I asked August, not FF. :hmmm:

And if you liked the Tiger then you'll love the King Tiger, now with cup holders.

If the tiger wasn't slow and cumbersome enough for you, we've made it more slower and more cumbersome.

Looks really cool in the show room. (petrol logistics and service not included).

An if you buy a King Tiger now, we'll install a free sound system, so you can "blitz" to this tune:

My Tiger Tank slippers keep my treads warm on those bitter Eastern Front winter nights.

Spitfire - bubble dome cockpit, elliptical wings, sometimes clipped edges.
Hurricane - greenhouse like cockpit, rectangular wings, wooden frame with canvas covering.

The one in York had no wings :O:

That's the special edition, for new pilots.:hmmm:

If you pull the wings off this model British warplane you really can have a Tempest in a teapot.

1) There are reasons as to why it turned into a two-front war.
2) Russia's invasion, that was also inevitable, since that communist pig ( who ended up killing more people than Hitler but no-one gives a crap about that do they) would have broken the non-aggression pact anyway.
A matter of time.
3) Over-engineered? Well, we are known for producing some dam fine armament, including those 'lame' Tigers.
Certainly dented a hole into the Allied efforts.
And 1 country against the rest of the world.
Took you guys a while to defeat us. :haha:



What link? What qstn?
Why ask August who the haters are?
Pretty easy to see who the realists are and who the people are who line the Hollywood's pockets with green backs to get their 'fix' of propaganda.
Can't see why i should link you anything to back up my claims as to why this movie is anything other than garbage and the reason why i posted this thread.
If that's not clear enough, then you writing in caps isnt going to get you those links.

Not my problem that people think this movie is so dam good and realistic and 'balanced' and that ss troops marching down a road in 1945 singing, and SS not using their Panzer fausts against a crappy allied tank and running blindly into machine gun fire again and again is good stuff.

Because no Yanks or Brits or Frogs or Commies (or the rest of the allied band of warriors) were ever dumb and stupid or you know, did stuff that was abhorrent or stained with moral implications or reprehensable actions or, just running into gun fire blindly, or not using the weapon to at least attempt to destroy the other sides' armor, or....
On a person to person ratio, since the Germans were vastly outnumbered, i'd wager a bet that there were a hell of a lot more dumb soldiers on that side than ours:)
But then that wouldn't make a good movie now would it, depicting the allies as unrealistically dumb and stupid.
I'd beg to differ. I think it would make great entertainment. Since firstly, it would be nice and 'balanced', and secondly, allied troops getting caught up in fire fights and loosing badly due to their inept fighting skills due to their dumb decision-making would be swell :)

Fury, what a joke, the movie should be called: Let's kill some (more) Germans. Yawn.
Hollywood sux, it panders to those who want to feel good about portraying Germans as Nazis and that when you kill a German, it's a good day's entertainment.
Again, what a joke.

I sense that some one is emotionally invested in the matter. Maybe that person should rest, as even a Russian such as me brainwashed with the GPW myth (myth as in the cultural wake WW2 left rather than improper historiography of it) doesn't feel the need to be enraged.

Well there you go. :yep:

:har: :agree:

The Red Alert scenario, with Hitler out of the way Stalin would go on a European tour'de commie with his red army band :hmmm:
I'm sincerely not mocking you, I thought about this ever since I realized what the Red Alert intro meant. There were 2 madmen in Europe at that time. One went against the west and lost, the other went with the west and the west gave him a mandate to conquer east. IIRC the UK actually planned they'd launch an invasion of the Soviet Union in alliance with Hitler.

I'll try and dig up a link later. It's still to early

in 1945 there was Operation Unthinkable, but it is somewhat different as to what you describe.

As to the madmen - Soviets did not have an objective to exterminate everyone else for the living space, so I think they were somewhat better than the NAZIs.

I meant only Hitler and Stalin.
Hitler killed millions because of their beliefs and background, Stalin killed millions because of their political beliefs and sheer paranoia

Kill millions or kill millions. There's no one better than the other because of different objectives.
