HI guys, My old pent 200 with voodoo 2 card and soudblaster 64 card can cope with CM but only just. I can upgrade to P3 600 with the same grapics and sound card but is my 32 meg ram ok? The guy at the shop says 32 will be ok but what is more important for playing the game, RAM or processor speed? I don't mind spending the bucks but I don't want to waste them. Comments please

Put me down for a Mouse mat and coffe mug!!!!

If a crack team of smilies under the command of Mr Peng were to hi-jack the shipments of games, what would everyone be prepared to pay for their safe release?

Hi Freyland, I've had the same problem using 'sneak' also.Obviously sneak lets your guys move stealthly around but it seems if they are under movement orders past the target they will continue to follow the movement order and not attack the target of opportunity. Target them yes but not shoot. I've had a 9 man squad sneak up to (5M distance) and past a HQ unit who proceeded to shoot my squad in the back as they sneaked quietly and slowly away (after targeting the HQ but not shooting) My only suggestion is to use sneak only to approach an enemy then resort to run for the final attack. Not much of an answer to your question but thats what i've come across and it's bloody annoying when it happens.

HeHeHeHe, I am home now enjoying a beer and for all my American friends, I know you are all tucked up in your beds. I have this board all to myself!!!!HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Oh the power, the limitless power!!!! Plus check out the member status, thats right boys I can now move freely through the ranks of the CM veterans, pro's and top guns, assuming the wisdom and status that comes with 'member' status. I've been penged and survived, I've achieved member status and I've got crates of home brew at my disposal! Another brewski and I'm gonna invade Poland! Slurr'in Stuka out

Hooray for everyone!!

Hooray for Elvis!

hooray for mr peng!!!

Thank you pengy old bean, that was great! To have been penged and lost is better than to have never been penged at all. Did the peanut gallery have fun,too? One point while we're making things easy to read, Crucifixition is a doddle, not a 'doodle'. A doodle is something you may have a little bit of a fixation with. Thank you for sparing the time to contemplate the size of mine.... and look, no smilies!!!!! I never did like them anyway. Best I go home and have a beer now to recover from the abuse, strange, I do feel somehow the better for it. Shot to bits Stuka out

The wowowowowo was my dog singing, he loves the chipmunks

How many do I need to play with the big boys?

Excellant tips,I had no idea how the satchel dudes worked. I thought they were only for use against buildings , bridges and emplacements etc.And it's kind of hard to get 1 man up to the anti tank gun in VoT!

!!!!WAR!!!!! "WooWoWoWOWOooo, what is it good for? absolutely nothin' say it again now WWooWoWowooooo" Everybody sing along:d

Your'e right mr Mark IV, right now i'm tightening my helmet chin strap, adjusting loose webbing and loading my carbine.I'm ready to face Mr peng and all his dark hordes can throw at me.... (Oh and putting away my little mine digger)

Does anyone know the priority for game delivery, I guess it's USA first then probably europe, What about poor little old Australia?

The ammo dump question has been covered before, i think. In a game that is meant to simulate 60 minutes of real combat, there would generally be no time to send vehicles back, load them up and return them to the front lines ( under fire) before either the game is over or the units dead/captured.So do the best you can with what youv'e got!!

Kind of frustrating isn't it? I mean yelling at little guys on your screen to shoot. None of us would have any problem running head on into a sherman would we?

You guys are nuts!!! sorry, nutz!!

Goering's smilie would be as big as 2 regular smilies and have a nasty morphine habit

As a great man once said (probably) "I shall weather the storm of your penging, for whatever does not kill me will only make me stronger" As for german boy and mark iv, you guys really know how to make a new guy feel welcome. I'm glad you're not my squad leaders, my first day in your platoons and you'd have me digging out land mines with my dick. (easily done of course!) Roll on member status!!!

Thanks for the replies guys, we were in the thick forest at the time but at only 5 metres range my germans should have been able to reach out and poke the HQ guys with their bratwurst sausages! I didn't give the order to target the HQ though, maybe this was the problem but at that range they should have seen the danger for themselves. The idea behind sneak mode is to move quietly and attack targets as they present themselves, is this correct? I could have said move or run but there has to be a benefit to using 'sneak'

What about us Aussies? A case of great white bird bring'um bang bang game?! I know what's gonna happen, the postie won't be able to fit the parcel in my letter box so all i'll get is a little note telling me my parcel is ready for collection at the depot. So near but so far!!

Still can't get it right not :0 no I have'nt been penged, does it hurt?

How dumb do I feel? As I posted this topic the last thing I saw was "smilies legend" DOH!!!!!!:0

While playing VoT as the germans against the AI, I sent a rested, 9 man rifle squad in sneak mode after a US platoon HQ with 2 of their 4 men already dead. Imagine my suprise/horror when the germans walked to 5 metres of the HQ (facing them)and then continued to walk away! At this time the 2 yankees started pistol shoot'in with the result they took out 2 of my squad and left the rest lying on the ground in panic mode. I thought sneak mode let you move quietly until contact was made with the enemy. Was the danger posed by the 2 HQ guys not enough to let the squad override my sneak order? Any thoughts?
