Hehe, what´s that bad with The Who? I don´t like it much either, but they sure did play LOUD. There are a lot more ´heavy´ elements in their music than in 99% of the other bands on the list. This is more about rock classics. Black Sabbath shouldn´t even be on this list but of course they had to...

They are, but you got lucky too. Wirbelwind is also deadly against infantry. I like to keep my SPAA in the same hex with a tank. When a plane targets a vehicle in that hex, it tries to destroy the AA before tank AND the AA gets more shots.

Any movies from the finnish front? The Unknown Soldier(1955) was banned in Russia until couple of years ago.

I´ve been thinking... Has anyone noticed, how easy it is to change "on-board" artillery missions? If you have used the mortar etc. before in a battle, you can get 0.1 timing in a same turn. No 2 hex radius shifting is needed. You only need to call the mission with the unit itself. Just click...

Yeah, the first day of drinking. After a week there´s nothing. No joy no sorrow, just black darkness.

Tuntematon sotilas beats Rukajarventie not by points it´s a KO in furst round. Even tho made in 1955, it´s very professional. The language in TS is impossible to translate, and I think a lot of it´s glamour is lost with it if you don´t speak finnish. It´s hard to explain. It´s legendary it has...

Yes thats the sentence I didn´t understand somehow but it´s clear now. Thanks guys. So calling them means you better use them effectively. Though it´s often too late to call them when things are bad already. And if called before things go bad you better annihilate your enemy totally.

Doesn´t anyone really have no idea about this? I know it is usually agreed upon beforehand whether they are called or not, but please, anyone can reply. I´d really like to know.

I´m not sure how the victorypoints are calculated. How much points does my opponent get if I call in reinforcements and he doesn´t? What if I don´t use the whole reinforcement-pool but only 25% or 50% ?

What if that target unit spots your unit before the sixth hex and starts shooting? Will it shoot over 6 hexes?

Funny. I think that´s when the movie really starts.

So...how is the tournament going? How about the next one? I am most anxious, and so is my new avatar.

Has anyone played tank simulations? Is there any good ones? Something was recently published but I can´t remember the name.

I have 8.1, I didn´t know 8.2 was out.

Two things in SPWAW makes me :hmmm: Finnish Jaeger infantry. When they are hit, they almost always take casualties normally; but sometimes they are hit like tanks are. I hear the "klink", "klonk" or explosion, and the unit is wiped out. Huh? Do their bicycles explode, or are they just so...

Perfect probably. With all the sweets on.

Football world cup is the only sport I´m least bit interested. It´s once in 4 years, so there´s a certain dignity in it. Finland is never going to get there, but so what.
