    • RE: Twilight Struggle

      This is a late response and I’m sure you got more information about the game since posting this message, however, I’m going to answer anyway  :-P.

      I have Twilight Struggle. It is a esay game to learn. The rule book is only 8 pages.  You can sit down and set up the game and read thought the rules as you go. You’ll have it in no time.

      It isn’t a wargame, though, but is fun anyway.

      That’s my point. COD, and games like it, are not realistic. They’re fun, no doubt, but they pale in comparison to RB6 LV for the reasons you note.

      I’m all for smoke grenades, flash bangs, breaching charges whatever.

      If your only defense against snipers in COD4 is to leap around and swan dive then thats a design flaw. However, one could agrue that the only defense against bunny hoppers is to “dig in” with a sniper rifle.  😄

      I my opinion and experience COD rewards the guy how “quakes” through the map blasting with a machine gun, not the guy firing from cover.

      I would rather play a game with a server full of campers then the alternative. Which is a wack of bunny hopping yahoos.

      It is a shame if most severs don’t allow smoke grenades.

      @Imperious:

      Rainbow 6 Las Vegas is the most realistic shooter. Amazing fire fights. I’ve played previous CODuties and they are in no way realistic. Bunny hop central.

      The bunny hop is the only defence against all these campers who camp a mile away and snipe at people who cant see them.

      In real war the real guns are the sprayers and not the snipers. small city house to house combat are won by rate of firepower and NOT people sitting in houses on the outside killing everybody and watching them drop like flys.

      The bunny hop and smoke are the only defense against these types.  The trend now is too camp because you die less times than you kill. Another reason why CTF is the best form of game, because kill/die scores have nothing to do with victory.

      I agree that real guns fights are about supression fire, not how acturate you are. Real gun fights are also about taking cover as bullets are deadly. Hopping down the street to avoid fire should result in you being shot dead by someone who is firing from a in dug position.

      For a game like COD I understand that bunny hopping is important for the reasons you mentioned but, again, it is not realistic. When I was playing Rainbow 6 Las Vages it felt like I was in a real battle. There are shots going off ever where. You are not sure where you are being shot at from. You have limited ammo. You need to be in constant cover. You have to fire blindly to keep heads down…. Etc, Etc…

      @Gewehr:

      Hey goul, whats up, havent seen you in awhile. Still always up for game if your interested…though yesterday I tried playing after 3 weeks of COD4, and …I got slautered  :lol:  :evil:

      I’m still here. I haven’t played a whole lot lately. Yig bought himself a xbox 360 and we have been playing that. Rainbow 6 Las Vages is the best first person shooter I’ve ever played.

      I’m working to 1am this week but if we play Friday or Saturday for that matter I’ll buzz you here. Yig found a new server that has 64 peps most of the time called Iron chirstian or something like that. We’ll have to give it a go.

    • RE: The Dark Knight

      I just saying that the Christan Bale Batman movies have a gritty, down to earth, feel that Tim Burtons wacking, cartoonie, moives just didn’t have. They were dark, perhaps, but in a very wonking why. There was nothing wrong with the actors or the acting in Burton’s films.

      As far as the Joker goes…Jack Nicholson was fine as the Joker. Jack Nicholson is a great actor. However, the Joker shouldn’t be fat, short and in his 50’s. The Joker should be able to “go” with Batman in a fight, not put on some glasses and and make wisecracks as Batman throws him around.

    • RE: "Mood Music"

      You could use the back ground music from “Pearl Harbour” for the Japanese. (I know the movie is weak)

      You know what I mean? Everytime a scene from the moive cuts to the Japs this awesome drum beat kicks in. The best part of that movie is the scene that has a far away shot of Hawaii then a one Zero flies into frame and then another and another until the whole sky is filled with Jap Zeros and that deep, epic, drumming is going on……tight. I get goose bumps watching it.

      Now that I’m thinking about it, in addition to the drumming there is some flutie type piping going on. It sounds very “far easty”

    • RE: CHEATING

      I would give the guy the O’neil death grib. He wouldn’t know whether to s… or go blind.

      Seriously, I would report it, like Ncscswitch says and question the player involved. I wouldn’t continue playing with someone I thought was cheating.

    • The Dark Knight

      Anyone see the preview for this movie. It looks good. It really makes the other batman movies look dumb.

      Brokeback Joker.

      Imperious, is there somewhere to see the rules for your Napoleonic wargame?

    • RE: COD4

      In real life people can shoot while running, but no very accurately. FPS do a poor job of reflecting this.

      I agree with Jermofoot that “dug in” players should have the advantage over the bunny hopping spray and praying machine gun using quakers.

      I hope you got my message Gewehr. I when back to read over what I sent you but I couldn’t find the message so I began wondering if I sent it properly.

      Either way I post here.

      I play mainly on weekends Friday and Sat. when I’m at Yig’s.  But thanks for the invite.

      And only the ‘better’ play always wins in LL?

      Isn’t that the point?

    • RE: COD4

      Though I wouldn’t enjoy being sniped constanly, I have no problem with having to stop or slow down to get a good shot off. I’m tried of people leaping and jumping up and down the street killing as they go.

    • RE: What about an American Battleship strategy?

      @Ender:

      Great analysis, except for - what’s missing - hmm… oh yeah you don’t account for Japan doing anything for 7 ROUNDS!!!

      Guess what - I could checkmate Garry Kasparov in 7 moves if I can work with the assumption that he doesn’t make any moves to counter mine.

      LOL

    • RE: AANeploleonic Wars!?

      It could be good. I dig the Napoleonic era and my favorite military boardgame is “The Napoleonic Wars” from GMT. You could make a game work with the A&A rules. You just need a new map.

      I am working on a A&A game with the card driven machanic very similar to the above mentioned Napoleonic War game.

    • RE: LL v ADS

      @DarthMaximus:

      ADS is just regular dice rolling.

      LL is Low Luck.  You add up the attacking and defending points of all the att and def units divide by six then roll only for the remainder.

      Example

      4 inf, 3 arm vs. 5 inf, 2 arm

      Attacker
      4 inf = 4 * 1 = 4
      3 arm = 3 * 3 = 9

      So attacker has 13 which means 2 hits (13/6) and then you would try and roll for a 1.

      Defender
      5 inf = 5 * 2 = 10
      2 arm = 2 * 3 = 6

      So the Defender gets 2 hits (16/6) and then would roll for a 4 or less for a 3rd possible hit.

      I see, thanks.

      That’s kind of neat.

      On a side note……who smited me! Very uncalled for.
