Shall I run faster and longer than Mister Gump ?

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 ?
