Re:I need an Intervention.
LOL! I can empathize.
The other day I was making some enchiladas. It's a common saying in New Mexico, in fact our state motto, "Red or Green" referring to the type of chile for those not familiar with it.
What came out of my mouth? "Blue or Grey?". She just looked at me and shook her head.
That's what 20+ tries of GB-11 on normal will do to a man.

These are all signs of a sickness. However, it's a sick world, so just accept it for what it is.
The way I see it, I'd rather be playing this than mindlessly watching TV. I could be out at the bar, but I'm home with the family (even if I'm glued to the computer). I'm sure that you are a bad person, but it has nothing to do with Gettysburg. Keep up the good work and, for Christ's Sake, convince the wife that high-speed is good for HER
Ha! I've run the whole gamut Mikesla....Mikesla:
The phase of replaying games in your head will pass - although not entirely.
Ps. I know for a fact that RichMac can relate, lol

I will, I have no choice anymore, the game has me by the kahoonies, withdrawl is not a nice thing.These are all signs of a sickness. However, it's a sick world, so just accept it for what it is.
That is so true. There's nothing worth watching anymore. The only thing I watch are documentaries. Never wish to say in public that I would watch PBS, but now it's about one of the better channels out there.The way I see it, I'd rather be playing this than mindlessly watching TV.
That is what I tell her, I don't go to the bars, hang out with the guys, but nope, not yet anyway.I could be out at the bar, but I'm home with the family (even if I'm glued to the computer). Keep up the good work and, for Christ's Sake, convince the wife that high-speed is good for HER
I'm bad too the bone.... :laugh:I'm sure that you are a bad person, but it has nothing to do with Gettysburg.

Re:I need an Intervention.
Mikesla,
Good to know I'm not alone in my love of this game. My first MP I was almost strung up trying to get rid of the Yankee's while my daughter is standing over me with money in her hand from my wife . I was commissioned to go to Albertaco's and get dinner and I kept holding them off while trying to win the game. In the back ground of the Infantry rifle noise was this constant rumbling of " Come on Dad , Food, we are hungery, "Mom Dad's not moving" So It is a miracle that I survived at all. Got to go now and get the little girls to bed. I'll be back!
