Yeah... but you need an A2 instead of an A3 ;)

Same basic idea. If I get an AK, then I'll be on the loser side  :P

I voted for We Were Soldiers, but my favorites are Braveheart, and The Patriot.  There are so many good war movies out there, too many for me to really think about right now. I love John Wayne movies, and Windtalkers never gets old...

Never seen Saving Private Ryan or Full Metal Jacket though...

Ben and I talked a lot about trying to do something like a black hawk down scenario, but never really did much with it.  Also, Proof of Life would be a good scenario to play around with.

Yes I have taken my shoes off during games.  Yes I have 2 of the same guns. No I am not a little boy...I am in fact female, so don't say "kill the little kid".  No Tanker and I aren't married...yet. Does that dispel all the myths about me? LOL

There's a difference between a war movie and a Tarantino splatterfest.
