Shall I run faster and longer than Mister Gump ?

Post by ElvisDaKing »

Well as I won't need not so much time to crush my future opponent when playing the Great Mikado, I wish to train my jogging skills.

Main difficulty for the allied player being to choose whatever sportshoes (Reebok, Nike, Adidas...) will wear my grunts to evade the japanese grasshoppers storming during the first months of 1942, and then to play leapfrog in the pacific isalnds, I wish to run a second PBEM (scen.15) wearing a US Navy admiral outfit and then lead my glorious armies in the streets of Tokyo !

I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears, and sweat. We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many months of struggle and suffering.
You ask, what is our policy? I say it is to wage war by land, sea, and air. War with all our might and with all the strength God has given us, and to wage war against a monstrous tyranny never surpassed in the dark and lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy.
You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs - Victory in spite of all terrors - Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival.


I couldn't have said better words, Mr Churchill.

So will you play the bad guy ?

Crushing an arrogant Frenchman would be my pleasure. I can give you about 5-7 turns weekly.
more on weekends when I'm not watching REAL football not that sissy stuff Europe calls football.

Well I am your man Grraven...


Fear the wrath of my glorious armies and ask for my mercy !!!

This day is called the feast of ElvisDaKing :
He that outlives this day, and comes safe home,
Will stand a tip-toe when this day is named,
And rouse him at the name of ElvisDaKing.
He that shall see this day, and live old age,
Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours,
And say, "To-morrow is Saint ElvisDaKing."
Then will he strip his sleeve, and show his scars,
And say, "These wounds I had on ElvisDaKing's day."
Old men forget; yet all shall be forgot,
But he'll remember, with advantages,
What fears he did that day...

Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;
Or close the walt up with our sailors dead...
In peace, there's nothing so becomes a man,
As modest stillness, and humility :
But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
Then imitate the action of the tiger.


(so you can't blame me for not having warn you....)

5-7 turns weekly. ok for me.

Last question, What you call Football is this the 'show' your guys play with an helmet and other protections, (because they can't stand suffering a broken nail), during 30 second steps (because they can't run longer) and they have to switch team whenever they attack or defend (because they are so dumb to understand the full set of rules)...

We have something like that which we call Rugby...but this is a sport [:D][;)] !!
