TxDad & I were on the same squad a few times, which I didn't care about one way or another; just meant one of us always missed squad night to make sure the children were tended to.  I don't like for him to teach me anything; usually ends up with us being angry at one another.  So he and I are both content to let me stink until either someone else teaches me or I learn on my own. 

When we're in different squads, it's nice to be able to stagger our squad nights.  For us it's more important to have just one of us on at a time to make sure that someone is always attentive to the children.  Would be much fun for he & I to play at the same time. :)

I hope y'all have fun! :)

I say go for it let her strap on a plane and see what she's got. My  girlfriend flew with me for a night as a tailgunner it was fun except for the squeelin when we would get ganged by 5 or 6 fighters.. :rofl I thought the neighbors were gonna call the law assuming i was stabbing the cat with a fork. dam surround sound :rofl

she seemed to have a good time while it lasted but she's more of a solitaire or word game player things moved to fast for her in AH.

Heck Yes!  And not to mention, one of two things will happen........ She can't fly and will lose interest.  She can fly and now you have something to share, and grow, with her.  And who knows, (Dirty Mind kicks in).... Have you ever seen 1941?  The B25 scene with Donna Stratton (Nancy Allen)

That could be you dude!!!    :rock


Believe that was a Lockheed Electra and not a B-25.

First off it's not about the game its about her finally compromising to try and spend more time with you, so if your wife is willing to make that kind of compromise in order to spend time with you, at least do something she might find more entertaining then playing WW2 sim. This is a game, that is your family, you make the choice!

   Oh by the way, I didn't hear what she was saying until it was to late, its just a game dude!

Good point, but maybe she really does have and interest in the game.
We have no kids, so we spend some of our evenings playing this instead of plunked in front of the tv like the rest of the world.
Much more entertaining if you ask me  ;)
In fact, my parents came to visit not long ago and I was going through withdrawls while they were here!  :rolleyes:

Ohh...and pink spits rule  :rock

Get her a computer with AHII on it (internet too) and a joystick etc. Meet eachother both online and Kill her/ vulch/HO etc. then she won't play anymore  :D

Who are you to say what your wife can or cannot play, she is her own person. Help her try it out, and support her all the way.

Definitely enjoy the game together like anything else, but beware of the trap.  I am always suspicious of the evil side of our species.  She could be intent on showing how much she is willing to show intrest to your hobbies while secretly scheming to drag you into one of hers.

Someday a time may come where she says, " Ya know, how about we skip squad night and go to the bimonthly antique show 3 counties over.  You'd love it as much as I love flying!"

 :D Just kidding...or am I?  :devil

Good luck!  :aok
