Apparently, your countrymen do not feel the same antipathy towards Bud.

In the UK, Budweiser holds a 14 percent share of the premium-packaged lager (PPL) sector and is the number-one PPL in bars, clubs and restaurants with a 35 percent share of the on-premise segment.* Overall, Budweiser is the country’s second best-selling PPL.

Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

On closer examination of the released study it was found that participents of violent crime with the use of firearms in the UK, intake of imported beer factored in an alarming percentile.
    A total of 85% of those convicted of firearm related crimes at the time of arrest had consummed large amounts of American imported beer.
   This was broken down to 78% PPL, with the remainder being onsite sale. The findings went on to say

A  thought for the future on fuel............

The small fuel drum objects are hard to see and harder to hit........

You can place many of them at many different points around a field........................ ......

This way you do not have to have arena fuel set up as requiring 1000lb bombs but can make it realistic yet more difficult to attrit.

"Most things are possible...whatcha got in mind?"

I just want to be able to use the terrain and add the strat and fields in myself. Also I need to know if the terrain editor can assign specific planes to specific fields (as you can see im 100% new at using the editor hehe).


SRI I emailed before checking the thread... Yes, you can assign planes and vehicles to the fields with the terrain editor.

I know all about this because the CT staff and I change these values often to reflect gameplay issues for our maps in the Combat Theatre.


Fork...

Of course I know that all of that can be set in the editor. Unfortunately, this is an MA terrain. I don't have the power to adjust things like that...only the Great High Muckity Muck of AH does :).

cc NB.  Maybe when you send the map to Skuzzy, you can convince him that for your updated map he needs to set the fuel hardness to .750.

no dont add fuel bunkers. THat will just double the smoke at a field. Make them tougher if you must.

And Fariz. you say that some of the jabos die on the way to the field..doentst that happen to the goons too?
