I Promised.....


PapaVictorLima left me a comment that struck a chord with me. See below. I have never served, to my disgust, but turning the age of 30 I realise that at this age its too late to do anything about it. However, I love the military business generally, and have utmost respect for those who do violence on the part of the ordinary folk so that they can sleep easy in their beds. Following that logic, every weapon and vehicle that I build MUST be as close to reality as possible. I do not want the likes of ATnT getting excited because I made a sniper rilfe that looks like a stick with a toffee apple atop it. But - and there is a but - it is a game, loosely based on reality.

Having played S.T.AL.K.E.R. recently, I appreciate the quality they got with their weapons and so I'm tryin to replicate something similar.Spend, SPEND, spend.....polygon spend.....thats my ethos lately. So heres the skinny - handheld weapons 15 new. - armoured vehicles - 6 new - air assets - 5 new - stationary weapons 8 new. I will send you some links over the weekend showing the weapons. Ballpeen hammers etc.!

I need to go to bed. Plus - My county - Limerick - are in the all ireland final on sunday. if we win.....if we win.....i will be pissed DRUNK for a few months, and very lttle will be done. Have you folk ever heard of "hurling"....? the meanest sport on this planet? Fastest land sport in the world, and probably the dirtiest. Hooraaa! Sean South would be proud.
