Your crusade for South African forces in CMAK is noteworthy! [ July 19, 2003, 07:08 AM: Message edited by: WineCape ]

Since 1659 if memory serves correctly. Why, I believe my signature below says it all regarding the type of wines you might be indulging if playing in a RoW tourney and you are lucky enough to beat your opponents into a pulp on the battle field. But then, political events of late seems to conspire against people receiving liquor via mail, especially more so after the Twin Towers debacle... Hello Cpl. Carrot! How did you do in RoW III? Charl Theron

Hello all, Been away for 2 months on my 1st holiday in 8 years. (Mostly to Europe and Madeira). Will take me some time to peruse the RoW III threads scattered over the board. Any news from people about the difficulty of receiving the wine prices/gifts send before I left? Especially to some states in the USA. Let me know. Any news on those that received/tasted the fruits on South Africa's sunshine in the bottles will be much appeciated too. If you didn't like some wines, will be glad to hear which ones. I assume CMBB 1.03 is out long ago, better head over to check and download. Kingfish, drop me an e-mail during your busy schedule if you think there is anything I should know. It's good to back.

Whilst I agree that this thread serves the sincere effort by readers to indicate errors in the revised book, I for one - and I'm speaking only for myself here gentlemen - are almost too embarressed to highlight mistakes I would pick up in the 2nd revised edition. That is, when I receive my free, gratis copy in due time. Why? Call me a thankful customer, receiving great service/value for my money. Mistakes noted in the 2nd edition: I'll make my notes based on this helpful thread and write it down. Any picked up by this reader will be gleefully marked with the following note in the book's sideline: "See, a small imperfection! Nobody is perfect... Bless you BFC for outstanding service!

Ted, how is the legs doing after the soccer op? Good to see you are bored again. Send my best flags to Rune, will you?

My God Jason, You never cease to amaze me with your typing skills, never mind the reasoning Useful indeed Sincerely, Charl

Roger. Got your dates. Will sort the winners out then in due course. Ehmm... Sun tanning will NOT be on the agenda. Wife is not too keen spending 1000's just to turn brown. Can get also enough of that when in the Karoo at my parents farm - sometimes reaching 42 Deg. C. in the shade. What I WILL do is some bull runs in Spain - sober - apart from sampling some old Madeira's at my father-in-laws house. Also taking some SA vino with to convert the Europeans that they have paid too much all these years for decent wine. Catch all RoW participants on the rebound.

To Kingfish and possible tourney winners of RoW III. I will be taking my family on an extended holiday to Europe (Madeira, France, Italy) as from 10 May - 8 July. Will be my first proper vacation in 8,5 years. :eek: Therefor, if the RoW III produces a winner(s) before this time, let me know ASAP so that I can send the winners their wine.

My many hours of looking/playing with Andrew Fox mods in CM has now been paid in kind. He reports the consignment arrived safely at his door. Keeping certain select people drunk, including BFC members, have paid off. Thank me. Why you might ask? 'Cause Charles coded the Sturm Tiger into CMBB while under vino influence Cheers Andrew!

Scott, I've send you an e-mail with the completed RoW I Excel results. The one you have as a d/l at Boots & Tracks seem to miss a result or 3. Did you receive it? Sincerely Charl

Have you drunk any of the wine send to you Lars? Or did Seanachai grab the lot?

Thanks gents - always a pleasure playing your scenarios. PS: Thank you for updating the RoW tourney section of your site!

I hereby pledge whatever $'s BFC charge for CMAK first. Take my money now. The rest of the forum members, please join the line, behind me. I'm happy to pay now, before the Pengers charge in with their 100 copies to order.

The package has finally arrived at Lars' place. I have paid my debt in kind. Baie Dankie! Charl Theron Stellenbosch, South Africa

Michael, Regarding the correct term for the South Afican forces and those involved in WWII (Italy + North Africa) look here: SA Forces in WWII Basic Info 6th Armored Division in Italy SA Army Formations in WWII "South African Army" will do just fine.

Brilliant! Always good to hear wines arrived as INTENDED. The Peng members are useful after all! Send my kindest to Seanachai too for his quick thinking regarding my original dilemma and I thank you again Lars for all the trouble in getting the goodies to South Africa via Minnesota!

I believe Lars is in possession of the liquid gold - see my signature at the very bottom as payment for their kind deeds. Caveat: Larsie has this to say: "I fear the Minnesota contingent of the Peng Challenge will be tracking me down soon. How do I put cheap stuff back in the bottles and re-cork it?" Bless the Peng challenge, and in particular also Seanachai. PS: When do the Peng intend to hold their Gamey Bastard Tourney?
