  1. also turn of Ambiant sounds and just have normal sound. This really helps
  2. IMHO the Review at CDMag seems rushed and poorly written, though the 5!!! Stars are apreciated. The Gamespot review is very well written and gives a staggering 9.1
  3. More bugs... The british tank destroyer Archer is backwards. It starts set-up backwards. When ordered to move, fast, or hunt. It goes backwards. In reverse it goes forward. Must be a Polish tank
  4. I have done my duty, now do yours. GET OVER THERE AND VOTE!!!!!!!
  5. More about CM on GoneGold *Speaking of Values, I have been asked by many readers to get a deal on Combat Mission, a New Release that is an on-line only purchase at $45. As many of you know, I live by the saying... "It can't hurt to ask. ". While I do not know anyone within the company, I can certainly ask if they would offer a discount to Gone Gold readers. The worst they'll say is "No.". No big deal. I wouldn't get your hopes up on this one. It's an incredible long shot. I suspect they would be quicker to work with a site that focuses on war games but perhaps they want to reach out to the novice war gamer. I know that if they work with Gone Gold on a sale, it won't be for awhile because I received an e-mail letting me know that they have already SOLD OUT of the first printing! I'm not sure how long it will take to burn the games and start shipping again. There are still some games that are released at this price level, so it's not unheard of. I do want you to know, while 45 bucks sounds a bit steep, the game is worth every penny. I'll be sure to let you know how I made out with them when I hear back. I haven't sent out the request yet(It may not hurt to ask, but it takes a bit to get the nerve up. ;D) but should later today or tomorrow. I won't be making a post if the answer is "No" so if you don't hear anything by next Monday, you can safely assume there won't be any Gone Gold specials on this game
  6. A Jeep WITH a MG is CHEAPER;than one without! HUH?!?!
  7. Well I hate to Brag but....... I have had the Full game since Monday. I live in Phoenix near where the 51 and the 202 meet. I have already sent Akdiorat a set-up file for Aachen scenario.

  12. This is so Funny. I have really gotten a good laugh This Sabot guy go fishing with really weak bait and manages to pull up so serious whoopers.
  13. The very first time I played VOT it was with full Fog, even forces , without reading any spoilers. I played as US as recommened. It was a total cake walk I did not even use my 60mm Moters. I achieved Total victory only losing one tank. A Germans it was much harder, I barely achieved a minor victory.
  14. It requires three emails to comlplet a turn so. DarT1a DarT1b DarT1c DarT2b ect. it works great or start with file1 and increase bye one with each email.
  15. Attack of the Killer Smilies [This message has been edited by Darstand (edited 06-10-2000).]
  16. 2-4 times a day every day. Though I did have a rest period of 5 weeks when I did not check the forum at all. The withdrawl pains were hell. Attack of the killer smilies
  17. Yes it could be the scenerios and operations discussion forum attack of the killer smilies
  18. The cool thing about CM Germanboy is that you can DYO battle. So whip an all infantry battle and have fun. Or If you want to play one blind against someone else wait for me to whip one up for you. I have this idea for a big infantry battle in a city with several companies on each side. No offboard arty, morters only, and NO TANKS or other vehicals. If anyone interested email me directly.
  19. Goto Homestead.com Its one of those free website/homepage places. It has a good easy to use interface. And best of all its free
  20. Thank you Madmatt. You have solved my one and only complaint about CM... the lack of color. Now I await the arrive of CM with even greater anticipation (as if that is possible) :> :+) ;( :} O look attack of the killer smilies
  21. WOOOOOHOOOOO The pre-order is in. I am looking for an opponet who is interested in playing CE as Allies, I'll take jerry's. I want someone how can trade at least one email a day.
  22. Will people with the Mod be able to play people without the Mod????? Or to restate the question are the two versions compatible or incompatible with each other???? It would kinda suck for to different incompatiable versions of CM to be out.
  23. "Yeah, those grey paint jobs on the German stuff are pretty lame" I guess most people (including me)have trouble with the markings of the Germans emblazoned on anything. But it would be nice if the atleast put a camo job on it.
  24. Three StugIII crest a hill. Behold what do they see 4 Shermans. The three Stugs fire nearly at the same time. 3 Shermans die. The 4 rth shortly there after. One Stug lost to gun damage. War is heck. I have never read a a tactical book in fact this is my first war game. And except for the very first game of CM I played. I have never lost to the computer. Now people on the other hand. Well I am 3 outa 5. I wish people would quit complaining about minor details like mustashes and black uniforms. Hmmm to stop the rambling post.
