2$hort has passed on
I regret to inform you, our beloved friend passed away on Friday, April 7. 2016.
He passed in his sleep after a long and vigilant battle against pancreatic cancer. He lived how he wanted to live, he made an impact in each one of our lives. He may have not been a very outgoing man, but he had a great personality, a great mind; charish your memories of 2$hort, they're surely colorful. 2$hort was one of us, he was genuine, he was a fantastic conversationalist, he was our brother.

As all men must do, he has moved beyond our world, his story and his legacy will be carried on through us, it's our job to remember him.

Rest easy, brother.

:sr4fleurdelis: My short Bio :sr4fleurdelis: Updated: 2/23/2016

I'm a Guy: 36: Retired offically until my cancer goes into remission or well you know. I moved back home with family while undergoing Treatment. This is to reduce the amount of stress in my life. I've also learned to enjoy each day that god has giving me this earth. I know the Cancer that i was diagnosed with is extremly rare at my age and its extremely deadly.
I'm also Shy, quite, and have my good days and bad days both emotionally and physically .

:starsandstripes: Served in the U.S Army National Gaurd from 1998 to 2006, Was activated in 2002 and spent a year on active duty for operation Enduring freedom.

:sr4sunglasses: Current Events :Top_Secret:

:sr4sunglasses: 2$hort was born October 2013 "Life is to short" when I was diagnosed with pancreatic adenocarcinoma :stage 2:
:orb: Spent the next year in treatment and wouldn't wish what I went through on my worst enemy.
:orb: My surgery was in April of 2014 :whipple procedure:
:orb: I have been cancer free since April of 2014, but it has a 5 years window were it can return
:orb: I recieved really bad news today. My tumor has returned and faced with the brutal reality of the situation. 3/3/2015 9-12 Months with Current Treatments at the VA... The Dr said its hard to predict and its just and estimate based on statisical data.
:Health: Update 11/20/2015 My Dr. talked me into tring to get into a drug Study. Well if data is right it may give me an extra 4-6 months to live
:Health: 2/20/16 The Va Finally approved payment for the drug study only took 3 months of red tap and I just hope it is not to late.
It's been a little under 3 months with no treatment to hold back my cancer. My biggest fear is the End is now even more closer and I was dangled hope on a string and it was yanked away from me. The Truely sad part is that I haven't even been tested to see if i'm elligable for the study.

Vietnam ‘65 Review
First I love Strategy games and I love historical war games. I'm going to give a quick review and get right to the points. Now I'm getting a start to this review since I only made it through the first tutorial because I played it out to the end which is 45 turns. I was thinking there would be some achievement but there wasn't one I also noticed that there was no progression after the tutorial. So it's not worth playing it tout to the end. this is for all the achievment hunter save some time

Pro's and con's (After playing just the tutorial)
The game really puts you in command of an Area of operation. The down fall is that the Controls will frustrate you. Example Click a Huey send it to a base to refuel well if it still able to move after reaching the base it will remain active. So when you go to click on another unit that Huey will move out of position and it runs out of fuel the next turn it will crash. This applies to all units.

Now there is no economy to worry about, You buy troops with political favor, the more units you have the less favor you carry. Now for every unit or base you kill you gain political favor and support with the locals. every unit you lose, lowers your favor and can slow your progress.

Ok Nothing below was explained or was really light on detail
You have 3 types of bases
Your Command center has four functions
  • Allows you to heal ground troops and provides you the supplies for all troops.
  • Allows Helicopters to refuel.
  • Allows you the buy/create new troops.
  • Allows you to set up artillery
Your fire base (is your 2nd main base)
  • Provides you the supplies for all Infanty and Engineer's.
  • Provides a place for Helicopters to refuel.
  • Provides you a location to set up artillery
Outposts have 2 functions
  • Allows you to set up artillery
  • Allows your Green berets to train Arvn forces.
This caused me to lose more troops during the tutorial then anything.

Supply line management
Planning your distance will greatly help your supply lines, rotate troops off the front lines.
But also your artillary can only be set up at bases and they provide your troops fire support support.

So far its not that bad of a game but there is a good learning curve, while some might get it quicker then others. by all means this shouldn't scare you away from a small little game. It's not fancy in the graphics department, but it really tries to capture the Essence of what it was like for are troops fighting over in Vietnam. You'll have no clue who or where the enemy is an at the beginning of every turn you Intel of potential enemy activity that shows up on the map. Guess what they could be there or not, this bring another depth of realism because your intel could be good or bad, hell you could even be ambushed, hit a mine field in an area you already cleared. Even how the enemy forces fight NVA will always stand and fight while the VC will hit and run, or you just might have a squad or rpg that shoot at your helocopters then disapear. The enemy can pop up anywhere no matter what you control or cleared on the map.

A blessing that I got to know you and chat with you before you were gone..
I only wish we spent more time together but I thank you for all the moments we did share.
Rest in peace, you are being missed by many and you will always be remembered. :lovebubble:

Thinking about you dude.
Elgalad 13 Jun, 2016 @ 6:53pm 
I regret never having gotten to know you in this life, because it's clear that your presence blessed many others. Your courage, both in service to your country and while battling your illness, was likewise an inspiration.

My deepest condolences to 2$hort's friends and family, and godspeed to a fallen hero.

Thats how it has to be. I cant even imagine what will happen with my account when I am gone one day. At least he had time to prepare. Life is short, but thats why we play games where we can live many lives, kind of... :csgostar: :tradingcard: :gordon:
