    Try harder with those comebacks Benny, I'm trying to get you banned.

    Besides I'm so Gay I don't even use the mouse or the computer in playing CM, for that FOW effect I write orders up and get my pet monkey Lulu to implement them.

    Come on everyone, come out I'm full FOW and proud!<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

    Bastables, you've given me the courage to come out of the full FOW closet.Now it's off to tell my friends and family.

    As for the banning, I'd imagine that's a forgone conclusion(I could be wrong) and that he wants to go out in a blaze of stupidity.

    Think about that Gun Dog in the Pacific: Buildings are made of twigs how on earth do you model that? And think of this as well how long would it take to load a landing on a beach head? An hour?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

    That's right,Rob.They would cut down trees,turn them into boards and then take the extra step of turning them into twigs.It was a lot of extra work but worth it in the end.

    Twigs...feh!!

    Actually, I first learned of this nasty little beast---the "Davey Crockett"---from Norm Koger, the designer of the TOAW game series, back in 1998. It was related by him the same way here----anyone who fired off this mini-nuke couldn't presume to survive it himself (unless bunkered down and wearing a full suite of NBC protection clothing).<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

    I just consulted a TO&E from 1964.Apparently, one of these items was issued with each weapon.

    Army tests showed that they were nearly 100% effective in shielding from radiation when used properly!

    It's not always what you see, but what you don't see. I've been stationed in Japan 11 out of 19 years and there's a lot that goes on in this corner of the world that doesn't make it onto CNN or your local newspaper.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

    Yokosuka?

  5. Okay, this one sorta caught me off guard.You're not just voting for a game of the year.You get to cast five votes in each of the four time periods:1980-85,86-90,91-95,96-2000.There're some pretty tough decisions to make.Almost like having seven kids and being told to get rid of two.

    The actual act of voting is easy.The hard part is the choices...all those choices.

    Woooo-wee! After seeing the title of this thread, I was afraid somebody was gonna give away how WW2 ends!

    Don't spoil it for me now guys!<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

    I agree,von lucke.I made it through the American educational system without learning the ending and I don't want it spoiled now.

  7. Let's say you have a battle with three King Tigers.The program finds and uses bmps 3030-3039 for all three.Would it be difficult to write a patch that told the game to also apply any bmps that had the 3030-3039 base.For example, if you took a second KT mod and renamed the bmps 3030-01,3031-01,3032-01 and so on,this alternate set would then be used for one of the KTs.And if for the third KT you wanted to use the default set but with a turret that had different unit markings you would just add the extension to the turret bmp (3032-2).Or it could made to access the alternates randomly.Whichever way is easiest.

    Obviously, you'd be able to add extensions to any of the bitmaps.

    So is this something that would be relatively easy to do in a patch or would it require some major work on the game engine?
