Must I do everything? You slackers have let the MBT slide almost all the way to the bottom of the first page.
I blame Joe Shaw and Sirreal. Maybe we should force them to pay the VAT on CMBN for all our Goobernationals?
-
Shouldn't you be asking your local post office and customs people how much extra you will have to pay?

"Hey Sugar, Take A Walk On The Wild Side,
Said Hey Honey, Take A Walk On The Wild Side.
And The Colored Girls Go, Doo Dodoo"
you can't say that.

Find one, we'll vote for it.
Here you go, let me google that for you.

Of course they want to use Yoga masters to reduce crime and increase harmony.........
still, they want to get rid of the VAT, so there you go.
I also found something called the "UKIP", didn't have much time to read about that one.
I also read about the "British National Party" that wants to go from an income tax to a consumption tax, taxing what is spent on "non-essential items" which probably would include CMBN.
Other than that, holy cow, you guys have it bad over there.

Here is a solution, cancel your pre-order, see how much extra you will have to pay to your blood sucking governments and then if it is worth it to you, buy it normally. You will have the added benefit of getting to evaluate the game through the postings of everyone that has been playing it.
-
So vote in a government that doesn't charge such ridiculous taxes and fees.

For CM, I normally go with game sounds only, but as a pre-game mood builder (or whenever I play VASL), I like to listen to period music. -Love it.
My usual station is "Rat Patrol Radio" on Live365. It has some period news and PSA clips between the songs. There is a good selection of stations like this. Just search under big band, swing, OTR (old time radio), 30's, 40's, etc.
I also love the old radio shows from the 40's and 50's. There are some great comedy shows from back then and I get a kick out of the sponsor plugs and jingles.

Listening now, very cool

It's not so much that I am talking more about how it went last time.
Buy CM:BO then buy CM:BB then buy CM:AK and you have just about everything covered, if you give up in despair for the PTO.
Then you get CM:SF et'al so You build up a good modern set, annoying that it is not compatible with the earlier stuff.
Then all that goes in the bin and we start back at the same place that CM:BO did just with less stuff.
And I am expecting that I will by Normandy and Modules, Bulge and Modules, whatever is next and modules ........ then throw them all away and get CM3.
It has always irked me a bit that I can have a single program for work (AutoCAD) that lasts for in excess of 20 years and a file from 1990 I can open today with the 2010 version but the games industry is very much "disposable".
Is it impossible to have a base game engine that does all the working bits and have add ons that take us to different theatres?
I would rather have the CM system, realizing that I get hundreds, if not thousands, of hours of game time out of each title, than most disposable games that you pay the same price for and after 10-20 hours (if lucky) of game time, they sit on your shelf collecting dust.
Wow, that was a really run on sentence.
I can think of 5-8 games I have bought in the last 5 years that I got less than 10 hours of play time out of before getting bored with them.

So let's see... the glorious MBT (Damn the potatoes! Full speed ahead!) is being represented by Peng, Elvis and MrSpkr.
Uh huh.
Do you guys have a name for yourselves? Like maybe "The Banjo Brigade", or "Losers with Love Handles"?
Did BFC want to run some bench tests to see what would happen if the only tactical expertise the player had, was to hit GO endlessly?
And chimps were too highly evolved?
I too am a Beta Tester, you shall see my name in the new manual. I don't really need to say anything more do I?

I am currently relying on Mechwarrior Living Legends to take the edge off the waiting. Can be considered practice too, in a way. If you squint at it just right, a Clan Madcat is KINDA like a Panther, with particle cannons instead of a KwK
Have you tried the free version of MW mercenaries?
-
This bebop (note that it is not bolded) holds some pretty wicked knowledge of our inner secrets, perhaps it should challenge someone and a member in good standing (down SturmSebber down) could take it to Serf?

I plan to break bread with both Peng and the Nidan1 monster when I invade the continental US in June. I plan to break bread, break wind, then march to the White House and take my rightful place as Lord OberKommando of the 4th Reich of Amerikka...there will be much rejoicing in the streets...or you will pay...
Dare you venture into the Midwest? To the true Holy Land, Wisconsin? If so, I shall show you mall food courts to make your soul weep!!!!!!
And my kids want to hear an Australian accent.
Plus, I am Range Master for my Police Department and I could probably get you some full auto trigger time on an M-14.
-
This is unacceptable lads, unacceptable.
The Peng Challenge Thread has been the one constant throughout the development of all the incarnations of the Combat Mission franchise and yet I see it third from the bottom of page one.
UNACCEPTABLE!
It's just a damned good thing I'm here now to keep an eye on things. I wonder, is Boo Radley good for anything, anything at all?
Joe
Does the Battlefront Forum have a spittoon?
-
That mall food court wasn't my choice buster, as I recall your little playgroup wasn't allowed outside of the mall incase the other kids beat you up.
It wasn't hard to spot your little friends either, just had to look for the groups of nervous looking guys with buzz cuts. I shoulda yelled "FIRE IN THE HOLE" to see you all hit the deck...that would have been funny.
Of course they were nervous and kept their hands on their wallets, they heard there was an Australian in the area....
-
We must get together.....email me your itinerary.
(so I can set up the proper kill box)
Make sure you take him to a mall food court to eat, he likes that...

My wife and I are thinking of getting our 7 year old daughter into soccer, but she wants to try softball again, even though she got hit in the face with a ball last year...

Will do Seanachai, we will make sure that only us old timers can make boring shyte jokes.

Tank in the picture may not be the main tank in the film, which is supposed to be a King Tiger. The 88 is supposedto represent the caliber of the main gun. In the interview, it is stated that there are Tiger 1's, Panzer IV's, and the King Tiger in the film.

Noob spelled backwards is Boon......

yup that is number 1 in my etc
Henry Fonda,
Battle of the Bulge,
Yeah, I just threw up a little in the back of my mouth...

Seriously? A movie about a monster vs a panzer crew!? Where, what's it called? I demand information

Dog Soldiers

True, true ... I was obviously upset with the position of the thread on the board and wasn't thinking clearly ... although it wasn't a complete loss, in that moment I could actually understand how horrifying it must be to be Michael.
Joe
If only you knew how truly horrifying it was to read your posts, Joe You would fade into the obscurity we all truly deserve of you.

Abdul is not amused
Dog Soldiers was awesome.

I was kind of hoping he was like the devil, say his name and he appears. I want to make the Swede whine some more about my gamey force picks as I grind his troops into dust.
