Uh toh it's a newbie
« on: July 02, 2007, 03:31:27 PM »
Hi. I'm Shoshonni.
My husband, Gaidin, got me hooked on this game (well the off-line version of it anyway.)
I have yet to try to play on-line. (Yah I'm terrified of it!)

I love to blow things up, so I'm hoping I get guts enough to go where the real fun is soon!

Welcome :)

I think she was referring to Gaidin's inflatable sheep Vans.

I think its excellent that Gaidin's wife likes AH! :)

Shoshonni, I hope you end up liking the on-line portion as well.

Also, there is a scenario coming up that will have B-24's and B-17's.  It is probably going to run sometime in October.  I hope you end up playing in that one.

I heard!  Gaid's told me 4 times already.  My joystick and I are currently having issues however, as I have small hands and cannot find a stick small enough to accommodate my grip. (Yah, I suspect Vans will jump right on that one. Stick. grip. go for it. )

If anyone happens to know of any place I could find a joystick designed for smaller hands, that would be lovely!

I have relatively small hands, too - and the best I've found so far is the CH Fighterstick.  I then cut a piece of foam from a camping mattress and taped it on top of the hand rest on the handle.  

I tried the Sytek Cyborg at one time, which had an adjustable hand rest.  I liked that feature, but hated the sloppiness of the stick itself.

Good luck finding something that fits - and welcome to the game.
