MURPHY'S LAWS of COMBAT 1.You are not a superman 2.If it's stupid but works,it isn't stupid 3.Don't look conspicuous-it darws fire (This is why aircraft carriers are called,"Bomb Magnets".) 4.When in doubt,empty your magazine 5.Never share a fox hole with anyone braver than you are 6.Never forget that your weapon was made by the lowest bidder 7.If your attack is going really well, it's an ambush 8.No plan survives the frist conact intact 9.All five-second grenade fuse will burn down in three seconds 10.Try to look unimportant because the bad guys may be low on ammo 11.If you are forward of your position,the artillery will fall short 12.The enemy diversion you are ignoring is the main attack 13.The important things are always simple 14.The simple things are always hard 15.The easy way is always mined 16.If you are short of everything except enemy,you are in combat 17.When you have secured an area,don't forget to tell the enemy 18.Incoming fire has the right of way 19.Friendly fire-isn't 20.If the enemy is in range,"SO ARE YOU!!!!" 21.No combat ready unit has ever passed inspection 22.Beer math is :two beers times 37 men = 49 cases 23.Body count math is : two guerillas plus one portable plus two pigs = 37 enemy 24.Things that must be together to work,usually can't be shipped together 25.Radio's will fail as soon as you need fire support desperately 26.Anything you do can get you shot - including doing nothing 27.Tracers work both ways 28.The only thing more accurate than incoming enemy fire is incoming friendly fire 29.Make it tough for the enemy to get in and you can't get out 30.If you take more than your fair share of objectves,you will have more than your fair share of objectives to take 31.When both sides are convinced that they are about to lose,they are both right 32.Proessional soldiers are predictable,but the world is full of amateurs 33.Murphy was a grunt







Fleetcommander unser!

Fleetcommander unser der du bist in der covert,
geheiligt werde dein calling,
deine damage dealer kommen,
wie im 0.0 - so auch im empirewar.
Unsere t\xe4gliche Schlacht gib uns heute,
und vergib uns unser friendly fire,
wie auch wir vergeben unseren Smartbombern,
Und f\xfchre uns nicht ins carebeartum,
sondern erl\xf6se uns vom Blob.
Denn dein ist das BS und der HAC und der interceptor,
in Ewigkeit
