DG's Journal: Steel Beasts Pro PE

So the latest thing to burn time - when I'm not working at my day job, or running the DP1 course at the regiment, or looking after my troop at the regiment, or working on my Army Operations Course homework (staffwork, yeehah) or going on exercise, this THIS

Yeah, it's $125, but it's a full gunnery/driving/commanding simulator for a whole bunch of armoured fighting vehicles, using the actual fire control systems. Works just like the real thing, but with less smoke and fumes, diesel in your coffee, and track maintainence.

Tons of fun if your tastes run to blowing shit up.

GUNNER! TANK LASE ON! ON! FIRE! FIRING NOW! TARGET STOP!

I am so glad that I have neither a capable PC nor the money to build one. This game sounds way too interesting for me to resist.
