dudes should also contact the mods? Sometimes multiple complaints carry more weight than just one.

(Snicker snicker chortle with mirth....I beg to mention that your analysis was greenhorn....observing that Close Combat; The Russian Front, one of the most fascinating games in wargaming history is played by some of the most dedicated afficiandos in the galaxy....is not played on Vassal!)

One of the ones you mentioned was quite good as a tactical sim. As a matter of fact, if I wanted to play a tactical sim like that again, I might just go to its germane forum and talk about it. Not here.

Status: offline 		Like the games of which you speak, Gracie Jiu-Jitsu is a fascinating idea, but not my cup of tea. If I wanted to discuss my preferences for Tang Soo Do, I'd find an appropriate forum to do so.

Surely you must see that posting an oversized image of a Jiu-Jitsu martial artist is not conducive to rational discussion on the JFB/AFB thread that you've 'participated' in, no?

I think I know the answer to this question, unfortunately. I've asked the forum moderator to put a stop to your nonsense, Slakmann. You're not contributing by your SPAMing and your repeated attempts to hijack the spirit of this thread and this forum.

If you truly feel that it's your civic duty to remove such threats , then I approve! Now off yourself please! You've been very successful in creating bad Karma. You can go now, your job is done.
