The book indicates that you might have to disable your firewall. TCP port 7023 must be opened. Don't know how to open it with Norton. I use Zone alarm. Bob

Try Villers-Bocage in CMBO

Excellent book for the price. CMBB players will enjoy the guide very much. Delivery time was scary! Like four days. I live in Birmingham, Al. More typos in the book than I have seen before in other strat guides but manageable. It is just fun reading the book and putzing around with the units. All said I am extremely glad to have ordered the book and hope that Mark will do another one of these days when another CM game comes out.

Bellsouth DSK here. Get speeds up 1000 KBS Tonight I am getting 350 KBS for some reason. Real fast though. Great for CMMOS and MODs

Gordon, I installed 4.1 and added the rulesets and mods. When I tried to switch to the new Reichstadt mod I got the message " T progress Bar out of range " Can you tell me what this means?

This tread got me thinking about some old games so I pulled out War In Russia (Grigsby's). Haven't looked at it in years. I installed it and started going through the book to help me play and got hooked all over again. Help!! Don't have time for CMBB and this too!

Got the CMMOS 4.0 and followed all directions for the rulesets and then got almost all the current mods. However the Pig Pen mods are not showing up in the proper tab. The Russian mods show up OK. Anyone else noticed this. May have done something wrong but don't think so.

After having my fanny waxed in a few scenarios it is nice to see that others have had their heads handed to them by the AI. Good thing I didn't really command troops in battle. I'm sure they would have fragged me rather quickly.

bodman thanks for the tip. I did look up alienware and they have a great game machine no doubt. think i will look into it. good on ya

The laptop that died was a HP and I can't say that I was impressed with their service. It did play CMBO well though. Maybe I will look back at HP. Thanks

Thanks Tom, I have to stick with PC types. Thinking about a Dell Inspirion with upgraded video card and 256MB SDRAM. Just don't know how well the 32MB DDR 4X Nvidia Go Vid will work with Battlefront games. CCBB in particular. I suspect it would be fine but would rather check around first. Bob

my laptop just died and I am in the process of getting another. any tips on what to buy or stay away from?

Noticed your quote. My Grandfather was with the AEF, Rainbow Div. Said about the same to me when I ask about WW1. Saw a young dead german. He never ever said another thing about it. Must have been very bad. Our games show us how lethal this all must have been.
