<B><s>[B]</s>I think we all have come to realize that The SPWAW Forum has been alive with the sound of debate as of late.<br/>
<br/>
There have been debates of the effective power and range of certain weapons ...

As a former Navy Petty Officer, I suppose there IS an element of truth to all this, as I served aboard two flagships; each with its own Marine detachment... But the coffee part was an aquired taste -honest!

<t>While the t-34 is resistive to early war flat trajectory guns on the front armor, I have found them to be consistantly vulnerable to <br/>
side shots from anything high velocity; from the 28mm tapered bore to 75mm pak and beyond. The real issue is that in 41-42;<br/>
the Germans found the t-34 ...

<t>I actually recall a canmpaign game in which an opposing Jgdpz V<br/>
was struck and immobilized by an air attack. The crew abandonned the vehicle. As I advanced into the area sometime<br/>
shortly thereafter, I found the jadpz V to be reoccupied by the crew, who were now effectively firing the ...

Glad to see you back!



You certainly do go way beyond the call of duty to
support this hobby. We are all grateful for that.
We owe you.

<r><E>:)</E> I've been using xp with spwaw since last fall. I've experienced the crash issue, but it was associated (as with some others ) with the video drivers. This is particularly true with some of the rather "hot" beta" Nvidia drivers like 23.11. Use a microsoft approved driver, and chances are ...

Army had an infantry anit-aircraft doctrinal proceedure that involved the mass firing of rifle units at low flying targets.<br/>

If you wan't to experience a game of SPwaw which simulates<br/>
as close as possible the actual command difficulties of a<br/>
WWII tactical situation --then use C&C. I use it when I want<br/>
the maximum challenge from a scenario. I don't usually use it<br/>
in MCs ...

Now don't get fired. You're going to need the money
