My favorites for an all-guy movie marathon HAS to be Das Boot, followed up with Hunt for Red October. You won't have to come up for air all day long. (Just keep the pizza and beer coming!)

<t>I am NEVER leaving the house again- I am just lucky that my wife pays the bills and tends to the chillen's... it leaves me time for more "important" pursuits. And speaking of being blissfully happy, I am rewatching Band of Brothers... I can't wait for that to come out on DVD.<br/>

Hehe...

I find that, when given the option, the best course is to NOT mess with the Finns....we stick together. Just ask the Ruskies!

<t>The Finns fought fanatically against the Russians- it was a personal issue, fought over many years of animosity against the Russians and their desire to take land from Finland. At every turn they outfoxed the Reds and the only way Russia was able to take a victory was through sheer numbers of ...

<r>Ok-<br/>

So I took your fellas suggestion and I launched Wittmann's Gamble tonight (I was only gonna LOOK- I'm supposed to be studying for my Microsoft certification) and..well... let's just say I need a cigarette and 8 hours of sleep now. <E>:D</E> After the spanking I received (twice) on ...

<t>So, what you are telling me is that I chose one of the HARDEST scenarios available as my first one to try after the tutorials!! And I thought I was just stupid.... Once I finish this one, I think I'll head out to the Eastern front armed only with my Speedos and a copy of "Rosie" magazine. I ...

<t>I want to thank all you guys for stepping up with these great suggestions. I'm printing them out and deciding what my next step will be. It is a little daunting to think I have 200+ scenarios waiting to be played PLUS MCNA which keeps me awake at night!!<br/>
<br/>
I think I will break down each ...

<t>So.... I discovered the hard way how hard it is to advance on defended postions. I'm playing "King of the Hill", and Jerry is schooling me on the finer arts of firing lanes and I keep getting mowed down! I really love this scenario so far (makes me pine for the good ol' ASL days) but I think it ...

I too am watching this development closely. Since I JUST got MCNA (I feel like the last kid on the block) I'm not sure I should even play it until this is fixed....

Or perhaps one of those fancy Finnish/Russian vodka services? A big crystal bowl full of ice holding those tall, skinny shot glasses. Nothing like some chilled Finlandia to steady your nerves on the Mannerheim Line....

I am proud to announce that as of yesterday, my very own copy of MCNA was shipped out. I now must wait for the Postal Service to do its thing so that my campaign may begin. I have already begun stockpiling rations, alcohol and caffeine and my list of excuses to my wife and ...

<t>Bravo!! Bravo!!!<br/>
<br/>
I wish I could be that witty and erudite- unfortunately, I am marching on no sleep today! (Still trying to perfect my lackluster performance on the tutorials... I can assault a (dummy) bunker like nobody's business!!)<br/>
<br/>
And David- Yes, I am in Prince William ...

<t>Well guys,<br/>
<br/>
Thanks for the warm welcome so far!! <br/>

-Larry- I have retrieved your excellent primer and I am currently "borrowing" work resources to print it out.... My only question is- When will I be tested on all this material???<br/>
<br/>
To the General- It's funny that you ...

<t>Guys!!<br/>

Why didn't any of you tell me about SPWAW before?!? I d/l it on Monday, and I haven't slept since. I have been working my way through the tutorial scenarios and I'm anxious to get beyond the "running blindly into firelanes" stage of my learning curve...<br/>

I have been ...
