Sunday
As we hope to be moving to a new server some time soon (hopefully very soon), Samizdata.net may be unavailable for a short time during the DNS switch over.

Dear Perry
During the downtime, content yourself with visiting www.matrixgames.com
You will find the most accurate military war game ever at that location called Steel Panthers World At War. SPWAW. What's more it is free. You will need broadband to download it because it is huge.
Don't expect a shoot 'em up, this one is for real!!!
If you like military simulations, that one will keep you engaged for at least five months.
For performance information on the weapons and tactics from Gulf 2, contact Francis Tusa at Defence Analysis Magazine. He has all the answers & seems to be a great chap. I e-mailed him a few times while he was at Sky News as defence analyst for Gulf 2.
Like you, I have a huge fascination with all things military from weaponary to tactical operations & strategic theatres.
Best Of Luck.
