That's true, on my MacBook thise screens have a lot of black around them. I do used to it it never occurred to me that it might not be normal! Glad you like it; the iMac has a stellar screen!

Yeah, making a good map, let alone a compelling scenario, is a true labour of love. Well done! -

You've got a fair bit of reading to do to catch up but I hope you enjoy it. This CAAR is wrapping up soon, but I expect that I will do another. -

We're in the home stretch; less than ten panels to go, folks! -

Nice views, Ghostrider. Good screenshots are as much about composition as intriguing subjects. -
John, Thanks for the additional info. It's true that there shouldn't be tracers showing but it does help players see what's going on in a mipch smaller than real life scale. Mortars shouldn't gave tracers either, yet we see their shots too.

For some reason I can't give a +Rep on this post, it won't let me. So I wanted to thank you for it, this is really useful info.

Hey, we're not done with this story yet!! When I was a kid, I remember being excited to see Donald Duck comics. I didn't think superheroes like Spider-Man or Batman were realistic, but a talking duck, why not? LOL I was mad (and still am) about Tintin. The Nam was intriguing to me only because it dealt with another war I'm fascinated by, but I never really got into it that much. -

Wow, thanks very much for the compliments I'm glad the bandaged Warner was noticed. I recall in Tintin someone getting hurt and appearing later with a head bandage; I wanted to give homage to that style of representation. Haha, your idea of character continuity is something I've been thinking about...for a few weeks. I don't have CMFI but Kohlenklau is doing a bang up job of promoting all the WWII CM titles. I do have Red Thunder, so.... What about this? None of this precludes reappearances of Warner, Dietrich and Hirsch in another German-centric CAAR, as well as an armour character not appearing in the current CAAR as neither Kohl nor I have any armour in this tiny battle. I've gotten find of this little bunch. I'd like to show more of the various sides however: Russian (WWII and modern), American - or perhaps Canadian. -
