Any plans for another stratgy guide like that writen by Mark Walker. I brought a set of CM games as a present and found it explained alot of stuff better than I or the manuals could.

The Syians sound the fun side to play. Anything that forces the Americans forward (IE limited time or moves to objectives in the game mechanics) should crank up the challenge factor. But I still like the sound of Syrian side I feel it will be a challenge to get a win. Interesting short on Syrian Miltary. http://www.meib.org/articles/0108_s1.htm

I just put them on. Within 20 seconds my cat ATTACKED THE SCREEN! Shes really FREAKED by them. She really whats to eat the Germans Mr "Pickels" the cat that ate the German Army [ November 20, 2002, 05:36 PM: Message edited by: CaptPigglesbeThe3rd ]

Every knows that the Germans get 1st shot bonus because of Sup'ior Optics! "Dam these Russian Glass's!! I bought STARCRAFT! instead of CMBB!

I was in a shop and overheard some twat saying that he didn't think it was any good because it didn't have any good "Cut scene's" like "Command&Conquer". He was looking at some board games. I suggested "Tiddl'ywinks" and "Ludo". Any ASL players I have shown CMBO & CMBB have purchased a PC next day just to play it. This says it all.

This worked with me on CRC errors with the UK version. http://www.battlefront.com/cgi-bin/bbs/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=8;t=003062 Good luck

OK three people I know including myself have had problems with installing CMBB. Errors with the Uncompressing files. I managed to solve them all by simpl'y changing the speed of the CD/DVD drive to 2x speed on all three machines. Just go to System Icon & change the speed on filing system if u dont know how Its weird but it works..no more CRC errors [ October 13, 2002, 02:28 PM: Message edited by: CaptPigglesbeThe3rd ]

Ok its out in UK. My m8 Dave phoned me this morning. I'll give CDV their due everyones(shopwise) has got it. My day to'morow will be. 1. Set up two machines in Lan mode. 2. Meet Dave/Breakfast/Get two copys. 3. Tell Girl Friend that a Aunt has died. (Fake Daves Boss'es voice to fool his Wife) 4. Two bottles of Vodka&Schnnaps. Oh and a diet of pizza all weekend... its the only thing they can fit under the door

Boiled Water from the River Volga and Wheat Bread if Russian. or Schannps and Auntie Keslers Pound Cake if German. "Stuff the pound cake Look what I found!"

"I am attacking!" "I am defending!" "I am attacking and defending at the same time!" Maximillian Schell. Maybe its a European thing..., maybe the company I keep..., but every ASL convention I've been too some guy get's up and screams this dialog at some point. Spooky thing is we all know were he's coming from. ...................CLASSIC! [ September 11, 2002, 02:59 PM: Message edited by: CaptPigglesbeThe3rd ]

CDV are a business. If they dont ship the goods they will not make money. They want to make money and most sites that sell games online in UK are listing this product in their line up.That means they have ordered it. So it goes beyond saying they will ship it as fast as they can After all they have orders to forefill.

T35..i just wanna see 3 guns firing at once.

Yep I know the Americans had VT. Don't rem' the Germans having it. Just didn't know if or what the Russians and Germans would have in CMBB option wise .

I,m more interested in the effects in woodland. When calling in a barrage fire? Are Airbursts (Mechanical or Powder-Train Timer Fuse) included. Going Prone would have little effect against these and types of shell.Even if your dug in. In shallow trenches, airbursts can be effective; ricochets usually don't have the right angles to penetrate the trenches; and impact fire is ineffective. Or will it all be impact.."Make a Crater" affair?

"AH HA" the Missing "N" Wondered were that went. Just thou it would be great if they were in the order of battle.Hell there looks to be enough there to keep me going. Thanks for the list [ August 21, 2002, 11:18 AM: Message edited by: CaptPigglesbeThe3rd ]

Don't underestimate the crappy Russian Anti-Tank rifle.I've seen Panzer IV's immoblized left right and centre in ASL.If its anything like that it will be a royal pain in the ass PS...Are there any Finns in CMBB? This game has been missing Finnish Ski Troops! [ August 21, 2002, 11:16 AM: Message edited by: CaptPigglesbeThe3rd ]
