  1. I wouldn't get bogged down with mods right at the start. I'd recommend just playing at least a few battles with the default/vanilla install.

    I agree 100% Don't bother your head with the mods yet, just play! There's nothing really essential to be gained from the mods that would affect gameplay as such.

    And welcome BTW!

  2. Okay. So 25 turns later our PBEM-game ends in a minor victory to my buddy. "Minor victory?" I thought. "How the hell was that possible even though I got butchered by Syrians?"

    So a look at the map after the game revield the whole hilarious reason why. Firstly he forgot to occupy terrain objective A. And here's the fun part; he had only two guys left at terrain objective B (Helipad) after my desperate areafiring on the last turn. The pixelguy giving buddy aid to his fallen comrade is indeed outside the terrain objective zone. So close to a major victory...

    My poor PBEM-buddy. I think he's hittin the Koskenkorva bottle pretty hard as I write this...

  3. I know you were joking and I'm sure Tagge or Sergei will correct me if I'm wrong but I believe Finland never considered itself at war with the Western allies.

    Yes, you are both right Sequoia & Rankorian. It just was something that had to be done for the sake of survival. We wished we could have been like Switzerland or Sweden, but once again we got caught in the middle of superpowers at the time.

    On the lighter side, it´s our Independence day today (6.12.1917)! I´m celebrating it with a six-pack of lager while making a CMSF PBEM-map for my PBEM-buddy. Syrian Mech Inf vs. Brit Armoured Infantry, should be fun...

  4. Since they are in PowerPoint format, I know of no way to post them here, but if anyone would like to see them, PM me an e-mail address and I can send them as an attachment.

    Did you know that you can extraxt the photos from all Powerpoint slideshows? I've done it several times with PowerPoint 2003. Just google for instructions how to do it. Here's one way:

  5. Hehe, yeah a true classic IMO, I saw it in the theatre a few times as well. A pretty original idea for a movie too and the predator creature/character is probably one of the best ever created. Or at least one of the most memorable.

    Come to think of it, there are many similarities with the first Alien movie. A never before seen invincible monster that's picking of the team-/crewmembers one by one.

    Even more similarities: they never should have made any sequels...

    PS I'm sorry too akd for the thread hijackin! Great videos!

    Did you think I've forgotten this? Nope. So what shall it be? Some screenshots I hope? Well any bone right now will do just fine... :)

  7. I am just about to move on....one last question....did you use your smoke on turn one, as a pre-planned barrage, or on, say, turn 3?

    The first time it was actually turn 3 and forwards. In the last game it was a pre-planned barrage. I would recomend the latter, it saves a lot of time.
