Christian Knudsen Posted September 2, 2002 Share Posted September 2, 2002 #$%(&**%$%^!!! So I, along with everybody else, have been looking forward to CMBB for a good while now. A few weeks ago, however, this changed. I began to wish that - that - that BTS would release a sub-par product. :eek: This requires some explanation. You see, I am broke. Flat, stinking broke. And I have a seven-month old who is surprisingly hard on the old solvency. Hence my desire to not need to buy CMBB. If it was not so good, I could get my daughter more stuff, like food, et al. It was selfish, I know, but there you go. So yesterday I downloaded the demo, with nothing but sadness in my heart. Either way I'm screwed. The game is either really good, in which case I'm forced to wait, or it's not, in which case I am deprived of the East Front tactical game I've been waiting for ever since I cracked the box on Beyond Valor lo these many years ago. So anyways, the demo is, of course, really, really great. And the full version promises to be even better. And then the mods... Oh to hell with it, I'll starve myself for a while... So when can I preorder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, almost 1 1/2 years ago, I saved up $5 here and $10 there until I had a little stash of about $70. I have never touched this money because its mission is to bring me the best game ever right on time. I wonder if BFC will do overnight shipping for a few extra bucks?

Pvt. Ryan Posted September 2, 2002 Share Posted September 2, 2002 Can't your daughter live on Cheerios and water for a few months? That would allow you to save up for CMBB and maybe a new video card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Knudsen Posted September 3, 2002 Author Share Posted September 3, 2002 Sadly no... I actually proposed a similar plan, but it was vetoed pretty quickly by my wife. Damn you Chad, for your foresight. I bow to your superior intellect, etc. In a further update, I had to blow $30 today to buy a hard-to-find copy of my Regimental History today, so CMBB takes another hit.

imported_argie Posted September 3, 2002 Share Posted September 3, 2002 Bah! That's nothing!! I hope I were CHARGED for CMBB nine months ago!!! Now, CM will cost me 3.6 times more in monetary value, and maybe 4 to 5 times more in REAL value than 9 months ago... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HVAP Posted September 3, 2002 Share Posted September 3, 2002 Dude nothing can stop you, you're on a mission from God, ask for water instead of soda, gather all your change and sort it or find one of those machines that counts it for a cut, you can do it, do you see the light?
