It's Friday! So it must be time for... Game Updates!: Those Who Are Dying: Iskander: We have a real furball going. I can't tell who's winning but it's sure not going to be the poor sods back at the motor pool who have to fix all this scrap metal. Noba: Blowing up buildings. The old "shoot through an apartment block of buildings, ricochet from the rocks, deflect down off the TC's head, and destroy his tanks" ploy didn't work nearly as well on him as it did on MrSpkr. I chalked up one but he shot back with a second tank. Gamey bastiche. Smoke is down and I'm waiting for his final assault. Time is running out for him. MrSpkr: Rotten lawyer type (I know that's redundant). Sent me a setup where I'm the French. And there is no apartment blocks this time either. The sad part is, I'd have to hire one of his brethren to get even properly. I'm working up a real proper Parisian sneer though. OGSF: The unintelligible one is off to Scotland for fresh haggis. He should have just stayed home and turned the wee spaniel inside out. He's blowing up buildings too. Seemed a bit upset that I have an Assault Boat spotting for me on a hill. Is that gamey? AussieJeff: If it wasn't for the TacAI this poor wallaby abuser wouldn't have a chance. At least the TacAI is smart enough to use smoke when assaulting a Fortress. To bad he already used up all his Arty shelling apartment blocks and dug in tanks. Simon: We're fighting tooth and nail for two churches. Never mind that there is no flags there. I've decided to withdraw and let him have them both. The sectarian turmoil on his own side will get him sooner or later. Those Who Will Be DELETED From The Active Update Ranks: That's right. I haven't heard from these pathetic losers in so long that I'm going to drop them and move their files to the junk folder. Agua Perdido: Send a turn. You were losing due to my superior set-up (i.e. hitting go on the default). Hanns: Send a turn. My own Squire too. At least he doesn't embarrass me in public. Sock Monkey: Send a turn. You were losing, I was winning. Yes, that game. You have been warned. Do something or face the Abyss of Eternal Peril. Now, I'm off on the lake this weekend to drink beer and watch the newest bikini fashions. Fight nicely amongst yourselves until I get back.

CMBB's only competition will be my boat, fishing rod and a beer.

Will it run for a little more time? One year is not enough to see the true value of all the research items or units.

Just shows that a computer AI is smarter than the French.

Thanks Hubert! I was going to buy it anyway just to end the frustration of the demo ending right when the game was getting interesting. But like Aacooper, PBEM is the way I have to play due to time constraints. This will be a great help.

Just send AussieJeff a sheep costume and Mace his address.

The French AI can't really afford to reinforce the airfleet or leave it at risk for the tank groups so it withdraws it. I haven't seen any Free French armies after the fall of Paris, just the naval units.

What resolution are you running at?

agreed *sounds of retching can be heard* How the hell can I only type seven words and still have to edit? It's because I'm still in awe of how my Tuesday is actually worse than my Monday was. Monday was a timid mouse compared to the beast that is today. HR already had a good talking to with me today. It seems that I insult too many of my people and use words that demean them. I didn't explain to them that I blame the Peng thread. I just did the cowtow thing and apologized for my carnal nature. How I abhor decent people.</font>

What a bunch of alphabet grogs. Just gimme the game.

Well, there is the small matter of $7 million in development costs, plus burning the cd's, advertising, shipping & handling, etc. All provided courtesy of my back pocket.

Try this. http://flightsimmers.net/helipad/gunship/ They are adding a Vietnam mod.

Think it through, their mom had sex with Croda (we presume). Are you sure you want to wish that on them?</font>

Congrats Croda. Here's to hoping they take after their mom.

Sorry Immer, didn't mean for it to come off as a personal attack. Just want the best game possible. It's very valuable to see how and what your opponent did within the limits of your units spotting abilities. Not being able to see his attacks or moves will be a severe drawback. What am I supposed to do? Ask him?

How about if once you get the first research level a point disappears and you have to buy another point to get to the next research level? The way it is now one point can take you to the top, conceivably in every research area in a long game.

I agree with Jeff. PBEM replay is a must. Was my unit destroyed by a air fleet, tank unit, battleship, rocket, what? We get to see the AI's move. And if you implement TCP/IP I assume we would see the Opponent's move. Why not for PBEM? To say that not having it adds to Fog of War is ludicrous. If it really adds to Fog of War have it work that way when I toggle it on/off. And if you could run back the complete game later would be nice too. Look how long we've been bugging BTS for it in CMBO.
