What is the best beer to drink whilst playing this awesome game?

I choose Budweiser.

Kronenburg makes for a mellow game.
If playing head to head shots can be a great leveler.
Every time you kill an opponents tank you have to drink one.
Getting an entire tank company in one turn is not advised

I haven't found anything better for this game than hot chocolate or some very good coffee.

Hmmm, maybe we have found the secret to those maps? :D

Although for playing, I'm with Wdll on this. Hot Chocolate for me.

You're in combat. You should be sober.

Come on you guys, a game that is no challenge is no fun. It is no challenge to face the AI without a few brews to loosen the mind. Therefor a few brews = fun. Its completely understandable if you don't drink because:

A. You don't like the way alcohol makes you feel.

B. Your religion does not allow you to.

C. You have to drive or you are at work.

D. you have to watch children or are on a diet.

But if none of those options apply and you are skilled, you should try it.

Cheers,

Andrew

Try a battle with you as the Mujahadeen and your opponent the United States Army*. Give yourself 950 pts to spend and give the AI 9500. I assure you, you will be challanged. Dont foget to give the AI 4 or 5 airstrike too.

Anyhow I don't drink at all. Why? It stinks ,makes me depressed.

* or any other High Quality Army, ie Canada,UK,France,NL,Germany,Isreal, etc

I said if you had a good reason not to drink then it was OK not to, didn't I? If you don't like drinking or it interferes with the rest of your life then that's a good reason not to. As always drink responsibly. I shall have to try your mission suggestion, it sounds like a good challenge, I doubt have have the skills to win though :)

With regards for you suggestion I shall have to try it, it sounds like a good challenge. I seriously doubt I can win :)

I have given what I wrote previously some thought and have come to the conclusion its probably not that hard to make the AI challenging even for a player with medium level skills such as myself. So before you get on your high horse I admit I was wrong to say the game needed beer to make it hard.

Cheers,

I missed that but no worries. Enjoy your beer by all means. I dont mind,as long as I dont have too.

The AI is universally accepted as crippled strategic thinking wize but if you stack the deck in the AI's favor it can be challanging.

It will never be like playing a human being capable of cunning and of course deception.

If it's too much just trim back the AI points until it's an acceptable challange.:cool:

Sorry for double post, I didn't mean for that to happen.

Skirmisher, I'm glade we can end things on the right foot :D

Give the AI 10x buy points more?
You have to be very drunk or insane:doh::hurt:

He wanted a challange. Obviously you missed the part about tailoring the AI buy points to your liking. :shock:

As for being drunk or insane, I'm definetly not drunk.

Gila it was meant in jest & like you I have a partneer who understands even if she thinks I am a bit mad. Well quite a lot actually but that's more of a general viewpoint.<!-- / message -->

I'm willing to bet that there are a few of out there, myself very much included, that think that our wives were probably a little insane when they agreed to marry us. But I'll tell you that I also consider myself very lucky that she did. She also thinks I'm nuts for playing, but, again, I'm glad she doesn't mind too much.

Getting back on topic, I'd be one of those inept, angry drunks if I drank while playing. ("Stupid AI! I'll beat you with my fist!:smash:" Later when sober, "Honey, I dropped the laptop again.")
