scottish notes are an invitation to forgers everywhere to go nuts.
from my (limited - mostly cab driver) experience of meeting americans they dont even know that the Uk or britain or whatever exists, let alone what countries make it up. several people said 'are you from london' and talked about 'london money'. the impression i got was they thought that theres a little island somewhere east called london. it consists of about 20 people. all of them have very bad teeth, and drink tea with the queen every day.
of course, i only have very limited experience and so of course most americans are not as stupid as i have just made out. thats just the people i met on holiday.

thats what i like about these forums really. you have people from all around the world and all of them with at least a basic knowledge of where countries are and what happened in the past. i remember a girl at my school a couple of years ago asking who won WW1. i nearly cried.
I wouldn't be able to think of someone more fitting, though trekaddict might have thought of someone else (hope not, Einstein will do, I think).BritishImperial said:is it mr einstein?
In all of the years playing HOI1&2, I've used a nuke but once. It was just to see what happens when you do use it. (Must admit that in my LAN game with my brother, I'm researching nukes like mad. He's playing USA and me Germany (my favourite nation). I've got more experiance than him in the game, but he's got... well, THE USA!)trekaddict said:Just a thing ahead: I absolutely and perfectly hate Nuclear Weapons. Period.
As much as I like using them in the game, in this AAR, if I manage to develop them in time I will only use them if I absolutely have to.
EDIT: I seriously recommend watching Trinity and Beyond - The Atomic Bomb Movie. Absolutely and perfectly terrifying.
Thank you for that sage advice, although I must confess it wasn't something I was thinking of trying.trekaddict said:Also some piece of advice, from something I am currently experiencing. Never, EVER leave a whole flank of your Barbarossa to Paratrooper Units alone. This Soviet Counteroffensive is bloody hard to beat off... o

Anyway, interesting update, looking forward to find out why Einstein's death was faked. Perhaps because others are working on Nukes? Or because Britain doesn't want anyone to know that they are?
Whatever may I suggest keeping Big E away from any actresses until his work is done, without Miss Monroe to sate his appetites I dread to think what he would do!
