  1. I spent the last two weeks of my life moving and without internet. And this godforsaken pit of hell is the second place I come to after I rejoin the modern world. I really need to re-examine my life.
  2. Don't count me out yet, Sir 37mm. Despite my once-a-month turn sending, I am still prepaed to once again use my powers of investigation for the glory of the Peng Challenge Thread. Though I have come to no conclusive... conclusions, I have several leads which I am working on, all of which will surely allow me to make some sort of numbered list in the future. I examined the Why Isn't CM2 listed in "Under Development"? thread for clues as to what the production of CMx2 has to do with this. The questions raised therein about CMx2's production are strangely mirrored when you scroll down and look at the list of all the private forums that we civilians aren't allowed to visit. There's one for Drop Team, one for CMC, and such, but none for CMx2, and none of the secret code-word forums like Aurora that they used to have - just the Skunkworks, which, if I recall correctly, is always up. In reality, I see little evidence that CMx2 is actually in production. It should have been out by now, there's no visible progress being made, anything. The next question after that is, what is BFC doing instead of making CMx2. I do not know the answer yet, but I suspect that it will have great importance for the Peng Challenge Thread.
  3. I, too, win more than 50% of my games, but the casualties get pretty damn high.
  4. What grass mod is that? Seriously, though, if you want to do art with CM, I'd recommend that you get some mods to replace the original artwork. Not to hate on BFC, but the stuff done by MikeyD and the rest of the modding crew is so, so much better. Edit: I guess I should also give the link: http://www.cmmods.com
  5. Good research, stoat, but true bureaucrats hedge their results in dense paragraphs of jargon and numbered lists. Work on that.
  6. You do realize that he is Abbott, right? I mean, the entire RND persona is a joke, intentionally created to mock a stereotype of the dumb American target audience that some said CM:SF was targeted at. You're not actually taking him seriously, are you?
  7. I would make sure that there is an HQ-unit for the on-map mortars to use for spotters. And when you say "SMG section", what exactly do you mean? A squad? I would agree with most of JasonC's suggestions, especially making all the Germans of the same unit type and removing the on-map 45mm guns.
  8. Sigh... duty calls, I suppose. The Justicariate post announcing the creation and membership of the F.I.S.A. committee can be found here, second post from the bottom. Amazingly enough, Sir 37mm's claims may be legitimate. The problem is one of wording. Did the Justicar mean Sir 37mm to represent the foreigners and be Chairman, or did he mean for Boo Radley to both be Chairman and represent the Justicariate? The language (specifically, the meaning of the "and" I italicized) makes this a little unclear. Do we need a new committee to rule on who is the actual Chairman of the F.I.S.A. committee?
  9. I too have requested updates on the Seanachai-rleete-stoat situation, both on April 24th and again on May 11th after a similar information request by Boo Radley. On neither occasion was the requested information provided, to my knowledge. rleete must be held accountable to the power of the F.I.S.A. court, and Seanachai must be, to the degree that an Olde One can be held accountable to anything. However, I feel that awarding the lad to Mace is a poor idea. After all... it's Mace. And though stoat is a bad enough serf to warrant little coddling, throwing him to the Oddstralians is just cruel. There are a few other options available. We could award stoat's squireship to the Justicar himself, to ensure a proper Justicarlicious upbringing for the lad - if the Justicar were willing to accept. The boy could also be made a joint squire of the F.I.S.A. court. Though non-traditional, it is an option. I'm sure that my fellow court members also have ideas.
  10. Why is rednecked dollar's name always italicized with you, Sir 37mm?
  11. I don't remember the link, but someone ran tests, and movement speed actually mattered very, very little in bogging or not. Terrain, PSI, and luck were all far, far more important.
  12. I'm fairly sure the the authorities have stated that the only patches to CM:BB will be those absolutely necessary to make CMC work. That means no corrected armor values and such, and certainly no new units. I understand the "No new units" rule (it would be a pain, I guess), but I really think that there are some serious and simple changes to be made in certain areas, like those mentioned in this thread.
  13. Ahem. I asked the very same question just recently, and received no answer. If we can get the Justicar on board, we will have the full weight and power of the Justicariate working to unconver this mystery. Which is... something, I guess? I've had far too many beers now to undertake the sort of investigation that the Justicariate would consider worthy, but I think that at least a status report is long warranted. And yet another apology to my long-suffering PBEM opponents. You will receive e-mails soon enough.
  14. I once again unleash my super powers of past-Peng Thread research. The only statements on this by rune on this were: Here, about 2/3rds of the way down, we see from rune: With "both of you" being Bugged and NG cavscout. And, a better record of rune's intentions is found here, halfway down, where he says: One can draw what conclusions one will from this, but this was everything on the specific topic of reward distribution.
  15. No email address in the profile and too damned young if you ask me. Go away tin_man ... you bother me ... and you're rusty and have no heart. Joe p.s. So I'm cranky, deal with it. </font>

  18. LtCol West - Thanks for the interesting article!
  19. rleete, weren't you playing Seanachai for stoat's squireship? How's that going?
