Found a wounded American (he said he was a boy so he must've been young) in a barn, put a single finger up to his lips to direct the kid to be silent and then covered him (and any traces of blood) with hay.
The second was when he ditched his uniform in '45 and took off.
Well, not all are as awesome or fortunate.Quote:

I don't think he liked being around officers all the time :shrug: but he did like driving. And the fact he wasn't constantly killing people or being shot at.Quote:

Only if they knew it was partly them :wacko:Quote:

Back then things were probably a little more complicated too. He was a Pole, and therefore racially lower down on the ladder.Quote:

Longsword start is actually really good. I learned that I need to stop running back to base all the time. I can get 2K just staying in lane and killing creeps. Between that and hitting the jungle, there's no reason for me to spend so much time flying back to base.
I'm finally starting to really understand more of this game.
It's the best start right now, I've always used it.Quote:

And at this same time Longsword went down in price, used to cost 400 gold, now just 360 gold without losing any stats, so you can get an extra health pot now.Quote:
