I went with the assumption that he was at least 18, 19, 20ish when the site started.  I suspect that he was older then that but this site is about 8 ()  years old he would have to be older then that by that logic. 

uhh...     hmm... Maybe if I was old enough to vote in 1995 that would help.

Disclaimer:  Mr. Jensen no harm is ment to from from this pole.  I have just noticed we have a large spectrum of ages here and was wondering how they rank the owner / operator of this site in relation to them selves.

This should be good.

I agree the game is awsome. My complaint, as well as other's is just the quality and quantity of some of the components. It's cool to have nation spacific pieces, but if it means poor quality I think it's appropriate to complain about it. If all of the parties involved with the production of this game had decided to use even cardboard counters I'd have been happy. At 100.00 on average in retail stores people are going to get a little upset.

I shouldn't have to canibalize my other A&A editions to make a proper game.

I did have an AC that was curved (AAR esp.) and cast poorly and wouldn't sit flat on the board until I heated and bent it straight. I also have little white flecks in alot of the other pieces. Some ships have the super-structures half missing. I still am going to enjoy this game alot and am looking forward to playing but for money someone pays for this game I genuinely feel a little jipped.

This has been my experience with both AAR and AA50.

Well said, +1.

Wow thank's for the info +1.

You mean like making a modern A&A game based on current political powers?

The UN color?

He, winter is coming to Spain too. Here in Cordoba ... it's raining!  About 15º C. (not idea about the ºF) At 8:00 AM we even need gloves! It's a frozen world! 

Sorry I don't feel to bad that's 59* F.

My -13* F = -26* C

But you wouldn't feel bad for me in the summer I don't like it over 90* F / 32* C.   

How hot does it get in Cordoba?

Hello All,

     Winter is falling upon us again.  In my neck of the woods it's in the form of several feet of snow.  Currently the temp. is -13* F.

     I was wondering how winter in y'alls backyards.

Please keep this from turnig into a global warming / PD.

11HP20,

     I think that we can agreet that it is an effective weapon, just not a practical one to lug around.

Colt hands down. 

Age has nothing to do with it.  the "ma duce" M2 .50 cal has been in the US Army since late WWI if I remember correctly.  It beats the snot out of the US Army's newer M249, M240B.  Yeah they are smaller caliber but the point it newer isn't always better.

My uncle is a retired Infantry Office from the US Army.  He spent 4 years in Korea and some time in Japan.

He was part of a think tank at the time was working on some kind of project comparing eastern and western personalities (unsure spelling).  Now that you have me wracking my memory banks I will have to call him this weekend.

He said that the Army concluded that for the first wave of Toyoko the allies couldn't do it with less then 1,000,000 men.

During WWII the US Army had 110 Divisions.  I don't think that could have been all at one time.  Depending on the type of division that could range from 10,000 - 15,000.

So with an average of 12,500 soldier to a Division you would have needed 80 Divisions JUST FOR THE FIRST WAVE!     

Thank G-d for that guy named Atom and his bomb   

Yes I also agree with Andy. 

If the US divides its forces (Europe / Pacific) and the other Allies do thier part the US can create a stale mate.  Not saying that that's a good thing but that is a very influential place to be.

Italy may make him loose interest just by dealing with the budget constraints.

wow IL,  I hate to see you tell them how you really feel...

  ...

I may have just lied to you 

IL,

     The following is my reaction after looking at your link to what WOTC people do all day:

<falling out of office chair>  <uncontrollable laughter> <attempt to stand up... fall down again>

"IL, IL stop <laugh> I can't... <more laughing> I can't... breath"

<puts hands on desk to pull self up... see's WOTC worker> <uncrontrollable laughter> <falls down again>  <hits head on side of desk nocks self uncouncious>  <time elapse 45 minutes>

<places this post with smirk on face> +1
