We have met the slings and arrows of Mother Nature and emerge triumphant, proud, and highly intoxicated. :cool: Bring on Ivan! I have slaughtered them by the hundreds on the plains of the Russian steppes. :mad: :mad: :mad: Of this I vow, no pure water for Ivan. :mad: :mad: :mad: Gotta go, the water is bubbling, that means it's ready. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soddball Posted September 9, 2004 Share Posted September 9, 2004 Just to warn the playtesters on that campaign that the map has some incomplete patches (but nothing that will affect the first 3 or 4 battles) and the reinforcements stop coming after 3 battles - so only play the first 3, cos it ain't finished. I just want to know, primarily, if it is actually playable. It's 15 battles of 45 minutes apiece, on an 8km x 4km map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other news ... busy Axe is, of course, a maggot :mad: And Dave is about to find out what Tigers can do to massed Shermans attacking brave Krauts hiding in foxholes :mad: Teddy Edited to add: I've managed to persuade a chum to convert Road To Moscow to CMAK. The map looks as gorgeous as it ever did and we're looking forward to replaying it without one of us having to suffer as the Russkies.

Right off the bat, my system is jumping a bit - with trees off. I'll have to see how long the turns take. :mad: :mad: It does look interesting though, and the map is a objet d'art.

Soddball Posted September 9, 2004 Share Posted September 9, 2004 Try reducing the horizon to 1.5km or 2km - I did that and was able to keep the trees on, even on my pikey 850 Athlon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snarker Posted September 9, 2004 Author Share Posted September 9, 2004 Ugh. From the It <font size=5>really </font>sucks to be you files: Wed Sep 8, 7:55 AM ET THE HAGUE (Reuters) - A Dutch driver was covered in hundreds of liters of manure when a tank burst on a lorry carrying fertilizer, police said on Tuesday. "It was a nice night ... so he probably opened his window when he stopped at a traffic light, and then -- (it) happened," said Dana Kragten, spokeswoman for police in rural Drenthe province. "The tank had a small window which burst, probably due to pressure ... The man said he had no time to back away his car or close his window." Police said the man, whose car was sprayed with an estimated 1,700 liters (370 gallons) of liquid manure, escaped injury though his car had to be towed away.

Some neighbors septic pumps can't keep up with the ground water infiltration and gave up the ghost. I figured out a way to never have to worry about things like this again.
