has anyone discovered whether these great flags will work with the full game or not?
-
just installed the game. I moved the install .exe file (or whatever its name is) to my desktop and clicked it from there and the game loaded up in about 20 minutes...
refreshing...

Well, you have nams like "Kingston upon Thames" or something...Originally posted by Len:Gosh, don't all these American place names sound so exotic - and I have to make do with Orpington, UK..........

I feel ya buddy. Funny post, though...Originally posted by sitzkrieg:I'll give a hollar from the Midwest...
WHERE'S MY FRIGGIN' GAME!!!
How's that?
Hoping for tomorrow but planning on being disappointed again by the USPS.
The thing I can't figure out is how a town this size (150,000) can't get the game before someone in a much smaller town. It's like it got to the Mississippi and skipped over about 250 miles of the state. Maybe it's the proximity to a larger city like Chicago or Omaha that gets it their quicker. I don't know. Same thing happened when I pre-ordered Strategic Command as well.
Either that or it's like my video card I ordered a couple of weeks ago. Ordered it from a website in NY. It was sent out FexEx 2 day air. Went to NY, then Newark, NJ. Then to Oakland, CA!!! It only missed me by about 1500 miles! Then came all the way back to Memphis, TN to here, Cedar Rapids, IA. Someone explain the logic of that route to me.

Still waiting in Fort Dodge.
The mailman and I will probably go to blows if he dares to show up empty handed!

might this be just due to the EFOW? You lose sight of the tank crew and its depiction i sone of regular infantry and the unit name says CREW? or INFANTRY?Originally posted by Schrullenhaft:The bailed tank crews changing uniforms I haven't seen. Do the crews come out with the standard Feldgrau uniforms or do they change at some point from the black tanker uniforms to the Feldgrau ones ? Do the tank crews look like normal infantry or is this just something wrong with the color ?
sorry if that is confusing

When will I get mine?
-
That would be a great idea. I also did not realize as many people in Iowa come to this forum...Originally posted by fortsumpter:Holy cow! I can't believe I see this. Six or seven other people from the great state of Iowa love the game. I live near Ames, and didn't figure anyone else would be around.
I haven't ordered yet (family's food and home first I guess) but later on we'll have to have a get together!
let me know if anything is ever set up...

Lucky bastard!Originally posted by haplo:Got it just now in Des Moines, IA!
enjoy, hopefully mine comes tomorrow...
-
nothing today in Ft. Dodge, IA.
If Madison got it today, I would imagine that I would get it tomorrow.
Des Moines might get it today, though...
-
nothing in my mail in North Central Iowa.
I did not notice another shipping option, or I would have chosen next day!
-
Being in Des Moines, I would imagine that you might get it today. Mine probably left Des Moines today or has arrived in Des Moines this morning.Originally posted by favreking:Perhaps the god will look kindly upon me and grace CMBB in my mailbox this afternoon. If not, I will just have to be satisfied with watching "Stalingrad", "Enemy at the gates", "Cross of Iron", "Glitter"....whoops
If it is not here tomorrow, I will do something drastic, like wait another damn day and keep saying to myself "you've come this far. a few more hours will not hurt."

Mailman came at my home in Fort Dodge, IA.
I was waiting atthe mailbox, as I had just got home.
Mailman pulled up, before he could finish saying "hi" I said:
"you got it for me?"
"got what?"
"a computer game (understatement, I know, but I am talking to normal folks) should be in a box or shipping envelope."
"nope."
"damn.... you'd better have it tomorrow."
mailman laughs and parts with a "good luck."

how could somehting like this possibly get through testing?Originally posted by ParaBellum:I think I've found a bug concerning PBEM play.
I just started a PBEM with Andreas. I recieved the setup file (...1.txt), bought my troops and sent back the file (...2.txt). He sent me the next file (...3.txt) but I by mistake opened the wrong file, the one I sent to him (...2.txt). I didn't notice it and entered MY password and was pretty confused to see russian forces instead of my german ones.
I thought maybe we had chosen the SAME password, so I quit, loaded the file again and when prompted for the PW I just hit 'enter'. Again it worked, showing me all his forces.
I think this is a serious bug that should be fixed immediatly since it enables cheating.
blows my mind...

we ship small packages oftern, and we used to use the USPS, but then we got a call from FedEx and the deal was real sweet. We pay a little less to FedEx than we did USPS and the service ismore reliable. Plus no spending extra money for a tracking number...

Yep, and I'll be up all night watching it. Good thing I don't have to work for next 2 days, well unless I am called in. I have some type of stomach virus or flu. Been puking for 2 days now.Originally posted by Shatter:</font><blockquote>quote:</font><hr />Originally posted by V:

I'm too proud to beg, Madmatt...
thanks, I figured it was something like that...
-
who gets it Saturday?
Can it keepme from the Florida - Tennessee game if it does?
If anyone gets it tomorrow, do not hesitate to let us know.
You may then load the game right afterward.

I noticed in a PBEM of Yelnia on the demo that you have the option to issue a "cover arc" command to captured units.
I did this to a captured German crew.
Is there any reason for this at all?
