WSAD

For a time I had fun with tribes and Diablo online, it was time for something new.

EA games came out with Medal of Honor: Allied Assault around 2001, I loved this game. The story line was great in the single player mode, but what i truly enjoyed was the online action, working together as a team in any game type. I figured it was time to look into servers and a clan.

I ran into a these 2 guys, Papa Hemingway and Daddy War$ they had started a clan for parents only called The DaDs Army, I was the 8th member with the tag "maniacal"and 7 years later War$ and I are still hunting people down in multiple games.
I was married now with a baby boy, Nicholas. His 4 on 4 0ff sleep cycle was as good as any for online games and i was playing with a bunch of people who had been there done that. Our numbers swelled and hovered at 75-85 from all over the globe. We even did charity events for St. Jude with EA and Nvida donated prizes. This is about the time I started making maps for the games i play. My first one was called Temple of Anubis, a map set in and around a pyramid and underground tomb. Some servers still run the map, it had over 5,000 downloads- I was pretty proud of that:)
After 2 and a half years of mohaa we slowly migrated over to COD and a few other games after several leagues and ladders my interest was starting to wander to a more modern form of combat. I had briefly played Ghost recon a while back and Wars and I decided to give it a shot. What followed was 2 more years of kick ass fun with a few and a few more games. We had a mod called sniper scout with a nice set of weapons and a ridiculous number of AI targets to snipe. The 45 minuete to an hour+ missions were a riot a few of the DaDs like Iron Ingo and Robthebruse joined in but most of the time it was a two man show. We were still playing with the DaDs but not as often. New games were cranking out monthly.
2004, next on deck was Half Life 2.
