Don't mention the war! I mentioned it once, but I think I got away with it.

My turns have all gone out, because I am a best camper. Cheery Waffle version 2 is complete, and ready for gaming on. It resolves a number of concerns I had with the previous one and also puts into practice a great many of the recommendations put forward by Nippy (who gets a hero's badge for playtesting). It also includes the names of those members of this forum who put themselves forward for inclusion. If you didn't, and want to be included, let me know. My favourite is Keke - who chose the 'fastest German vehicle' Nice wheels, shame about the lack of firepower. Ice Cold in Avnavodsk has gorn out to Axe2121 but has left without briefings because I am rejigging them. For the allies - attack and kill the enemy. Expect reinforcements. brrr. Cold. For the axis - defend and kill the enemy. Expect reinforcements. brrr. cold. [ July 03, 2003, 06:48 AM: Message edited by: Soddball ]

Nippy vs. Axe2121 (AAR for Cherry Waffles)
Soddball replied to Nippy's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
From my own experiences plus this useful AAR, I will be making some changes to the release version of Cheery Waffles (not Cherry Waffles, Nippy, you nincompoop). These will include: Briefings, obviously; Less foliage to cover the Russkie approach to the ford in the woods - it's all too easy to clobber the Germs but much harder to do the same to Ivan the Red and his pals; A few more flamesque and splodesque reinforcements to bolster fun and frolics in the centre and north/west of the map. :mad: :mad: :mad: -
I just got a turn from Goodale. :mad: I'll be home in 30 minutes to return it, Maggot - so don't go on holiday just yet. I want to be able to boast that I got 2 Goodale turns in one week. :mad: :mad: Who is mould and ant sitting for you whilst you're away? Do they suck at CM:BB as much as you do? Even if they are a quadraplegic, there's a good chance that they will send turns faster than you do. :mad: Maggot.

The Return Of The SEPTIC Cup
Soddball replied to Ex Bellator's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
Our game continues although my turn rate has slowed right down due to work commitments. I seem to be a turn down at the moment, so if Cpt. Pies would be kind enough to resend, I will ship out ASAP. -
Firstly, the bugfix. It's been there since CM:BO and annoys me no end. Let's say you're placing your units, in the scenario editor or before a battle. You 'place' one unit. You then decide to 'move' one unit, so that you can place and rotate it at the same time. When you've placed the unit, it won't let you then rotate it as it does with all other units. Just annoying. A thought I had this morning was the possibility of placing terrain features such as walls and fences in the same way that you place bunkers or barbed wire. Obviously you could only do this in the scenario editor, I'm not saying you should be able to buy walls in the game. It would be brilliant to be able to place walls and fences in this way, and I wondered what the possibility of it was?

CM:AK and beyond: Tank AA MGs
Soddball replied to dalem's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
I remember in Kelly's Heroes that Kelly was on the back of Oddball's tank with the .50 cal. Is that useful? I saw it in a film, so it must be true. -
Vanquish, mong. :mad: So what if they're owned by Ford. I used to work for Ford. It means that I get a discount when, in 2 years time (when it's released), I go shopping for this: Hubba Hubba. 60 Grand's worth of pure automotive heaven - and a beaver magnet to boot. :mad: I'll sell my own PBEM opponents to own it. Incidentally, my game against MasterGoodale has now been running for 6 months and I am trying to decide whether this is the time to call upon The Brood and declare MasterGoodale a No-Turn-Sending-Pus-Monkey. 6 Months for a 40-turn game? WTF!!

Tch. Nonces. Who the hell would spit and curse our very existence if we were in the Opponent Finder forum? That's like going out and buying an Aston Martin Vanquish and then parking it under a tree where birds roost every night. :mad: :mad: :mad: I fought like a bidj for promotion to the main forum. :mad:
