For Immediate Release: BFC, in ushering in a new era of wargaming has released pictures from their latest efforts on the re-write of their famed Combat Mission game engine.For all the newbies.....

I was trying to see if I could sustitute a recording of PanzerLeid for the taps at the AAR screen. iirc Wav. 0000129. I have it in both .aiff and MP3. I am installing on a Mac btw. When I loaded it as a wav file, it plays , but v..........e..........r...........y........... s..............l.............o.............w.........l............y. I am using a program to convert them, but what settings should the wav file be set for.

Unfortunetly, I do not think they are going to do it for either CMBO or CMBB. We can only hope for CM2 re write and switch back to classic (ducks) in the meantime [ October 22, 2002, 03:02 PM: Message edited by: jdmorse ]

Well there are assault boats. CMBO had a loverly mod done with a couple of fish in the bottom, salmon I believe Then again you had 15 inch naval guns controlled by a Forward Observer. They did make everything fall down and go boom! Really ruined your plans when they hit! [ October 21, 2002, 07:56 PM: Message edited by: jdmorse ]

Once a dog faced boy, always one. Now go find yer ears you git. post some 'real rules' like ya have a pair.

History and where we came from are all important elements of myth and a community's culture. We have had many people drop by, unfortunetly not all have left. It seems it is possibe that many may not know of our traditions or where it all started. While 'mighty Ajax' may prove to be a psychotic sociopath and rapist in real life™ nonetheless we sometimes need to be able to re-vist our roots. As a PSA for any who have not had the chance to visit our wellspring, I share A Portal to the Peng Challenge Origins You will find the link at the bottom of Lindans page. In other news There Can Be Only One Challenge which seems to be almost as old as the MBT, after draws too numerous to count seems to be coming to a close. Maximus' command to Unleash Hell occurred this turn. Seanachai's men scream in terror and run directly into the barbed wire where I am afraid history repeats (it is Baugeuz - read Malmedy). His attempt to use Vietnamese Buddhist monks as a 'stiffener' seems to hit a snag as they seemd to have self imolated. True, scattered about are individual bits of heroism, leavened unfortunelty with too many 'bits' of other things....... [ October 20, 2002, 12:42 PM: Message edited by: jdmorse ]

Hiram My thoughs are with you this evening, and with your sister. Your sister gives you the gift of herself, and you return the favor. You can cry and hug and caress and simply be with each other. We in this world are finite creatures, and by luck or destination we have different roads to travel, many as you well know are most demanding and exceedingly unfair. Yet we all will face that time. Of most importance to those caught up in that transition is the support and love of those that mean so much to them. As you have helped shoulder her burden you allow her focus on some of the most meaningful times she will ever face. It is however a mark of your value that you feel the anger and rage and impotence, yet cradle her in your thoughts so gently. You are our brother and friend, and we here can only support you and allow you to support your sister. Anytime Hiram anytime. Be at peace, not for the promises of the time beyond because who will know if it's true, be at peace because you are a truly and fully human, of compassion and emotion, and you love her dearly. No greater gift do you give her. [ October 20, 2002, 02:53 AM: Message edited by: jdmorse ]

Public Service Announcement As an example of conservation odfmatter, nothing is ever lost. I present, courtesy of Lindan and panzershark, Portal to the ORIGINAL Peng Challenge Yes the first 122 pages of the Mutha Beautiful Thread is available for viewing. A link is on his page that will take you Hubble like to the Origins of Time. Abandon hope for the times of Darkness shall spread [ October 20, 2002, 01:28 AM: Message edited by: jdmorse ]

What people always seem to forget that Peng is a concept. MrPeng was kidnapped and has been held against his will, mewling to be given the final release, Yet it always denied. His dearest wish is that it all jsut go away, but then like a growing pustule it consumes all around, including poor Peng. He has even at one time renounced the moniker and has repeatedly disowned the MBT, but I am afraid there are copyright ™ problems [ October 20, 2002, 01:15 AM: Message edited by: jdmorse ]

Also remeber that in RL™ the panzergrenadiers would dismount and attack on foot. For the scale of CMBB battles, it might be a bit unrealsitic to have the transport near the objective.

I think the best advice (which I keep reminding myself) is think Real World™ What would you actually do in such a situation. Actual military tactics work. Game style play doesn't. Establishing a fire base with suppressing fire works alot better than just running your guys across an open field. Following the line of the hills to stay out of sight, things like that will reward you. Learn that use of smoke is your friend, planes even your own often are not. Take little steps, read some history about small unit tactics. A good set of primers is the Battlefront Bookshelf Enjoy

I see by your fuzzed haired visage that you are but a newly lost traveler to these parts. You have asked a question, there is no answer. All of the above statements are true, and none of them are. You might as well ask if a dog (or Mace's Sheep) has Buddha nature. The droll reality is about the same. Or ask if Seanachai can really say anything in less than 3 paragrahs (the answer is no - but then even in three paragraphs he doesn't really SAY anything. MrPeng legendary creature that he is (and don't be listening to Berli for one minute, not if you value your eternal soul) Nonetheless of humorous mien, full of sound and fury signifying really very little and usually recovering in Rehab, not to mention the smell, is rarely heard of or seen. Sasquatch has a more active PR flack. Then again there is the active case, "to be Penged" is an event, or is tha ablative and is that like armor flaking. Actually, the Cesspool, a creation of the collective psychosis of it's inhabitants, is the most fertile grounds for enlightenment. Look for a thread title of arcane incantation (or sophistry if PanzerLeader attempts it) the contains the mystical and sacred runes (not rune that's another matter) that manifest PENG and CHALLENGE in them. Read with in and all will be revealed and made clear. Of course your will want to gouge out your eyes later.Perhaps a discussion with Grog Dorosh would be a better fate. There aren't you glad you asked? [ October 19, 2002, 02:52 AM: Message edited by: jdmorse ]

A-men Brother!

On my Mac Stuffit seemed to work okay for me on some .rar files, proabably was 7.0. iirc I had to maually launch as they did not iniially open automatically.

So send a turn ya gultinous git

Ahh good day mein herren und frauleins. It's a beautiful morning and the rest home thought it a good idea for me to go on a bit of a walk about. Of course they thought I'd stay on the grounds. Bugger them. I have my dentures packed, my eight track primed and the double knits pressed. Time to boogie. Hell, thank god memories are fickle things. Any how some news for you all. After trashing Hirsute Hiram in a double blind sceanrio that he was also playing with Elvis he surrendered as the whipped dog he is. He has now embarked on further humiliation in sending me a set up of Cementary Ridge. I just want to know how there can be armor flaking in a wooden Mg bunker. He sports naked about the woods, no doubt conducting Satanic Druidic ruitals to Berli (fat chance that'll help him) while my faithful and loyal cannon fodder soak up the Stoli. AquaP and I are still trying to figure out if his retrograde advance is taking him any where. That and both of us being so befuddled as not to be able to figure out who owes who a file. For a while he forced me to become a non numbering file git. My constant bane and companion in misery Seanachai and I are engaged in a titanic struggle of wills and futility that spans the eons, yea many kalpas of sister kisssing draws. 5 or 6 at last report going back into the darker recesses of thread incarantions. I am happy to report that There can be ONLY ONE Challenge may be coming to a close. The Bardles was foolish enough to play a lawyer in a scenario designed by Lawyer (ie Baugnez) Thus his destruction and binding in perpetual litiagtion is assured. Mua ha ha. My greetings and felicitations to dear Moriarty, Macey and Justicar Joe We really must sport one of these days. [ October 16, 2002, 03:18 PM: Message edited by: jdmorse ]

Hmmm....must of dozed off, I was remebering the 70's I am afraid. Now where did I put my dentures. Loverly, perhaps some warm milk? Helps my lumbago, you know. [ October 16, 2002, 02:44 PM: Message edited by: jdmorse ]

Ahh ... "tales of brave Ulysses, as his naked ears were torutured, by the Sirens sweetly singing..." Perhaps being an L'avocat has made me cynical

and now not available due to 'excessive bandwith consumption' So stop DL'ding unitl I can get it [ October 14, 2002, 07:42 PM: Message edited by: jdmorse ]

Gary, I think I'll nominate you as the Mod-Sluts™ Pin up ah, er, 'person' ! Trememdous work and my hats off to you and the work you've done since the beginning.

I hope someone ports over those German winter jumpsuits from CMBO

That's correct....now can anyone tell me where I can pick it up these days? I can't seem to find it in the 947 Mb :eek: of CMBO Mod storage on my hard drive. (or send it to me ) otherwise I have to tease it out of the resources on a Mac. Thanks for listening

Okay Herr von Lucke, I will be happy to give it a try.

Yeppers, opened the mailbox just north of Portland, Oregon and there it was, all pretty, patriotic, red white and blue....ahh the memories of CMBO flashback. Now kiddies off to plumb it's mysteries.....

Good looking.....andit is nice to see you posting and around again.....still have some of your cmbo mods installed.
