A splash screen that features a detail of Ken Smith's painting Prelude To Alamein(It was the cover of Journal 5 for you ASL players).Preview The real image is a lot clearer. Get it at the usual place here. [ June 07, 2004, 07:08 AM: Message edited by: Pinetree ]

LOL!!Thats exactly what mine does.He also likes to swat at the figures on the screen.

Ex-RFCS,Will be joining HB Coy as soon as I get a couple of ops done.So maybe in 2 years! (Damn public health service).

You've really got no worries,mine arrived here in NZ safe and sound.And if,by bad luck,it gets lost in the mail, BFC will send you another one for free.

Things haven't changed much in 60 years then,thats what we're still taught today(although it's a C9 not a bren)

Yep I meant 2).Real-time would be nice tho' but thats just chrome.

Back OT: contour lines would be cool and real-time shading would be nice.Even if just for the cosmetics.

Damn straight.CM is just a brilliant computerized table-top wargame,nothing else.Some people take it WAAAYY too seriously.Perhaps they need to get out more.

Capt.Charlie Upham,the only combat soldier to win the VC twice.

Mussolini. Pitiful really.

dont u know youre not really a member here until seanachai or 1 of the pengers gives you a roasting.also notice how he doesnt have to swear while hes doing it.

Here's something sick,how about a gore mod?Have bits of bodies lying around and if a vehicle's a flamer have couple of crispy critters.

I have the same problems as well.Something to do with IE.click on "previous page" and you should get the new ones.

I'm not being nasty,but could you please use proper punctuation and start your sentences with capitals?It would make you so much easier to read. [ April 11, 2004, 01:01 AM: Message edited by: Pinetree ]

I think the one from Far Cry

Ye gods,now you've put Dionne Warwick in my head!

Thats the whole point of this thread,as just about everyone plays with FOW.How about you stop trolling?

Not necessarily. As I recall, there was a Scottish commander of Commandos (forget his name at the moment) who always went into battle swinging one. The original kind of course: a BIG basket hilt sword. Michael </font>

I pre-ordered mine before it was released so I can't really tell you,however when I ordered Tacops from Battlefront,it took about 2 weeks.

I ordered mine thru Battlefront and it arrived here in NZ safe and sound.India should be OK too.I haven't heard of any one's copy getting lost.

Hopefully we'll also be able to capture and then use enemy weapons and vehicles, but perhaps with penalties, á la ASL,

You are right, but there's no easy solution to this problem. Besides, there are crazies extant who want even more information, i.e., to be able to check LOS from points on the map where they don't even have units yet! Go figure... Michael </font>

I wish you would've peaked the week BEFORE you played the All Blacks.

I was there for Anzac Day '99.As i walked up Shrapnel Valley and onto Quinn's Post,I felt nothing but awe for the original Anzacs.At the piss-up afterwards at the Vegemite Bar in Eceabat I felt a certain closeness with you bloody aussies as well(esp. a certain brunette from Melbourne, but i digress ).You're all a bunch of alcloholic convicts but good fun to be around. And yers can play a mean game of rugger as well. :cool:

Nope,it was an Aussie boat,OneAustralia or somefink like that,sunk in about 30 seconds flat.A bit scary at the time,rather humourous afterwards. Isn't funny how everytime someone gets our two nationalities mixed up on these forums,the Anzacs are quick to correct the poor fella and even quicker at start hurling insults at each other.
