Favorite Scenario Titles

RE: Favorite Scenario Titles
Considering EFII only, some titles seem to indicate that only one side has any chance for a victory:

"Knife at the Throat" implies that one side is the knife and the other is the throat; guess which one I would pick.

"Tightening the Noose at Izyum" once again the choice between being the throat or the rope.

"Impending Doom" seems to indicate that one particular side is in a world of doo-doo.

"Mopping Up" sound like an exercise in futility for one side.

"First and Last Stand" indicates an inexperienced force "First" not performing very well "Last" in a defensive position.

Other scenario names make me think of things other than war:

"State Farm 79" always makes me want to compare insurance rates.

"Popov's Doom" brings to mind my last hang over.

"Dancing in the Mist" is like "Singing in the Rain" and I always imagined there was no death and destruction associated with this scenario.

"Piercing the Bulge" make me think of having sex with a pregnant woman.

If I ever create a scenario for testing, I intend to name it in such a manner as to leave no doubt to which side has the advantage:

"The Total and Complete Destruction of the Russia Army" or "Panther's are Blown to Hell".

Give a man fire and he'll be warm for a day.
Light a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
