Here's one of me taken a few years ago, introducing my first boy to hiking. Got three kids, all under 5, now. Which explains why I have so little time for WitP (or many other things recreational) these days...<br/>

Hi, as much as i found out, there was no chance to refuel your carriers with aviation gas (or operation points) in stock or CHS. What about AE? will you have aviation gas tankers?<br/>

<r> My wife thinks I am 5, but almost 8 times that... I think I was one of the best overseas customers of a certain CT based mail-order company in the 80's. Spent 80 bucks (plus all fees) to get War In Russia for Apple II. Ah the tricks ctrl-c did in the game <E>:)</E><br/>

RE: OT- Proposed computer build-HELP!!!!

The 226BW is an&nbsp;excellent&nbsp;monitor - got the same one!
&nbsp;
850W psu might be a bit overkill, but lots of power is good of course. Mine is 750W and it is probably too much for the graphics card.

RE: OT- Proposed computer build-HELP!!!!

<t> Be careful whether you go for the "new" 8800 GTS or a GT (both G92?). Check tomshardware.com for the actual specs and price/performance ratio before you buy... I read the "new" GTS is less bang-for-buck than the GT. I got the "old" GTS a few months ago (not that it has anything wrong except some ...

Its funny when the Hayabusa collides with a Buffalo, they bump off from each other instead of disintegrating (part 5).

RE: WitP historically correct?

<t> I think what the game needs is simply a whole lot of randomness. You play the way you play because you practice it twenty-times over (as we all know its called the hindsight, and close to 20/20 or whatever). You know the F4U will toast A6Ms and so on. Why not add a bit of salt to&nbsp;the game ...

Oh, one more thing, I also played while my wife was driving (coming back from a ski resort). I feels a bit odd to have a laptop open, especially if the airbag goes off!

<t> On my intercontinental business trips witp has been a real joy, my flights (if the battery holds&nbsp;or I&nbsp;have power) feel almost too short, and being jet lagged at a hotel at 4 am is a true joy -> 3-4 hours of pure witp.<br/>

Now you know why you should have a NOKIA cell phone - it looks like new after 6 decades in a lake...

And yes, its the same company.

Go to your preferences and turn "player defined upgrades" on?

That's what I did once I noticed I started an AI game with those off.
