You are quite right NG. No recognition whatsoever. P.S. I am not a Kiwi, but I take no offence at being referred to as one.

Don't worry NG, at his age he is more likely to kick the bucket than to make a hole in it.

Since, it seems, <font color=maroon size=1>CessPooers</font> enjoy making fun of spelling mistakes, perhaps they should check their own? Especially when spelling someone of such great importance as comrade Stalin.

Desprate measures? Is that when a <font color=maroon size=1> CessPool member</font>, having spent an hour trying to figure out which chin it is that itches, due to their laderhosen being pulled up so high that their "thigh-knockers" become chest-nuts, finally gives up and decides to scratch all three?

Great idea, <font color=maroon size=1>Leeo</font> perhaps they can bring a breath of fresh air to this place filled with boredom, which wreaks with the stench of ancient fly manure.

<font color=maroon size=4>Congratulations, SirReal. I wish you well in your endevour to become a model fart.</font>

<font color=blue size=4>That's it, I'm reporting NG to PETA </font>

<font color=#FF0000> What a great idea, perhaps then you'll end this pointless bickering and actually play some CM... </font>

The cracks begin to appear, it seems the only possible new recruit of the CessPool is tiring of this mindless verbal swordfighting :eek: . Stay tuned for the next episode of "The Days of our CessPool"

urefinger, you've got mail.

A lovely guide to scouting Leguir. Your command of Russian swear language is most impressive. I especially liked your liberal translation of the English phrase "Eat sh** and die". Simply superb!

NB: Tankodesantniki, literally means tank mobiletroops. Desant, in Russian, refers to any troops that are dropped off by quick mobile transport. The original desantniki were marines - dropped off by ships. Vozdushnodesnatniki means paratroopers (literally air troops)

OMG that was so bad it was almost funny.

Yep the link is there but it is dead. Thanks anyway though.

No Guts cansnout -correct use of the apostrophe urefinger - I have updated my profile to display my e-mail. And for the rest of ye olde gits, a challenge for your spectacles:

Love that slogan! They would usually also have '3а Cталина!' on the other side

How about providing in game support for user designed purchasing rules for PBEM? I.e. I could design a rule on which units and how many are allowed and when I save the file to send to my PBEM oponnent, the rule is saved in the file itself. v42below

urefinger - if there's room for two annoying n00bs on this page, I will be more than happy to join you. How are you gentlemen !! You are on the way to destruction You have no chance to survive make your time Ä|| Ýøü® cꧧp•º| ®è ßë|•ñg †º µ§ ---Cats

Okay, I've seen warnings to stay away from the Peng threads a few times. What's up with that? BigD </font>

Since I have no intention of posting on this thread in the future, except to make irrelevant coments in order to get rid of my junior member status, I will speak in plain English (at least my version thereof). I appologise for any mistakes I make - English is my second language. You may have heard this quote before (I assume most of you can hear, if even with the help of hearing aids): "Assumption is the mother of all f**k ups". I am not now, nor was I ever a Kiwi/New Zealander/Sheep shagger, or any other term you would use to refer to those born and bred in this wonderful land. New Zealand is my location - surely you old farts, claiming to be esteemed (if even virtual) soldiers can still tell the difference between nationality and location. Generally, as much as I may dislike Australians, I find your humourous abuse of this nation rather offensive, and yes, somewhat amusing. Having read through the old peng threads, I noted that the true Cesspoolers never mocked individuals or groups based on their nationality. Tell me what is it that makes you feel so threatened by the funny talking Australians? Is it that a country, which started out as a colony of convicts, now has a higher, or at least comparable, standard of life to that of the US and UK? Is it that they have become one of the leading sporting nations? I for one think that New Zealanders and Australians deserve far more respect for their actions in WWII than either the US or the UK. They answered the call and joined a war that was not theirs to fight. They fought in the heat of the desert, whilst most of the rest of the Allies picked their arses, sitting safely across the channel (with the exception of the RAF). In any case, I look forward to reading your witty abuse in my spare time.

I've been trying to find the "tank girl" mod on line - but there is only one link and it's dead, would some kind soul let me know where I can get it please?

Sorry, I was wrong. I must have been thinking of the second mod on this page: http://mapage.cybercable.fr/deanco/TC%20quick%20overview.htm It converts health states (rested/ready/tiring/etc.) to a health bar, but not ammo. Funnily enough, the guy who designed the mods on the linked page above was invited to do the interface design for CMBB. As a result, CMBB's interface includes a bar as well as a number to show ammo depletion. v42below [ July 13, 2003, 11:39 PM: Message edited by: v42below ]

IMHO It is because an infantry unit, unlike a vehicle, can have up to 12 different weapons. When individual members of the squad are killed their ammo is lost. Like wise, sometimes units "forage" around for ammo. It would clutter up the screen too much, having ammo displayed for every rifle in a squad. As for "a bar graphic" rather than an abstract number, you can download this as a mod. I'll find the link and post it here soon.

Since none of the Olde Ones have already done so, I would like to remind all of you jolly chaps and chapesses that, rather than posting on this thread, one could often do better by choosing to sod off. With that in mind, ta-ta. v42below
