  1. I've been married to a Norwegian-Scot for 32 years. I'm not arguing with either of you, lol
  2. CMAK 1940 I used number 1 wihout the girls and pasted the cross over the star, then cut and filled the B to B line. Looks good to me. Number 4 could be used for Sealion IMO.
  3. Panther Commander, at TPG Mad Russian, same guy that has been posting about Warmonger and family.
  4. Thanks I solved my portrait problem with Michael Dorosh's ASL portrait mod.
  5. My wife is from Glen Ellen. "Not quite sure I understand the repetitive history remark, but I think I agree." Some people (not me) think Bush made up an excuse to invade Iraq. The next states rights battle will be over medical cannibus. Alaska wants to totally legalise it.
  6. I have copied and pasted the main text from Joel, JonS, and Dandelion to the France section of the CMAKdb. Am I the only one interested in modding the French troops for May 1940 ? Proper portraits, flags, icons, armour, uniforms.
  7. KA You mean the War of Northern Aggression? To remove States rights? With slavery as an excuse. Does history repeat itself? BTW I was born and raised in the North.
  8. Take a look at this page The Auxiliary Units or British Resistance Organisation Of World War 2 - 1940-1944 Formed in May 1940 after the fall of France as an underground type unit. The home guard was in place. They had IIRC Brit, French and Polish troops from the Dunkirk evac. plus whatever US and Canadian volunteers. You may be correct that the stand would have been made at London and losses there would have decimated the army. ------ "Sorry, I seem to keep wrecking your "America intervenes in 1940" scenario ideas" How about a chance to avenge 1918 and teach those obnoxious, arrogant Yanks a lesson. Beat them up and send them packing. The North Americans can come back after things go badly in Russia.
  9. Take a look at this page The Auxiliary Units or British Resistance Organisation Of World War 2 - 1940-1944 I made arms with the patch on them and then realised that this was an underground type unit.
  10. I like the greenish uniforms in number one. I see enough horse's rears all day to not want number 3. I hadn't noticed the roofs.
  11. Well BFC, one month and no posts. I have 6 installs patched to 1.03 and no software problems yet. You must have done a good job.
  12. "Sorry, I seem to keep wrecking your "America intervenes in 1940" scenario ideas. Why not have Hitler "step across the line" in Greenland, Bermuda or the West Indies? " Not at all, I enjoy the debate. South Afrikan uniforms look like the police in the Bahamas IIRC. Lets not get started on South American scenarios yet. PCP was looking for someone to make an Amazon jungle Nazi base camp map.
  13. Thanks Phillipe, I may mod the first or third one for my CMAK 1940 install. They look enough like France and southern England for me
  14. Similar topic at Axis History Forum What Ifs Gibraltar invasion 1941. Another thought for the "couldn't happen" crowd, scenarios where the Brits drive the Germans back to the beaches. Sort of a reverse Normandy. The map and idea from "Raid on Tileste" at TSD could be done to represent one of the smaller islands of the UK with an Axis attack.
  15. I have posted other places of my theory that CM has two kinds of players separated by an age gap. The board game generation and the video generation. The first enjoys the setup and tactics. The second wants to know if they won.
  16. My wife's father's family is from Tillicoultry His father got senile and used to tell the women to hide their children from the Boers behind those trees. Robert the Bruce is in the family somewhere. ----- "Would British forces overseas have behaved differently from French or Dutch forces overseas? " For the Dutch, it was over before they could do anything. After the French gave in, their ships became Allied targets. If the Brits and Allies could maintain a command structure, and control the seas, they could have transfered troops from other theatres. Add in the US and Canadians and you would have a force to deal with. I hope.
  17. Will they all play the same with different armies and terrain? Or will the equipment and experience vary the outcomes? IOW, do I play them all?
  18. I posted your question to the author over at TPG. He answered this morning that it didn't work out and he doesn't have a copy of the original. Sorry.
  19. Are my family photos on the internet ?
  20. Philippe When you are done, I could use a set of French portaits for CMAK 1940. The stock ones have US pictures over French flags.
  21. I think you have a problem first with SP2. IIRC there is a Microsoft patch or something because of a spyware/trojan/virus preventing SP2 from working. If you can fix that, the problem may go away.
  22. "March I'll be ready to work on some Dutch scenario's" If you mean CMAK 1940 scenarios in early war, I have a set of Italian green uniforms renumbered for the French that I use for Dutch troops in DEI PTO. "If you're interested in Indo, do visit The Haque in the summer. We have a big big Indo-meeting called Pasar Malam every year. We can have a rendez-vous there and have ourself a nasi goreng with a large cold beer." My wife toured Benelux in the 90's and stayed at one of their sister's house in Amsterdam, then got a railpass. My wife tells me we need to go someday so that I can see it all. The Neighbor and their Dutch friends have lots of stories of the Japanese interment camps and post war DEI.
