Games filling

Oh I do, but as usual, despite plastering smileys all over the email, people assumed I was seriously cursing the Europeans and most especially the French. I now know to remain silent...the few moments of humor it provided apparently only to me were not worth the outrage to others.

My comment was needless to say, tongue in cheek. I would like to point out that I am NOT European except by geography. I am British,and more specifically English, and I am well aware of our, ahem, heritage. :slight_smile: I thought you stateside fellows had a sense of humour?

You know, it may just be me, but Europeans demeaning any group just because
they are upholding traditions, considering how many wars they fought over
them, is a mite bit hypocritical:)

The US most certainly did not invent everything ever. Some of the
more...colorful, shall we say...things such as war, imperialism,
subjugation, exploitation of less advanced civilizations, we learned from
the best...the Europeans :wink:

Oh, and I am pretty sure that if the Anti-Christ is French, while the
fashion industry may follow him (or her), the rest of us would put up a
pretty vicious fight.

Actually, please don't... Sense of humour aside, and
I amuse quite easily, this Europe vs American thread
is old and tired and keeps on rearing it's tribally
repugnant head here. This time we've dragged a
religion into the mix, at least the 300,000,000 HC bit
was game inspired, but for all else there are other
yahoogroups to have "fun" with I'm sure.

Hi Ken mate. Yeah you can say what you want about the French as far as Im
concerned mate. They all need a good kick up the backend if you ask me.
Arrogant most of them. Alan J.

What JB neglected to mention was our huge advantage in Guild Masters, Heralds, and curse squads. <g>

IF the above armies did battle, ARMY 2 (Rest of World) would be the likely
victor, and would have taken approximately 76% losses, which may leave
about 500,000 troops with a Strength near 2 and a Constitution of around
11.
                        
So yay! We win. (according to the combat calculator). Even if we take the
massive leap of faith that Bush is a 100 rank commander (pah! yea right).
