        One similarity is that both countries are too proud to accept the Americans as liberators. They rather shoot back than become invaded. I think the guerilla attacks will make it impossible/very painful for the coalition to occupy Iraq.

              Section 13, wasn't it?
              No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

                This, however, is true of most countries. I would wait in judgement of the Iraqis, though, as it was claimed by an Iraqi in Umm Qassar that Hussein's agents were still in the city, which is why they had a pro-Hussein rally just before the food started getting passed out. If true, the Iraqis may be afraid that the Americans will abandon them yet again (we've done it twice now--1976 and 1991) and don't want to risk angering Hussein until he's gone for sure.

                  There is no Section 13.

                        True. I don't know anyplace that sells the game. However, I'm doing something almost as geeky by playing Heroclix.

                          You're right, it's Section 31. *insert ominous thunder here*

                            Heroclix?

                            Bah!

                            If I wanted to play on a grid, I'd play chess!

                            It's MageKnight or MechWarrior for ME.

                            ...unfortunately, my brother is on a Heroclix kick for the time being, so I'm...kinda stuck...

                              You surely meant Battletech.

                                Why? You can play him using either MageKnight or MechWarrior. I've played against both using my figures.
