Polish Bruce Lee Posted July 17, 2003 Posted July 17, 2003 Anyone else feel this way? some times i daze of and im at home, infront of a CM game. think of the attackers likely routes. setting up nice lil ambushes, waiting to see t-34's and shermans (CMBO) to fall victim to my tigers. aaahhh. as you can tell i have 2 other posts and reason behind them is i have alot of time to do nothing at work (17, law firm clerck, boring...) but yesterday was my first CM multiplyer battle. i was defending and i one a total victory, 95-15 (points) right now i m thinking about what went wrong (nothing much on that one) and what went right. this game is a curse i say. a splinter in the back of my mind. atleast it makes the day go. is this normal or is this a problem i should look into 0 Quote
Serge Posted July 17, 2003 Posted July 17, 2003 I don't have time to think about CM at work ... too busy drinking coffee with the lads :eek: 0 Quote
Mouse Posted July 17, 2003 Posted July 17, 2003 Bah! Only at the office?!? You're a rank NoOb... Just wait 'till you are driving down the road and start picking out all the good hull-down positions off to the sides where you would lay waste to an armored column. Or walk through your city/town/hamlet, thinking how you would setup a defense, or practice block-busting. Then you will have learned... 0 Quote

Polish Bruce Lee Posted July 17, 2003 Author Posted July 17, 2003 i also had a dream where anytime i had to move, i have to right click myself and then a big blue line appeared where i was to go, and there was a delay to which made everything really annoying... 0 Quote
eichenbaum Posted July 17, 2003 Posted July 17, 2003 Once I had a dream that 3 black cars drove towards my house. Men, dressed in black, walked to my frontdoor. I knew then, that didn't like me anymore. They said ; "You can take the red pill or the blue one..." Eichenbaum 0 Quote
Pyewacket Posted July 17, 2003 Posted July 17, 2003 And when you're on a vacation...maybe at the beach you think about how to get the young family next to you out of their sandy foxhole without being flanked by the Baywatch guy on his fortification. just an advice: don't take the blame on your girlfriend, try to get some ww2 books with you and hope these f****ing holidays are over soon! 0 Quote

von Nev Posted July 17, 2003 Posted July 17, 2003 Here is a good one, my wife was in the same room the other day as I played CMBB surfing the web on her laptop. That night she had dreams of gunfire and explosions . I got a chunckle out of that one. BTW, I am well beyond the stage of looking for good hull down positions and defensive pieces of turf on the way home. I was doing that years ago in when I was in the active duty Marines. Now I just fondly remember the sounds of tank fire when I was in Israel on a firing range (Negev desert) in a M1A1 firing main gun rounds at distant formally Arab owned tank hardware. Awesome. :cool: von Nev (edited for poor spelling.) [ July 17, 2003, 03:48 PM: Message edited by: von Nev ] 0 Quote
Mies Posted July 17, 2003 Posted July 17, 2003 I'm still in my "that is a good hull down position" phase. Started on holiday last year in Schotland where I was amazed about the possibilities of ambushes behind scattered trees and small hills. :eek: Mies 0 Quote
von Paulus Posted July 17, 2003 Posted July 17, 2003 When boring at the college I often imagine fights in it ... or I prepare tactics for my PBEM files (hmmm yup why don't pushing those BT tanks ...) I think 1/2 hour to 2 hours to CM in classroom per day at the college ... am I not ill doctor ? Anyway I feel bad when I come back to the real world with my Mathematics teatcher crying at me ... My friends don't understand why I enjoy this game so much ... but I don't understand why they are fanatics of Warcraft or similar games ... Paulus, catch by the Combat Mission phenomenon ... hope you won't ruin my (I expect) military studies, BFC Guys Paulus 0 Quote
von Paulus Posted July 17, 2003 Posted July 17, 2003 For my part I found a CM player in the city where I go on vacation eheh I'll do some Hot Seats there ... 0 Quote
Pyewacket Posted July 18, 2003 Posted July 18, 2003 @ Eichenbaum nice picture, but obviously I am not the guy. As you can see he holds a Laptop in his left hand and it looks like his wife accepts his hobby because she's carrying the battery. Here's an example of a british amphibious landing on the north coast of Germany (not historical). Ever thought how to push those well trained units back into the sea? 0 Quote
Polish Bruce Lee Posted July 18, 2003 Author Posted July 18, 2003 i know how to push those units back into sea, but i dont think its appropriet (spelling?) for the message board :eek: but anyhow, its friday, and you can see that my post time indicates that im not at work, called in sick...just to play CM....sad 0 Quote
