My Game "Imperial Glory" won't install. Every time I go and try to install it it loads and just stops. Does anyone know why?
-
Being a imperial glory forum, I'm sure someone will know this. They won't know it on the imperial glory forum, or the Imperial glory tech support site though.

I will never buy a game where italy is able to attack england, even though they missed their chance in ww2.

the italians fought against the british many times during WWII. If you knew anything about history, you'd know that. And yes, they did infact attack english troops in N. Africa and in Italy, they weren't always on the defensive.

I bet Kraut has BF42 Roads to Rome expack. Maybe he doesn't know who the guys are with feather in their hat.

yeah, when it comes to history i bet the guy who has never failed an AP history test wouldn't know about the armies that fought during that time.[/Sarcasm] Dolt. Of course i knew that, did you know there was a micronesian camel korps during that time? Of course you didn't.

rofl i bet you got micronesian camel corps from Forgotten Hope...
Also gotta give you credit considering my grandpa didnt even know who or what that is. Since he actually fought in Algeria..

Here read this. This is why some people spell Africa with a "k"
http://www.trinicenter.com/kwame/2002/Feb/172002.htm
And here is another one that I found:
There are several theories and explanations why many Africans spell Africa with the letter ‘K’ (Afrika). Most use the Afrika spelling to affirm a Africentric politicised belief which symbolizes an ethos of self definition and self determination. This spelling acknowledges that whilst we cannot be certain of the origin of the name 'Africa' we can be sure it is not the true name of the continent. The spelling of it with a ‘k’ is said to symbolise unity with fellow diasporic Africans who share an African centered view of the world. The spelling ‘Africa’ is deemed to represent a European world view.
Note: Many Africans who live on the continent find the ‘Afrika’ term offensive due to its definition by 17th-century Dutch settlers.
Etymology: Afrikaans, from Dutch Afrikaan, an African, which is from Latin Africanus
There are also claims that a Roman general, Scipio Africanus invaded and conquered Africa around 205 BC and the continents name was renamed to honour his ‘achievement’. Historians worldwide refute this myth and explain that Publius Cornelius Scipio was invited to assume the cognomen Africanus after his success in the battle for the ancient city and state in northern Africa named Carthage. His renaming to Scipio Africanus is said to be the first recorded instance of the Roman practice where victors were awarded with titles relating to the region they conquered or pacified. By the time Scipio Africanus died his full title was Publius Cornelius Scipio Aemilianus Africanus Numantinus. Numantinus was added after he secured Spain by besieging and destroying Numantia.
Another popular belief is that before their interaction with Europeans, Africans did not use the letter ‘c’ in their native tongues; the usage of the letter ‘k’ is an attempt to correct a historical wrong. An example often given is that of "Nkosi Sikelel’ iAfrika" the National Anthem of South Africa, Tanzania and Zambia which is also sung in Zimbabwe and Namibia. Some claim that the various versions sung in Bantu languages like Xhosa, Swahili and Zulu which all spell Africa with a ‘k’ prove this as the original spelling. Despite this, there are many doubts about this theory based on the fact that Enoch Sontonga, who composed it in 1897 was a teacher at a Methodist mission school in Johannesburg. In fact South Africa's anthem today is an amalgam of two anthems - Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika and the Afrikaans anthem, Die Stem van Suid Afrika (The call of South Africa), written by the European South African (Afrikaans) poet CJ Langenhoven in 1918.
Oh and nice spam ya'll. And you say I am bad Kraut. Let's look who started the spam on this one.

yeah, i got the micronesian thing from Forgotten Hope. But still...good information.
You're lucky your grandpa is still alive if he fought in algeria, he's got to be in his early 80s. Juice him for as much information you can get, survivors of the N. African theatre are hard to find, learn up on it from him.
And i didn't correct you on the Afrika with a "K" because a lot of countries spell it that way.

Wow....
This went from helping me to making fun of kraut.
That's a big jump..... And Kraut italy sucked during WW2. they depended on Nazi Germany, they could never defeat britian.
