Default A Plea from a Marine heading to Iraq...

I was an avid SE4 gamer back in the day, in fact, made a mod calls Derek's Mod that enjoyed some small popularity. Now I'm heading back to Iraq for the 3rd time, and I desperately want SE 5 completed before I leave in early June so that I have something to do out there in my off time!

This is semi tongue in cheek request to Aaron to hurry up with SE 5, although I really am heading back to Iraq. It would be rather nice to have something to do with my laptop besides play endless Civ III games...

Thanks
Dave

I don't know what kind of internet connection the armed forces typically offer over there, so this could be impractical, but you could try applying for the beta in a few weeks.

Good luck, and try not to get shot.

I second the good luck wish for you.

If it's not released by June are care packages an option? I'm sure we could IPO you a copy along with some cookies or something.

And a 45 colt with five boxes of ammo would go a long way.

I think he is onto something here guys, and by the way glad to see your still with us. Think of all of the customers Aaron could gain if Dave were able to show off the game? Hours upon hours of stress being relieved by a few moments of SE V game time. You never know, it might just be what the troops need to help make their jobs a lot less stressful.
