  1. Nope, you wouldn't. I was tasked to do South African voice files during CMAK's development, but my sound computer hardware then was not up to scratch, so MadMatt bumped me off for being utter useless. Apologies to all.
  2. This was the ratio decidendi of Battlefront's argument with the original PBEM-in-or-not? thread many moons ago, repeated again here. Nothing has changed. Good. I appreciate consistency and cutting to the chase.
  3. Done. As per sigline below. Probably also the reason why we received the Sturm Tiger in CMBB. When there's a laziness in programming I know that I have to ease down on the %'s on the bottle labels.
  4. Elegant. What the man said is my view too. Much obliged Cpl Steiner for typing my thoughts too. For the 2nd time
  5. See, now this is the real problem here. You're getting paid to think it over with food? Come ooOOn! It's a no-brainer that liquid smoothes the grey cells and greases the thought process. Especially if it's liquid food in the form of Belgian beers. Tsk, tsk. You have lost the plot.
  6. I buy not just Combat Mission products, but integrity. A company that simulates something so good cannot help but to pique my interest in WWII, which, at best, I had a passing interest. Whatever they simulate, it will continue to keep me interested, whether I prefer that specific genre or not. BFC’s trilogy alone has cost me a couple of thousand dollars in WWII books/encyclopedia etc, bought over the last 6-7 years. And I am the wiser for it. Thus BFC has given more knowledge to me than they ever intended. And that is priceless. I might not like a module/game they simulate due to preference, but I will continue buying into their philosophy and their products. Why? They push the gaming envelope - with panache. Their programming ingenuity, their simple yet powerful executed gaming concepts that keeps track with reality in some form or other, their attention to detail, their customer service, a helpful forum community, their interaction with said community, their philosophy of giving back to programmers they help publish, and much more. How can I, or others, give such experiences a miss? Count me in as spreading the word for BFC's products, continuously for the past 7 years … and in the forseeable future. Sincerely, Charl Theron
  7. Good title, for a change. I actually stumbled in unwillingly on a reflex click. Carry on.
  8. Your name is in the hat sir. SIDENOTE: I have several interested buyers for my wine business and property lately. So will be selling within the next year or so - might be sooner. Plus with my 15-year awaited nomination coming in (for a soccer related activity) a few days ago, things are panning out where I will be enjoying life away from a computer screen, possibly for months on end. Just letting all know, even if get rid of the family jewel, I will still honour the sponsorship of the planned CMC-RoW tourney as stated in beginning of this thread. It will be my last. Sincerely, Charl Theron
  9. Hope is not a plan. Nor is false hope a false plan.
  10. Sire, Thy 'unwashed masses' refers to the sediment prose, better known me lord, as the Justicar's everlasting thread. Thou have no pair to show, unless thou are an useful idjit.
  11. It's cheaper sending wine, given the subscription fees Janes Defence charges. Helllloooooo.
  12. You obviously haven't tried the CM:C demo yet. </font>
  13. LOL, With out those threads you so dislike ,we would be luck to have three threads going at one time on this forum. </font>
  14. We have enough of those threads. Please.
  15. Chickens damnit. For heavens sake, don't forget the obligatory chickens!
  16. Now you know why I try to stay out of these threads. People just don't read.
  17. Rudel, Don't worry abouth your English. The latter is my 3rd language; if I can understand you, I'm sure 99% on this board can. Carry on... I'm aware that the D-30 towed howitzer has a fin-stabilized HEAT round, enabling it to engage AFV's in direct fire. Apparently it can penetrate +/- 450mm armor at any range. The D-30 also has the ability to be equipped with IR or passive night vision sights for direct fire. Wonder if the Syrians have these add-ons?

  18. Keep it up Rudel. Interesting stuff. Steve, how long are you able to coax him?
  19. First impresssion: Seems easy on the eye and structured in logical command groups, with clear LED's to warn you in one quick glance.
  20. 'Tis a red card! This forum does not cease to amaze me. Common decency is anything but common. :eek: Edit: Spelling devil. [ August 30, 2006, 11:36 PM: Message edited by: WineCape ]
  21. You called? And a big chunk thereof consist of this..
  22. Welcome back Manx - you seem to be quite scarce of late?
