  1. Hi, was wathcing this doc late alst night on military channel. Very interesting about the Cuban missile crisis of '62 with a lot of interviews with military officails, agents etc. whatw as interesting was that the program mentioned the Russians put on Cuba, battlefield nuclear weapons to deal with a planned invasion of the island after airstrikes. The 10 US divisions or 90,000 men that were planned to invade were not at all prepared for battlefield nukes and no doubt would have been incinerated from them. Also mentions the russian subs with nuke torpedos on standby at the time. reall good documentary.
  2. hi, man. Soory to hear of your car probs. i drive a 2002 Chevy malibu which i got in 2004 used at 18k miles. has a v6 engine and runs ok. i only use it locally, to work, shopping, hosiptal, stuff like that. not so much on highway. the newer model malibu's are cool, but then again you need money for those. But you mayw ant to consider Malibu series.
  3. That looks awesome. plz release soon.
  4. Hey, Syrinx, Nice skin! Keep em comin.
  5. Been playing around with the Bronco in WOV and noticed this on wiki about a possible modernized variant that may be developed in future. See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OV-10_Bronco Wonder what it would look like in Tk;s sims?
  6. It is unfortunate. I hail from Boston, MAssachusetts and technically we live on a fault that has been dormant since the 1700's. Sad thing is that if it became active here suddenly, most of the buildings don't meet the earth.quake standards like in Cali or elsewhere. They would come crumblin down. it would be a major devestation.
  7. Wow, so soon? I wonder if Congress would approve it ot not considering there is still fighting there and the country could head into instability after American troops leave.
  8. like the top pic.-blue
  9. nice, keep it up.
  10. Hi, I still have a YAP ! install and the helo's explode on runaway when taking off. Was there ver a patch released for this or a quick fix? I know YAP 2 is out but want to know if a fix was done beforehand. thx. The hueys keep exploding.
  11. Hi, there. pasko's ww2 birds are good like the He-219 and of course all of a-teams models. i too love ww 2 and have several installs on mnay drives. My fav is MAW install which contains excellent menu screens and desert scenery. Also, have a TOW install or nightfighting against allied bombers. i use WOI for that but WOE patched to current standards would be good expecially the atmospherics at night.
  12. Interesting article I found surfing net on supplying Malta. see here' http://www.naval-history.net/xAH-MaltaSupply01.htm
  13. Cool vid on the battle; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SasYIwlb-1Y...feature=related
  14. Another key ship with some pics: http://www.bluestarline.org/brisbane1.html
  15. hey, kevin, glad you can join us. iw ould really like to see this come to fruition as I think this would make for a good campaign with the key being USS Ohio getting through intact or a similar amt of shipping to the island. here is another link to a merchant ship in 1942 ss clan campbell. http://www.thewrecksite.com/wreck.aspx?31424
  16. Hi, Skip. does this help you for the Ohio? http://www.modelshipgallery.com/gallery/se...c/pc-index.html
  17. what he said.
  18. Hi, which book do you have? So far in my MAW install, we have the scenery and most of the planes involved. as for the ships we need what you mentioend above and some we already have. the Italian battleships have different names and dont think we have. we have Cesare and Cavour but perhaps use the generic battleship and cruisers and destroyers for Sf and retexture them for British, American and Italian sides. same with subs. we do have a torpedo boats from spanish civil war. The American carrier Wasp participated also. Only real prob would be the Ohio tanker and the Freighter ships used as weonly have small cargo ship from spanish civil war and Liberty ship. As for the campaign victory details, what percentage of shipping needed to win the campaign for the Axis?
  19. Hi, has anyone ever thought of doing the malta convoys during the Battle for malta oin WW2? i read there wer 35 attempts or so to resupply the island despite heavy Italian and german air and naval attack. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malta_Convoys
  20. Interesting read on the first british carrier based raid in ww1. see here" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuxhaven_Raid
  21. Hi, just wondering will OFF phase 3 be made available for digital download in near future? thx.
  22. was browsing on WWI seaplanes and noticed this one. Would be cool if someone could focus on seaplanes like this. See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sopwith_Schneider also, here's a read on a carrier for these seaplnes back then for the Royal navy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Ben-my-Chree
  23. Hi, this is sad and I offer condolences to your friend. he did not deserve this. It is for this reason i have no plans to get married and have to deal with this crap. i believe in living a single life which means more independence and freedom than have to deal with the big L word(lawsuit or divorce). It sucks, but this is reality.
  24. Hmmm, interesting indeed. Imgine if a silent F-16 was initiated ot keep the Viper series going? Definitely for the export market.
