Title: Bloody Tango

He's linked to the posts about the new Napoleonic Greens.  I don't mind Leon and the lads getting a bit of publicity,  but he's put it on TMP.  We'll be knee-deep in Yanks.

Oh no!
The occasional one like Bigjackmac are great, but soon it will be Mexicans and Canadians moaning about the Americans too...

Oh, are they here already? Sorry guys.

Love you all.  :-*

Have the potboy barricade the kitchen door, have Smythers load the Holland and Holland's, and get the port,  brandy and malts moved to the billiard room.

"If it showed up blue it was the RAF and we ducked, if it showed up white it was American and everybody ducked and if it didn't show up at all it was the bl**dy Luftwaffe!" - ex-panzerwaffe father of a German ex-girlfriend

I really enjoyed chatting to the father of my German ex-girlfriend back in the seventies. He had been conscripted at 16 in late 44 and was on the western front. the most popular thing on the radio was the BBC Home Service. I think it was pretty rough for him. His wife at that time was a girl living in Dresden. She was none too complimentary about the RAF.

"The occasional one like Bigjackmac are great..."

Yeah, I heard that too, but I wouldn't put too much into it if I were you  ;)

Having said that, we seem to have a great little forum here that doesn't experience even a fraction of the bullsh!t drama that TMP does; so why don't we stop trying to export it here?  I'll never understand what drives some folks to complain about a forum on a different forum, but that's just me I suppose...

Let's get back to wargaming.  I'm hoping to get a game in today, tomorrow, and Sunday; yes, plans never survive first contact, but I vow I will get at least two of those planned three in. 

V/R,
Jack

LH,

Yeah, in the US we call that 'stirring the sh!t.'  You seem to have a bit of a fixation:

If we were schoolkids, I'd tell ya to stop pulling her pigtails and just ask her to the dance.

Usually I exercise better sense and stay away from your posts about TMP, and since it's too late to stay out of it but not too late to exercise better sense, this will be my last post on the subject as I'd much rather talk about wargaming.  Not having the ignorant crap TMP is plagued with is kind of the attraction here.

V/R,
Jack

I agree. Who gives a flying f**k what they say on another forum? Let them worry about us.
