    MasterGoodale's Thread of Cheery Waffles, Maggots, and Lost penguins

    in Combat Mission: Afrika Korps

    Posted

    Well, the festive season is well and truly a dim, distant memory :(

    Still, if any of you maggots want to indulge in a little post-dated seasonal tomfoolery we could always drop by the Peng thread with a few wisecracks about being lesbians trapped in men's bodies :mad:

    Turns out later tonight. Possibly.

    PS I can't believe none of you guys want to help out with the nice request for a CMBB manual pdf.

    Hello Monty,

    I didn't have any problems but I was only using a viewer. Maybe this will help:

    "For Excel users (full version only): The tables will initially show up as being blank. You need to *Select All* and choose a font or font color for the page to make the text visible. I don't know why things don't convert properly between various Microsoft products. :-("

    Cheers,

    Don't tell me you fell for that old line? Beneath that cuddly exterior, Dave is one smoooth operator. He'll love you and he'll leave you, break your heart and deceive you. Because wherever he lays his hat, that's his home :mad:

    Hope all you maggots have a happy New Year,

    Bottoms up,

    Then again, I might just stick with the formula that works.

    Any thoughts?

    I'm not normally a fan of operations (I must have a short attention span or...) but that sounds an intriguing proposition. I don't supose you could reign in your wild and crazy imagination, though, to limit it to a couple of thousand points?

    That sounds like a job for Axe and his new Cray :mad: :mad: :mad:

    Any plans to update Kneiber Dam? That would look marvellous in the middle of the desert during daylight hours ... although I have my doubts about its historical accuracy. Not that it's ever stopped you before :mad: :mad: :mad:

    Game updates after fighting my way off the sofa ...

    Mike and I have finished Line of Defence. He was always going to be in trouble once he'd shot down my CAS before it had taken out half my armour ... the demo can now be uninstalled, but it has given me more entertainment than many games I've paid full price for :mad:

    Snarker is kicking my bottom all over the Po Valley. He is, of course, a maggot :mad:

    Dave and I are still staggering around in a sandstorm, trying to work out if the briefing to Ambush! bears any resemblance to what our poor men are experiencing. It currently looks as though the outcome will be as historically accurate as U-571 :mad:

    Axe has skipped town with his Italians after my lucky start to Clash of Titans. My Brits are at the oasis, splashing around on their lilos, drinking G&Ts and awaiting his return :mad:

    Right, I've still got half a turkey and a few cases of red wine to get through :(

    Teddy

    PS Saw Galaxy Quest yesterday ... Sigourney Weaver is going to be giving me sleepless nights for a while :mad: :mad: :mad:
