Hmm ... maybe we could try some crossover genre game. Something like "Sims3: CINCPAC" ... [:'(]

If you want chicks to play, just have a few b*tchy housewives as pilots on a CV named USS Fabio and they'll flock to the game.

Unfortunately I think your wife has hit the same realization I have. I've tried a few times, never made it past about mid-march 42 in a game. There is just too much to do, too complex, and that does make it rather boring, since you spend far more time in the orders phase than watching the turn play out. WiTP Vanilla was fine for me, AE went too in depth.

10. Find some way to get Super Mario into the game. Come on, who the heck doesn’t get a little chuckle whenever the little guy pops up on the screen?
That one isn't too hard

Super Mario ? Come on guys, stay realistic ! What about Macgyver instead ?

How could I possibly overlook Japanese manga. If we want like 10 gazillion horney teenage boys playing AE, then we gotta get some manga into the game.

I consider some of the familiar names of Matrix crew members and TV stars in game to be "Easter eggs"..
BTW, has anybody looked to see who REALLY skippered PT73 ?

I remember something almost similar! Long haired, blond girls in skin tight leather SS-uniforms, performing martial arts in sinister suroundings, led by a plain crazy and lunatic female officer with a very high BMI-value, not to say a person with heavy overweight, called "Helga von Bülow"..... In the "Castle Wolfenstein" ego shooter!

You guys can laugh all you want but if you really consider it, we already have all the nerdy/dorky stuff on the list down pat. We need to develop our own slang, he says, addressing the AFBs. [:'(]
Now scantily clad anime girls (or fan service, as it is properly known among the true connoisseurs) is sadly overdue. [:D]

At the least, the ships should be able to be renamed:
"Wow, I just put a torp into the USS Sarah Palin!"
Or is that already possible (the renaming, not the torping)?
