<t>To my knowledge, the meaning of the swastika is the same independently of how it is drawn. Tha main reason for the nazis to tilt it, after what I have heard, was that looked more dynamic that way. The nazis choosed the swastika because it was considered by them an old germanic symbol of good luck ...

It is much easier to eat pizza when you play a turnbased game.

I also feel that RTS is mor a test of dexterity (with the mouse and key-board), than of tactics/strategy.

I have never met Krull, but read many of his posts. Hopes he gets well, both for his own sake, and for his family.

<t>Hi.<br/>
I don't play music that often, when i play SPWaW, but when I do, the country I play, migth be a factor. When playing the Soviet Union, the Soviet National Anthem, sung by the Red Army Choir, is nice. It goes great to Stalin Organs. Playing Germany, I have a CD with a lot of German ...

Ammianus Marcellinus's "De re Gesta". Don't know the English title, but this is his only known work. Deals with the history of the Roman Empire in the 25 years leading up to their defeat at Adrianople in 378.

Hi, NateD.
To melee, your infantery must be in the same hex as the enemy. Then press Alt+m. If you have enough shoths left, you will then melee.

See also the last page of the manual, where the hot-keys are listed.

Lousy Units.

<t>Hi.<br/>
I felt like making a little "poll" on what units/equipment you think are really bad in SPWaW/Real World. The stuff should be compared to what was around when it was relatively new. FT-17 for instance was quite good in 1917, but naturaly would suck in 1945, so that would not make it a bad ...

Weapons and melee.

Hi.
I wonder, have type of weapon any influens on melee outcome? Like if you have Gurkhas, their kukris should do some nasty damage, and sabre armed cavalery too.
