Post by: Ponyace on January 28, 2010, 05:36:26 PM: Oh boy, this looks exciting! A desperate last-ditch effort by the Axis to seek vengence on the Allies, with only their longtime enemy, Britain, in position to stop them.
I can't wait to register!

Bring on the MUSTANG IV!!!!! :rock

Title: Re: Next scenario: The Final Battle
Post by: 4440 on January 28, 2010, 09:11:56 PM: Gentlemen and Ladies as well, we have the unique opportunity to change the outcome of history. With Hitler's final act of cowardice, our brilliant commanders can now force the allies to accept our terms to end this conflict.

Success in Britain's backyard will only show that our resolve has not diminished. Intelligence has shown that the allied commanders in charge of this operation have long since seen their prime and are vulnerable to tactics that border desperation.

Germany has at its disposal some of the most advanced weponry of the war. We will use it to its greatest potential and again stop the advance from the west.

Sure you can expect it...like a harvest....

Just don't expect an answer as to when it happens...

Grape picking is a art...nobody can tell you when to pick the grapes...only when it is time TO pick the grapes....

When it goes down fire up the Presses...be prepared to make wine (not whine)....

Post by: Brooke on January 30, 2010, 04:48:17 PM: It is open now.

(I intended to open it Friday night, but had guests over from after work until late and wasn't able to get to it then.)

Anyway, it's open, and we'll see who has the distinction of being first one in (other than me, as I always go in right on opening to test it).

Awesome...
Our squads Newsgroup server recently took a big dump and I just posted the opening. Not sure if I will get any hits but would like a couple or more to jump in and help me choose before I choose our preference. I have me eye on an Allied slot but could be had for the right price! :)

In less than a minute you replied! :) I am impressed. We will need to preserve this moment until I get more from the squaddies. I want to be fair and let them make suggestions too! It's only the fair thing to do.
Thanks 4440!

Thanks,
2ace
Title: Re: Next scenario: The Final Battle
Post by: 4440 on February 18, 2010, 10:48:07 PM: People do miss frames, but not registering may not get the spot you would really like. Just don't register if you are gonna miss half or more. Thats just my take.

Either way, it will be a great time, both sides are boasting some really skilled guys.
