Default Good to be back!

From M1TP (DOS), to M1TP2, to Panzer Elite (heavily modded), to Steel Beasts 2 - they were all good in their own way. None have me like Steel Fury:Kharkov 1942.

This game has its problems, but with the community mods it is, and will be even moreso, an armor classic.

If you haven't tried it yet, FORGET THE DEMO! I almost relied on the demo to get an impression of the game. Thankfully, in the midst of a good Sunday morning caffeine high I broke down and bought the game online. By Sunday afternoon I was hooked.

If you haven't tried it yet, give it a shot. There's nothing like walking AP into a T-34 from 2 miles out, and this sim has the extensive landscapes to see that far in detail, and to keep your eyes from getting bored.

Greetings from Chucky! My first post here.Hi to all.
Fred,I too go back a long way with tank sims.I played M1 Tank Platoon to death on my trusty old Atari ST.I have owned just about every tank sim that was released since then.I have SP Pro PE but I never find the time to give it a real work-out.
I also played the Steel Fury demo and decided that it wasn't for me.However being a sucker for tank sims I bought it and was very surprised with what I got.

Let's just hope the modding community can make it even better! God Bless those guys

Wrong answer. The correct answer would be:
"Since getting SBP I haven't played any other sim."

I think my problem is I have too many Sims.I end up skimming over them all and not concentrating on just the one.
I get bored easy I think.It was the same with my women
Add to that I am addicted to Left 4 Dead and RO and there just never seems enough hours in the day (or evening).
Roll on retirement,I can then play 24/7

This was true for me as well. But the Black Shark managed to wrestle me from the Steel Beasts grip... at least for now. I guess the soon to be released SB Pro PE uppdate might mean that the Shark will be on the tarmac a bit more again. But at the moment I really enjoy flying the helicopter around and watch the scenery. Oh, sometimes I launch a weapon as well...

Cheers Porphy

Didn't I told you?

Now, you need to learn Skybird's mantra, which goes like this:

1. The moderator is right.
2. The moderator is always right.
3. I will allway immediately believe and do what the moderator tells me.
4. And I'll do so in advance, because the moderator is the tanking god who transcends both past and future.



Porphy,

I see you have been a bad boy lately... [slap-slap, flatsch!]
