It's not free, but you should be able to find The Total Operational Art of War fairly cheap. Be warned though it does have a pretty steep learning curve.

The Italians became an integral part of Rommel's forces, so they could have fought the Americans, I can't think of any specific instances.
The western Free Polish forces were an integral part of the British Army throughout the war.
The Free French fought both alongside the British and independently (LeClerc's early actions against the Italians). I'm not sure which army they were attached to in Italy, but relations between De Gaulle and Roosevelt were not good for numerous reasons. De Gaulle's relations with the British were far from perfect, but the British did recognise him as the undisputed leader of Free France.

That's progress for you, you used to have to die before you got to do cool stuff like that, now thanks to BFC we have two threads where we can do it in this life.Originally posted by Axe2121:They spend their time here either tearing at each other in anger or gurgling in the black mud below.

Volume 1 of Barrie Pitt's Crucible of War - Wavell's Command covers the East Africa campaign in a fair amount of detail.

It appears to be worse this morning. That could be just down to well known fact that computers don't like Fridays though.

Actually it's more a Cesspool for people who don't want all the rules and regulations of the Cesspool. At least that was the ideal. The reality is that it's for people who can't read the rules of the Cesspool.Originally posted by Elijah Meeks:I get it now. This is like some kind of discount, knock-off Cesspool. !

You have a firewall that prevents accessing the MBT? Cool, think of the marketing possibilities - you could sell millions in Minnesota alone. Er... does Minnesota have millions or is it one of those states that are three times the size of France, but only have the population of a medium sized English village? The middle bits of the USA always confuse me.Originally posted by Dave H:Dear Queen Emma, my genuine US government firewall will not allow me to access either site. Some mention of "adult content". Maybe you could just describe them in 10 words or less.

Yes, I can see both posts now.

I just posted a reply agreeing with you, but it disappeared after a white screen, but I was still shown as the last poster. Odd.

Yes, I woke up early this morning and had no problems until 08:30 GMT (03:30 EST), when they started again - I even had a white screen the first time I tried opening this thread. I'm wondering if there's some sort of scheduled maintenace that kicks in the early hours, US time.

I mainly play scenarios and the occasional QB via PBEM, although I tend to play the AI for a couple of months after the release of a new installment to get the hang of the new equipment and engine changes.

Nope. Iraq was a British puppet in 1939, when a pro-Axis faction siezed power in 1941, the British invaded and overthrew them in a matter of weeks.Originally posted by A.E.B:Iraq - Axis

Yes I was having problems at the same time, it took me three attempts to get into the Cheery Waffle (I was bored).Originally posted by Soddball:I hit the problems at bang on 08:30 GMT and they carried on (on and off) until I got to work at 11:00GMT.

Not sure where you are, but I saw it for £5 in the UK in GAME's January sale.

You missed out 'I've put more people to sleep than mogadon'.Originally posted by Seanachai:I've written posts modeled on all the World's mythologies. I've done... etc.
You also missed out 'I haven't sent Firefly a turn since before Christmas'.

That programme is probaly what the radio show was was taliking about (I missed the start of the item), as it was on BBC Radio 4. I mistakenly assumed it was an author plugging his book, as that's what most of the people on the show do

As I type this, I'm listening to a radio chat show where an author is talking about his book on the activities of mad boffins in WW2. It appears that German tankers in N. Africa, believed that driving through piles of camel dung was lucky and the British started producing fake, booby trapped, camel dung in response. Naturally this resulted in the Germans being more circumspect with regard to camel droppings, so the British went one better - fake, booby-tapped camel dung with tire tracks through it!
I can't find any of this stuff in the CMAK purchase screen. BFC fix or sumfink!

My father was an RAF radio fitter in India and made a career of it after the war, serving until 1964, two uncles served in North Africa as RASC drivers and a third took part in the invasion of Iraq and spent the rest of the war there. A fourth uncle, who was too old for miltary service, was a firefighter in Hull during the Blitz. My mother spent the war working as a nurse, the first ward she worked on being for injured German airmen, whom she remembered as being cheerful and friendly young men - the experience put her off war for life.

Any free Divison level games out there?

I've no idea, but as any division level game would have that problem, I thought James might have some ideas
