Oh my, I haven't looked to see if we're playing the same side in the battle you're referring to, but I FEEL YOUR PAIN!!! Any help at all, would be SO appreciated. *sigh* Jeb

Hey there folks, I'm Big Xs aforementioned opponent in this battle, and I'm a little confused at this point. I didn't realize things had gone that way, I thought your morale had broken. Dang, I don't have a movie file left to look at it. Kudos to you again for playing out the battle as well as you did, the morale break, whoever's it was, surely did effect the score. Jeb

I bet ours will ship together, NW Austin here...</font>

Thanks for the added info about Mcafee and the Klez virus Frank. I did exactly as stated, from a command prompt, and still came out clean. I'm pretty sure at this point that my system is virus-free, but I'll head over to Symantec's site to try their Klez tool as well. Jeb

Howdy all, Yep, I'm in the same boat, I've been getting virus emails from the same group, and Treeburst said he'd gotten one from me as well. I downloaded the latest McAfee virus scan program last night, and scanned my computer, but everything came up clean, so I don't think it's me. Jeb

Ahhh, cool! Hey there Rat. I thought you were indeed the newest inflicter of horrific casualties on my poor troops, I just wasn't sure. Pleased to meet you, I'll look forward to our game. I'm having awful computer problems right now, so it might be a day or two till I can reply. Jeb

Hey Treeburst, I haven't heard a thing yet on the St. Mere scenario from our newest replacement player, and he's supposed to start this one. Jeb

I haven't heard from GeneralSV for a couple of weeks now, despite several attempts to contact him. Jeb

Just thought I'd chime in as well concerning GeneralSV's abscence. I'm in the same boat, have recieved a grand total of about 4-6 files from him, and currently haven't heard from him in two weeks despite several attempts at contact. Jeb

CombinedArms, I'd be happy to have a go at playing an attack/defend with one of these force groups, looks to be an interesting fight. Jeb

Howdy Treeburst, I've been regularly exchanging files with Easy-V, and I still haven't heard a peep out of GeneralSV since he sent me the setup file a long time ago. Jeb

Silvio, While appreciative of your efforts in planning your moves for Head To The Hills, there's really nothing much to worry about. My troops are all from a "Stomach and ear" battalion, and are currently engaged in gumming turnip soup and hoping the Americans arrive with some better rations soon. With that in mind, your best bet is to simply run all your units deep into my side of the map. After all, the war is almost over, and my boys are ready to welcome you tourists with open arms. Just look for large groups of old men in leiderhosen, we'll be ready to surrender en masse if your boys have any rations or cigarettes. Yours in surrender, Corporal Jeb

I emailed GeneralSV also, and haven't heard from him. Hey Silvio, I haven't gotten anything from you in a couple of days now, ever since I sent you the first setup turn for Head For The Hills. My poor troops are eager to make your acquaintance. Jeb

Hey there Heavy, I haven't heard from him either, so I'm not sure what's up with him at this point. Jeb

Hey there Treeburst, Just wondering if I'm missing something here. Have you sent all the scenario files already? I haven't received the last two yet. Jeb

Well, I've played Swamp a fair amount at Tournament house, and he's damn hard to beat, without a doubt. For the most part he buys as much infantry and artillery as he possibly can within the purchase limits. He tends not to buy too much armor at all, as he doesn't need to. That's really about it. Swamp is without a doubt one of the most skilled players there is when playing a QB. It's not just MEs, either. He'll play attacks and defenses too. I agree though that 52 in a row is just amazing. I might have to get back to tournament house and see if he wants to go for 53

Ahh, so they do have the old versions somewhere. Ok Toad, thanks a ton for your help. Jeb Just FTP into the Battlefront server. All the patches are there. ftp://ftp.battlefront.com/pub/patches/

For reasons that shall remain nameless, (so as not to put you to sleep)I need to obtain a copy of the 1.03 patch. I've looked at a variety of CM websites, and I can't seem to find it anywhere. Does anyone know where I can grab a copy of it, or failing that could anyone send it to me? Your help is greatly appreciated. Regards, Jeb

Sorry if this has already been posted, but I wanted to let folks know that there is a great article written by Charles Moylan which details how CM came to be at: http://www.zdnet.com/gamespot/features/pc/postgame_wrapup/ Regards, Jeb

Ahh, you did remember me. Nice to hear from ya! Unfortunately, I'm at work right now so I'm CM-free for the time being. I'd still love to do a PBEM game though if you ever get the inclination.(is there a central listing of PBEM opponents somewhere?) I've noticed some of the old-hands here and there around the board, not too surprising that this game would reel em all in. I'm really just amazed at how good CM is, it pretty much answers all my prayers for a wargame that I thought would NEVER be answered. I gotta say I still play *cough* the "other" wargame quite a bit still. Oh man, I'm gonna be incinerated for saying that. Seems like there's room for both of them in the world. Anyways, hope to hear from you soon, I'd be honored to learn the ropes from you some time.I have some great memories of our epic battles. Jeb

Hey SSPL! Man, you probably won't remember me, but I played quite a few battles against you vying for the number 1 ladder spot back in the days of CC2. I take it you're a Pro CMer now? Anyway, just thought I'd say Hi, it was a blast from the past seeing your name here. I'm pretty new to CM, been playing the full version for a week or two, but I'd love to try a PBEM game at some point. If you get bored enough to wallop a relative newbie, let me know, I'm a glutton for punishment. Have a good one. Jeb
