Brooke, I might have some ddr4 sticks laying around that I'd be willing to donate to the cause. Let me know if you're interested I have to go dig them out of my stash.

That is very generous! <S>!  They are pretty valuable these days, though -- you might want to hold onto them in case prices get even more crazy.  For example, 2x8 gb of DDR4-3200 is like $110.

Bingo.. pretty crappy odds unless you enjoy dieing in ack.

I do this with a P47 in two passes rather often. Do radar side pass one, last two pass two. You can even avoid the ack mostly if that’s your thing and pick at them from the outside just might take a few extra runs. Can do it in a 38 too. V bases are a bit tougher but doable.

You an also take down a hanger with a 190A8 but it takes a few rounds in the ack. Still it’s fun to do things not usually done.

Why would anyone ever care about dying in the ack?

Last night I was knit upon login, not much action on that front.. absolutely 0 communication. 
  Just folks hovering around trying to find gv's parked in bushes.  Decided he'll, ill go bish which had only +2 players over the knights.

They had a pretty organized attack going on the rooks... People talking.. working together.... communication.

Ill let you draw the conclusion.

Would the game in the state it is, benefit from two countries?  Yes

Could it improve with folks from all three sides pulling their heads out of the anus?  Definately.

The problems are player created.  A 2 country system would just force folks to fight, especially with ENY factoring in.

We know the latter isn't going to happen, so maybe everyone could make a honest effort to "be the best you can be"

One heavy plane may be able to take out all the barracks, but thats assuming all the guns are down and there are no defenders.  If you miss any than the downtimes are terrible, by the time you go back to get the last ones the others are about ready to pop.

Great opportunity for America to sell Hard Coal to China.

I got no problem with that.  Let them breath it.

But they are looking for sources that CAN"T be cut off by embargo.
That's what is up with all the solar.  They are not green. They just fear their oil getting cut off when they invade Taiwan in 27.

Have you seen some of the horrendous filth in China?  A large portion of their ground water is no longer safe for human consumption. Is that what you want?
(Image removed from quote.)


Anything we do should take the environmental costs into account.  I certainly have no desire to breath poison or drink microplastics and industrial chemicals in my water.


Don't you remember how much dirtier things were in the 70's?

Smog was way worse back then and people thought nothing about throwing trash trash out their car window going down the highway.


We need power AND it needs to be clean.

Great opportunity for America to sell Hard Coal to China. They produce Soft coal which is roughly 30% more pollutive. If people didn't want to own mines, work there, and produce, they wouldnt. But we should certainly reduce China and Indias pollution.

With their population, youll never have non pollution. They should be a great example of why we shouldn't flood America with large scale immigration because we will get to these pollution levels so much faster...

Most energy should be allowed. Its how society advances. People who are anti oil, most are complete nut jobs. Engines are still the #1 most reliable source of energy and I personally dont think humanity will ever run out of oil. All energy forms have their issues and effects on the environment. Its just nature in general though.

No one wants crap water, microplastics, and trash all over their streets. I do feel that is where regulations are necessary, but we shouldn't allow those companies to leave over seas to skirt those expensive regulations and then sell them back to Americans.

I’m always surprised that more people don’t spend time on the barracks strat and then start dumping barracks on the fronts. You can end supplies and base captured before they can even get started.

One heavy plane can take out all barracks at a small fields or vbase. A port is a butt tougher but can be done with a P47. Rest need some buffs if you’re doing it one trip. It’s one of my favorite things to do!

Standard procedure during our old Birds of Prey squad nights under Falcnwing & Shubie in the early 2000's was to pork it if we couldn't take it. Make it useless.
