Hehe, I'm cursed...

The first attempt to download AE stopped at 43% and 199MB
The next at 62% and 288MB without any reason. THe file is still online and can be downloaded via browser but the download manager stopps... Maybe I should slowly understand that I shouldn't play AE before next week?
I'm going to try downloading it via browser tonight and let's bet, it'll stopp at 377MB?


I got to 442mb before it failed....[:(]

Tithe...somehow "all hail the Thread" doesn't seem appropriate here. [:(]

So how is AE?  I still haven't bought.

I have warmed to it quickly. Land combat looks like it will be a PITA, but I'm really really liking Naval combat a lot.

It definitely looks good. A bit early to have a full perspective on it yet.

This is what my Royal Navy looks like at them moment [;)] These are, according to my sources, the camo schemes that the ships (or a member of their class in theatre) were wearing in December 1941. Regular grey is so 1940 [:'(]

anarchyintheuk. go look at the 25mm thread. someone was being his normaly #@$^*( self and anarchy had a nice go at him.

[;)]
Don't think it's too outrageous to claim that guy w/ director > guy w/ stick. Afterall, I think the IJN went to director control on their triple mount 25mms later in the war.

From what I remember of WitP stats (damn the US Customs!) the 1.1s were kinda nerfed compared to rl stats anyway.

Boss, me and couple of others going to Freebirds tomorrow.
