May Development Update!

Emma Watson, Kiera Knightley, Cheryl Cole, Liz Hurley, Kelly Brook, Kate Middleton.

I was going to say "Really? is that the best there is? what about..." when I realised that all of my alternates were Polish/Czech

As for the Scots, I'm sure I read that the women they have representing their tourist boards are generally Polish or Czech.

Generally, because it's hard to find a local thin enough to avoid the expense of a gatefold cover on their brochure*

What are they trying to tell you? "Come to Bonnie Scotland where this lass will find you strangely attractive, if only to avoid deportation when her visa runs out.


*Obviously, I'm completely opposed to the sexualising of tourist brochures, or any other periodical for any item, through the use of women in any way. Or men for that matter.

The Brits have Gemma Atkinson and Lena Headey (Queen Cersei) as well. Quality over quantity, eh?

agreed, Liz Hurley is the living proof.

The Swedish crown princess is something to rest the eyes upon, I'd dare say. Of course it's not a lowly recruit's place to do so in the presence of his future regent, but hey...

On a more serious note, I think the British wins the famous women contest, most Swedish actresses don't look that good. Noomi Rapace (or how you spell that) looks damn good in Sherlock Holmes 2, but that's about it, methinks.

Anyhows... One of my little birds whispered something about a May update in June? I'm not sleeping well, excuse the random rambling.

I'm currently playing on easy at the moment (I know, I know), but I noticed Selenium Missiles don't appear to need replenishment from Stores. Does that mean as long as I have at least have one missile in stores, I can attach that to a plane and continue to use it over and over again?

Also I think I've encountered a bug whereby if I don't use a laser cell in a mission, it increases the amount in the stores after each mission. For example I create two cells. If I don't use those cells in a mission, stores will increase the total to four.

The missile thing is a known bug. I'm not sure about the laser cells though. Only thing I've noticed there is that if you don't use up a cell, it's recharged after the mission.

Males can never talk about females without talking about what they look like?

i believe i was talking about their lack of promiscuity, didn't say much about their looks. i thought france or england would have the smartest women, but from the looks of it might be the U.S. which really surprises me.

[Shima]

I can confirm that czech women are beautiful. And not just the famous sort!

Which brings me to czech soldiers in the game. I was quite surprised they are in, among so few other nationalities. What led you to put them in, Chris? (I hope his router works already )

[Chris]

Because the Soviet Union contained more than one nation, as does NATO. Would be unfair to just have NATO and then the entire USSR populated by Russians!

[Shima]

Yep, I deducted that from Hungarian and Ukrainian soldiers. It's very nice touch!
But we were Czechoslovakia back then, that's why I'm asking.

(Not trying to be too nitpicky, just curious)
