Thanks GAJ - the new improvments just add more quality to a great utility.

Could you confirm what the final date for AAR submission is. Thanks.

You can temporarily disable AutoPlay by pressing SHIFT while you insert the CD.

Japanzer : Thanks for the effort

Nice grass.

-I will again reiterate the importance of knowing where you are in terms of games being completed, and your current turn rate. If by this time you have more than 20 turns to go in any one game, and are exchanging one file a day or less, then you will not finish in time unless you make arrangements somehow to increase that rate.-
It may be the wine talking so please excuse me
....I was very happy to get into ROW...and have gone out of my way to get turns back to my opponents as quickly as possible...usually within hours....some of my opponents have warned me of downtimes...no problems....but I am suffering from consistent returns of 2 or 3 days back to me...obviously real life :mad: can impinge....but if I'm making an effort...getting up an hour earlier etc. ....I would hope for the same back as we get to the line. Goodnight! -
Many folks use a "News Aggregator" to track these RSS enabled sites - they let you see if new content is on the site without having to visit it. There are many free News feeder programs - they are a good time saver - do a google search on "News Feeder" to find them.

Derivatives of the word sanguine are sanguinely, sanguineous, sanguinity, sanguineness, and sanguineless.
In addition, there are several related words:

sanguinary: Attended with much bloodshed; bloody; murderous. Bloodthirsty; cruel; eager to shed blood. Derivatives: sanguinarily, sanguinariness.
sanguinolent: Tinged or mingled with blood; bloody. Derivatives: sanguinolency.
ensanguine: To stain or cover with blood; to make bloody, or of a blood-red color; as, an ensanguined line.
exsanguineous: Destitute of blood; anaemic. Bloodless. Derivatives: exsanguine, exsanguinity, exsanguinous, exsanguious.
exsanguinate: To drain blood. Derivatives: exsanguination.
sanguinivorous: Subsisting on blood. Derivatives: sanguinivore.

I will be attempting to include all of the above in my AAR's.

Excellent that will be my word of the day.
Exsanguinate = To drain of blood
I look forward to your AAR's John!

Played this one PBEM as Axis. Great map. Highly enjoyable and a major victory. It's a tough one for the Canadians...smoking Shermans all over the map! My opponent would have liked a few more infantry. He captured the town but got no where near crossing the river.
-
I'll second that - highly recommended scenario for two player. Our game seemd slightly in favour of the axis - but I think that may have been down more to the Allied plan. There are some good Murphy sites on the web that give a great background to this battle - and in my opinion the scenario does a great job.
-
Good scenario - played PBEM as Axis - My allied opponent got carried away with the routing of the Italians early on - all his Shermans came barrelling over the bridge at full speed! Bliss for my paratroops! All the tanks were shortly smoking and after that his infantry could not get across the bridge - Major Victory for the Axis. The Allies seem to have a tough job to get across that bridge!
-
JPS did come back! Nearly finished our game - last message from him was he would be away for a fortnight - should be back next week I think.
-
Yep...great scenario...played PBEM as Brits and it was a hard fought draw...derelict tanks littered the map...recommended.
