[unmerged(105989)]

610: Because it brings together history nerds in pursuit of a common world conquest goal.

611: Because this is the only forum I've ever been to where Chuck Norris jokes are thrown around (I'm not counting the latrines at NTC or JRTC)

 

[unmerged(63575)]

612: Because I can play HOI2 while Obama turns the 44th president of USA

 

[unmerged(114103)]

613: Reasons 1 to 17, 228-293, 446 and 590

614: Because I can make love with germany.

615:Because we can have a black American president before historical year(with modding of course )

 

[ColossusCrusher]

616. Because we know that had Obama lost, riots would have ensued.

This is gonna be "too much HoI2" but I'll go anyway:

617. When your history teacher says that France was conquered in 6 weeks, you start laughing hysterically and say "SIX? And you call that fast warfare!?"

618. When helping that nice girl studying history, you eventually start to speak about divisions, Junkers prototypes, Wehrmacht small arms, Russian military doctorine, your voice starts going down, you begin look up your eyes fully open. When you look down again, you don't know where you are.

619. When you chat with girls, first thing you ask is that in which division their grandfather(s) fought during WW2.

620. You hate someone for not knowing where is Elbing.

621. You think that total war is only form of warfare.



Part 618 happened to me. She hasn't spoken to me since that day.

 

[ColossusCrusher]

Could you explain 618 in a bit more detail?

622. Because people share anecdotes like #618.

623: Because HOI like Red Bull gives you wings. ^^^

I hate to say it but - I recently broached 619 with Mrs J. She was not amused.

624: When she tells you he was a great general you respond "no he wasn't, he was only skill 1 and Old Guard, hell if i could i'd remove him in the beggining of the game with a mod"

625 because you can make Tibet the domiating power in Asia(With Obama as Dalai Lama if you like to edit)

 

[Rush]

626 Cause you can try to do the impossible like win as Germany in 1944 scenario

 

[unmerged(62803)]

627. because when your history teacher says belgium fell in 18 days you say it lasted until the allies invaded d-day

 

[blwizard]

628. I'm reading through this forum despite the fact that there's an exam coming up tomorrow and I'm still unprepared .

 

[ozidnz]

629: Because Swastikas don't hurt your eyes.
630:Because Blue Emu tell you the cruizerg tactics and you want to try it.
631:Because we can't wait till Q3 2009.
632:If we can finish this list before HoI 3 released, it will be awesome.

629.) Now I know that the Royal Family of belgium is more couragious than ours(the dutch.)Leopold didn't want to leave his troops behind.

 

[ozidnz]

634: Because HoI players always forgot to look at last reply :rofl:

635. Because only HoI player mix real-life history and replayed history so well

636. Because you wonder why the Americans built so many Carriers. A few Cruizerg fleets would have been much more cost effective.
