@Doctor Jest: The issue is that the conflict materials buy guns, ammunition, and artillery for these military groups.

@maltesh: This. I don't understand why other people are overlooking this option.

@EnigmaNemesis: I think that is unfortunately the point.

@wr3ckl3sson3: And I doubt their asking price would be too much.

Other (cheapest) option:

@kingkellogg: Chances are he played that much because he couldn't get either in the first place.

@Jezuz: Your loss. It is only on insane difficulty that this happens. You could play on Hard. It isn't mandatory.

@The_Duck: I feel the same way. I think it is a bit of the "getting there second" mentality. Everyone was amazed by the visuals and 3D of Avatar, and was willing to overlook its very painful and obvious story issues. And there were many, many story issues.

@MrNose - FOR THE CHICKEN!!!: You basically summed up my reasoning for it being distasteful.

@John-Hamptonshire: Definitely agree here. As I said in a later post, I don't think and "eye for an eye" is a great solution. I hope in many ways this is made for just entertainment and not for someone to actually feel better about history.

@orijimi: That's an extremely different situation. I'm not trying to defend either side here, because they are both guilty of doing horrible things.

@John-Hamptonshire: I just re-read my comment and realized I went down a totally weird route that I didn't mean to go down.

@John-Hamptonshire: The same reason people liked Inglorious Basterds (myself included).

@Interstella5555: Based off some of that footage, the game looks pretty close to being complete in some aspects.
