    • RE: Historical Flaws of the US Democrat and Republican parties..

      @Yanny:

      The Democrats basically went “Don’t elect us and we leave the Union”, causing the civil war.

      The Republicans during the 1920s set up the Great Depression.

      Actually the Dmoecrats split into two parties in the election of Lincoln. To southerners the election of Lincoln was the ultimate offense against them because he was for making new states free soil. The Republicans of the 19th century were the more progressive and liberal party and the Democrats of the 19th century were the more conservative party. Nowadays that seems to have reversed.

    • RE: Swiss Egyptians Sue Jews for 5000 year old theft…

      @Janus1:

      :roll: this really ranks among the stupidest lawsuits, and there are some stupid lawsuits

      The Jews could also counter-sue against the Egyptians that the gold and utensils were payment for their service as slaves. The Jews weren’t paid at all for their work and after 430 years of slavery (not including until modern times) the Egyptians owe compensation to former slaves. Let’s not forget compensation for throwing Jewish males into the Nile. That was mass murder on Pharoah’s part and surely the Egyptians have to pay for that.

    • RE: The US tries to rule the world… but chaos seems to follow

      @sherman28:

      I really don’t think that the United Nations is a measure of generosity.
      Pleas don’t give me that the US hasn’t paid its dues (which IS true).
      US foreign aid makes up a goodly chunk of the Federal budget.
      I would like to know who you feel contributes more. I can tell you
      US $$ aid to help defeat AIDS in Africa is MORE than the rest of the world combined. That seems pretty generous.

      Viet Nam I WILL go there my friend. This is a topic I am not afraid to defend. You did not answer the question. Which was “do you really beleive that the Gov’t of Nvn was democratic.”
      The morality of communism is a different issue but I am happy also to
      discuss it.

      Somalia- there was a small UN releif force there that was shot at and bullied around by warlords until the US Marines went there to sort it out!
      Where is the selfishness?

      Ethiopia- the US took control of a crumbling UN releifg effort in 1987.
      the people stopped starving where is the self interest?

      Kuwait- We liberated their county and haven’t (as usual) asked for payment
      where is the selfishness?

      Serbia- The US took command of a weak Nato comiittment and in 80 days of air and missle strikes toppled Milosevic and insured the World Court would try him for War crimes. Where is the selfishness?

      Iraq-Hey we finished the job that we should have finished a while ago.
      The Mass graves un covered made me think back to WW2 and conjured up names like Belsen, Auschwitz Buchenwald. You can go there and
      if you don’t understand the meaning of “all that is necesarry for Evil to triumph is for Good Men to do nothing” then you have no heart.

      Whether North Vietnam was a democracy or not is irrelevant. You cannot force a democracy upon people who do not wish to have it and who do not respect it. It will simplycollapse and turn into a dictatorship. Democracy is something that has to evolve over time in societies.

      @El:

      SOURCE :
      http://www.memri.org/bin/articles.cgi?Page=archives&Area=sd&ID=SP55603

      …thaaat’s right! 5000 years ago those Evil Jew monkeys stole all the gold and jewels in Egypt and the ran away in the middle of the night unbeknowst to the Pharoah.

      1. Isn’t it against the law of all slave owning civilisations for slaves to run away? More charges are pending…

      2. That’s the longest statute of limitations on record… and only if you can read Arabic…or is it 5000 year old Egyptian? Yeah, yeah, that’s it! An even more exclusive club to make it easier to silence the infidels…

      3. Waaaait a minute! Isn’t Pharoah a “living god?” Aren’t gods supposed to be omniscient or does that only apply to the G-D of the Judeo-Christian cultures? Well, the Greek gods were fallable, so I guess…

      First of all, there’s no such thing as Judeo-Chrisitan culture or civilization. Secondly, in that case the Jews should be sueing the Vatican for possession of Jewish artifacts that Titus took to Rome when he destryed the Second Temple in 70 CE. The menorah and other valuables are clearly depicted on the Arch of Titus and the Vatican has never denied having them. Jews should probably also be sueing Ethiopia for possession of the Jewish ark of the covenant which is said to still be there.

    • RE: Worst Villians of All Time

      @TG:

      Oh man… Megatron was such a badass. I use to remember seeing him on TV (this was before Beast Wars took over an destroyed the once brilliant Transformers series) and having to wet my pants because he was such a badass. 😎

      I liked the animation of Beast Wars. I think Mainframe is planning on re-creating the original Transformers with their better animation.

    • RE: Help with a Star Trek A&A variant

      @UKcommander:

      Also, E.G., I must disagree with your comment about the Federation only worrying about the defense of Earth, even though Betazed is not one of the Federation’s capitals, it is a major planet, and was taken by the Dominion. Plus, I believe increased patrols occured in all Federation capitals and major planets.

      I don’t know about making the Federation having to research some of their most powerful ships. Plus, Ambassador classes, although used partly in the war, were decommisioned, I believe, when the Galaxy-class was introduced.

      Also, I’m not real sure about the DS9 rule that you mentioned. One of the great things about Axis and Allies, at least this is what I think, is that you can change history. The DS9 rule would take this away from the game.

      Yet when the Federation ws going to liberate DS9 Starfleet Command only mentioned the defence of Earth as a concern and not any other planet. This is not to say that the other planets are not important, it is just that since Eart hsi the capital of the Federation it is the most pivital planet for the Federation to hold.

      True, you can change history, but even Axis & Allies has some historical realism to it. This rule would simply make DS9 an important base to hold. You can also make the rule expire if the Federation liberates DS9. Therefor, if the Dominion re-take the station again, the rule no longer applies. You could also make the time limit rather large to allow the Federation a bit of breathing room.

    • RE: Whats in the iron blitz?

      The AI is horrendously terrible in Iron Blitz. All the bugs from the original are still there unfortunately. Iron Blitz would be very good for multiplayer, especially with the built-in scenarios and scenarioeditor.

    • RE: Take Spain

      @haxorboy:

      If you are in the position to throw 8 troops on the Europe mainland and want them to count, then Spain is an excellant option esp. if the UK can’t hold the waters around them for a landing in Norway. And you would be surprised how much this throws the Ger. strat all to the way side if the US starts up a train of 8 troops per round landing in Spain, WE falls pretty quick and then it is just a matter of time.

      And if the UK cannot hold out for landings in Norway, what stops the Germans from pounding the transports used to attack Spain when the troops land into nothing and forcing the Allies to completely rebuild the transports they need to funnel troops to Europe? If the Japanese are advancing in the east, Germany can just being to build up for an invasion of Spain while the US and Britain have to rebuild those transports (losing 4 of them is quite a bit of troops lost).

    • RE: Adding a nation…

      @TG:

      yet Spain had the youngest general since Napoleoin, Franco, who was very competent.

      In this game you act as the general

      Canada could be an option, but I either see them as too weak or giving the Allies too much of an advantage. What does adding Canada as a country offer to game? It serves the same function as UK (and you don’t really want two powers doing the same thing). Of course you could add an element by forcing UK to act mainly on South East Asia.

      Canada would convoy troops to Britain. If Canadian transports are destroyed, a rule could be added that the Allies all lose IPCs.
