Like it says on the tin. Is Team Yankee an evil plan of Battlefront. I think it is. They are trying to get our money by offering a service, and they are supporting their evil plan with websites and advertising. Thoughts?

It's despicable – they're treating us like consumers….

Someone should write them a nasty letter.

Dark Knights And Bloody Dawns11 Nov 2015 7:37 a.m. PST

Erm…

Q that's a nasty letter, almost useless in scrabble!

Clearly an evil plot. Toy soldiers are an inalienable and fundamental requirement of a civil society and anyone seeking to make a profit off such a basic human right is a capitalistic tool of the oppressor class.

Cunning thieves I say

No, no not at all.

Here, take a look at these new Soviet ZSU's. That's right, just look into the light, you'll see them….

Feel better now?

Zargon11 Nov 2015 8:22 a.m. PST

Heh! Them southen boys thunk so.
Jus give them yer money, ye"ll feel better fer it.

You know, they sucker you in with their reasonable WW2 game and then POW! They've got you hooked.

It's moments like this when I'm glad I'm immune to Modern gaming! Now WWII, that is another story…. wink

I didn't know this was an Apple products forum.

backstab11 Nov 2015 1:26 p.m. PST

Bastards!

Never thought I'd live to see the day…….

You are aware, MT, that a lot of WWII armor, weapons, uniforms, and tactics, were used during the Cold War, right?

Why limit yourself to ending in 1945, when you can extend into the 1960s in many cases, with just a few tweaks, and the addition of a more modern tank, or two, in some cases?

Quit quibbling quixotically and quietly quote queried quantities for quanta of dice to qualify for quelling the quarrelsome Quislings quickly into quiescence! Q is not so useless if your wargaming in Norway.

^^ que?


(j/k! ;-)

The sods have made me go and buy 20mm figures and tanks. Oh the shame.

cosmicbank11 Nov 2015 5:02 p.m. PST

Well they are based on an island… And they do have a world wide web of minions… If they only had hard hats and yellow jumpsuits…

i can't wait to see a company of t72's packed side by side. because, you know, game scale…

oh, and then the defense of "side by side" tanks with, "if we were using arty and air craft", that would stop it.

The Dark Side beckons, our wallets can't repel announcements of that magnitude……..que The Imperial March (Darth Vader's Theme) in the background

Mako1112 Nov 2015 2:34 p.m. PST

I suspect a ten, or thirteen vehicle Soviet tank company, spread out, and attacking across a 72" table frontage will look just fine, and rather impressive on the tabletop, too.

The T-72's width in 1/100th scale is only about 1.5", so will fit okay, in the above spacing, even in a line-abreast formation.

If that bugs you, attack with a two up, and one back, platoon formation.

Damnit! I'm in.
Here is my wallet, be gentle.
