When everywhere around you is the perfect place to ambush those panzers that are surly just minutes away.

When you understood a fair bit of the movie Tali Ihantala 1944, just from playing FH1's Karelia so often.

So... what did you understand, exactly?

Heh heh. You just pushed Flippy's Berserk button.
So... what did you understand, exactly?
There he is.
Hint: FH1's "Karelia" Map is fairly inaccurate. And Flippy will tell you that "Karelia" is an entire territory covering several dozen square kilometers. It's like naming a map "Normandy" and leaving it like that, even though it only showcases a small battle in that territory.
Flippy, I'm sorry if I got any of that wrong. I mean no disrespect, of course. Please don't stab me with your puukko.

Oh you got me all wrong. There was no rage or hate involved within that question at all. Just curiosity. Always interested to know what non-finns think about our wars and how do they see and understand them.
-
...When you girlfriend joins the surfer just to see you.
-
Actually, about people dreaming about FH2, that doesn't indicate at all your doing it too much. Your brains jsut memorize everything you did the past days and create a nice dream of it. This could include things we would rather not see in our dreams, like games and stuff as it feels like you can't think about anything else, hehe.
-

Hahaha, i recognize that one ;D

Nope, hairs to short, try again!!!

you know you've played too much FH when... you need to hold yourself from asuming a military stance/ performing an 'I'm holding a gun and firing it military style'-impersonation, evidence that you are daydreaming about some past action on a FH server
you know you've played too much FH when... you find yourself jump a puddle or something and get concerned you might run out of stamina in the event you need to dash helter-skelter from some marauding tan... oh, ya... real life

Congratulations! You win the award for least-original and least-funny jokes on the thread! Seriously, all you've been doing is saying "...when you shout (insert random commo-rose option here)!!!"

...you actually start wanting to own and go to war with the POS that is the breda 30.
...you've - no, wait, you can never play too much FH ;D

Hehe, I wasn't clear enough. I meant I understood a decent amount of the dialogue in the movie (I am trying to learn to speak Finnish) because of playing FH1's Karelia so many times.

It was Carentan outskirts... So you're more right than you think... ya, best episode for combat... I do this too... watch SPR or BoB or even History and go to play for the nation involved... Did that for Poland maps after the anniversary of the start of the war.. kinda cruel, but I'm human, and impusive

You're hiking with friends and tell them where you would place a sniper, machine-gunner and riflemen platoon ... and possibly an AT gun.
When in real life is there ever a situation that you shouting "fire in the whole" would be appropriate?
Throwing a frosty into the drive-thru window is often accompanied by 'FIRE IN THE HOLE!' as you laugh and speed away.

I dont know whether to laugh my ass off or check you into the nearest gun store and get you some ammunition

.... you get tennis elbow :(
Causes
Why did I develop tennis elbow?
Overuse of the muscles and tendons of the forearm and elbow are the most common reason people develop tennis elbow. Repeating some types of activities over and over again can put too much strain on the elbow tendons. These activities are not necessarily high-level sports competition. Hammering nails, picking up heavy buckets, playing too much FH2, or pruning shrubs can all cause the pain of tennis elbow.
>:(
Here's to game night tomorrow! ;D

Months ago, i was terribly ill. I had a fever of 39.3 Degree's, and headache, runny nouse and you can name it.
Before i went to bed, well, went from my Couch downstairs to the bed, i decided to play a bit of FH2. We had one round of Operation Totalize. Wich was one fantastic round. Teamwork on BOTH teams, constant figthing over flags (not flaghopping) At both teams 100 Tickets left, we turned the tie, by stationing our 17PDR beasts (and me with the churchill MK IV 6PDR ofcourse!) on the railroad tracks under the bridge at Comm's HQ
Truly great round, and before i went to bed, their was a discussion about the ratte/maus
I then had this weird goddam night, i woke up, i fell asleep, and half between. I dreamed off totalize.........but i was at the arty battery i dunno, and in front of me, over the river, a Frakking ratte. But it was such a hallucinating dream that it actually felt like i was fucking their! (the doctor later said this is possible when you have a feaver)
But this wassent the weird part! First of all, the Ratte had a PERFECT sherman olive green color. This with BLUE swastika's, and some turret on the Ratte HIS turret. Now this image came back all the time, waking up, falling back asleep.
It was such a weird dream, but it felt so real. I waked up for real, and i truly was catching my breath and sweaty. I could still hear explosions. I swear, Dafalgan is the most common medicene, but it truly fraks up your mind
When i told my experience to my (ex)Girlfriend back then, with minor details, She got an almost same dream as i had days later, with her, standing on a hill, seeing a 2 story high Tank over the river.........
Trust me, i dint played FH2 for 3 weeks after that
-
This with BLUE swastika's
Ah-ha! Proof that the devs are going to include Finnish Air Force Rattes in the future versions of FH2!

Got a summer job working at a 'nature resort' (basically a park in the woods with a load of campsites, a hotel, a couple pools, hot tub, that kind of thing). My job for the past month or so is to get it ready for summer, raking leaves and cleaning the pool out and that kind of thing. I've been introduced to a great many tools, plenty of which make for great air guitars but nothing that even remotely reminded me of Forgotten Hope, even though I tried as hard as I could to make that happen, until today, when I got to trade in my trusty shovel (which now that I'm sitting here writing this out probably should've reminded me of a good few spaten assaults on enemy flags) for a fancy kind of shovel. I don't know the exact name of it but it's a long broom handle with a lightbulb-shaped thing on the end, and stick it in the ground and by pulling a lever instantly dig a small hole, perfect for fence posts, which is what I was installing today.
The thing is, this tool, whatever it's called, looks like a panzerfaust. The silhouette is nearly identical. You stick the fausty end of it in the ground, press the lever (near where the trigger would be), and voila, in goes a fence post. Except I wasn't building fences today, I was hunting Shermans in Normandy. I wasn't digging holes in the ground today, I was sneaking across a field in Russia on the hunt for some T-34s. It's been a long time coming, but I've finally found a tool I use at work I can manage to bullshit myself into daydreaming of FH for. The gun for the power washer looks nothing like my trusty G43, the leaf rake doesn't look anything like a PIAT, but God damn, all it takes is a little imagination and this fence-hole digging thing can blow up any tank for miles around.
-
The last time i used one it was called a "post hole digger"...
good one, I think the bush is getting to your head though.
-
You should be getting your head in some bushes if you're working at a nature resort for summer... ;)
I posted this in IRC the other day:
Basically, a while back I was driving through a parking lot and coming around a corner, and was almost past the pickup parked in the corner stall when I noticed it backing up, straight for my passenger (right) rear door. Instict kicked in an I gassed it and tried to straighten out. I got out of the way of the backing pickup...and found a pickup bumper in front of me (couldnt turn wheel fast enough, was angled towards parked cars). Nothing major, just a ding, but I was confused for a while as to why I didnt think to honk or something else.
Then, it came to me. That instinctual reaction was my inner FH tanker taking over. Spotting an enemy tank sighting in on my flank when there is cover ahead invokes that reaction: full throttle for cover, everything else lower priority. You see, I learned to tank in FH long before I learned to drive a car...
-
Andrew's story really reminds me of The Shining. The loneliness is making you insane!
-
Haha love the Shining reference!
You know you've played too much FH when you relate bumping into an ex on campus to meeting a Tiger II head on. Then later kick yourself for engaging it rather than popping a smoke shell to hide your retreat like you should have...
