Sorry for confusing everyone by switching from chili to haggis; what brought haggis to mind was calling a habenero pepper a "Scotch Bonnet" (I think because of it's shape). Anyway, Scotch made me think of, well, Scotty from Star Trek, then a fifth, then haggis. And haggis was the only one of those three that made any sense to this thread... although a fifth of Scotch just might help the weaker members of this board handle tesco's hot sauce...

BattleCruiser vs Battleship where armor is replaced by speed , and a lucky shot and a poor location for storing things that go boom. But there was no magazine in that area and the angle of attack from the bismarks shells should be around 11 degrees.

Good luck solving the mystery.

Director Tsaarx, no apology necessary, those of us who meditate upon the wonders of nature, especially in the area of cuisine, have open minds, however, open stomachs may be a different matter, and I agree with you on the Scotch, tho I prefere Canadian Club myself, but with Tesco's sauce I must admit, a quart would probably be more like it. Man, what a hang over that would be, and at my age to, ahh you youngsters take me back to my youth, the memories, oh what memories, siiiigggghhhhh,

Besides, between this and the # of post thread, it gives us and everyone on the forum 2 places to discuss diverse and yet related topics without taking up the space and time for the more game related ones and bothering those who do not wish to partake in the expansion of numerous areas of discussion. I do hope the Moderators understand and continue to let us use these threads to update ourselves on the game and other related or unrelated realms. These are more like General Discussion threads where everyone may join in and discuss the game or other areas of interest to those of us who play SEIV without delving into specific topics, Since both topics have to do with numbers/Posts it only seems fitting that thats where it should be. I do hope we are not offending those who started these threads.

just some ideas mac

PS. My most sincere apoligies, I just noticed the G&G or Growltigga/Gryphin Thread, I shall move my views to that site in regards to OT banter from now on.

TS: very tasty sounding sauce. it will require a trip to the store, but i might be able to start a batch next week sometime.

a friend of mine has a pickled-pepper recipie that you might like. that is, if you like eating peppers out of a jar with a few cold beers. its a very flexible recipie that basically consists of throwing whatever looks good into a jar of pickling sauce and setting it in the fridge for a few weeks. I will try to dig up the list of some of the favoured ingredients if you are interested.

and if you really like to light your mouth on fire, i could probably be persuaded to post our recipie for death ribs. they are tasty, but the main point of the exercise is to experience the endorphin high from eating them. all joking aside, you will literally burn your hands and eyes if you try to cook these things unprotected.

Mac, calm down, I am sure Gryphin is actually talking about the said naval action and it is not code for anything, ahem that way inclined!

Gryff, that's an easy one, outmoded and spurious tactics (compare to tactics used by KGV and Rodney when they attacked Bismarck), poor deck armour on the Hood, especially over the magazines (as I recall 3/4inch compared to BIsmarcks 41/2 inch) and bloody bad luck - the Hood may have been the largest vessel in the RN but it was probably the most antiquated fleet line unit we had
