  1. At jkobmadrid - no it's not dying for all the reasons Steve said. 4 games, more employees etc,.

    Two other points that were made in the thread go hand in hand. Umlaut talked about the time spent yet zero comments. And Seinfeld Rules talking about the lack of The Proving Grounds type site.

    Comments with some constructive input are very helpful and provide an ego boost to the designers. I probably provided 10-15 reviews back at the Proving Grounds, yet I continuously saw posts there saying "150 downloads and zero comments. WTF guys? Feedback please". Bottomline: The feedback issue is not new.

    Me? I only play QBs against one friend. So I disqualify myself from the lack of feedback complaint.

  2. I recently cheated against my regular PBEM opponent and purchased a plane with guns only. I targeted a small area on turn 2. 8 minutes later 2+ squads were at the exact spot when the strafing began. In 5 seconds 11 casualties.

    More troops arrived at the spot when the guy was making his 2nd pass. LOL I'm loving it. First time I ever used a plane in CMBN.

  3. For about 75% of our total audience, perhaps. As anybody whose frequented these Forums over the last 13 years will know... Eastern Front is my favorite topic, but I'm not blind to the reality that the Western Front is where the sales are at. I bet if we put out an all inclusive 1941-1945 Eastern Front game it would be outsold by a Battle of the Bulge game.

    Christmas Day 1973 when I opened my first war game, Panzer Blitz, my first thought "What is this Russian/German war you speak of?"

    Until that point my only knowledge of the Russian Front was Col. Klink and Sgt Shultz's fear of a transfer there.:D I love the East Front too.

    Can't wait for the battles on the steppe to begin. Patiently buying ETO games in the interim.

  4. Note that the spotter needs to have LOS until Fire For Effect begins. Many things could cause him to lose LOS, smoke, dust, being shot at forcing him to get below some obstruction, etc. But once FFF begins, he might as well wonder off for a cup of coffee.

    or cup of tea if British.:D

    Another few more spotter question

    Can a spotter target for 2 guns at once?

    Can a FO call in airstrike and arty at same time?

  5. Man, when reading this title I thought you were talking about some kinda gay, flower power, '60's "peace for everybody" thing.

    For a moment I had this strange image of tough GI's and battle hardened SS men, hopping along hand in hand.

    These nightshifts are really getting to me..

    Let's all sing Kumbya.:D

  6. I have another question and I realize it is too early for details, but if I understand correctly Bagration will be about the destruction of Army Group Centre. My question is will it include the aftermath of Bagration? With aftermath I mean the defensive battles in the Baltics and Poland. And what can we expect after that?

    Pretty sure with add-on modules Bagration will go all the way to Berlin.

  7. All these discussions on location of the Sun based on seasons. I learnt somefink new recently. A few days ago was the Autumnal Equinox - FYI: the day/night time is not exactly 12:00 and 12:00 on that day. That usually occurs a few days after the Equinox.

    You're smarter now.
