    90% of the time that I have seen him command, he will loose due to him getting sticky stunned in enemy territory. IF he stopped doing that shit he could be good com.

    That's all he does as commander.

    It's like saying Hitler would be good at leading germany if he didn't kill as many jews or start wars.
    Take away those two things and he's useless at leading germany.

    Not totally true. Before he became leader he wasn't an ass. The more he came into power the more of an ass he became. He didn't start out wanting to kill jews. He joined a group of people who hated jews to gain more power and ended up going with that mantra to become leader because it was getting him places. The old saying "power corrupts" rings true even here.

    Oh flasche, if we don't believe and mindlessly repeat everything we read on the internet, how will we ever advance as a society?

    Hitler was such a good little boy. He made plenty of paintings... but couldn't make a living that way. Killing people and being an ass gets you places faster, and gets you money.

    Hitler did do wonders for the economy though. Self sufficiency of a nation will always do that, so it's a bit of a no brainer I guess.

    Also, I love Hobbes' boomtanking because it's so fucking funny trying to save him. I vote for him as comm and literally follow his CV around, trying to protect him as best I can. It makes for a really fun round. I don't vote and love him as my commander because he's good, I like his commanding because he's so bad.

    yeh he did wonders by taking everything from jews and the countries he occupied. he also got heavily funded by the german industry.
    id call that a decent buisness plan.

    the 3rd reich would have never been sustainable ...

    when all jews would have been killed, who should have been left for hitler to kill so he can stay at the power

    I think I caught Opie like twice, once stickies were introduced. That's outta dozens, with the whole team being distracted. I don't think i'll ever stop thinking he was the best.

    He's not now, but I think you guys have a ways to go before you can get to that level of proficiency. Or perhaps it's just not possible anymore.

    Tip: Don't vote hobbes for commander if you want the game to last longer than 5 minutes.

    I played three games as NF yesterday on EPIC. Hobbes commanded. He was a pure retard most of the time, but the team managed to stickystun the opposing comm, and win.

    2 out of those 3 rounds I was the stunner. See the point in my post now?

    Also, 1, 3 and 6 of the Protips are now incorrect.

    Some might call it cheating when you make a nation self sustaining by expanding it to fill a continent.
