No, no, no, no.. I am quite certain that he speaks of some sort of thing to throw rocks faster and longer, like a slingshot.

Oohh that sounds very advanced, now Tiso and Tuka will easily be able to drive the Red Horde back to the Urals!
Then again, that might mean they will have to give up their pants, what with the leather and all being used for the slingshots.
Do we know if they even have the pants tech in the first place? For all we know, they could still be at the beginning fig leaf tech.
Slovakians do have umlauts but these impact the length of the syllable rather than changing the pronounciation altogether. That's it for the boring theory 
But after doing some research into my HPP mod, I have to admit Slovakians actually were short on umlauts. There is a place on the map called "Turciansky". Oddly enough, that's just the first part of original name "Turčiansky Svätý Martin", which ceased to be used in 1950, shortening the name of the town just simply to "Martin".
But Cyrillic doesn't use any umlauts. That is, Slovakians had nowhere to get new supply after Soviets came and I believe that the last stock was depleted in late 1949, hence that's why the change was inevitable.
And so I propose this to be new Slovakian war cry:
For glory! For goats! For umlauts!

You know, I can actually hear the General Staff use that rallying cry, and I can actually smell the booze as Tiso unscrews his hip flask for another titanic swig.
I actually heard the term "social realism" in yesterday's literature class...
What do I do? Help me, Internet!

Burn every available heretic. That is the only possible defense against known philosophers.I actually heard the term "social realism" in yesterday's literature class...

Move to Slovakia.
Great advice. The Soviets will catch up to him there and then "social realism" will be the least of his problems.
Hello, I'm El Pip. You may remember me from such AARs as The Butterfly Effect and Furious Vengeance. And this one.
I would quite like to finish this AAR and I believe I will have the time to do so, but having already resurrected it once I feel it's fairly unlikely anyone is still following this. It did start back in November 2011 after all. However if there are still a few wildly optimistic fools following this who would like to see it return, and maybe even reach a finish before it's 4th birthday, then please speak up and we will see Tiso and Tuka ride again (probably straight into a wall).

What do you mean "resurrected"? Surely this was all part of your plan to make the slowest real-time-to-game-time ratio AAR ever written?
And yes, I would be one of those wildly optimistic fools. Which is incidentally a very good description of my character

I just assumed this was another regular hiatus between updates. Actually last month I said to myself "it's about time that Slovakia 1944 AAR gets another update"
So yes, please do!
So yes, please do!
hi el pip
i truly want to see what happens to our brave and corageous slovaks, Tiso and Tuka need a honorable end, but of course, is up to you if you want to continue

I just noticed it today and I've already finished it and I just have to say that it's nothing less than absolutely brilliant. Please do continue on this masterwork!
Why yes, I'll be that "wildly optimistic fool" you speak of. More Tuka and Tiso is always welcome.
I vote Tanks....
*crickets chirping*
Sorry, I appear to be lost.
But seriously, 4 years is nothing. A mere toddler. There have been people born, completed university, married, had children and retired in the time that the Butterfly Effect has been running.

Slower-than-real-time status calculation update
Thank you all for the replies, I am as always amazed at people's enthusiasm for slower than real time AARs. For those not keeping score at home we are currently running at 50 days of game time which has taken us 1360 days of real time, giving us an impressive 27:1 real:game time ratio.
I'm also impressed at Davout's ability to keep the faith in tanks.
Update this very evening upon my return from cricket.

Tiso and Tuka strike back! Of course I would like to see continuation of this AAR!
