Plus, tbh only idiots don't know what those terms mean. I mentioned the wiki bage in one of his other threads (i can't remember which, there's been far too many).

If anyone else just started doing this they'd have been banned after the 3rd thread.

Who the fuck cares about any other badge than mod or admin.

It's not like they do any fucking thing.

Brecourt: German Artillery Position
Refers actually to Brecourt Manor, not Brecourt itself (at Sottevast).

Panzer: Heavily armored tank
No, Panzer is just German for "tank" (in a war context) - used by Allies to indicate a German tank. Although there were tanks named Panzers, which progressed to heavier armour, Panzers were tanks, heavily armoured or not. Just tanks.

Chute: Parachute
I can't work out whether you think everyone's retarded, or it took a while to make that connection.

Weapons, German or Allied
Really, these should be self-explanatory for anyone playing the game and not spectating. If you look at a weapon, it shows you the picture, the name and the instruction to press F to pick it up. We don't need to be told that the picture is actually the gun described.

Normandy: Large forest in France
What?
