Yeah no CMBN this morning....so.... anyone else watch the wedding
? I was only watching for the military parade and flyby honest....What wedding?
-
I had an email form BFC in my box....the monthly news letter.
-
53 - closer to 54. I've wargaming since playing with little green army men while watching Combat with dad in 1962.
I've been waiting for CMBN to be released ever since.

I just lost a Sherman in a built up area to a Panzerfaust not positioned in a building. I don't even know where the bloody thing came from. Speaking on behalf of my burned up crew... we're not impressed by the argument that Panzerfausts are useless in built up areas.

We only get to read about it.

Why would it be more important in Market Garden?
If you are talking about the street fighting in Arnhem then it wouldn't matter would it as t\it would be the para's using the PIAT which has no back blast.
Of course then elevation becomes a problem because you cannot aim the PIAT "downhill" as the bomb will fall out.
Serious design flaw if the bomb falls out. Imagine moving to a new location taking some rifle fire, diving for the ditch, and the bomb fell out.
"Fire the bloody thing, he's in range."
"Can't do it sir, the ruddy bomb fell out back there on the road."
If you lived thru it, your next vacation would be to visit a PIAT factory, find the nearest design engineer and relocate his gonads.

EOS works fine

Gotcha!.........
Great...Just freakin' Great

Error on page 122. Dead Cows are missing.

Beats hell out of me.
Michael
that can be arranged

I think if they really knew when it was going to be ready they would tell us. I'm willing to wait another week for them to get the landing craft and flamethrowers working perfectly.
We will even wait another 2 weeks for Bren Gun Tripods.

Optimal release time: 15:25 Pacific Time on 5 May 2011.
5 minutes before end of shift on a 3 day weekend. I could tell my boss I'm taking Monday off and have 4 days to get acquainted with the game.

EOS, Free Cell, and Mine Sweeper

There are scenarios that are historically accurate where one side over powers the other very easily. Just as it happened in real life.
Failure?? Not much fun, but it's just what the designer ordered.
Gamey scenarios with mass quantities of flame spitters (I know none yet in CMBN). These can be really goofy but loads of fun.
Failure: The true grog wouldn't even down load a battle like this.
The answer is: whatever you like or don't like.

Don't use the underscore key. Just use <Shift> <dash> instead.

Could I join Terry Jones church instead?
-
They both run full screen. I doubt they can each use a screen separately. Aren't both screens part of the desktop?
You are correct. <ALT><Tab> is the solution on a single monitor.
-
I planned hooking up my old CRT monitor as a second screen. Opening CMBO and CMBN to translate the oldies favorite scenarios to the new system. I hope my machine can run CMBO and CMBN at the same time...Where the heck is that CMBO disk?
-
I think it would depend on several factors.
a. When the ships ran out of bullets
b. When the troops advanced out of range.
c. When the generals figured enough army artillery was on the beaches.
Delete item c, you can never have too much arty support
A quick Wiki search on the USS Texas said out of range on 15 June. But they returned for Cherbourg 25 June.

... Maybe even an X-rated version.

And this will include Agent X flying to Planet on X on an X-15. The main weapon will X-ray blaster. The main opponent will be the forces of Racer X.
All communication will be via XM radio. Forget the last, that's a commercial link. I'm trying to be Sirius here.

The game is just a representation of a real life event. When you are sitting in front of your computer trying to get in to the spirit of the battle just close your eyes and imagine there following scenario:
- Steve, Charles and all the BFC folks, sitting around a table or in front of their computers using a virtual meeting program, discussing the penetration values of a Sherman 75 on the lower hull armor of a panzer MK IV at 800 yards.
- Then imagine the artist using photoshop adjusting the color values to get a shadow affect under the gun as the turret slews.
- Then think about all those little 1s and 0s travelling across the room via WiFi to your computer to form a PBEM turn.
When viewed at this level you can fully comprehend how CMBN is only a representation of real life.

Very Good Sir. Carry On.

14 to 21 Days. That's around May 4 - 11... Perhaps 6 June is still a possibility.

No melee included.
