Could be chorline gas from the batteries or maybe they were over fed from a thanksgiving meal at sea ...

Maybe it was thanksgiving with the Kranzes. Those guys really make you work for your dinner! :rotfl:

You make it look like a chore

I hoped you like MP component and will write with more enthusiasm?

Now, now, first there's the initial 1-page draft, then it goes through the system for approval and suggestions, then it's returned and lengthened to 2 pages and goes through the system again, and so on. It also needs publisher approval and copyright registration.

I'm currently proof-reading draft #9. It's one great piece of work, except the ARI is a bit low. I'd like it about 3 full points higher, which means Neal will have to cut down on the word:sentence ratio. I note with approval the whitespace ratio is a nice 20% and that the Simple Measure Of Gobbledygook rating is dead on, though.

Only twenty-nine drafts to go. It'll be out by summer, at which point you'll be able to hunt it down by searching for ISBN number 0-306-40615-2

IN SH IV I would like to see something like her for the swabbies.

Even if she's just seen on the dock like SH III. How about it DEVs ?

Iron Budokan · 02-20-07, 06:52 PM

I agree...she's one hot Wave!

Guido · 02-21-07, 02:34 AM

I think she looks a honey, but her boyfriend looks kinda large!
still that picture on the wall in the radio room would be ideal for those, more alone moments. lol

flintlock · 02-21-07, 12:27 PM

Here she is again (I think it's the same gal).

GSpector · 02-22-07, 04:12 AM

There's something about a lady in uniform

sunvalleyslim · 02-22-07, 04:59 PM

Flintlock,
Me thinks they're two different Babes........Different colored eyes....What do you think?

flintlock · 02-22-07, 05:03 PM

I think she's one in the same, just different lighting conditions. Looks like the same artist too, but hey, I'm just guessing.

Any word on the MP preview?

Onkel Neal · 03-06-07, 09:45 AM

I posted somewhere in this thread that I decided to postpone the MP preview and just cover MP in the review of the game. There were several reasons for this, including time constraints and the usual "I can't discuss it" thing. I will check my notes and audio from the demo tonight and reply with some highlights from that session.

Stryker412 · 03-06-07, 09:51 AM

OK thanks Neal. Even a short paragraph would be good.

Kapitan_Phillips · 03-06-07, 09:58 AM

I still cant get over the utter disdain with which poor Neal exclaimed "You sent me to sea with training warheads?!" :rotfl:
