Ohh I know there are other formats around but they also put there rules up on there web site for all to read. I meant our rules were on the website and its really easy to find. I did not reallize at the time, but most people coming into this don't go right to the rules to figure out how this is gona be done. they just want some one to come allong and tell them about it while they tell of there exploding torpedoes that blow up 2k grand ships into tooth pick sized shrapnel. Those usually didn't think it out, and think it would have been cool.
If you read my post, my questions were to SEEK the rules. Yes I did give much more info than there are rules for, but it should have been very clear that I am not here to see the $2000 models to be destroyed into toothpicks.
I am sorry, but your pessimisim and the way it appeared to come off at me is not conducive to promoting your hobby that I am very interested in learning about.
Again, I am not one of these guys who is here to see firecrackers and small cannons blowing up expensive models. If you would have given the website address or link in your first reply to me and at least had a neutral tone in that reply, I would not have felt as uncomfortable as I do now.
You could have simply said "You can find our rules at
www.MWCI.org " and that would have been exactly what I am looking for.
Sorry for drifting off topic, it's just that I am very fascinated by the history of the Deutchland cruisers (the Graf Spee in particular) and I have played several table top simulations of the final battle of the Graf Spee off of Uruguay. Hearing about the possibility of recreating battles using floating models really fascinates me.
At the top of this forum is some thing called a stickie. stickified is a list of all known combat clubs and MWCI is the first on the list. U skipped right past it. That is why I am coming across as an ass to you but people that don't go look for the rules in the first place are not the kind of people we want in the clubs. People like you don't use FAQ's or Stickies or read forum rules before asking your questions. You seem to think that we should run to your post and answere as long as this holds your attention. We put stickies in forums for a reason, do not skip them.
U see the answeres to your questions were put out there for you to read to your harts content but no u came here and demanded we all come to u. U may not realize it but the club is watching new members, and we are grading u. U have failed the first part of the test. U see we don't need to keep new members coming in, we can do just fine with out you. We are more concerned with the type of people we have coming in than just numbers. We want buddies for battlers not dicks & ass hats.
U will not do well in this hobby if you are not a Indipendant type who can do quality work on there own, but has no problem conforming to the rules. DOing things by the book. that sort of thing. so since you come accross to me as some kind of Kid teen that probably thinks the world revolves around you I say, "**** OFF!!" we don't want you. try back in about 10 years maybe 20 for you.
