Re: RE Patch

I've been playing the Mac version lately online. It has the fp with the maps. It's also really to get a game.

Here's a really good example of a new little rush I've worked on with Aztecs. Some have seen this already in team games but this is the first recorded 1v1. Thanks to Joe who asked to see this rush. It's fp 1.1

Re: No end in sight

[quote=""IndyBrit""]@Macabee: My point about which topic of yours I was debating was this: 1) I noted that you utilized the same faulty decision engine that Bush uses (i.e. you ignore data supporting what Bush says and emphasize data supporting the idea that he lies) 2) Therefore...

Re: No end in sight

[quote=""Kaiser_von_Nuben""]@ Al : Yes, in 1941 the U.S. military was woefully underequipped. The Depression wrought havoc on the economy and military spending plunged throughout the 1930s. It was so bad that American troops did not even have guns to train with in 1940-1941; they...

Re: No end in sight

[quote=""IndyBrit""]Macabee: Post 1 - great post. And "surprisingly easy", just as advertised. :D Post 2 - since the intelligence agencies of Britain and Russia thought he had the weapons, that's pretty inconvenient for your world view. Also, the Democrats thought he ha...

Re: No end in sight

[quote=""IndyBrit""] The problem is, that to see the Bush-Iraq business as lying, you have to have a template ready and read all supporting data into your template while ignoring any counter data. This is an engine for bad decisions, as we have seen vividly demonstrated.[/quote] ...

Re: No end in sight

The financial crisis is surprisingly easy to explain, provided you don't listen to politicians explain it. It's pretty clear the causes of the financial crisis start and end in the US. Exhibit A: I went down to a local GM dealer and bought a new car a while back. A month later, I was infuriated by t...

Re: No end in sight

[quote=""IndyBrit""] Well, again, Saddam blocked UN inspections outright for 4 years. In the 90 days that he let them in (seems a short time to go to war in, which is not to Bush's credit) they found banned weapons in two locations (empty chemical warheads and missiles with exces...
