Along the same lines; I am using a DVD-case. Is there any front and back cover for that out there?

Thanks for the answers. Yes I have been around for a long time - I say in what area I feelt as a newbie. It is mostly the mod-thing. As to CM-games - I had my share of defeats!

Thanks This is the best, fast, and most friendly board I have ever encountered. I will look into the links. Kind regards Morten Lundsteen Copenhagen - Denmark

Hi there How do I get about getting the most feel about the hights in CM - without making the whole ting looking awful. I.e where and what mods to get, I want to be able to "feel" the elevations at a glance, whithout loosing the realistic "touch" - if posible. Ohh - and anybody for a Pbem - one turn a day - nothing faster due to work, family and so on. Kind regards Morten Lundsteen Copenhagen - Denmark

hello again Mord That looks a lot like the one I'm looking for but, as the spoiled child I was many years ago , I'm not sure. This one has only summer tiles - I recall the mod as being the whole ting - I have been wrong before - though! Any way thanks

Hi and thanks Mord But it do not seem to be it. The reason I mentioned Glass in the subject was that the mod made CM look like is was played on glass-plates - not pretty in the least - but playable on a very low spec PC.

Thanks Raze It is the one I am looking for, but still no luck on the search, using "laptop" as search-word.

Hi there Some time ago somebody wrote about a very low res mod, primaerly to use on very low-end PC's Now I did a search, but it did not turn up anything, ( or maybe search does not work presently?). Anyway - could some kind person ( of wich there are many on this forum, I come to know) please direckt me to the rigth spot for a DL. Thanks in advance Morten Lundsteen

I have been playing wargames both board and PC games, in 20 years and I have lost about 75% of them! Well I am not bragging about it - but there it is. If I was in this, to win I would have stopped long ago. The fun of this hobby, be it ASL/other wargames or PbEM wargaming, is to find people who you like to play a game with (can one say that with out it sounds the wrong way?) that you can thrust mailing their turn and not quiting! I have played a fair number of games in Talonsofts ACW battle series for some years now with the same guy ( and I wrote him " try CM it's one hell of a wargame - You know what? we stopped playing ACW because he liked this game so much) Any way if he would have instited to play ACW - I would have! The importent thing here is not winning (thu it IS nice) but if one find a person you can relate to somehow or another it is a victory in itself. I like this game (CM that is:)) because it makes you "smell the battle field" just like ASL did, to me, back in the early '80'es. I say "allways remember this is a game - and it just for fun and not real life-luckily BTW - I am game for just one more PbEM battle! Being a family man with just that much time left for gaming, I can only play tree or four games at at time. Mail me! Kind regards Morten Lundsteen Copenhagen - Denmark

Hi CS Thanks for the answer, I have mailed you regarding PBEM. Kind regards Morten Lundsteen Copenhagen - Denmark

Hi there I had sworn I would not post this kind of email "I would wait patiencently and enjoy The Game when it arrived - hell I am a grown-up I tried waiting for good things before" so I said a week ago. But - but I am getting desperate now - one more weekend without the royal danish post comming by with a parcel for me. Well - is it just me of all the persons in Denmark who have (pre-)ordered the game who is waiting still? Kind regards Morten Lundsteen Copenhagen - Denmark [This message has been edited by Morten (edited 07-01-2000).]

The site looks great, promtly bookmarked! Thank you. kind regards Morten Lundsteen Copenhagen - Denmark (still waiting for The Game btw)

Hi there May this is a stupid q - but where do you upload the scenarios to. In other words; where do I go to look for scenarios. (When I recive the game - that is)(soon please soon) Kind regards Morten Lundsteen Copenhagen - Denmark

Sorry!!? Kind regards Morten Copenhagen - Denmark

Hi there I have been lurking in this forum for some time now ( I have only made a few posts), but I want to say I enjoy it here. Just a few words about myself: 41 years old. have been playing wargames for about 20 years, mostly ASL. I am the proud cofounder of no less that 2 wargaming clubs here in Copenhagen playing mostly board-wargames (read ASL), both of which still exits. After I got kids, two sons the first some five years ago, I have not been attenting my clubs much. In the last couple of years my wargaming have been on the PC, either against the system or against Email opponents - it have been and is great fun. BUT there is one thing missing, and now I come the point. I have been missing a chance to encounter people with the same interest as me, namely war in general and 2nd WW in particulal, people that know that war is nothing to wish for, but knows the difference between a sherman and a panther. People that reads books (!) on their favourite subjeckt, and has the abiilty to present their knowledge on the spot. This, and the eagerness to promote a good game, reminds me of the best times in the clubs. I have just have had a resent convent (by me) beat me in a PbEm game - but I still want more (victories, please) - so look out - when THE GAME comes out - I am going to play this game by Email for a long time! Kind regards Morten Copenhagen - Denmark

Thank you for the fast reply. That was what I wanted to hear! Kind regards Morten Lundsteen Copenhagen - Denmark

Hi all I just wondered how the shipping will be when the time comes. Please make it a possibility to order by ordinary mail. The reason I am asking is that the last time I ordered a game from the US (I live in Denmark)the game was delivered by UPS as an express-package - it was the only possibility offeredby the game-co. UPS garranties that the package will be delivered within one or to days - barring costums-protocol. Well - in my case it took almost two weeks!! And here tree mounths later I am still corresponding with UPS Denmark to get some kind of rebate because of the belated delivery.(Which they say they will on their hoempage) Also UPS-Denmark add a huge extra fee for bringing the game through custoums. This fee alone adds one third to the final price. The price in Denmark will be high enough due to costums. Our "normal" mail seems to consiter it a normal service to take mail to costums. Don't get me wrong - I want the game as fast as possible - but I can wait one or two more weeks if I do not have to hassel with the unprofessonel UPS - Denmark Kind regards Morten Lundsteen Copenhagen - Denmark

Thanks for all replies so far But now I am curious: What ASL scenario was the one converted, and what tweaks was used? Kind regards Morten Lundsteen Copenhagen - Denmark

Great idea. Scenarios, no matter how one makes them, allways benefits from beeing looked at by as many people as possible. Kind regards Morten Lundsteen Copenhagen - Denmark

Hi all One thing I am looking forward to in CM, is the oppertunety to play my old ASL scenarios in a 3d format, and I know for sure that I will be looking though my scenarios to find some that will be suitable, with regards to weapons, troop types terain etc.. I wondered if thougths have been made by members of this learned forum, as to some "standards". F.ex. How to deal with a squad in ASL (4-6-7) with a heavy MG (7-16). Should this, in CM, be made into a regular half-squad and MG-crew? I do realise, off course, that CM is a different game than ASL and that scenaios can, and most proberly will, be very unbalanced if taken over directly. My point is however that when there are hundreds of, more or less, historical settings allready made, it would be a waste to "start from scrath". Kind regards Morten Lundsteen Copenhagen - Denmark

On my little LAN at home, some fellows and myself have enjoyed SM's Gettysburg as teams very much, for two players I think it more fun than playing against each other -actualy. So - I would like to see an option for teamplay. ------------------ Med venlig hilsen/ Kind regards Morten Lundsteen
