Re: Campaign - Operation: Freedom Calling #2
All we know is that Iran started this craze over oil around the same time construction started happening and something tells us they are not making pistachios. Also the building at WP 4 is a Pistachio Plant feel free to handle that if you have enough munitions. They were making pistachios! :o
