Interesting Sylvano ... the website works fine from here.
At 7:15 am there were eight players logged in (including
three guest log-ins one of which myself) and the website
offers two multi-player, and six single-player, war games
with a very prominent link for joining the Defence Forces:

Unfortunately my attempts to check
out the Department of Defence flash
splashed games site led to a
"Could Not Connect" message.
This is accompanied by an enigmatic
message, in caps, "WE NEED MORE SCREEN!"
Is my monitor inadequate, or is that a
DoD gamer mantra?

I'll have to check 'em out later. It may
be too early for the server...
Original article that bounced me there,
http://www.computerworld.com.au/index.php/id;1988891423;fp;16;fpid;0
It makes me wonder if there ought to
be accompanying warning images and
messages on the site as one sees on
cigarette packets, showing appropriately
maimed limbs, and what not...
