pfff.....my Fire wall is intact and i've downloade the latest.....boo boo patch from Microsloth for the latest worm doing the latest damage to their latest O/S.

Any attempt to hack into my laptop produces a feedback surge which fries your Motherboard. COME GET SOME!

What ever you have to tell yourself. Just don't come blubbering to me when your computer is a puddle of molten slag.

Aging gamer populotion?!

Bah!

Knavey and I are brothers, have written into our wills that our sons (Matthew (mine) = 1 year, and Bryan (Dave's) = 2 months), will be taking over our PBEM games (the games will probably still be going long after we've flopped over dead).

But yes, my son will learn to play "Air Force" and "Dauntless" as soon as he can read a maneuver card.

"You want to play checkers? Phhhhtttt. Checkers is for sissies. I'll show you a real game. This one is "Squad Leader". Forget "skipping around board", or "jumping" over the enemy, in Checkers. In "Squad Leader" you use artillery to kill the bastards. And your Uncle Dave (Knavey), has got "Flat Top" and "The Longest Day". One day, you and I are gonna go over to Uncle Dave's house, and successfully defend Normandy against Dave & Bryan in "The Longest Day".

Oh. And don't tell your mother I taught you the word "bastard".

A new generation of gamers is in the making!
-F-

whats Checkers?

GASP! Does you mother know you subscribe to those magazines??!!!!

No wonder you dont drink Guiness.....pervert. [:'(]

You wouldn't know, being merely a young Buttdemus...

I'd be careful calling me a pervert when referring to Guinness, Buttdemus. Guinness is obviously a fetisch drink.

Every game is broken when your at the helm.

fetisch

WTF is a fetisch? You mean fetish right? [:D]

So old yuor sepliling giong.............

P.S. You can't claim you let me win due to football. My victory was decided a day before the match and our draw (where I was 1000 points ahead of you I might add) finished before the match ended.

QED

And maybe I knew IN ADVANCE (playsound(thunderclap.mp3)_at_volume(1000%))!!!

And it's not my fault that you can't spell fetisch properly... Too much Guinness, probably.

Guinness may very well be the world's most pefect food. Time for another Guinness toast.......<hic!>

Ahhhh....."The Longest Day".....one of the best board games ever![:)]

Longest Day board game? I've seen the film

Pretty good film...

Had to mount the boards on a 4x8 sheet of plywood. A friend and I had been playing a game for over a year.....then his damn cat decided to rearrange our counters. The cat went through 5 of it's 9 lives that night.[:@]

HPS has a pretty good computer program that is similar to The Longest Day. Can remember the name of the game at the moment.

<edit> It is called "Panzer Campaign: Normandy '44"

Charbroiled -

Longest Day - How did it work? Hourly turns? Daily? Play whole Normandy campaign etc etc

The board game was the whole Normany Campaign from Airborne drops to the Fulga Gap. I think each turn was 12 hours (computer game is 4 hours each turn) . One player would move...other player had defensive fire...player one would offensive fire....end of turn...Player 2 would move....etc. It would take 2+ hours to go through 1 turn (both players moving etc.) Very fun game.

Think of WitP, for just Normady, in even greater detail (if you can believe it).

All of Normandy, in 2km hexes, with company-sized units.

How the hell is anyone going to play that in a normal human lifetime?[X(]
