I've seen Shawshank about a dozen times. Still not tired of it, great flick. I think Castaway might be as good, but I've only seen that one twice.

Why is it that the closer we get to 9/20/2002, the further away it seems?

If that doesn't work, go to the tools menu, Internet options, click on the privacy tab. Click on advanced and enable the 'Over-ride automatic cookie handling' option. Oops, just a second too late posting....again. [ September 07, 2002, 11:30 PM: Message edited by: Barticus ]

It's just because the server is so busy guys, I had to refresh a bunch of times before the download worked........at a whopping 5.5 kb/sec. BFC hates us Canucks, I tell ya B [ August 31, 2002, 10:40 PM: Message edited by: Barticus ]

Silent gun awaits Enemy armour attacks Smoke will stain the sky

hehehe No problem Michael, just let me dredge through my old documents and I'll see what I can find. If I don't have it, I can scan it for you tomorrow. Bart

Michael; Didn't I send you a scan of that box already? Bart

In order to prevent possible spoilers, we could just keep track of the number of times we uttered the word 'COOL!' during our first (of many) runs through each of the demo scenarios. B

You know, those Moscow girls really knock me out.</font>

Just lucky, I guess This can only mean that the late-delivery gremlins have exhausted themselves with my shipment of SC and will therefore be unavailable until sometime after September 20th. At least, that's what I keep telling myself. B

It should be on it's way, mine showed up here in Ottawa on Monday.

Losing my last piece of armour, a Jpz IV/70, when it knocked itself out. No incoming fire. No intervening terrain. No enemy infantry within 300m. No hit and/or penetration notification, nothing. All alone on the West side of the map, on a slight rise with an excellent field of fire, he engages an infantry squad at 300m with a single 75mm HE shell, which hits the target, and then the crew promptly bails with no casualties and the vehicle is listed as disabled. Most frustrating! B

Hey guys; I usually hate to resurrect such an old thread, but I'm wondering if any other Canucks have NOT received their copy of SC yet. If there aren't, I guess I'll have to contact MadMatt, if there are, I'll wait another week. Thanks Bart

You're absoultely correct, Tigger would NEVER use a grenade! He prefers land mines ....... bouncing betties of course. B

Grrrrr, :mad: I'm in Ottawa too, but no sign of it yet!

Pardon me Mr. Recon while I think many unpleasant thoughts about you... B PS.

Hmmmmmm, so many things to try......I guess I would start out with platoon sized armour actions in order to see the death clock and vehicular morale in action. From there......who knows. B

AlleyCat the refresh monkey! Order number 77819

OK, I know my memory's bad, but I usually remember these things. Have the Soviet Commisar's been modeled in CMBB? I'm willing to bet this has been covered before, but I'll be.....umm.....durned if I can recall. Bart

Garry; Nice review! Nice bike! B

Ahh yes, once again I post before thinking a bit. My apologies to all the Beta Boys (lucky B*st*rds) Bart

Jochen; I really don't think you have anything to worry about here. My impression, and I could be wrong, is that the only way CDV is involved with CMBB is in DISTRIBUTION. If you have any TECHNICAL issues with the game, then it's the boys at BFC who will be supporting you. At least, that's my understanding. Bart

Very nice review, looks good for Hubert. I do have a question, though, the reviewer refers to "Great work from the guys at Fury Software", I thought Hubert WAS Fury Software, or am I wrong? Secondly, he didn't once refer to the technology research aspects of the game which, for me, is a very important part of the game. In any case, eagerly awaiting release date with plastic in hand. B

Hubert, I'll keep this simple; Thankyou. Thankyou for being a wargamer. Thankyou for producing what I am sure will be a first class wargaming product. Thankyou for taking the time and effort to keep us informed of your progress. Thankyou for valuing our input AS wargamers. I eagerly (and yet, calmly) await the impending announcement for the release of Strategic Command, and have my hard-earned cash ready to go. Thanks for your time, Bart

Ummm, you aren't related to Mace by any chance, are you?
