Hi, Goat ropers National Anthem.

We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee;
An' we don't take our trips on LSD.
We don't burn no draft cards down on Main Street;
We like livin' right, an' bein' free.

We don't make no party out of lovin';
We like holdin' hands and pitchin' woo;
We don't let our hair grow long and shaggy,
Like the hippies out in San Francisco do.

And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee,
A place where even squares can have a ball.
We still wave 'Old Glory' down at the courthouse,
And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all.

Hey, leather boots are still in style for manly footwear;
Beads and Roman sandals won't be seen.
An' football's still the roughest thing on campus,
And the kids there still respect the college dean.

And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee,
A place where even squares can have a ball.
We still wave 'Old Glory' down at the courthouse,
And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all.

And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all,
In Muskogee, Oklahoma, USA.

"I Moses, bearing a gift from God, deliver unto you these 15 (WHAM!!!!) uh, 10 commandments."

Moses writing down commandments on Ms. Sinai.

-God-"Moses, did you get the thou shalt not kill and thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife"?
-Moses-"Yes"
-God-"Ok, commandment number 11"
-Moses-"God, can we just leave it at 10?"
-God-"Moses, don't haggle"
-Moses-"Where does it say 'thou shalt not haggle'?"

If it's a dry campus, it would have to be.

With all I have read about this mysterious leader bug... how difficult would it be to remove this layer of chrome from the game? In other words just remove the leaders from the game entirely. Yes they are interesting but how much do they actually add to the game?


I suddenly had an image of you being tried in a Monty Python like court of law....he's a heretic...burn him...burn him... a witch i tell you a witch....

Then with the buzz from the last beer slowly waining I saw the light....not such a bad idea. Turn the damn things off or at the least create a line of code that does not allow for the Japanese list to be accessed to fill US commands...and vice versa surely to god that cannot be that hard to do

I agree. I never had any interest in appointing individual ship captains, squadron commanders, infantry unit COs, and the like in the first place. In fact, when you think about it, this runs entirely counter to the idea that this is an operational level simulation.

As in PacWar, I would like to retain control over army, fleet, and other HQs, but the rest? Forget about it.

I guess I struck a nerve.....Hopefully 1.5 will fix the leaders (either correct them or neuter them). I'd rather see that than more chrome...

...
I assign leaders using the "leadership" rating. I also look at their personality (aggressive or cautious)
Between these two items I assign leaders.
If it says "rear area" I don't put him in command of my next assault.
If it says "transport" I don't assign him to my carrier fighters
But mostly I just go by leadership. I mean what do you need? If you are looking for a leader try "leadership"
...
How will you do it from 1.5, when we see the other skills (naval, air, admin,...) as well? Will you put the naval skill of a ship captain above leadership (assuming the rest is the same/irrelevant)?

Why even go to school if it's dry? [&:][8|][:D]

I work for school security at my school and I've lost count of how many cases I've heard of of Freshie girls getting pass-out drunk (often with sad consequences) or Freshie guys getting loaded and wrapping their cars around lamp posts. On one hand, its more control than we'd like to see. On the other, if their parents didnt raise them right, it becomes sort of a public responsibility. If it takes something like that to keep a stupid girl who's feeling her oats now that she's away from mom and dad from getting gang raped, I'll gladly take the risk of looking like a control freak.

I'd have to agree with you. While I know a bunch of people at my campus that can drink responsibly, I know 20X more who grab a bottle and don't know how to put it down untill they pass out.

Ditto. And I say that its all the parent's fault. Teach you kids good things and be a good example for them and you wont have to worry about them doing things like that.
