Plot is a gay cop is in trouble for punching a handcuffed Nazi in the face because he was being mean to a minority woman

Funny how these things become topical again

So you support the precedent of cops beating handcuffed civilians?

Might come back to haunt you...

It's a pretty bad show TBH but it has some killer moments including one of my favorite dark jokes ever.

It's kinda dated too. "Lol his wife want sex but hedoesn't because he's dead inside lol" kinda was done to death with Al Bundy. And they repeat it every single episode here with no variance or new spin

Ahhh....

...I still think the final scene of Black Adder is a masterpiece, for what is supposed to be a comedy show.
I could post it.

I think I've said this before but my dad had a dog named after balderick and it was the most fitting dog name ever.

He was so much like his namesake it was hilarious. Always had a cunning plan.

Ya, Verdun is a badass game, and I am not an FPS bro....but the community doesn't play like that anyway.

The game itself is very respectful of WWI. They even referenced that scene in one of their books you kind in the fields, but they seemed to have removed it. It simply said, Buggers. The devs actually comfermed it, but they seemd to have removed for w/e reason. ((All the casks in the game are wrong though)) That a minor detail, but it triggers me.

Anyway, I don't think you need to heavy of a gaming pc to play it.

I would certainly check it out, it's not some call of duty or...whatever that other one is type of game.

Flanders is one of the maps.

It was one of the battles I learned about at school as it was one of the bloodiest. Your post is like saying anything pre 1917 means nothing to Americans considering they didnt enter until 1917. But from a Blackadder standpoint and the character being British the Somme makes much more sense.

Ahhh, Verdun in this sense is the Title of game. The game is called Verdun, but has many maps. It's by far the best and most respectful WWI game that involves trench warfare.

Tannenberg on the other hand depicts the Eastern Side of WWI.

It's been years since I've seen this, but I'm pretty sure that cop isn't written as gay in the show. In fact he'd constantly make advances towards that woman.

Police abuse = bad
Punching Nazi = good

In this case, the bad outweighs the good because the endorsement of police abuse has more far-reaching harms.

So bad but understandable.

@CanuckCowboy

Wait WTF really?

I think I do remember it being Canadian. Holy Shit!!!
I was kinda wondering how you knew it when I quoted it...like, a year ago.
That's crazy. But awesome.

If you have a gaming PC and Epic game store, Verdun is free to play this week.
I don't have Epic Game's or w/e, but I noticed a ton of new users.
If you have steam, I will gift it to you.

I have a steam card right here because there are about to launch a new game on the Italian front.

Tomorrow is actually my birthday, or for whatever reason, the devs have at least twice, dropped new maps for free, on July 24...with no notice...just, hey guys there ya go.

I don't think Isonzo will be released tomorrow, but it is a day one purchase.
I actually played like the second round of Tannenburg when it was released.

Lol yeah he's definitely the most notable person in my family that I'm aware of. For the first like 15 years of my life I got issued a new Flanders fields picture book with the poem and then I guess the government just said thats it his family has got enough free books. Hahaha.

My middle name is actually McCrae. Which is cool but also all my names are surnames. Couldn't even get an original. >_>

Thanks! Unfortunately I lost my steam account when my desktop died earlier this year. I suck at passwords. Lol. I'm gonna get epic and see if my old laptop will run it though. It probly will but its pretty old too so we'll see.

Okay, well first....about the names. Mine is Campbell, as one other person here may know.

My family's claim to fame is The Campbell Diagram, which is still in use today.

Verdun is available on a number of......fronts.....and it doesn't take too much to load.
I think even an old PC can run it. Depending on the settings.

~And yes, I hope you got the joke.
Thank god we weren't born back then.

WWI was awful.

I am still kinda amazed that poem came from your family....who would have thunk it.
He was a good man.

You will die though.

It is a PTSD simulator...there is no, getting shot five times and running of to a little room, to heal up.

Almost everything is a one-shot kill.

It's very respectful to the war.

Thank you, I chose to overlook it.

I never really thought to set that to music, but it can work.

I'd probably give it a treatment like The Blue Bird by, Charles Villiers Stanford.
~If I could write that well...but maybe I could.

While playing Verdun a player and I randomly started reciting the poem once.
