Hello,
I purchased CMAK over 15 years ago and played it a lot at the time; however, I have not played it for probably 10-11 years and have been through a few different computers since. I wanted to install and play it again recently but it says all my activations are used. Am I SOL? Thanks

Thanks, Wushuki, that's what I thought. I'm playing the Russians for the first time and wanted to be sure I properly used some of the nuances of the rivers there.

The manual says "Attacker is reduced to 50% offensive power when attacking across a river." Does that mean when the Attacker or the Defender is actually on the river tile?
Thanks,

I agree, I think most of us using PBEM have no trust issues with our long time friends (my usual opponent and I have been playing together since the early 1980s).
Generally I find a single turn in SC2 is quick enough to play out in a single sitting so it's not a problem for me. However one of my great disappointments of SC2 is not being able to play a *multi* player game. So although it would be a lot of work, I'd like to see each nation be able to be played individually by either a human or the AI.
Example: I might play as Italy while my friend plays as USSR, thus potentially not having any direct conflict between our forces yet playing in the same game.
My thoughts exactly on the multi-player, Mithel. It adds a new dimension to the game.

Unfortunately not for PBEM games as this is one of the methods we've long employed to help limit cheating
Thanks, Hubert. It would be cool if the ability to save in PBEM could be a selectable option. A couple of reasons why--
1) The guy I play with has been a gaming opponent for over 30 years and we have no trust issues between us.
2) I usually make my moves during my commute time on a train. As we get later into the game with more unit density and overall strategic considerations, I'm not sure I'd be able to complete a move in one sitting of my commute.
3) We were hoping to play with multiple players per side in the future where say the UK player would make his move, save and send to his teamate playing the US, and then to the Russian, etc. We used to play Clash of Steel that way and it was a lot of fun.
Anyway, I don't know if it would be possible, but it would be nice.
Thanks,

Hello, I have a couple of questions--
1) Is there no way to save a move in progress in a MP (PBEM) game? In other words, does the turn have to be completed in one sitting?
2) Does an HQ with a rating lower than 10 lower a unit's readiness? It would seem so as I read the formula.
Thanks,

Thanks! Hopefully that does the trick.
