History

[Sputty]

If you want to talk about history do it here.

[Myhouse43]

Seriously though, if you want people to talk about history don't just say "Here's a spot to talk about history! Go!" like its official or something. I hat these kind of stupid-ass threads!!!!

[Doobz]

hey, no need to call people's threads stupid-ass.

so, ill just toss a history topic out there for everybody to begin on. The fall of the Roman Empire

History dicussions usually just sort of happen spontaneously in a separate thread. Might not have a lot of luck with this thread, unless someone does this:

The Italians in WW2 were the most horrible fighting force on the planet, save the few African countries they liked to bully to boost their ego. In fact, they were so horrendous, that I'd argue they were really more of a burden on the Germans than they were any help.


Damn, posted your Roman thing a second before I posted a WW2 one. Bloody hell, Romans suck, WW2 is far more interesting.

[Sputty]

I just don't want every thread to be moved or whatever. Too many game discussions lead to history and a fwe comparisons are ok but most of the time it's just saying historic things that are very lossely, if at all, related to the thread.

What kind of history

[Sputty]

Any kind. I was guessing if someone brought something up they could be told to go to this thread or wanted to talk about something specific. As I typed earlier I just want some of the history things out of the game discussions.

Speaking of the Roman Empire, I'm reading a book called Gods and Legions...it's not that good

Maybe the topic "History" is a little to broad, I dunno.

Armenius was a pimp. Simple as that. I'm going to name my dog after him.

[Doobz]

pimpin' roman dogs!

excellent!

[Navaron]

I know, how cool is that. That'll be cool to yell across the neighborhood. Army, thats a good nickname for a dog.

I so agree.... hahaha That was so funny. Italy... lol

[Doobz]

they had a pretty ok airforce though

[Navaron]

So whose worse- as a culture and fighting force - the french or the italians?

I think that if we took all the gang-bangers in the Souther California area and made them into an army they could beat both the French and Itailans(Assuming we could transport them back into time)
