I was born in California...What year? ...and still live there.To each his (or, as in your own case, her) own. I was driven out in the late '70s by a flood of ex-New Yorkers looking for new lands to despoil. Too bad they didn't drown while crossing the Hudson. I miss pre-1970 California. It was a pretty nice place once. I guess the Native Americans have an even stronger gripe. Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedy Posted December 10, 2003 Share Posted December 10, 2003 Madmatt when you factor in drinking, having hangovers, drinking to get rid of hangovers, going to the beach on lovely sunny days like today and drinking, perving on all the sexy sheilas at the beach while drinking, going to the cricket and drinking, going to the footy and drinking, shearing.... well you get my drift. With all these demands on our time 12 months is obviously far to short a time to get anything productive done, so we must blame this problem, whatever it is, on managements lack of adequate planning.

To be honest, You didn't have to use the sounds if they were sub-standard. I wouldn't have been upset if the were pulled for that reason.

dugfromthearth Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 since I am from Seattle and therefore have no accent, I feel that I am best qualified to resolve the primary issue raised in this thread: "We Dutchmen,Belgiums, Norwegians,Sweeds(? how do you spell that)Irish,Spanish etc etc are ALWAYS playing with foreign armies." I think we are all agreed that the next Combat Missions should be the 30 Years War or at least the campaigns of Gustavus Adolphus. Combat Missions: The First Adolph?

gibsonm Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Guys and Gals, Well as someone who gave Brian Rock a hand with the voices during his wedding preparations (don't know if our contribution made it or not - read on gentle reader) I hope they were up to scratch. Unfortunately the complimentary copy of the game I received for my efforts is a Windows version so until the Mac version that I've ordered (and paid for) arrives, I can't tell you if our contribution is to blame or not.
