    Yes a ninja postman comes in the dead of night.

    I've not got mine today either - while everyone else in NZ has (it seems).

    Off topic a bit, but...

    Can you tell me what would happen if you are travelling fast in a tank and slam on the brakes to one track? If that's even possible, would it result in a quicker rate of turn than pivot steering?

    Also, do modern tanks turning on the spot use one track forward and one track in reverse?

    I know nothing about this subject, but it's interesting! It would seem to me that turn rate would be directly related to the difference between the speeds of the two tracks.

    Alas I never beat him. I had to withdraw from our game, which really means 1-0 to him. He was very decent about it, and I'm looking forward to another try.

    KJ - if you need help setting up your ladder let me know, coz I build websites for a living.

  4. Well that is a bug. Not just in EFOW, but in normal FOW too, and in CMBO. I have never seen it posted before, but no doubt it has been there since the first demos all those years ago.

    The idea of displaying all the details you knew about a unit after it has disappeared is still a good one (in RL you would remember). But obviously the info can't update when things happen to the invisible unit.
