Diceman

Dambed, and I was hoping 1.12 was the last patch, and the work on CM2 would begin in earnest. ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

Mega Dittos. Well deserved. Cheers Eric ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

Oh, they're far from cutting edge, but the environment is so huge it can tax most video cards anyway. Why can't people understand this? (Nothing visible but ass and elbows as Diceman also runs for cover) ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

Fantastic! So how long before we get to see screen shots of the CM 2 beta? ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

There have been hundreds of requests for modifications of CM to be added for CM 2, the eastern front, some good, some seemingly good untill you realize the problems involved (bad), and some just flat out thoughtless and peevish (ugly). I don't know what BTS's priority list is, but here are my top three requests: 1. Trenches. 2. More building types. We need factories and grain towers. 3. Destructable barbed wire. I hate the fact my engineers can't blow up barbed wire! What's your top 3? ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

I was going to say that! Nice cat. ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

Those StuGs are georgeous! ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

Can I make this my new signature? ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

I love the way you made the Italian vehicles. Too bad they're tougher than the real thing. How do you plan on compensating for the stug's much more powerful gun and armor? Editing them in the scenario editor to have HE only will help a little bit. Do you have any other scenario "rules" in mind? Cheers Eric ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

Thanks for the reply. Is that the original Panzer Colors? I've got Panzer colors two and three coming in the mail, but Panzer colors one is out of print, as is D-Day to Berlin. I'll try to hunt down a used copy. Again, thanks. ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

Damb, the links for the picture isn't working.

First for everything. Double-post. Sorry. Eric ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman." [This message has been edited by Diceman (edited 01-29-2001).]

Anyone know some good reference matterial that has good pictures of whitewashed tanks? I need a picture or two of tanks where the whitewash is coming off becouse of rain. Thanks in advance. Eric ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

I've got an Ohmaha scenerio if you'd like to try it. Just e-mail me, and tell me what you think. Warning: huge map. ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

CM 48.7% out of 316 votes. ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

Who do you think took the picture? . Those EOD guys are nuts, and this is just the kind of fun these guys have to "lighten up" a long tedious day of training. You should see these clowns at the NCO club on a Friday night. Cheers Eric ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

Very nice work. You should post this on the web somewhere it'll get noticed. This mod deserves wide circulation. Cheers Eric ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

Absolutely fantastic. Realy brings the Sherman to life. Where are we going to be able to get them? ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

LOL Been there done that. I lost my firt user name just after Christmas '99. That was about the time we found out the Captain wasn't using full fog of war. Cheers Eric ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

You'll have to join an organized team for that. In Diablo they called 'em guilds. I think there are various teams call "Battalions" or such on the net. Personally I don't have the time, but sounds like a lot of fun. ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

Just signed up. BTW Noticed that Fionn hangs around there. Signed up under the name "Chaffee". Unfortunately someone else already has my "Diceman" handle; however, after reading some of his posts, he appears to be a true Diceman so that's O.K. ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

Work at the home of Air Force One, Andrews AFB. Going to have to retire to get off this base. ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman." [This message has been edited by Diceman (edited 01-23-2001).]

Micro Armor on a ping-pong table using of all things "Tracktics" as rules. Possibly the worst armor rules ever written. ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

Having participated in the public beta and really not understanding what all the fuss is about I just played 12 turns of "Villers-Bocage Tiger!". I must say I was quite pleased with the tank A.I. Whittman raked up quite a kill record, in a very efficient and workman like manner, just before the Fireflies showed up. Unfortunately he was near the first "Y" in the road and was overwhelmed. I think the A.I. handled the situation quite well. Yes there was some target switching, but it was always for the better, and nothing like some kind of Tiger dance. The trick in this scenario, as with any, is to not get in too deep too fast. Get in over your head and you're going to get your tank confused. Just like in real life - they'll suffer from situation overload. Villers-Bocage Tiger!" has a very target rich environment. You have to take such situations one step at a time. I don't think it's fair to expect a single tank to be able to judge which target out of an entire company of targets, spread out on an 180 degree arc of fire, is the most important to its safety with great efficiency. Actually I think the A.I. in this regard is superior to human intelligence because it doesn't have to deal with the "Oh sh** factor. In my opinion to say the A.I. is broke is a gross exaggeration. In fact I think it's better than ever. Just my two cents. Eric. ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."

Personaly, I'd like smaller downloads so I can easier pick and choose the mods I use. ------------------ Pair-O-Dice "Once a Diceman, Always a Diceman."
