Rule Hypocrisy
the people that made a rule against "Sexism, racism, homophobia, and other forms of bigotry" but allow cussing i think is quite hypocritical. if you allow people to cuss on this site then why is it wrong for someone to politely state their belief that homosexuality is a sin? if this forum was made for people to voice their opinions and opinions are allowed on other matters then why is it wrong to voice your opinions on sticky subjects?

Why did we invade Klendathu?
What value was there to the planets owned by the bugs? Why not just nuke them?

They say roaches will rule the world after the bombs drop. Nuking the bugs would just have made them more powerful.

I sure hope somebody builds a big wall to protect us from Klendothu.

But be careful of your spelling, brainbomb. "Klendathu" is the feminine form of "Klendothu", and you can get banned and/or have your posts locked if you use an unapproved form of the name. Enforecement is arbitrary based on mod's baises. Please remember to keep your posts acceptably friendly.

This thread is intended to spread intolerance for the aliens of klendathu. They must pay for the loss of life in Beunos Aires. #onlygoodbugisadeadbug

Full disclosure I was talking out of my ass. I was pretty sure this was about Starship Troopers since the aliens from that are called "bugs".

I'm pretty sure starship troopers is the greatest movie ever made. After I have another drink I'm positive starship troopers is, in fact, the greatest movie ever made.

@brainbomb - we invaded Klendathus because we wanted to capture a brainbombBug of course, at least that's how I remember it.

I have read the book many times. There is too much Beverly Hills 90210 in that movie. Not enough bug killing in heavily armored, flight capable suits. ON THE BOUNCE! BY THE NUMBERS! Make your names shine, boys.

I'm reminded when I read this of my dissatisfaction with the "Expendables" movies with Sylvester Stallone.. Not enough of the "Expendables" get "expended" during the movie..they all survive, including the bad guy.
Should be called "We all come back" not the "Expendables"

Should be the "Expanables" to explain the expanding waistlines of the aging cast.

Why did they invade Klendathu? Because the movie had to happen.

That's really the only reason.

You could literally just nuke the planets from orbit, continuously, for YEARS. Nothing would survive.

Sexist? Robert Heinlein was a full-on fascist. That's actually a theme in the movie...the heroes are fascists but we end up rooting for them anyway, which makes us feel really uncomfortable.

One woman suggested: "we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure." But then 20th Century Fox and Ridley Scott obtained an injunction based on copyright, and the Starship Troopers were forced to take the battle to the ground.

Switzerland: No Man's Land.
Let's assume that Switzerland is no longer impassable. What effects would that have on the game, the strategy, and the tactics? Should Switzerland stay a no man's land, or might it be more interesting to make it a playable space? Perhaps it could be a neutral supply center, or just a neutral territory. What do you guys think?

Turkey Opening Strategies: Moving to Syria?
Turkey opens normally, except the fleet in Ankara moves to Constantinople, and the army in Smyrna holds. The army in Smyrna then moves to Syria. Turkey can build a fleet in Ankara or Smyrna, depending on whether he is going after Russia or Italy. This is not my idea. I was just curious to know what you guys think about it. Is a Turkish move to Syria just plain silly, or might it have some serious strategic effects?

French - Italian alliance
How would this work? Usually there's a non-aggression pact, but if France were willing to sacrifice Marseilles in return for support in Tyrolia, is this a workable relationship? Stabs are VERY difficult as they cross the stalemate line, but has this been effectively done before?

I hate people from Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe-ans suck big time.

I was actually going to use this new thread to maybe comment about what I think about women, or maybe what I think about Republicans, or maybe something else like that. But then I thought those things might get me in trouble. So I decided to express my opinion about Zimbabwe-ans instead.

Strategy differences between the maps
What would you say the biggest overall strategy differences are between playing the small map (Ancient Med) vs Classic vs the larger maps (Fall of American Empire, Mod Dip, World Dip, and soon to be extinct Known World)?
