18. When watching war movies, you find yourself nodding and saying to yourself, "Yes, the machine guns on those German half-tracks sound correct."

Did you ever notice that most 'Tigers' in US WW2 films are just M24 Chaffees with german markings <img src="smile.gif" border="0">
Ok i'll be back to work as soon as i finish cleaning the 6 hexes of garden <img src="tongue.gif" border="0">
I remember this from when I was a kid, way before SPWAW (Must have been the Panzer Leader). I never told anyone, figured I was crazy. <img src="biggrin.gif" border="0">Originally posted by lnp4668:
I would like to add:
10. When driving to work, you take note of the defensibility of terrain (Would my AT guns see everything from that hill? I could hull down my tank in that ravine)

Hello fellow gamers,
After my girlfriend was surprised last night when I shouted "CRAP!!" into the phone (playing SPWAW while talking to her) when one of my T-34's was exploded by a StugIIIG, I thought of a little list that might indicate you are addicted to this game...not as if that is a bad thing, or even that a wargamer has any powers of resistance to this game, however. LOL.
1. You constantly refer to distances in # of hexes.
2. You refer to your house as a "single hex brick structure"
3. You can't remember your significant other's birthday to save your life, but you know the penetration values for a Panther G with AP ammo at 15 hexes.
4. You have calculated front, side, and rear armor values for your car/truck.
5. You are reluctant to drive into a dense urban area without "heavy infantry support"
6. When 9 of your friends are out somewhere, you invariably appoint a "squad leader."
7. You've mapped out your neighborhood in the map editor, and pre-registered your artillery on annoying neighbors' houses.
8. You can't go anywhere without assigning an "objective."
9. When asked "how's the weather?" you respond with "visibility 3, rain."
Hope you liked those heheh.
When digging through old posts, I found a thread about things people always say while playing. Here's mine:
"Is everybody and their MOTHER shooting at me?"
When a tank/AT gun scores a hit and the enemy vehicle explodes: "WOHOO!!" (while pumping fist up and down)
After congratulating oneself after taking out 2 Tigers by a careful, multi-turn approach only to see another platoon of them come into view: "Geez, how many of these bastards do they HAVE?"
When your 75% shot misses and the enemy kills you with a 8% shot, despite moving in the same turn: "WHAT THE HELL!!??"
Ciao,
