Soccorro: yeah just thought of that after having posted my last answer... But i'm a bit of an perfectionist and there is that feeling of something being incomplete...
I can understand that, I am not the same, but I know many are. I just install what I am playing, then uninstall them when I am finished.
ElTerprise: I also like playing as a sniper and that's really the problem....and Sniper Elite V2 is only decent imho...
I have not played Sniper Elite. But let me guess, you are playing some American agent saving the world, or doing something single handed that has a big outcome on the war? :-)
GhostwriterDoF: It's interesting what a well trained army could accomplish against an overwhelming force, but I think the biggest influence in combat was the officers and their tactical choices that made the difference when it came to the battles being wages at the time (and even before WW1). I do enjoy the all the little details of history. :)
Glad you are taking care to take good care of yourself, and your partner too, whilst working as hard as you do.
My day is just beginning with only a couple ours passed, but it is a good morning. It's drizzling a bit outside, overcast and cool, so I'll take a little walk in the rain later, and spaghetti and meat sauce is on the menu for dinner tonight (which I'll start cooking early so I can work on my writing this evening).
I am not quite sure the officers were always that useful during the war. Many officers on all sides seemed unable to adjust to the new style of fighting. For example, one of the first encounters between the British and the Germans ended in a German massacre, as the Germans just charged the line of British, and it was said by the German survivors that it sounded like the British had machine guns, yet it was just the British firing rifles in a disciplined fashion. The Germans were not alone in this, the war was the start of a new era of warfare, and every nation was adjusting to the new fighting styles. Even the Americans, who joined the war many years later, suffered from the adjustment to the fighting style of the First World War. They had a slight advantage, of course, as they had sat and watched as the Allied forces were fighting during the earlier years, so with that, and advice from the Allied nations, this helped the Americans to adjust to the war a little quicker.
I hope you have a nice day, and that the weather will be nice so that you can enjoy your walk.
CarrionCrow: What the hell...I can't cast spells to raise the dead in Icewind EE because my party's evil.
What a load of bullshit.
So only the good guys can raise the dead? That seems quite strange.
