Leech 0 Posted September 17, 2002 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2002 Okay, calm down Frosch. *Basks with a proud look on his face* There, that better? :o) Still, least you know when you've been bested. Lots of people I know don't :o) And I was playing nice as well. You can't go mixing frog-people and crazed wolf-people and not expect them to be a little 'ecsentric' though :o) Frosch, you have commented several times that you cannot ever hope to close in on my post total on Mil-Net but you have expressed certain disheartenment that you couldn't :o) So, I can see how Wolf would get that impression. And we should all bask in the glory of the Great Ogre, we should all acknowledge his supreme benevolence and take up arms in prayer to him!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nadinbrzezinski 0 Posted September 17, 2002 Report Share Posted September 17, 2002 Well he could try... but he would have to flood the server... and just do that for days on end :D Nadin, who is just ammused Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moderator Froggy the Great 62652 Posted September 18, 2002 Moderator Report Share Posted September 18, 2002 Well, I read the forum by opening a new browser window for each new topic. †It's easier to reply to each one when you do that, your thoughts are kept straighter when you don't also have to juggle remembering what you've read yet.

Jeremy 1 Posted September 18, 2002 Report Share Posted September 18, 2002 Do you have any windows open besides the forums?? heh!! May I suggest getting a second video card a nd a second monitor? I have that at work and you can have so many more windows open at once. Might help you out!! :D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moderator Froggy the Great 62652 Posted September 18, 2002 Moderator Report Share Posted September 18, 2002 I said it helps, not "it makes me more ridiculously prolific than I am already". Besides, if I wanted to do that, I wouldn't be running Windows. And to yank this kicking and screaming back on topic, I know there are some of you who haven't looked at the CADs for the new CAV minis posted in the Mil-net forums. Go look. Shoo. They're cool.

Jeremy 1 Posted September 18, 2002 Report Share Posted September 18, 2002 Yes, the CADs posted on the Mil-Net are very cool!! I am dissapointed that there was no Duelist though. Wass looking forward to seeing that one!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Leech 0 Posted September 20, 2002 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2002 Yeah, and I'm still a little annoyed, mainly on principle though, that the Ogre wasn't offered up for praise. I say praise because we all know the Ogre is perfect so there wouldn't be any nit picking with it. Of course, my biggest pet annoyance is that I don't have any Ogres yet... but I'm taking solace from the fact that no-one else has any either :o) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moderator Froggy the Great 62652 Posted September 20, 2002 Moderator Report Share Posted September 20, 2002 Yay Ogre, et cetera. Actually, I'm much more excited about the Sultan at the moment. Rotary IF goodness, mmmmmm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chrome 1752 Posted September 20, 2002 Report Share Posted September 20, 2002 Its not like we haven't seen the Ogre before. All of the images that Jimbo sent us were pretty much never seen before. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Leech 0 Posted September 20, 2002 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2002 Yeah I know, but still :o) And I'm more interested in Falcons, Duelists and a couple of other designs. Don't get me wrong, the Ogre is a cool model and I can't wait to spray some paint on them, but as far as tactically versatile and usefulness in general battles they, like all of the super-heavies, are lacking. Still don't mean I won't field one but I would rather see some things which are of more everyday use, like the Knight, Tsuiseki and Regent. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moderator Froggy the Great 62652 Posted September 20, 2002 Moderator Report Share Posted September 20, 2002 I tend to find lights and mediums (media? dunno) to be much more tactical use than a superheavy anyway. If I'm facing a Rhino, I want a Rhino, or at least a Gladiator, but for anything else, give me a pair of Dictators any day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wolf 0 Posted September 20, 2002 Report Share Posted September 20, 2002 Just for you Frosh, as I'm just catching up to what's been going on here. :p :D Anyway, after a few games, most of us figure on using the "super" heavies for more defensive or major terrain games. I'm not sure about any of the battle reports from Origins ( HINT, HINT!!!) but with larger battle fields, the speed of those CAVs becomes a liability. As much as I love the Ogre, I'll only be using it on a limited basis, as my "mediums" and "lights" will be handling most of the work too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moderator Froggy the Great 62652 Posted September 20, 2002 Moderator Report Share Posted September 20, 2002 On a small field, the Rhino rules. On a larger field, the enemy calculates how many turns it'll be before the Rhino makes it into range :laugh: and then has that many turns to kill all the non-Rhino enemy units.

nadinbrzezinski 0 Posted September 20, 2002 Report Share Posted September 20, 2002 Or hurt it with IF... :D Nadin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moderator Froggy the Great 62652 Posted September 20, 2002 Moderator Report Share Posted September 20, 2002 Well, yeah. The trick is to somehow channel the Rhino into something he can't see around but you can fire over. I have successfully done this never. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
