Only 14 days to go! Woohoo! Or 21 days?


Recommended Posts

By my reckoning at least.

Released 4th October, maybe posted on the 4th/5th/7th, spends a few days in posties sack (the UK being such a large country and all).

Can't wait. :D

(Demos' getting a bit tired now, resorting to playing CMBO and reading the spoilers on this board).

Tum ti tum...

NEWS!: Oh no, I've just checked my pre-order and it looks like the ETA has slipped from the 4th to the 11th.

So it's posted on the 11th/12th/14th, spends a few days on posties coffee table...

I'm going to stop typing now...

Yes, and the also tell the world that CM:BB is made by CDV! smile.gif Not a breath about BTS...

Pressing "See more by this manufactor" brings up titles like "Sudden Strike", "Cossacks" and all our favourite ... "Lula"! :D

Just curious, how does such market agreements work? Is CDV entiteled to market CM:BB as "their" game inside their region (i.e. Western Europe), or has Amazon UK blundered here?

First the 20th, then the the 4th and now the 11th!!

One more slip and it will have to be an Easy Jet flight to Sausageland to buy the kraut version. I shall of course pause briefly to chuck a Molotov through the window of CDV's office smile.gif

Now I'll have to start brushing up on my German

Just sent a mail to Amazon UK customer services telling them to link to BTS as well as CDV

Are you sure? i just went and looked but could not find it under either CM2 or CMBB, all that was there was the listing for cmbo?

It is in Amazon.co.uk, the search facility is a bit dodgy that's all:

*edit: Can't seem to link URL. Go to "PC & Video Games" in the search, then try "combat mission". Brings up CMBO and CMBB...

Personally I don't take concrete assurance from online sites, but there does seem to be some consistancy on this one. Personally I prefer to go to a shop and ask them when it's due to be delivered to the shop for release. Unfortunately no shop I've talked to in Den Haag has even heard of CMBB up to now... :-/

I think that the Continent is geting even with you Brits. Something to do with that "Wogs begin in Calais" remark. tongue.gif

Ah, my Mentor, you have followed me here.

Does that mean you like me.....or at least dispise me less.

Great. So not only do we have to try to think of other things to do for three weeks, but now they're singing their Country + Western at us. Careful, we might retaliate with ... BAGPIPES!!! And Chas 'n' Dave...

:D
