    Dallas Texas has CMBB WOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

    in Combat Mission Archive #4 (2002)

    Posted

    Had a stroke of genius this morning.

    Since I'm reasonably sure that my copy was lost along with SWMBO's gift, I just ordered another one!

    If I was a pessimist :rolleyes: I'd say that ordering another copy virtually ensures that the one I pre-ordered will arrive today. If indeed it is lost, then I have a copy on the way as soon as possible, and if/when the original shows up I'll have one to give as a gift.

    Dagnabbit, I'm tired of reading about how much fun everyone is having. Yet I cannot look away...

    And the countdown starts anew! smile.gif

    few of us in the USA who preodered and are

    still waiting. Let me from ya! Maybe we can

    channel some effeciency to the USPS before we

    start harassing BFC.

    Bobo

    I hear ya. Testify!!

    The USPS is not on the list of companies I want to do business with right now, for a couple of reasons.

    Unfortunately, they're the only game in town. :(

    Oh well, we did dodge the hurricane bullet here in Texas this week so I can't feel too cursed. Hope the rest of my Gulf Coast bretheren are faring ok.

    Foiled again. ARRRRRGH! :mad:

    This is an outrage! It's a travesty!!

    I demand answers! Where's the accountability?? I want vengeance!!

    It's the single greatest injustice in the history of mankind!!!!!

    What's that? It's not? Oh well, it is a bit annoying then.

    Maybe tomorrow...

    Just got home from job #2, came screetching up to the mailbox, and... and... nuthin'. :mad: Guess that's 1 for 2 in H-Town.

    Just as well, I have homework to do tonight anyhoo. "But Guy," I hear you say, "you had all weekend to do this homework. Why did you put it off when you knew there was a good chance that CMBB would get there today?" Because, ya moron, I was playing CMBO all weekend. Sheesh. :rolleyes:

    And to top it off, my brother in Ohio for whom I ordered a gift copy at the same time as mine just emailed me a setup with message saying "Thanks for the game, hope you haven't played this scenario yet." :(

    Mañana, mañana.

    Disappointed: No PBEM improvements

    Just to be clear, I agree. I also agree with several hundred other "it would be nice" ideas that I seen on this Forum, many of which did in fact get serious considearation for inclusion. And dozens were only officially ruled out in the last phases of development. There is just so much time, and in CMBB's case we spent about a year more than we had planned. There simply wasn't any more time.

    Well, then, sign me up as another whiney BS-er whose main interest is laziness and convenience.

    Would it have been nice to have a PBEM system where you view a turn and plot moves with every file? Yup.

    Is it a big deal? Nope.

    Am I in a position to judge whether this was more important than other potential inclusions, or whether it would have been easy for BTS to implement? Of course not.

    But I agree that it would have been nice.

    Hehe... Good one, Lurk.

    No no no, it takes fire to kill me off, my friend. If you and the rest of the villagers want to light some torches to do the job, may I suggest using one or more of your flaming Stuarts from our current battle. tongue.gif;)

    Hey! Why do you assume there's something wrong with the game? Maybe I'm just the best gosh darn SC player in (its 2-week) history and can shut down the blitzkrieg in no time flat? :D

    (Uh oh, I think I can feel some PBEM game set-up files arriving in my inbox...) ;)

    Seriously, I think it's awfully close to the blitzkrieg tactics.
