aileron Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 (edited) Third photo down from the cover photo (Page 11)... What does it say??? BTW... I doubt this is Safe For Work.

WolfK33 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Lead a lot - Lead less - even less - aim straight at it! What the hunter (fighter) does like best is the position in which the lead disappears. In German leading shots means something like "to hold in front", so that makes the pun clearer, as the lady is holding the towel in front of her. So, better would be: Hold a lot in front - hold less in front .... and so on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mtnbiker1998 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 (edited) Huh... a very interesting method of teaching... Quite effective too, I'd imagine.

Boris Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Huh... a very interesting method of teaching... Quite effective too, I'd imagine. I am reeeeeallly good at leading targets now. I'd love to hear what the rest of it says.. Y'know, for educational reasons Most of this stuff is difficult to translate as it's done in rhymes and puns are used that make no sense in english. First Page: "If you play with her buttons (trigger), she'll bang*. With the ladies it's the same." *Though note that bang here is probably referring to the fact that you'll get slapped, not laid. Second page: "If a fortress starts to smoke, don't dream of your victory, keep shooting! Many have regretted celebrating too early." You know the third page. Fourth page: "None other than the hunter, feels the fight and victory so strongly. This makes us happy, proud and content. To hunting a - Horrido!" Fifth page: "Resi (the girl) is easily conquered, (but) don't bend/break the revi (gunsight)." I know it all sounds clunky, but it's all done for the sake of having the poems rhyme.
