how hosed would someone be trying to play your game if their experience is from paradox interactive games?

There is a bit of specialized terminology to learn (what BINGO / WINCHESTER / VAMPIRE mean), and some physics to learn (radar can't go through mountains, lower altitude flight consumes more fuel).

CMANO is highly educational, its the most techno-thrillerest game out there. If the idea of planning airstrikes on a defended airbase, or defending a carrier from soviet cruise missile submarines sounds interesting its worth giving it a try!

I use steam refunds all the time, you can try it with no risk by buying it on steam and returning it if it doesn't suit you.

i think ppl like hillary and obama are actually p normal ppl
its just that they have lots of power and maybe that makes them seem more wise than they prolly are (im no psychoanalyst man tho)
like hillary is definitely privy to more info than us but i doubt shes actually anymore intelligent than a lot of the posters here

when i was looking for his tweet about his IQ, i found an article that went into the claim his IQ is 156, how it was estimated based on his wharton admissions despite the fact he got a BS in economics and anthropology, didn't take their more prestigious MBA classes and in actuality he transferred from another penn. school where the admissions were way more relaxed, so he probably couldn't have gotten into the easier program on his own lol

Cuba Embargo, 2017

Newly minted president trump has formed the Cuba Quarantine zone after being snubbed by Castro. Several non-american ships have been turned away from Cuba. A multinational EU task force is sailing to Cuba to challenge the quarantine zone with a UNCLOS cruse. Your only communication with POTUS is via twitter, and your orders aren't... clear. Good luck, Admiral.

Shook nate had an interesting post on 538 that if you take all the polls from early June [when it was clear who the nominees would be] they almost perfectly form a sin-wave around a mean of about C +4.5-5. If things turn and we start wandering back up to that level, yeah.
