Heh. I never would have thought that SomethingAwful, one of the internet's biggest ****holes, would have come up with anything halfway decent at all.
I actually did laugh at that, it was pretty funny for me.

Some people are like Slinkies.  They aren't really good or even useful for anything but they always manage to put a little smile on your face when you give them enough of a push down the stairs.

That's a bit rash. SA's community puts out some really entertaining stuff - this sort of thing is more or less par for the course.

It does look like another case of "they only bothered to play the first mission", though.

I remember seeing at least one online review of the game where it was immediately apparent that they never got past "Surrender, Belisarius!"

Oh, I think they've played it enough to know how to use FRED. Note the directives list, escort list, target box, etc.
