Marcus the smiling leper

I have downloaded a map mod for CEAW which I believe is the mod you are alluding to, and yes it is very well done. You are also correct on both the MWIF counters and the Advanced Tactics counters, with the later I do believe that the info bar makes these a nice change of pace. Aaah, AGW, what to say, what to say. Never have I wanted to embrace a game more and never have I actually tried harder to like a game, but even with the horrible AI, I could never come to grips with the really, really clunky, user-unfriendly interface. My vote for best counters is a toss up between what you have done for SC2 and TOAW 3's. Both are elegant, functional and beautiful. I look forward to any and all of your future work, thank you for your efforts.

Agent Smith, yours is indeed the mod I speak of. Brilliant work, it really is well done. I beg of you to please update for the expansion. Do you have any plans to re-do the horrid, counters for CEAW? I really do not like sprites, but with CEAW I have found I cannot bear to look at those god-awful counters. The good news is for both World In Flames and Advanced Tactics your beautiful work will not be needed as both of those counters appear to be very pleasing to the eyes and with the right amount of information. Again, great mod, keep up the good work.

If I am, I am the only inhabitant! Actually, more like the kind leper in "Papillon"...at least that is how I think of myself...(tongue inserted firmly in cheek)

I absolutely love the Thraw Mod and another unit counter mod (cannot remember who is the creator, sorry) and cannot bear the idea of the expansion rendering these unplayable. Can you tell me if they will be obsolete and need to be updated? Does anyone know of the unit counter mod I am speaking of? Any ideas or information would be most welcome, cheers!

Very good, that was the answer(s) I was looking for and thank both of you for your clear and concise responses. You guys do good work and I am glad that I will be able to continue to support that work in the future. Again, thank you both for your replies, much appreciated.

Could someone at Battlefront tell me if I chose to sell SC2 or trade it in with a third party, what problems, if any, will the buyer have with the game? Will Battlefront cooperate with the buyer in resolving any issues? I would hate to think I paid $70 for this game and have NO ability to sell it if I so desire. Your response will also wiegh on any future purchases I may or may not make with Battlefront. Thank you for any answers you could provide for me.

Maybe the devs or the beta testers could give us their impression of the AI for the single player mode? Or maybe not.

IMHO, the editor itself is worth the price alone. You'll probably get 20+ games that are not WW2 for free because of the editor. WW1, US Civil War, Rome, Greeks, Chinese dynasties, WW2 Pacific, it's endless. Trust and Beleive me when I say that 2 years from now you'll be laughing at having paid a measily 45$ . </font>

The million dollar question is still, will this game be released On Feb. 28th of this year, I don't care how you refer to it? On the 28th of the second month of the year 2006 BCE? Seventeen days from this moment? Please, someone say yes.

Santabear, my man, I have been playin the demo for about six months, and despite the pain of logging every night without the ability to save my game, I have resisted the temptation to buy "SC classic" because I have been waiting for SC2. Are you saying I am waiting in vain? Is the pain of playing without the save feature only a harbinger of the next six months. Me not stupid, me fingers just fast Santa, my man, me a good speller

Deal, and maybe that way, with hordes of money sent in without an official pre ordering confirmed, Battlefront would begin to feel bad for us and send a beta to tide us over until the game is released. Now, that is not only desparate, but foolishley optomistic, no?

Could I maybe just send in money so that I start to get a warm feeling in anticipation of getting the game? Or does that sound too desparate?
