Ninja Scroll was GOOD! First animes i watched were: Ghost in The Shell, Akira and Ninja Scroll. They are my favourites still. OK, Wicked City an Macross series was good, but most of mainstream anime is quite same. Detonator Orgun was funny though... BTW: How well can you get anime in US?

Wow, i checked this forum yesterday. Quite a fast flamewar, though. I just hope we can get back to orginal topic someday. Ok,dont start flaming beacuse this: I think most US citizens who write here don´t realize that some topics are sore to Europeans. For example many German people...

Raptor, there was a mention of "Great hunt" in HTL meaning that after WC4 BL was destroyed by Confed and BW. Is there any offical refereces to this or is all of this just a fanfiction?

"What is he, a thousand years old or something?" -Casey in WCP Or something like that. Problem is that when you are hero, everyone exepts that you solve the situation. I liked WC 4.123... fanfic beacuse it showed diffrent Blairs sides and made it...

But wasnt kilrathi main fleet blown to piecies in WCP??? What kind of resistance can they put aganst bugs? Secret Hakaga class dreadnoughts, which they have secretly spared for bad times???

I loved WC2 too. WC4 was great, but i hated some of those missions. The game was also too buggy. I think problem with WCP was that those bugs were ripped from B5. And what kind of horror movie allows you to shoot back to enemy? Few cutscenes were you could decide what to say would been...

I think that was Battle of Terra which changed the man. In Fleet Action he goes save Tarawa without premission "beacuse they are my men." Then he sees how politicans mess things up and almoust looses Kevin beacuse of that. No wonder that he didn´t trust democracy any more and sided with nazis.

Off topic, but i had to ask, what is Dungeons and Dragons? A movie based same named rpg? (Yes, i know what rpg:s are)

Note that most countries in Europe put 1-3% of their GDP to army funding. That´s the similar precentace that in US, but beacuse of huge diffrences between GDP, amount of money is smaller. Still you are partially right, during cold war NATO was good ally to many European countries, but it...

In SAAB they used LIDAR, radar which scanned space with laser beam. That would work in normal life, though Chigs had stealth fighters in that serie too...

Are stupid fanfics so common then? Ok, when i first read WCAces thathre 3000 i laughed so loud that my roommate i was going mad!

So in this discussion we should add the following question : if we can theoriticaly extends the human life expectancy, is it praticaly possible ? If lifespan can be raised to 100 years it means more old people around. They retried in 70 years old and then live 30 years doing nothing...

Just think about amount of social services such as free health care and pension, which could be arraged if that amount of money would placed elsewhere! No wonder that politicans wan´t always cut military funding. CIA Factbook states that US spends 3.2 % (276 billion $) of GDP in military...

I read once science magazine about US Air force researching to bring sounds back to fighter pilot. I nowadays pilot can´t hear anything execpt warning beeps, so scientics are trying to add some kind off sound warning system that pilot could hear planes turning, firing and so on...

Here in Finland our geological stations picked up signals when Kursk went down. There were exposion and after that 2 minutes delay before bigger explosion. The question is why subs capitan didn´t launch emergency buoy or send signal in two minutes?? He should have enough time...

Back to orginal subject, the marines. Human without powered heavy combat armour wouldn´t have a change when fighting aganst kilrathi. Wasn´t it that normal kilrathi weight was 120kg and was 2.2m tall?? Such monster could take quite a many hits from assault rifle before going down. Also...

Care to explain?

I can find many intresting names from Propechy map, (Za´Ha Duhmn is probably debaded to death), but then there is this system named "Vainio", and in Finland we have couple famous Vainios, first one was a runner Martti Vainio who was caught using doping in 80´s and the other Vainio is a faumous...

But quatity isn´t better than quality. Shure if we had more ships we could defend vast space and make surgigcal strikes to enemy supply lines, but i think the problem with CVE was that it still required trained personell and if here in I don´t know what it costs in US, but here in Finland one...
