Germany has instigated territorial claims on the Czech Republic and Poland. Unless someone currently holds those lands, I'm going to assume that the two countries named cede the land that Germany demands.

Black hair on white girls drives me nuts. Personality is nice as well, someone who can hold their own in an argument and isn't embarrassingly stupid.

Just wait a couple months for Modern Warfare 2 to come out.

I'll buy the prints, but after that they're mine and I can build as many tanks as I'd like. What's the map look like atm?

Yea he was resigning anyways, so I figured I'd spice it up a bit. :P Lahtor Field initiates conscription to bolter the German Army, and production has begun on new fighter-interceptor designs that allow for higher top speeds at the sacrifice of armour; making them the fastest land-based plane in the world atm. Siezing of property held by citizens loyal to the desposed leader has also begun, with the assests being sold and the money added to the country's money supply - estimated value $56million.

I found one here http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138079 but it runs with DDR2. So yea, it's looking like I'm going to have to do a bunch of upgrades to get my PC where I want it. Is it actually even feasible to just upgrade the motherboard, RAM, and video card? Or should I be looking at other things as well; keep in mind though I don't have the sort of money to either do a full upgrade of all my components or buy a new PC. Bare bones. Sorry for annoying you Nadril :P

Oh damn it all to hell. See? This is why old people hate computers. :( Wait. Why would a new motherboard not be compatible with a P4? I'd be fine with getting a new motherboard, video card and some more RAM, though.

Do you want Germany? I'm already getting a bit bored of this game. Germany will have 5 Geo-thermal power stations built tomorrow that should produce about 150% of the power needed by the country, so you have some spare. Also theres some researchers in Frankfurt researching weapons of your choice. This just in, Easter Island has caputred Germany with its 200 man military force. Who said it has no military. My 'basic military' (which i said a few days ago that i set up) stops those 200 men in their tracks : Ok. My character, Lahtor Field, stages a coup in Germany and deposes the rightful democratic leader Danqazmlp, who was executed shortly after the parliament building fell to the troops of the 33rd armoured battalion and the 212 Mechanized Infantry. Riots broke out upon hearing the news, but several of the other army and air force commanders had been involved with the plot from the beginning, so the outbreaks were quickly suppressed with brutal force. Harlot Field names himself the High King of Germany. And you thought you were going to be able to hand authority away peacefully, muwahahaha! In response to your colonization of the California wasteland, I am sending 2000 troops to the Capital Wasteland, and I will start investing into a secret technology, and it's construction won't begin for several days. Also, on an unrelated note, I'll be in need of several hundred tons of steel. i believe i stated that the entire united states blew up killing everyone and leaving nothing. there is nothing to take. NOTHING. consider it worse than nuclear winter, because at least in nuclear winter there would be cockroaches and stuff. Why'd you blow up your own country, crazy man?

bugger more money

Yeah I figured they were about the same, but some of the radeon's more budget card line up confuses me. :oops: I only really know the main lineups (like 3850/70, 4850/70) Pff the whole damn thing confuses the hell out of me. And I've an ASUS P4B533 motherboard specs here: http://computingondemand.com/?p=918

I have no idea what my power supply is like, how exactly do I check that? And as for the motherboard I thought I knew what it was but the box I have here is for my old PC, so I'm going to have to go into the BIOS and take a look. And it's great to know that the 4670 can run those types of games, that is actually a step up from what I was expecting from a graphics card with such a low price tag.

What countries are still open to take?

Alright I'm trying to decide on a video card to replace the old one (radeon 9600) that I have tucked in this clunker. So far I've found 5 that are within my price range, but I'm a newb with hardware so I'd like to hear someone else's opinion before I buy one. Here are the five: GeForce 9400 GT - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130389 GeForce 9500 GT - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130395 GeForce 9600 GSO - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150340 Radeon HD 4650 PCI - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102829 Radeon HD 4670 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127415 Not looking to spend over $80, as I'm not planning on turning this computer into a hardcore gaming machine, I just want something that can run older games at high settings (Medieval:TW2, GTA:SA, Prince of Persia, etc), and maybe newer games on low settings. Besides, if in the future I do decide to turn this pc into a beast, then I want a card that is relatively cheap so that I can just throw it in another machine without a second thought. Cheers.

I never understood why people want to be pmods, don't people play this game for fun? I don't find enforcing rules to be all that fun :P

"Please" and "Thank you" don't take that long to type out.

Because compared to automatics its a lot harder. I hear it's really easy and natural once you get used to it though, it's just the learning period that's frustrating (my sister stalled 5 times in a row a while ago and got really pissed off, it was pretty funny). Hey, stalling is not fun. I can understand why your sister would get pissed off, you'll understand too when you learn on a stick. My parents did the same as your parents are going to do, they bought a stick for me to learn on. Once you get the hang of starting, it's almost as easy as an automatic. In fact, when you drive an automatic, your left foot will feel so useless that you will want your manual back. Thanks for the encouragement. My parents say it will help me not get in accidents because I have to pay attention more. Unless you have 3 hands, you won't even have a chance to try out using a cell phone or eating while driving. You constantly have to shift on city streets as you approach traffic lights and make stops, so you will be pretty busy while driving. But it's fun, so don't think you will dread all the work, you won't even think about it once you get used to it. :D I hate driving with my dad because he's always talking on his cellphone while driving (a stick). It's pretty dodgy.

omigawd why?!? bcuz we get to see boobies amirite?! Lol...

It's a body part *shrug*

Finally got around to seeing Watchmen, and holy [cabbage]e that movie is good. Definitely in my top 5.

Eh whatever, Americans can keep their [cabbage]ty health care system for all I care; as long as the Canadian one stays the same.

Just letting everyone know. This includes Mount & Blade as well as a number of other games. http://www.paradoxplaza.com//index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=565&Itemid=129
