COOL! I for one and really glad to hear about this. I really like the tabletop version. For those who don't know anything about it there's some info here: Rise of the Luftwaffe Eighth Air Force Corsairs & Hellcats Zero! Looks like y'all are getting more of my money!

Sure ignore my post, see if I care! Now where is that NyQuil? Cardinal Fang </font>

Sure ignore my post, see if I care! Now where is that NyQuil? Cardinal Fang

Wooo HOO!!! Sometimes it pays to be sick! I've pre-ordered and preparing to download the demo! Sadly, thanks to Nyquil I gave the wrong address but I did email to give the correct one. Fortunately even if it goes to the wrong address it's still coming to the right building and the front desk folk all know me. Cardinal Fang

You mean they aren't putting Girl Scouts in the cookies? Why that's false advertising isn't it? Cardinal Fang Have Comfy Chair. Will Travel.

John D Salt, That's what I thought it might be. Well..the "thickness of armour "seen" by an armour-piercing round arriving roughly horizontally." part anyway. I assume the variation in thickness for the hull front then means that the hull front has various degrees of slope. You know if they'd mentioned that cosines would be useful in wargaming back when I was learning about them I would've paid more attention! Now where is that old math book? Thanks for the answer Mr. Sa.....errr I mean: Thanks for the answer John D Salt! Cardinal Fang Have Comfy Chair. Will Travel.

A self-serving *BUMP*

I have a question about how aromor thickness is determined. I was reading Ian Hogg's "The American Arsenal" and I noticed that in many cases for armor thickness there were two listings. One for "Actual" and one for "Basis". For example for the M4 Sherman it lists for the Hull, Front: Actual-2.5" Basis-2"-4" and for Turret,Front: Actual-3" Basis-3.75". Why the difference? Does it have something to do with the slope? If so why the range of numbers for the hull front? I thought the slope was constant. I've seen the term 'armor basis" before but always assumed they just meant thickness. That should teach me to assume! Cardinal Fang Nobody Expects The Spanish Inquisition!

Sounds very interesting! Please send me a copy as well. Email address is in my profile. Thanks! Cardinal Fang Is Just Cardinal Fang

George-III, I saw that post but there are a couple of differences that I should've made clear. In Thomas Goetz's case he said that the sounds continue and made no mention of a vehicle sound "stuttering". Also he mentions that he can still move his mouse cursor whereas in my case everything locks up. I've also played many games all the way through with no problem whatsoever. I don't think that temperature is a problem since I always keep my apartment cool (or freezing if you ask my girlfriend ) and the computer has two cooling fans in addition to the power supply fan. Perhaps I should go ahead and download one of those programs that tells you how hot your computer is running though. Thanks for taking the time to help! Have Comfy Chair. Will Travel.

Howdy, I am one of those that had trouble installing so perhaps that has something to do with my problem. I have the files that didn't load and everything seemed to be running all right until recently when I've had a couple of battles that just froze. Both times I've been clicking on a tank. What happens is the tank engine noise 'sticks' and starts repeating. The computer locks up including the keyboard. I have to hit the restart button to get it going. It doesn't happen in every game just the two so far. I know that makes it much harder to troubleshoot. Here's my system specs: Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-7VRX VIA KT333 CPU: AMD Athlon XP 2000 Memory: 256MB Samsung PC-2700 DDRAM Video: Leadtek GeForce 4 MX-440 Audio: Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 Hard Drive: 80GB IBM 7200RPM DVD/CD: Pioneer 16X DVD 117 OS: Windows XP Home Edition The computer is almost brand-spanking new. I bought it from ABS in August. I am currently downloading the latest drivers for the sound card although to be honest I'm not sure what the current version of driver I have. Thanks for any light anyone could shed on this. Cardinal Fang Nobody Expects The Spanish Inquisition [ October 06, 2002, 07:37 PM: Message edited by: Cardinal Fang ]

Same thing here. I didn't notice it before. Perhaps this is the culprit? Have Comfy Chair. Will Travel.

<thump! thump! thump!> Add another one to the list of those experiencing difficulty installing CMBB. <thump! thump! thump!> My system: Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-7VRX VIA KT333 CPU: AMD Athlon XP 2000 Memory: 256MB Samsung PC-2700 DDRAM Video: Leadtek GeForce 4 MX-440 Hard Drive: 80GB IBM 7200RPM DVD/CD: Pioneer 16X DVD 117 OS: Windows XP Home Edition <thump! thump! thump!> The computer is brand-spanking new. I bought it from ABS last month. <thump! thump! thump!> The first time I tried to install I received a CRC error. The second time I received something about unable to read I/O device or somesuch. Both attempts failed with a WAV file although I don't think it was the same file. <thump! thump! thump!> I tried copying the install to the hard drive and received a CRC error near the end. I knew I was in trouble when the "time remaining" went from 10 seconds to 15 then down to 10 then back to 15 then down to 10 where it stayed until the error message popped up. I could hear the drive change speeds when the first countdown change occured. <thump! thump! thump!> First install: BMP folder: 782MB 5,847 files WAV folder: 378MB 2,260 files Second install: BMP folder: 782MB 5,847 files WAV folder: 377MB 2,243 files In both cases the only other folder in the directory is titled OpenPlay Modules Please Please Please Please help. <thump! thump! thump!> Oh....the thumping? That would be me bouncing my head off of the table. <thump! thump! thump!> Damn hard to type doing that you know. Cardinal Fang Nobody Expects The Spanish Inquisition!!!
