postman's been busy with work and life. Anyhow, closing thread, starting the voting process!

YOU...YOU COMMUNIST!

Flags don't have borders, ammendments to the US constitution do. God, Fletch was right, I do need to repeat to myself "They're all 14, they're all 14..."

I got bored very fast of running A or B and stuck with my TFC, thank you very much.

Because a symbol pretaining to a nation, within that nation is more pertinent to that nation. A religious symbol has no national boundaries.

National. Pretaining to a nation. Religious. Not pretaining to any one nation. There.

Yes it does. Thoroughly. One is a domestic issue of national importance and the other is a non-state issue of religious importance. Now you're just being obtuse. Where do you get this shit? Do you just channel dead crazy people or what?

Somewhere an icky place in my brain almost thinks that this shit was engineered by right-wing Christian fundamentalists over here so as to usher in their supposed rapture. Boy are they going to be pissed when it doesn't happen.

Let me carve out the operative words: National Religious A flag is a national symbol to the people of a nation. Having a national law against something of national importance (perceived or otherwise) is inherently different. A religious symbol is a matter to the people of that religion. It is an extra-state entity with no bearing on a nation's laws unless that nation is a theocracy. Do you have any idea about the difference between domestic policy, nation-states and religious entities? These two things have. no. fucking. bearing. on each other.

Other than the means of destruction there is no correlation since the two are completely different subjects. One is a national symbol the other is a religious artifact. What the fuck are you on about? Seriously.

Like I said earlier: TWO HITLERS ENTER ONE HITLER LEAVES! EVA BRAUN RUNS BARTER TOWN!

Woohoo, I can walk home afterwards. Fucking hell, the Gaylord hotel (not making that name up) was a long fucking ways away from anything. I'll probably be stationed there for a day, so stop by and meet me if you want and we can commiserate about the smell of human grease and nerdstink that permeates these events. I'll be at the Quakewars booth most likely.

There is still no bearing here on what's going on in the US with the failed flag burning ammendment. For whatever reason you're still trying to inject this shit into something completely different. Domestic policy regarding a national symbol != domestic policy regarding a non-state entity's religious symbols.

Domestic. Policy. I can't make this any simpler.

These are ace! Great work, Yell!

You still haven't drawn a correlation at all. You're trying to inject something that has no bearing on the domestic policies of the US. Get out of this thread and cease the trolling.

Because there is a huge canyon of difference between the two. One is a cloth symbol of a nation and the other is an artifact of a particular non-state entity. That's really how simple it is. What you're trying to relate here have no correlation other than each are sometimes burned. The causes, the freedoms to do each and the reprecussions from are completely and totally different. To put it very very simply: if someone burns a US flag in another country who cares. They're angry at us and let them be. If someone burns a US flag here I really don't care because it generally just means they're dumbasses with an omgrageagainstthemachine~~! attitude and merit little attention. It matters most to one nation though and just to the people within that nation. However, Islam is an ancient faith that goes beyond national borders and effects many people regardless of nationality, race or heritage. Burning its articles is a bit more personal and offensive than someone torching any flag. But yes, we get it, you don't like brown people what worship that allah chap, we get it already RD. Trust me.

The flag burning ammendment means that US citizens cannot burn American flags. How the hell does this have anything to do with the EU and how you tools fucked up with that cartoon and its reprinting? I think you're really stretching here.

How the hell does that even correlate, at all? What...the fuck? This doesn't even make cognitive sense. RD, have you taken your meds?

Why do you hope so? I pledge allegiance to this nation, not a stupid piece of cloth made in some backwater ex-communist east-asian country. The flag is a symbol, but it is not our strength and burning it is no greater a threat to the United States than any of the dumb chest-pounding attempts at nationalism the right is currently using to drum up support in the upcomings.

Eek. I completely spaced out! I'm so sorry Polaris D:~ To make things better I show you a potential airstrike bomber model that you can call in via the dispenser unit Enjoy this for now! I'll see about getting the build up onto a download space later on.

I don't know off hand. However, I do know that we did remove some of the caps on texture sizes and such. I still think polycounts should be kept low-ish. Were you thinking of making something?

My friend Tom (coder for Wasteland HL, Dead Cities, etc) is doing the coding work right now. Although I'd like to see about getting more people on the project to speed it up.

Yes and yes. The only difference between a commandante and a regular soldier is that he's the only one that can drop a dispenser unit. Once it is deployed he can use it to upgrade his main gun just the same as anyone else (but he can also pick up the dispenser and drop it off elsewhere). He can drop his main gun as a turret as well.

Dispenser that the Commandante drops to supply his troops with new weapons. I didn't like the turrets I did earlier so I revamped them to be like this. Oooo, they transform! Turret all closed up! The dispenser closes up the same way and can be carried on the backs of the player models.
