It appears a new artist has broken onto the scene at Tom's Combat Mission HQ.

If you "reply all" to that (and remove my email address), you should be left with pmet's email address. If you need further help, feel free to email ( tedquincey@yahoo.com ).

TB, Thanks. I think the Nebelwerfers would go very nicely with the 14 inch guns.

AAAAAAAAAAggggggggggggggggggggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!<hr></blockquote> VJ, Everybody who completed a questionnaire will be receiving an email from me just as soon has Lord Dragon stops playing with his Member! :eek:

<blockquote>quote:</font><hr>Originally posted by Lord Dragon: LOL! Thanks for holding my hand through it, and it didn't even hurt!! <hr></blockquote> Lord D, You haven't received my bill yet. :eek:

Lord D, Whoops! It appears somebody's not a Newbie anymore. Whatever will we do?

Lord D, I see no proof that you are a member. :confused:

Lord D, Please let me know when you reach 2.

Herr K, I think the best way to make that determination is to look at the OOBs for the various units on the purchase screen. Sometimes the AT weapons are attached to the platoon and other times they are attached to the company. Either way, the information you find there is reliable. My point is there is no one answer that covers all platoons at all times for all nations. It varies A LOT. I hope that helps.

Lord D, How many did you say that was?

<blockquote>quote:</font><hr>Originally posted by Lord Dragon: plus, i am shamelessly trying to post myself up to member status. <hr></blockquote> Lord D, Only six more posts to go...

Lord D, I am knee-deep in questionnaires! I am almost done sorting things out. Once I do, I'll send an email to everybody who completed a questionnaire to let them know where they have been placed. Then, I'll make the formal announcement here. After all the announcements are done, I'll get the opponent pairs set for the first round. That information will be announced here and sent to a generous soul who has set up some simple online brackets that will allow everybody to follow the progress of the tournament. THEN, I'll send the game files out! THEN, I'll sleep!

Bruce, Who wouldn't?! :cool:

Mike, You kill me!

It appears Scipio had a little something up his sleeve at WarfareHQ.

Cpl C, I'll add you to the Reserve Newbie Helper List. Thanks.

Yes, the moment has finally arrived! If you have already received a questionnaire, please complete it and return it right away. Over the next few hours, I'll be sorting through the ones I have and determing who will be in The Garden Variety Newbie Tournament and will be in The SuperNewbie Tournament. There are going to be extra questionnaires, so not everybody will be able to get into the two tournaments above. The only way these "extras" will be able to play is if I get enough questionnaires to fill a third tournament (The Newbie Rejects). So, if you would still like to play and have no problem being a Reject, send me an email at tedquincey@yahoo.com .

Garulfo, A little from column A and a little from column B. Yup, it's in "The Pile." Oh yeah- 16 minutes...

MikeyD, When Manx is ready.
