    Silenced pistols?

    Is that a Stechkin? Were they ever fitted with silencers? A bit long in the tooth, too. Not a bad option for the Resistance though.

  4. 1. The finance committee refuses to provide funds for the purchase of a chandelier because none of the members knows how to play one. 2. People ask, when they learn that Jesus fed the 5000, whether the two fish were bass or catfish, and what bait was used to catch'em. 3. The pastor says, "I'd like to ask Bubba to help take up the offering." Then five guys and two women stand up. 4. Opening day of deer season is recognized as an official church holiday. 5. A member of the church requests to be buried in his 4-wheel-drive truck because "It ain't never been in a hole it couldn't get out of." 6. The choir is known as the "OK Chorale". 7. In a congregation of 500 members, there are only seven last names in the church directory. 8. Baptism is referred to as "branding." 9. There is a special fundraiser for a new church septic tank. 10. Finding and returning lost sheep isn't just a parable. 11. High notes on the organ set the dogs on the floor to howling. 12. People think "rapture" is what you get when you lift something too heavy. 13. The baptismal font is a #2 galvanized washtub. 14. The choir robes were donated by (and embroidered with the logo from)Billy Bob's Barbecue.

    Trabant golf sim

    Try this for size; Polo with a Jeep. Required: Bunkers to mark two sets of goals, unmanned jeep starts in the centre of the field, two opposing sides made up of single player manned MBTs. Object: to get the jeep through your opponent's goalposts, either by pushing with the tank, or "Kicking" by using the main gun. using the gun on opposing tanks is illegal. One point scored per goal, to a max of five. It was found to be difficult to get what was left of the jeep back to the centre, so it kind of fell out of favour. But with the new vehicle respawn script... EDIT: Shouldn't this be in Multiplayer?

    New addons

    It wasn't so long ago that people were whining at modders for not releasing addons until they were perfect. "Release the Beta's," they said, "We'll offer constructive criticism," they said. Now that's done, they're whining 'cos they're not finished. Some people are never satisfied! Â

    You mean a crash landing, rather than failing to miss the ground? Why bother, if you can eject?

It's not actually a tank, either, it's a mobile artillery piece. The armour is just about enough to protect the vehicle from counter-battery fire short of a direct hit. Normally these things would be nowhere near the front. Quakergamer is, or was building one, but it still needs some work.

Ofcourse you can overload them and things will ofcourse change but I assume we are talking factory ammo here <span id='postcolor'> Unless the .50 cal round weighs exactly the same as the .44, that cannot possibly be true (Newton's Second Law). you could reduce the charge by a corresponding amount, but that kind of kind of defeats the whole object in the first place. You may as well use a .44 round. it would have higher velocity, better ballistics, and be cheaper too.

    Genesis is right, I checked when it first appeared. The maximum armour of the M109 chassis is 32mm. I'm not totally sure there's a pair of .50s onboard, either.

    "Band of Brothers," when they went into the concentration camp did it for me. Another that had the same effect was "Warriors."

It is so frusterating for long range shots because your shots will land in different places even when you have the gun straight and elevation correct.<span id='postcolor'> Dunno what you played with, but they can be very consistant. First gun I owned was a Sheridan PR3, Then for tournament used a Budd-Orr Ranger. I could pretty much do whatever damage I wanted, if I wasn't shot first. But true, at long range, you saturate the area.

Make sure your gun isn't firing hot. If the site has a chronograph, make damned sure your gun is shooting right 2. Act like a target, and you will be one. use cover. 3. Think like a target, and the same thing applies. Sombody shoots at you, you bloody well shoot back. Looking for your next piece of cover is important; Looking for your next target is the game! 4. If you and your friends are all newbies, you will lose. Accept it, and go for personal victories, EG, take three of the bastards with you. 5. Stay away from people who say: "I'm only her for a bit of fun," Because one thing you can guarantee is that fun is one thing these jokers won't have! If you went into a football game spouting those immortal words, nobody would blame your team-mates for planting two pairs of size ten studded soles in your head. 6. If there are vets on your own team, talk to them in between games, watch what they do during games. Getting the two mixed up can be painful. 7. If the Vets are all on the other team, ignore the wanker strutting around between games packing the latest kit. watch for the quiet sod sat in the corner with his gun stripped; chances are he's the twat that just shot you in the back. Good hunting, dude.
