Isn't there something in the forum rules that requires it?

Thought I'd tune in and see how the verdict on the game was progressing.

Never mind.

Dammit....I miss the 1980's Cold War. It even made the olympics more interesting.

The looming threat of nuclear annihilation was a small price to pay for this.   ;D

I kid. Growing up in the Reagan years, I too have a lot of nostalgia for Cold War stuff. Red Dawn made a deep impression on me  :)

My father was an active duty Marine Officer so I was really immersed in it. Everything he trained for, every weapon developed and every operation was in preparation for the inevitable war.

I played RSR back then and I would cheat just so NATO would wipe the floor with the WP. I would start a scenario and then after a few seconds, select "view replay". The replay would show exactly where the enemy was. Would go back to the game and fire on those positions. Fun? Maybe not, but I was 13 and all I wanted to do was blow up pinko-commie ships (and fiddle with my dongle). Good old days

Having played the tutorials.  Wish they made on-screen buttons instead of letting us memorize all those the keys.

Yeah no tool tips, same with the current buttons.

So gotta print out that key reference for now.

By the way, why is distance measured in yards? Why not nautical miles?
