8 player multiplayer - THREAD FOR BOTH SIDES

[Telemecus]

A test I have given all Axis commanders, although Stelteck managed to dodge it. But now it is thedude357's turn, though I would be interested to know Soviet responses too. See the video of our first team meet up here and tell us which kind of Nazi General are you?

[EwaldvonKleist]

Difficult to say as I have some problems to understand all subtleties of the spoken English. Probably number 2 though Nr. 1 has the happiest days
What where the results of your commanders and yourself?

The video is excellent! Too bad there isn't such one about western and Soviet generals

[Telemecus]

lowsugars answer won hands down - "I'm the one who shags the secretary"

I did spend some time looking for a Soviet equivalent but found nothing of quality - hollywood and western cinema never stereotyped Soviet commanders in the way they did German ones. Even the cold war stereotypes are spies/KGB etc., not red army. I have watched quite a few Soviet war films, but double entendres etc usually do not work well with subtitles, so foreign language versions may have passed me by.

On the other hand there are a lot of red army babes things that Sardaukar could have chosen instead of Katy Perry - but most would be deleted by the moderators.

I could of course nominate Olga Kurylenko, though technically she is Ukrainian... [8D] Thus she'd fall under Southern Front commander (pun intended) [:D]

[Telemecus]

Moderators pass a sigh of relief!

Is it me or is it that ever since Ruslana won the Eurovision all Ukrainian girls dress as gothic barbarians?

[Hortlund]

Turn is in the dropbox for you fascist bastards.

[Telemecus]

So the Soviet swine live on to die some more - onward to our victories (oh no said Stelteck's other trigger word)

[EwaldvonKleist]

It would be great if the forces of the southern front could kill this annoying Ewald von Kleist who is always accusing me of copyright violation.
To all soviet commanders: If you catch this guy please hand him over to one of my NKVD regiments!

In other news today Ewald von Kleist, leader of the first panzer group, issued a statement to the press stating

ORIGINAL: Ewald von Kleist
Let us settle this the old fashioned honourable way man to man - pistols at dawn or mano a mano?

[EwaldvonKleist]

I suggest a fist fight, you dont take out a russian bear that easy, even if he has a German name

Let's bring it on, he chose the weapons, I choose the venue. Tomorrow at dawn, Berlin - come in your personal bomber!

[EwaldvonKleist]

Heheh, first Panzerjäger Hortlund needs to give me a plane as he controls the air force. So it were great if you could send a JU 52 or fw 200 (with fair stocks of vodka please).

[Hortlund]

You can have ONE U-2

Russian bear not so fearsome

I believe that is the downgrade swap for the U2, PH is a tough taskmaster

Since when did that stop you taking one - your badboy street cred is slipping.

[thedude357]

So gentlemen, lets begin:

[thedude357]

ahh yes

[vonik]

ORIGINAL: Sardaukar

Dastardly Krauts are threatening our beloved Moscow....Za Rodina! [8D]

Just for the record . Za must be followed by an accusative and not by the nominative (which is rodina).
So the right expression is "Za rodinu !" .

I am afraid that the Stavka has a mole who just betrayed himself

[:D]
The standard method for a commander to get something in this game is to give it personal colour. So I have sent a few loyal subordinates to paint a fancy Pe 8 in the colour of the northern front.
I suppose the only possible downgrade for the U2 is the wright flyer (the first motorized plane) you will maybe get from lend lease?
