Now I know I have to get into this. I WANT one of those banners (except with an M1  O:-))

You guys are all in the UK? When do you usually get online?

I believe Asid and JD are the only Brits in this group although Asid is the one who is most often available for a game.  I try to aim for around 2PM EST if I'm gonna be on.  Before it gets to late for them.  Although we started one at 5PM the other day.


The Challengers are great, if a bit slower.  My only issue with them is that the optics get screwed up if I let the AI gunner take over while I'm doing other stuff.  The Lase/Aim point marker just goes completely missing off the scope and resetting doesn't get it back for long periods of time unless I fire numerous rounds into the ground in front of me and keep trying to reset after each.  Never had it disappear so irreparably in other tanks.  Not sure if it's a bug with the Challie or there's an extra-special command for that one in particular.

I'm in the US and we are all a mix of countries.  We now have a standing time on Sundays of 20:00 GMT+1 GMT and I am CST in the US so it is 1400 for me.  I have been on in the afternoons and have never had a problem with playing with the guys each afternoon or night.  Asid is a madman because he is in the UK and we have played past 2300 CST.

I am working on more sigs with the M1, Leo, even Bradleys.... and if for some strange reason someone wants one, a T-72.

Updated reply 3: Tips/Tactcics etc..

Screen Shots
We all like screen shots. The below options can be used to tailor the shot. If you are running with low shadows etc due to your pc then you can temporarily increase the settings to take the shot. When done reduce the settings.

Alt+H = removes GUI
Alt+G = Graphics settings
Alt+D = Terrain detail distance

You can also take shots from the AAR after the battle is over. This will let you create a visual representation of the battle. In this situation you can use the "zoom" function. You can take your time and find a great angle and zoom level.

Wouldn't that be kind of like loving a Stormtrooper on the Death Star about 80 minutes into the original Star Wars?  You know what's going to happen to it/him...

PE - if you would like, send me the original art when you get a sec, and I'll add it to the GH CafePress store, and y'all and sport your own T-Shirts with it :)
