Nothing here for me yet... Calgary, AB. :(

I swear my arsehole postman stays in bed some days; every mailbox in my apartment building was empty today; I can't believe everyone came home early and cleared out their own mail and that I didn't even get a flyer... :mad: I am more concerned because I have ebay purchases - and a few hunny of money orders for sales in the works and not a thing today. He better break his back tomorrow carrying all my mail.... </font>

Michael, without having the CD, how the heck did you manage to compose the CMAK Ortona mission you posted to the Depot?

Bah - a posted OP with no OP...I should have you up on charges for psychological abuse :D

No CMAK here either, which is probably just as well as I've the X-mas concert tomorrow.

A slim package from Vermont was handed over to me this morning (Sat.) down at the post office here in Almonte. CMAK has arrived just in time! I'm home alone and have nothing to do for the rest of the day but check it out. So far very impressed with the graphics - even the pointy top British helmets ;) . The on-disk manual is in colour. The biggest looking of the 3 Canadian battles that come with the game is the Melfa River crossing (Liri Valley).

Great looking Canuck uniforms! Now we need the Ortona operation converted from CMBO.

My sincere wish is that you lads out West and down in the Maritimes are also picking up your packages today.

Well...9'er Domestic (the Wife) informs me that it arrived today! smile.gif

She also said it looks like I owe $5 for duty or somefink...I'll have to have a look see when I get home. Normally, they don't deliver it - and expect you to pay, but rather - you pay first, and then Canada Post gives it to you. Weird...

If I do indeed owe $5 - where others so far have not - Customs will be getting an absolutely virulent letter from me.

Good luck to the rest of you. Don't give up hope - if they can find Winnipeg on their map of Toronto there is hope for everyone else too! ;)

Here's how i got it yesterday here in Quebec City. I went to Compucentre to see if by any chance they had Highway to the Reich. They didn't, but I saw CMAK on the shelf and bought it.

If you feel like a laugh, go to the Usenet WW2 historical forum and check out my AAR of how I twice failed to win the tutorial.

Unlax LBD, my package had a little green sticker that said something about $5 as well, but it was stuck to the package itself, and I wasn't required to pay anything when the postal clerk handed it over. Since I had asked about this before, and was told that custom duties were payable upon receipt, I assume that we ain't paying anything. Perhaps we shouldn't inquire too closely, though, and leave sleeping tariffs lay. ;)

In the meantime - I accidentally stayed up until 4 a.m. playing the fictional Canuck vs. Fallshirmjaeger scenario by Andreas. Riveting play! A very lucky guess when choosing my battle plan led to a lop-sided win, but it could so easily have gone the other way! CMAK was definitely worth the wait.

CMAK on the shelf in Canada

do the boys at BFC world headquarters know about this??

is this normal and correct?

or some twilight zone version of the reality of their online only distribution and purchasing policy in North America?

The same thing happened with CMBB; some CDV versions given to retailers somehow made it over here.

Still no CMAK... although we did get a lot of Christmas cards. :(
