Game in Loughborough had it .. but I've not looked in either for a while, so maybe they are sold out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firefly Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 Probably not much help, but Game down here in Kingston seemed to have a new batch a couple of weeks ago, If one of the shops that told you that they couldn't order it was Game, ask why their other shops seem to have no problem . BTW the version in the UK is published by CDV and officially called Combat Mission 2, so if you told them it was CMBB published by Battlefront, that could have confused them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzertruppe Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 Bummer! You can also purchase it here (Battlefront) or "Chips And Bits".com...that is where I bought my. Good luck M8. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duggers Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 It's in every shop in I've been to in Southampton, plenty of copies too. My brother bought it 2nd hand for £12 in a shop in London, is this a record? Is it true about the 3:1 ratio in Nottingham or is this an urban myth? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soddball Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 Amazon have it in stock - and there's a particularly glowing reference by yours truly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Other Means Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 see if you can get the US version. it's got a printed manual & loads faster i believe. also it's not got any of the wimpy censorship we get (i.e. SS units are called WG in the EU version). also, does anybody know what the US front cover looks like? i got the impression it's a cool t34 silouette rather than the cak one we get. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty's Double Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 Don't listen to him, he's just making excuses because he can't face the thought of the colossal waves of TNT I'm going to hurl his way the moment he buys it. He even went to the trouble of moving from Beeston out to Long Eaton because he knew there were no software shops out there.
