Semi-OT but not really

Does anyone know of a website that has mp3s of French Foreign Legion songs? I could ask Pierre, Heinz and Rudi to sing them, but none of them can sing.

Baie Dankie,

Re: Why not jet AOPs?

Why not jet AOPs? Because you don't have the rank to call them in. The Mirages fly out of Onandagua and the photointerp is done there, or in Windhoek. By the time it gets to you, the pics are...

Re: How do real life armies clear cities?

Re: Possible error in Rhodesia

Re: Possible error in Rhodesia

After 1963 the SAS are called Codos and Paras. That was a design decision by SPCAMO. This is so SAS units can be both groundborne and airborne, as there is no paracommando class in the game. I...

Re: How do real life armies clear cities?

Something we don't have to do in the game, but armies have to do in reality, is consider the political implications of an action. If the city is an enemy city, and there's a war on (WW2 is an...

Re: WINSPWW2?

Does any have a notion as to what nations will be included? I presume, every one that was in the Dos version, but what others?
