Just recently left a job dealing with armour development. BTW, one of the most fun things you can legally do is driving a MBT on a frozen field. Having a 60+ ton tank in a controlled skid is REALLY impressive .

Well, since I started this post, I guess I'd better give my stats..

38 years old, married for 17 years (wow, been that long?), two kids, a bunch of pets (anyone want a couple of cats? shhh, wife's coming ). I am a Police Corporal (14 years) and served 3 years in the U.S. Army as an MP and K9 handler (didn't like Korea much).

Been playing computer games and wargames in general since I was in high school (damn, was I ever in high school?), including the oldies; Kampgruphen (Not sure of the spelling on that, hmm where is that box?), Computer Ambush, all of the old SSI and SSG games along with others on up to "modern" war games.

[EScurlock]

I'm 36. Married with a dughter age 9. Used to fish my guts out 'till I was sent here to Andrews AFB. Central Alaska spoiled me, and the fishing around here just doesn't do it for me. Now I mostly look forward to civilian life, go to school in anticipation of starting a new career upon military retirement, and anxiously await CM. My dream tactical level WWII wargame.

[Guest Ol' Blood & Guts]

26. HS Class of '91. BA in History from the same school that Dennis Franz and Jenny McCarthy went to. Class of '96.

Had a life changing auto accident in Oct. '98 just days before my 25th B-Day. Broke neck along with spinal injury. Parallized my ass. But luckily it was an in-complete injury. Coming up on 20 months after-the-fact. Been using a walker since last July. But limited use of hands, which sucks. One vertebrae down and my hands would have been fine.

BUT, my out-patient therapy has brought me quite far from having to have a machine to stand me to walking with a cane. But more importantly, I have serious eyes for my therapist. She reminds me of my mother. Which is probably what I need for motivation and such. She's my age, well 8 months older to the day. Same religion.

My previous working career was one of a physical nature. A lot of back-breaking work. My plans are to go back to college this fall and take some computer classes. One on Web Design. Hell, there was no such thing as the World Wide Web when I was in college. I'm going back to be re-trained, I guess. Before I was over-qualified for the pittily-ass jobs and under-qualified for the good jobs.

Besides, as my homepage says in my profile, "http://www.i_dont_know_html_code.com" I need to really learn this web design stuff 'cause I've heard that there is good money in it if you find a good company to work for.

[Guest Germanboy]

31 going on 32, single and a Research Fellow (I got the last decent doctoral scholarship the EU handed out) at Warwick University Business School in the UK. When I am not playing CM I am supposed to write up about environmental management and electricity generation...

Started wargaming with NATO Commander on the C64 in them days. Haven't done it much lately before CM came out. And I was always fascinated by WWII and Great War history.

Armourbuff, I guess you won't be the only one long once the game comes out.

[Guest herbjorn]

Hi

21 years old, currently studying for my Master of Civil Engineering (MCE): computer science degree (2 down, 3 yrs to go) at the Norwegian university of science and technology.

Got hooked on the cm beta demo, but my favourite wargame of all time has to be Harpoon. Eagerly anticipating both the full version of CM and Harpoon4.
