iloveyanks 1 Posted December 4, 2001 Why doesn't someone replace the s**** abrams with the Challenger 1 or 2, the yanks copied it-the turret and locking traverse and the choblam armour. Then get rid of the overated bradley with the Warrior IFV which is far better. Then get rid of the humvee's and stick in some stripped down 110 landies for a laugh ( the rangers are now using these instead of hummers) and some well trained british soldiers who think for themselves unlike to gun-ho jackasses that are the US army. And while i'm on the subject the british soldiers would be able to go for 20 metres without lung failure unlike to yanks in the game. Oh and to remind ourselves of the old days put the battle field taxi in (the FV432) for a laugh and watch the REME blokes huddle round them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

madmike 0 Posted December 4, 2001 I agree. Why do us Brits have to play yanks in all the games. someone should at leased make a Brithish MOD for us. i would prefer to see qaulity British forces in opf. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kegstand 0 Posted December 4, 2001 You said: i would prefer to see qaulity British forces in opf. The reason this does not exist is simple. BIS has stated that they wanted to make this game as realistic as possible. Introducing a thing called Quality British Forces is ficticious. Maybe they could come up with some British Soldiers who could cater to the far superior American Force i.e. Serve us up some fish and chips with a pint of ale to wash it down.

Stinger 0 Posted December 4, 2001 The one thing you Brits can be counted on, its to remind me why we kicked you out in the first place... you talk a lot of s**t Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iloveyanks 1 Posted December 4, 2001 ah your all euro wannabies anyway-hence italian american, french american and black american. Your all just looking for some culture, and as far as it goes ladies i've trained with your lads a couple of times AND it has to be said there is an air of mutual respect. The yanks say "jesus you boys are good, you'll come back soon right" and we say "yeah sure, i need to nick more doss bags etc". That is true, otherwise why would the US marines regulary ask for a small force of British Royal marine commandos to play enemy against a huge force of US marines (i do take the critism that the marine like to shoot thier own blokes so making the RMC's task easier).

madmike 0 Posted December 4, 2001 You dont make sense kegstand, how can BIS make a ficticious game as realistic as possible? I think you need to get out more as operation flashpoint is not based on a real war. The reason why you think your forces are 'great' is because they wont admit defeat. Places like Veitnam and Somalia come to mind and isnt it amazing how your "exelent" forces killed 35 of there own troops in the gulf out of the 150 killed. Now somehow I dont think that sounds too good to me. Have you ever won a war on your own? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Â Anyone else confused here? I think you need to get out more as operation flashpoint is not based on a real war. Â No, not based on a real war but during a very real period. Â As far as getting out more, in what way does that support your argument? The reason why you think your forces are 'great' is because they wont admit defeat. Â Places like Veitnam and Somalia come to mind Defeat? Â Before you start to comment on the our involvement in Vietnam and Somalia you might want to do a little research on the subjects. and isnt it amazing how your "exelent" Â forces killed 35 of there own troops in the gulf out of the 150 killed. Oh great american history buff, would you be so kind as to post your source(s) for this satistic? Now somehow I dont think that sounds too good to me. Have you ever won a war on your own? Â No. Â How many wars have you won by yourself in the past 300 years? Â We are normally too busy helping others fight there wars.

Seems The Brits had a history of doing that as well. Which would explain where we had gotten the ideals. It took the U.S. many years to rid itself of those bad genes and start to make right the wronging that was placed on the American Indian. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supah 0 Posted December 4, 2001 How hard is it for a province of another country to achieve state hood in the US? we, in friesland, got all the things americans like in the netherlands. Pretty old churches, windmills, quirky little towns with canals and eath defense works around it. I wouldnt mind being a US citizen.

madmike 0 Posted December 4, 2001 im not saying that other european armies arnt good its just all the military games always have US forces and weapons on them. I want something different. Some european countries have exelent armies such as Germany, Denmark and Sweden. The problem is that people with no military experience seem to think the US forces are the best which is far from the case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
