Not sure that beggars can be choosers !

Eyes and Ears was superb, maybe the best-designed scenario I’ve ever played. All it needs, I think, is an earlier arrival of the ‘lost’ German company. The map is breathtakingly well thought-out, the embankment running down its breadth, the hills on one edge, the road leading over two elevated railway crossings, the fact that you can’t really be quite sure how far the LOS from the road leading into the town extends into the terrain through which the Hounds are approaching…absolutely nerve-wracking! Even though I lost it was a great game vs Mikado, who was kind enough to send a platoon and some Hounds to their doom on ‘my’ side of the railway embankment .

It’s his jovial banter. You think, “wow he’s such a nice guy, he’d never do anything that devious” and WHAM! you’re staring disaster in the face.

Not sure if this could help, but just in case it does: In my (limited) experience, if you switch from vs AI to 2-player (hotseat) mode the 'other' side will stay put.

Dinga asked me to post this: "I’m going to resend the file to Bert (again). This will be the third time I’ve sent it since last week. If you get a chance can you post on the forum for me that my email is working, but explorer isn’t. Also state that I have sent the file twice since last Saturday with no reply and I am sending it again." End quote. On the positive side, Dinga and I finished Bluecoat Surprise. Great scenario!

My game with Dinga will be wound up soon, with a most awe-inspiring defeat of my hapless forces, 2 moves to go, and I know Dinga's game with Bert is way behind schedule. So that's 2 results that are outstanding.

If Bert is right, a short 'sorry, but...' mail from Mikado would have been in order.

Apart from the again topnotch scenarios, neither Jon nor I have heard from Mikado for roughly 10 days now, so we're stuck at a fairly early stage in our respective games vs him. No idea what's happening there.

Re Mikado - same here, resent a file Friday, haven't heard from him for close to a week now.

Well, I always assumed it was the purchase cost of the unit...? Could be wrong though.

As Slysniper already remarked some time back, forget the bean counting and use the best tool for the job in hand !

That must have been an uplifting and educational experience

Ah yes *phew* that's ok then! I really must calm down, if I lose my hair my dog will stop loving me and my wife will leave me (she's already wondering about the colour change that has occurred over the past weeks...) So when do the scenarios go out then?

Good grief! From friend to enemy by the click of Sly's mouse button...! Cool-sounding scenario names btw - but what are bluecoats? Depressed redcoats? The French?? I have to fight Dinga with the French :eek: !?! [ November 29, 2006, 08:22 AM: Message edited by: Walker ]
