“Rumple Mintz” Victory Condition (Punishment)

Rumple Mintz;  Each time Germany takes Moscow, Leningrad, or Stalingrad, it must also take one (1) shot of Rumple Mintz.   If Russia recaptures Moscow or Berlin, it must take one shot of Schnapps (Germany player decides revolting flavor).   The second and subsequent time that Germany takes a Russian capital, it must take one additional shot of Rumple Mintz.

hmm… thought rumple minze was schnapps. Guess I need to do some research : )
Should prove to be an enjoyable process : )

@Tall:

By the way,….this is reported as the World’s Tallest Flagpole, and it is so large,….

Actually this is North America’s tallest flagpole. I believe the tallest in the world are in North and South Korea.

Either way, very impressive and inspiring. Thanks for the read Paul.

Indeed! Merry Christmas, and a wonderful 2014, to all of you!

Merry Jewmas!

Ok Ok…Its just hard to see that in hawaii its 3 hours BEFORE pacific time, but in japan its basically TOMORROW.

Fk and FS - i think you guys just wasted a lot of time and energy addressing a point that was not even made. I’ve even stated before that the bible is not a scientific text, and one should not use it for scientific purposes (even tho’ i believe it speaks of the “God of science”). Rather i believe EG’s point is that if you are looking at history one must consider it from more than one angle. To study the War of Independance/Revolutionary War from the American point of view, then the things you will learn is American bravery in the face of hardship, heroism in the face of overwhelming forces, etc. A British reading will demonstrate opportunism, luck, supply problems and inability to cope with guerilla tactics.
The same is with history. If we read it from an agnostic/atheist point of view only then we will get a completely different understanding of what the world was like relative to a Christian or Jewish point of view. Not to say one would be necessarily right - they all “push an agenda”.

ahhhh, memories memories, last christmas
