Man I just finished watching Saving Private Ryan. First time I watched it since I started playing MOHAA. Was MOHAA based on that movie? I know it was the same war and all but the background of the battle scenes are eeriely similar to the MOHAA single player game. Coincidence?
Just wondering. --------------------  "Difficulties come and they pass, but it is a shame that sometimes these difficulties must pass like diarrhea" |

QUOTE The Russian (Zeitsev?) ended up shooting the German through his own scope. He saw the flash of glass, aimed for it and BAM! shot him right through his own scope. Now that is friggan impressive. Maybe they didn't put it in because Saving Private Ryan used that scene and they didn't want to duplicate. This is from Internet Movie Database (imdb.com)--adding on to what ghost said The idea of a sniper putting a bullet through another sniper's scope came from the true story of a Marine sniper in Vietnam called Carlos Hathcock, who killed a Vietcong sniper who was stalking him by putting a bullet through the sniper's scope.
