a question...

well, 2 actually:

What's a toolshedder?

And what is this 'CT' allegedly supposed to give us (sorry, been away from the game a while) ?

[Denholm]

Well, if you were smart (which you're not, remember that). You would know to go here for further information on CT.

A toolshedder:
It is what furballers call people who destroy tactical or strategic targets.
In theior opinion we are lesser beings since we decide to fight the inanimate objects rather than endlessly chasing other cartoon airplanes in circles for hours on end.


As far as CT:
Ever play Flying Fortress or the Mighty 8th or whatever it was called?
Kinda like an RPG of a WW2 pilot.  You have a character (pilot) with attributes (skills)  you pick a unit and fly missions created by the AI.  Realistic missions, long range, high alt bombing raids/fighter escort if you are Allied, bomber intercept if you are Axis.  
Think of it as a special event on steroids.

Thanks, Tiger.

I vaguely recall people discussing it on 200 and less vaguely becoming worried about how my character would never make it past peeling potatoes.

Don't worry... I'll end up in the brig, could you bring me some bread and water when you're done peeling?

Please don't resort to these Kindergarten tactics to get my attention, Denholm. Your plentiful contributions to my previous threads have been noted, but I remain disinterested, and would appreciate a dignified cessation of any further attempts at getting me to like you.

Blustering stiff upper lip doesn't cover the oversensitive jerkleg reaction to being made fun of enough to pull off the John Wayne/PeeWee Herman/Steve McQueen (I'm just a tough-cool-funny guy that wants you to like me and respect me and pay me attention) multiple alter-ego thing.

Though I do think you asking questions of the community (obvious subject matter or not) is indeed the road to enlightenment and I applaud you for making the initial effort.

Actually, I'd be thrilled to even get into the air. Bought a Mac to replace my old PC--which was already barely sufficient to run AHII.

If I do, however, I'll probably be seeing you on the ground on a regular basis.

Well you shot your own foot. Shoulda asked here first.

But, believe it or not I sympathize. Relate somewhat even.

I needed a tighter, less clunky system to use for school and work, so I took the advice of some people I trusted and went with a mac. So far, been quite happy with it. Lack of AH is a drawback, but I figure AH will still be there when I get a big PC to run it the way it was meant to be run.

[Arlo]

Well that's fully understandable. Priorities affect the decisions we make. With me it's a head to head battle with the landlord over limitations of IPs. Maybe soon we'll both be back in the battle and you can have the satisfaction of flaming my tail for giving you a hard time here.

Check the forms, there are people with Intel based Mac's who say they are running AH2 faster then on their PCs.

No kidding... I sure will. Thanks Easy.

I don't mind the hard time as much as you probably think I do, Arlo... Besides, you have to get up pretty damned early in the morning to fall victim to me in the arenas.
