  1. That is my issue, yes. I've got to turn 20 on my current game and it's not started working so I'm a bit stumped. I can play through but it'd be nice if it worked
  2. Hi all - long time no see. I was wondering if I could ask for some h2hh help here? I've started a game and my opponent shared a Dropbox folder. I can access it but h2hh doesn't accept the folder. My install looks like this: My Dropbox is in F:\Dropbox\Dropbox with my game folder being F:\Dropbox\Dropbox\G&A although the game itself is "Wittmann's Demise" (although from the way I've been playing, looks like he's going to make it this time). I try to set my game to the correct folder (F:\Dropbox\Dropbox\G&A) from this However h2hh refuses If I try and game chat it says "That game doesn't have a dropbox, so no chat!" Does anyone know why, and what I can do to sort it - it seems a great tool, cheers GaJ.
  3. Love the ciggies and beer. A better time, I think.
  4. Yeah that's what it reminded me of too.
  5. As Jason says, use them for supporting fire. They are your base of fire, your unbroken your manoeuvre element.
  6. I felt exactly the same when I saw it for the first time. I was 11. Nothing in the intervening time has changed for me.
  7. CM is a game about combined arms. There weren't much of any on that front really. If you want to play it, make the Commonwealth forces Japanese - strip out the mortars, the Fireflies, the rapid artillery, the Bren Carriers...the airforce, the 6pdrs the Crocodile, the Vickers...anything other than the Lee-Enfield really. Ratchet the fanaticism up to 11 and you're ready to rock.
  8. And the Chinese chastised them within 12 hours. This is something of a lightening strike in Chinese diplomacy terms, they'd usually take around a week to do anything.
  9. The airframe looks a good shape, which is a good 30% of how a modern fighter will perform. The engine will be an unremarkable Soviet design from the 80s, the training to use it limited and the avionics on the level of a Sabre. Any competent airforce would treat them as a speedbump. But still - better than what they have probably, and good for morale. You could almost imagine the design bureau's brief being "Make it look like Thunderbirds".
  10. I reckon all this is due to The Dumbest Idea In The World: Maximizing Shareholder Value
  11. Confusing read though, seems to repeat itself a few times.
  12. It wouldn't exclude the air though Michael. Be an incredible thermal insulator though. There's a material Aerogel which was being included in boots. Apparently the test ones - so I've heard - were supposed to be "too warm" by the mountain climbers who had them. {edit} Looking further apparently they're already in production. Aspen Aerogels
  13. He missed that you were talking about the TV reconstruction. Easy enough to do with your tangled prose.
  14. That's interesting John. I knew of it but not the detail - thanks.
  15. Nice to see you anyway, we'll see what this new engine malarky is about.
  16. Great. Sam and I are married as of August - you know, 11 years, two kids a dog and a house it was probably time. Been through a couple of jobs - enjoying this one I started a month ago, it's more front-end consultancy plus I get commission. I don't really play CM any more but I drop in the forums occasionally. How's life treating you?
  17. See where the bombs fell. London only - other cities miraculously unharmed.
  18. I've always thought that the SMLE had a decent roughly the same f/p over a minute as an M1 due to the magazine being 2 rounds larger and easier to change. Over 5 - 10 secs the M1 wins but for mad minute I thought they were the same if not very similar?
