Well, one way he "tricked" them into following him was putting on massive fairs and parades. He seemed like a king when knights walked beside floats. Also, a nice game for all you WWII gamers is Brothers In Arms, probably the all time best game. Ever. Also, it is based on real people and real events. I remember finding two guys blowing up some german buildings with a Bazooka, and then reading the unlockables and finding out from an actual after action report that those two troops had stormed Nazi filled buildings using a rifle and machine gun and then after coming out the cafeteria door (Filled with 15 Nazi's) and shot bazooka shots at buildings. 100% realistic.

I have that game, it was fun but you couldn't shoot anything.. And I've shot a Enfeild (SP) its much more accurate then that garand.. they should be fairly close

[quote=Channler]I love MOHAA.. that was prob the best in my opinion.. Storming the Beaches of Normandy.. That sent me into a WW2 craze gathering and compiliing as much information as possible.. In fact right now I'm studying how the hell Hitler captivated the german people[/quote]
I've seen a movie about that... On a school in America, a teacher had read many books and studied Hitler, and made a experiment on the students that they didn't know...

Through disiplin and much more he made them act different and trusted each other and of course the teacher. They found a logo to their 'croup' thingy and started taking it all seriously and bla bla... In the end they were totally under his control.. Little hard to explain, but the movie is very good...

Think its called 'The Wave' or something

Since it´s a warm and sunny day( at least in Sweden).......have some icecream!

Yaaay... its hot here and the sun is breaking up the clouds right now... Mhmm.. :lickinglips:

*Fuzzy dives into the mountains of icecream and waffles*

Hmm, I think we have some Snickers Ice in the fridge or something, I'll see... If I can get one :lickinglips:

Ahh yummy! I have a large cone with vanilla icecream and chocolate in the freezer here at work, gonna get it in about 10 minutes! woot

D'oh... didn't have any ice cream, but tomorrow is the last school day! Then we will have lots of chocolate and candy! :lickinglips:

ohh sounds really good, here the kids have had summer-vacation for over a week by now! You are late in Norway!!

Gonna Work this summer Fuzz??

Hmm, well depends if I find any good places to work... Gonna send some mails around at the end of this week I think..

Thought about if there was any jobs I could do in one of the "Fantasy" stores in Oslo, have much cool stuff there, Manga, Warhammer, D&D, Swords, Knives, Magazines and much more... Tons of books, gonna see if there anything that I could do there... Carry stuff... :rofl:

I'll finish school on friday, but I only have to actually do anything on wednesday morning and friday morning since those are my last 2 exams. Ater that I've got 9 weeks of holiday. Yeeeeeeeeeeee! Heh, and my brother still has 3 more weeks of school after I finish, so I get to hog the computer

Achh you lucky minxes......I have to work almost 4 more weeks until I´ll get holiday......

[quote=minque]Achh you lucky minxes......I have to work almost 4 more weeks until I´ll get holiday...... [/quote]
At least u have the forum, and if u work with a computer that haves internet then its fun :rofl:

yeah....so far but one day my company will forbid us to visit such sites..I´m sure, but so far I do have it yes!

I'm blocked from all the official sites at work, but can still hit Portal, Source and this site. Oh that the world would embrace the TES world and raise it to its rightful place in society!

Uh . . okay.

Anyway, just a question.

Who's waiting for War of The Worlds.

ME! *raises hand*

I think anything that once made the world go into mass panic is awesome.

(Some people thought the radio show of it was real...lol)

I'm gonna go see it, but i'm undecided as to whether it's a good thing or not that it's set in modern times. The book was set in the 1800's, and all they had to fight the aliens was cannon and muskets and junk

Me either, but I'll go see it and give it a chance before I say too much...

W00t!

My school finally let out today, and my Summer vacation has now started.

ah...

Me! o/

Great Aki! w00t...

*gives Aki a :cake:

[gloat] I was out may 24th....[/gloat]



glad you're finally out though...

I have a new found respect for Tom Cruise now that hes in WotW.

I'm out of school (for good) in two days. A day of lazing around tomorrow, then my last exam - which is also the longest - on friday. After the exam, though, I'm going for an all-you-can-eat at Pizza Hut, and I fully intend to eat until food is coming out of my ears

Wow, we break up at the end of july. Though we are going to Noramandy for a week on a school trip in a week!

[quote=minque]Great Aki! w00t...

NormandY? :shocked:

My school never even leaves the state, and you're leaving the freaking country? :eek:

Wowzers.

It's only across the channel.

Hmm, my vecation started today too... no school in 2 months.. :lickinglips:

Can someone tell me what England/GreatBritian/Britian is called?

Is it all of thoes things? Or is it just one of them?

England is England.

England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland all constitute the United Kingdom. Great Britain is practically the same thing - the words UK and GB are often used synonymously; in actual fact, I think they differ by a few islands between them... not sure.

[img]http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/images/europe/united-kingdom.jpg[/img]

Never ever confuse 'England' with 'Britain' - the Scots and the Welsh tend to get a bit upset about these things.

Hope this answers the question somewhat

[quote=Konradude]It's only across the channel.[/quote]

Oh, well I think he was talking about the USA.

Yeah, I've never gone out of state either.

And defnintely never refer to Ireland as part of the UK. I get very annoyed when people do that, as do most Irish people who live in the Republic

[quote=LoneWolf]And defnintely never refer to Ireland as part of the UK. I get very annoyed when people do that, as do most Irish people who live in the Republic[/quote]

why of course! Ireland is Ireland, no question about that, it´s like when people think Copenhagen is the capital of Sweden!!!.. :eek:

Naah, everyone knows that Oslo is the capital of Sweden.

Soo? You don´t learn geography in Finland anymore???

[quote=minque]Soo? You don´t learn geography in Finland anymore??? [/quote]
What? Thought Oslo was the capital of Sweden! :ashamed:

Ok..so no geography knowledge in Norway either...hmm just what I expected

I have no geography knowledge at all

The capital of Sweden is Stockholm.

Am I right?

No...

Stockholm is the capital of Holland.. :goodjob:

Ah! I think that must be it. I was trying to make sure I knew all the capitals of the scandinavian countries after those posts earlier. Am I right with this?

Denmark -> Copenhagen
Norway -> Oslo
Finland -> Helsinki
Sweden -> Stockholm

Correct now what's the capital of Macedonia?

Haha... Helsinki is one of the bases near Area 51.. :goodjob:

I have no idea, so I'll guess Macedon. If in doubt, give the country's name, or a name similar to the country's name I'm trying to think of countries that works for, and the only one I can remember is Brazil (and possibly Luxembourg)

[quote=gamer10]Correct now what's the capital of Macedonia?[/quote]

Skopje

[quote=Fuzzy Knight]Haha... Helsinki is one of the bases near Area 51.. [/quote]

The media has done it again.

Where is Macedonia anyway? For some reason the name makes me think of Alexander the Great, was he from Macedonia?

[quote=Chumbaniya]Where is Macedonia anyway? For some reason the name makes me think of Alexander the Great, was he from Macedonia?[/quote]

No he was from Brazil. He conquered all the other South American countries as well.

:lmao:

I believe Macedonia is a country near Crete. My great grandfather had four sons that were all from Crete but had different passports to fish in different countries. It took us decades to figure out where they were all from. First we thought Venice, then Greece, then Macedonia and then we figured out he was from Crete.

I think Macedonia was somewhere around Greece or Yugoslavia...

Yey! I was betting with myself Stockholm was the capital of Sweden

(ThankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouAstridLindgren)

You people have no idea were macedonia is?!

Try directly north of greece.. Though I don't think its called that anymore..

And yes alexander the great was a macedonian

Nope, don't really care for "Alexander the Great" .

Didn't bother to see the movie.
