Yskonyn Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 After a lame day at an exchange I got home quite tired, which you get by actually not doing anything all day except for playing with your big toe... I went upstairs, opened the door to my bedroom and was surprised by a package laying on my bed! I opened it and as joy filled my whole being I peeked inside... YAY! Battlefront's package has arrived! Quite soon I'd might add, only 7 days after my order was placed WITH books. So here I am, fully loaded for some serious CM play with: -CMBB -CMAK -CMBB Strategy Guide -CMAK Companion Just had to tell you guys this! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spartan1 Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 Welcome to the CM world the most advanced game of its type. We salute you in our community. A little piece of advice. Search the forums for any detailed info you want on tactics and strategy. I could propose to you to start reading on using artillery, engineers infantry and tanks - in that order. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murphus Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 Welcome... Check the Tips & Tricks forum on this site for some ideas on the above. I suggest learning how to use tanks first, they are the trickiest. When you feel you know what you're doing, contact us for a PBEM. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyD Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 Just out of curiosity, since you just got the disk today would your new CMAK be v1.01 or the brand-new 1.02 patch? Should say in the far corner of the splash screen. If it's 1.01 then you're about to be introduced to another joy of the CM community... downloading patches from the web!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philippe Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 [Vergil tugs frantically at Yskonyn's toga and whispers in his ear]: Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes.

Michael Emrys Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 What the hell kind of name is Yskonyn anyway? Are you a space alien, perchance? Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yskonyn Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 That my little friend, is something I'd rather not say, as I would be forced to kill you, or more correct, have someone kill you. You might want to check any dictionaries to run down my name... That is... if you can read, of course. Might be that you usually have someone read you these forums and you tell him/her what to write down, if your answers are truely yours to begin with. Will have to check that on my SuperGorku2000... oops, told you too much and you know what that means, right? BTW I am curious how you guys pronounce 'Yskonyn'. Anyone dares to write down a phonetic version? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
