I have been playing The proud and few against Nikb as the Japanese and have noticed that my fixed guns and towed guns show only the guns as an icon and not the units crewing them, making the hex look like the crew has been killed. If you click on the hex, they show up on the tool bar as if they are there (which they are) and in great shape. Is this how they are supposed to look in 2D or is it a "glitch" in the game? I am running VISTA by the way (which I like better than XP by the way). I patched it from the HPS website for vista as well. It's playable so no big deal,but haven't seen this before. Thought the powers that be might want to know if this wasn't intended.

As for where's all the players, I usually have a pbm going all the time and visit the forums every time I log on at this club. Squad battles is by far my favorite game series.

This will likely result in mass area firing and my entire platoon lost for nothing. What orders could I have given to prevent this?]]>

Or shall I spend a bit more and get a dual one that reads and writes (burns)?
Are duals more hassle to install and set up than read-only's?
The only reason I can think of for getting a read-and-writer is so I can save screenshots and pics from my hard drive onto CD's, will it be able to do that?
I see some DVD drives say '16X DVD read speed' on the box, is that fast enough or shall I get a faster one?
Are DVD drives easy to fit? I just unscrew the old CD-Rom drive and screw in the DVD drive in its place, right?]]> Shall I get a read-only one?

I need some help. I designed a scn months ago using the old WF v.1.06 but now I'm trying to do the conversion to Matrix CS unsuccessfully. I've loaded and saved every scn file using Matrix editors and the scn does not work.

Any thoughts will be welcome?


Thanks

In Occupied Czechoslovakia...

An uprising in Prague is quelled. German authorities declare martial law in Prague. There are reports of many arrests, shootings and deportations.

In Bucharest..

An offer of mediation made by Romanian King Carol is rejected by both sides.

In Britain...

The cost of living is reported to have risen 2.5 percent in October.

In Finland...

The armed forces are mobilized as the talks over Soviet demands for an exchange of territory break down in acrimony. The Soviets are seeking to protect naval bases at Leningrad and Murmansk from possible attack by demanding cession of strategic Finnish territory and the lease of Finnish ports in exchange for land in the desolate swamps and forests of Karelia. The Finns refuse.]]>

CM:INFECTION!


The Premise:
A fast moving, viral infection of the gut attempts to infect the entire body. I think highly mechanized German troops would best model this.


Defending this attack will be the antibodies of the body, represented by Russian troops. I think some weak local defenses should be preplaced, with strong, highly mobile reinforcements entering through the throat, modeling ingested medication.

The Map:



Paved road: Route from Esophagus to Stomach to Large Intestine.
Dirt Roads: Local Blood Arteries.

Gut: A maze of narrow pathways through an entangled mass of trees.


Organs: Tall Pines define the outline of the Organs, with typical cover liberally placed throughout.


Head: The Main Objective of the infection, with buildings to represent eyes/teeth/nose etc...




I would appreciate any assistance the community can offer in the following vein:
-Where and How should I improve the map?
-How many points should this map support?
-Should players be able to choose any of their forces, or should they all be preplaced/reinforcements?
-Any other suggestions.

I think an interesting way to pair off opponents would be to use their ELO rating, or maybe win/lose ratios to ensure that equally skilled players face off against each other....

Please tell me if your interested in taking part.

Thanks.]]>
