The details of my life are quite inconsequential....Very well, where to begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low-grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a 15-year-old prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize; he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds-pretty standard really. At the age of twelve I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum....breathtaking-I suggest you try it.

Caution...Elvis is defending the Captain here.
I think the Capt. was asking 1 legit thing here and altought I have picked on him before I don't believe it is as warranted here as some other posts by the little hammerhead.
Point 1. I beleive that the Capt. thinks (as I do) that the manual is delaying release as much as the fine tuning of the the game itself and he felt if he could fish around for an answer to how the manual is coming along he would get a better idea on the status of the game itself. If this is true Capt. nice try pal.
Point 2. There was a lenghty discussion some time ago about what types of things were people would like to see in the manual. On this point the Capt. did not make a silly post. It would be interesting to hear which of the things from the old post made it in and which didn't. Not unreasonable for him to ask.
If you want to pick on the Capt about this post then pick on him for his cheap attempt to get a status on the game through a thinly veiled question about the manual.
Wow,this was a much longer post than I thought it would be.

Colin-I was going to mention your site when I posted this because I had read the AAR for you and Peng but I didn't want to blow any FOW. However after rereading and thinking about it I don't think it really matters. Pengs AAR are very funny by way. I have gotten a big kick out of them. I hope you haven't read them yet though.
-
Something the little pest Peng has been doing lately is using MASSIVE amounts of smoke. He is the only one I have played that has employed this tactic. It has been VERY effective. I was even forced to surrender to that playground strafer last night. Is anyone else using tons and tons of smoke? It seems to work extremly well when on the attack and I am thinking of putting it in my bag of tricks and calling it mine.

If they are Mikeman they won't be able to post to your topic.

I think I was misunderstood. I understand that in a "battle" the clearing of a field is out. But in a multi-battle "operation" can they be cleared during the "down time between battles". If it still not within the scope of the game that is fine. I'm just asking.
-
Matt-I LOVE the work you guys are doing at CMHQ so don't take the following comment the wrong way.
Foofighter-That front page looks GREAT!!!!
Colin-I keep waiting for more Peng AAR updates on you site. Is it because he is spanking you as bad as I am spankin SS
-
You would think that the time an operation covers would allow for the clearing of minefileds. But I have no idea how big these minefields might be. Are they so small that once you have cleared out an area they only are a little bit of a pain to get around, like a pond or something. Or will they cover large areas and really make it affect you entry of units? But please do NOTHING that would delay the game because some lame brain (ME).
Thanks for the quick reply.

Steve,
I understand about not clearing minefields in a battle but how about in an operation? Where it might span a day or two. Would you be bringing in reinforocements through minefields that the front line has already gone past?
-
SS you have been hiding. While you taunt the poor helpless sorryass Peng you have yet to send me your email. I will take this to mean you once again surrender. I am willing to discuss the terms of your surrender. Expect no mercy.
-
One makes their on luck SS. By being in a postion to exploit situations. You really have to stop your complaining everytime I pound you. It makes you look bad man. I'm only thinking of your reputation.
-
That little whinny bitch SS just took out one of my STUGs because he got got off two shots to my one shot. It was VERY VERY VERY cool. We both got off our 1st shots at the same time and BOTH bounced of the armor (beyond cool to watch, I wish I had saved it to post somewhere). Then his Sherman got off a 2nd shot before my STUG did and BOOM. Blowed it up real good.
Next week on celebrity blow up I'm gonna have SS begging for his life and not grant him his wish.
-
Just bustin your ovaries Von. As SS is VERY fond of saying "The easiest scenerio to win is the Allies in Reisberg"
-
Scurrying for new playing partners boys? You are both getting spanked pretty good by me right. I can't say I can blame ya for looking for easier prey. Well you found it
-
Same as Bobb. Found it through Avalon Hill when it was still CSL.Spent most of my time as a lurker because other people seemed to have much more to contribute (anyone who as seen any of my posts will agree I was right)
-
Wretches like you two come along only once or twice in a lifetime. When the dope really hits the fans with the final release of the game and mealy mouthed degenerates like you are exposed as the frauds that you really are you will no longer be able to hide behind the "the demo doesn't score properly, you really didn't win as big as you think you did" and "You know exactly where my units are coming in and when I get my reinforcements". The truth will be out there for all to see. Shame. Shame on both of you.
Swines.

While the crazied Peng is correct that he beat me up pretty good in Chance Encounter it must be noted that I have been the bus driver (I take him to school often) in so many consecutive games that I felt it was time I threw him a bone. SS on the other hand is a whole different kind of animal. He claims his imminent defeat is because of a unbalanced scenerio. For this type of slander you shall pay.

Stevo ...welcome..you set up you units..then click on the big "GO" button on the screen..you the plot your units movements/tagets ect..the click "GO" again..you will then watch the "Movie" (probably many times from many angles) and click "done" then do it all again..couldn't be easier.

You beat me to the punch Tom.

Moon- I am with Tupac ..There are different shades of green and teal and black not being blocked. And half red half black lines that are clearly marked blocked. But the question is a good one. What do the different colored lines mean? I sometimes see two different shades of green which one is the better LOS/target?
