  1. True, and both good ideas! If a score seems inconsistent and a designer wishes the score to be striken from the record (but a review should always stand, as trolling is usually pretty obvious and will weigh against a reviewer) then let it be noted. Perhaps you could have a continuous scoring system for the reviewer. A conglomerate score that represents their reviewing history, much like with ebay's feedback with the number of scenarios reviewed and an agregate score... Hmmm.... or we could just have the 'ENFORCER' to deal with the trolls
  2. Hmmm.... Bless Admiral Keith for all his hard work. The scenario depot is a gold mine. OK, I have one scenario up there. The 2 reviews it has come under historical reviews so for whatever reason '? ?' they don't count..? So for what ever my opinion matters I think an 'improvement' as such, isn't always for the better. I really did like the old system but like Sergei says, a review shouldn't bias your playing choice and navigation is a little easier.
  3. Here's the best pic I can find on the net... Can anyone make it out? It looks like a scene from some sort of Greek Tragedy...
  4. Thanks Sergio, I have all bar one of them, that being the last one. It's a nice shot of the battle damage too, looking along Prinz Albrecht Str. toward Potsdamer Station. Bless Google! The second photo is great isn't it. You can see Anhalter Station in the background and the damage to the building from the last allied air raid on Berlin. To the right of Gestapo HQ is a museum. The photo itself must have been taken from directly above the ruined Air Ministry (destroyed in the same air raid). I'm spcifically interested in the carving in the arch near the roof above the main entrance... Does anyone have any idea what it is of, I can't quite make it out? Cheers, Richie
  5. As posted by Pzman, you need to hit '\' This swaps sides for set up purposes in the editor. You can then group select that nationality.
  6. Hey guys, I really like some help. I'm putting together the third scenario in my Berlin Trilogy, "Gestapo HQ, Berlin". The map is pretty well done but if anyone has any specific 'greater area' information about the MITTE area May, 1945 I'd really like to hear from you. Also I'd like to put together a specific MOD, as in 'Battle For The Reichstag', for the Gestapo Headquarters building itself. I have some poor jpeg images, but I'd really like 'any' detailed imagery of the building itself, that I could get. Thanks guys in advance Richie [edited to make sense :-]
  7. Sweeet! Make it 20 minutes late and you can pick me up on the way through! My Shout!!!
  8. Ooh No! I'm not even married and I wouldn't use that! You get a lot further in life with a gun and a smile than with just a gun...
  9. Interesting the diversity in scores with Wolf in Sheeps Clothing. While draws were made it seems there was a real opportunity to win from either side.
  10. ...Or she'll butcher you to death with a kitchen knife.
  11. *Packs her bags yet again* MD's Mannequin is back in first place ... At least he's consistant... As for Richie , I'm so mailing your wifey that post... :mad: </font>
  12. Go out and buy Advanced Squad Leader. On a Saturday night, spread it out in all it's granduer over your dining room table with the thousand or so cardboard counters, all the rules, with one of the extension packs... say Red Barricades or KGP. The really big maps! Fill your fridge with beer. Invite over some mates who drink and fart and say f-ck, Lots! Fight and argue over the rules all night till three in the morning. Leave 2 cartons of empty beer cans all over the house. Make sure your friends piss all over the toilet floor. Scrunch up some corn chips and scatter liberally over the carpet and insert into her favourite furniture. Go to bed, loudly and snore all night. Get up late and promise to clean it up soon, but you have to write down the position of all the cardboard counters on the map first. All 1342 of them. Asure her that at least she knows where you are at night. Repeat every six weeks! One day, she'll say, "Wouldn't it be easier to play that game on your computer... You know, that CM thingy..." Love is a beautiful thing!
  13. I'd really like to go... travelling 1000 k's to Melbourne from Adelaide is a bummer though... Maybe some other time I guess
  14. Aaaahhh, Sweeeet! Thanks for the fine pics! One day in April 1992 I drove past the entrance and thought... I'm in the UK, I really should stop here. I asked the 3 girls I was travelling with if they'd like to stop and check out some tanks... They just looked at me... 12 years later my missus says, "Sure we coulda stopped. We woulda just picked you up later..." What was it C.S. Lewis said?
  15. EXCELLENT!!!! These will go very well with 'B&T PEIPER'S BRIDGE' & 'B&T WACHT AM RHEIN' , soon to be available at BOOTS & TRACKS Both scenarios deal with Kampfgruppe Peiper at Cheneux and Stoumont. Top Work! Richie
  16. Yeah, but it's usually due to some chilli beans... BTW, JW... my opponent in Murphy's Law seems to have given up. I haven't heard from him in a while now. I'll send you the last movie turn, it's quite an event.
  17. Woo Hoo ! Donation sent and I feel like I just bought some war bonds! Keep up the good work! Richie
  18. It's a bit like an old western... The new pilgrim walks into town, fast on the draw with a belly full of whiskey and an itchy trigger finger. BLaM BlaM BLAM... ...someone always gets shot to hell, even if'n it's for no other reason...
  19. Am I too late, I get, THIS PAGE CAN"T BE DISPLAYED...
  20. I think winning the Battle or Operation should be enough. I would hope that the scenarios you play take you on a roller coaster ride, with all the highs and lows, triumphs and defeats shared of each man, from the brink of despair to the elation of a hard fought victory that you earned only by the heroic deads and the sacrifices made through the lives and blood of your men... ...If you did win of course! Mind you, a little battle hardening through an operation wouldn't hurt!
