They built more than trenches. Their complex systems of walls and gunning positions, as well as trenches, would have proven faital to a non-blitzkrieging army. Germany was employing tactics that had never been seen before, by any army. France had prepared as best they could, and fair ed as well as possible, being the only* super power on the continent that was directly under Germany's muzzle.

*I know I'm going to take some heat from this by the Italian and Greek guys here, so, France was the only one that had either not allied themselves with Germany, or didn't have a sweet set of mountains that can't be crossed.

p.s. its short hand to write faster It takes ten times longer to decipher those near cryptic posts. When you join this forum, you are expected to carry yourself in an adult manner. Leave the AIM and Leet speak in chatrooms. This is a FORUM.

Hey airsoftblitzkrieg,
Ich will dir herzlich Willkommen! Just want to say welcome and remark that there seem to be a number of us that can speak at least some degree of German. For the next Chicagoland event, we should try to employ this. :-)

LOL!!! Maybe guinness know some italian but babelfish (or the programme that you used) doesn't know italian language! I was joking anyway, the grammar between english and italian is totally different! Me ne Frego means I don't care of it. maybe useful in game for a good impression... but not used so much by soldiers... I am glad to be here, together with a lot of friends! WW2 airsoft is not so known in italy... maybe because is a lot expensive... Bye bye!!!!

LoL Actually it's Google translator, which is a re-branded bablefish And for those that are curious, here is what I said, (basically): "I am just going to say some random things to see if anyone tries to translate this. It is a well known fact that Italians are smarter than all the other countires, only Americans are as smart and handsome as Italians.....well and Spaniards too they are pretty good-looking. I am very happy to have members from Italy!, Thank you Marco!" ;D Ciao! -G

Hello, been surfing the boards for the past couple days and finally figured I should just sign up. Got a Thompson (figures) and a 1911, and am looking to get a Paratrooper look. Having trouble finding the boots though (I wear a 14). Anyway, hello all, glad to finally become a member, I wish I had found this place sooner.
