The Aubrey Maturin series gets my vote. Roughly 21 books, 7000 pages, but it's not the length, it's the quality.

^ Think he was referring to transport aircraft like C-5, C-130 and C-17, Early warning E-2 Hawkeye and E-3 AWACS, as well as some of the more secretive recon stuff like RQ-170.

Would it be OK for me to post some extra/free Steam codes in this thread?

FWIW, Most are from various indie bundles that I already owned some games from.

<t> Delivering naval mines to enemy harbors and choke points is something modern attack subs can do very well. <br/>
<br/>
Mines aren't a particularly glamorous part of naval war but can be hugely important. Even the threat of being able to mine certain areas (like say, the entrance to the Persian ...

<t> Depends on the size of what you're looking at. <br/>
<br/>
Astronauts can see large runways from the ISS which orbits at around 400KM high.<br/>
<br/>
And well, the sun is 93 million miles away and we have no trouble seeing it with the naked eye, let alone other stars..<br/>
<br/>
<br ...

It's old (late 90s) but Soldiers at War by SSI is basically the original X-COM gameplay set in WW2.

Needing 60GB for a game in 2015 is...manageable.

Needing to free up 70+GB for an X-Plane 9 full install ~8 years ago (when a 250GB hard drive was typical) was a much bigger pain, IMO.

<r> Raytheon announced AMRAAM-ER. <br/>

Basically a dedicated NASAMS version of AMRAAM with improved range and altitude envelopes when surface launched.<br/>

Don't know if this is an error, but it's currently $29.99 on Matrix (40 ...

<t> ^ Yes, that's how I did it. <br/>
<br/>
Bought the Steamcode from Gamersgate, install via Steam, then do the TF 5 patching thing. <br/>
<br/>
The patches work fine with the Steam version. <br/>
<br/>
FWIW, between each patch I did run the game for a short time (single player tutorial) and ...

^ I don't think it has anything to do with the fact its barrel is rifled, rather the Challenger uses 2 piece ammo (separate propellent charge) that limits the maximum penetrator rod length to approx 1/2 that of Leopard/Abrams AP rounds.

Bought it a few days ago when you posted this and finally got the many patches installed correctly today.

TF 4.3 is the latest/most current version, correct?

Anyway, it runs great now. Thanks for the heads up.

Right now, operational ceiling is capped -as are most fighters in Command, to just 40,000'. <br/>

Also, there is no option to use afterburner, just full military power to supercruise.<br/>

I would think the extra 10-25 ...

Thanks for the tip!

I put off buying it back when it was first released and then completely forgot about the discount.

Just bought a copy for $4.99.

Love Steam sales.
My bank account...not so much.
