but don't act like he owes us a thing...

What if he actually does owe us something? Like pre-order money? Eh?

I'm sure someone has thought of this, but I hope it will be possible for the AI to take over droppe players, so that a disappearing opponent does not bring the game to a halt.

Thanks, Shannon. That told me basically everything I was looking for. I looked at some screens and thought they looked somewhat familiar. It's good to see that Chris' effort, although unfinished, was not wasted.

Is this a continuation of that development? Or is it starting from scratch?

I'm pretty sure 1-on-1 France v Russia is an automatic win for France?

Computer Gaming World magazine published a three-page AAR of a two-player Crown of Glory game in the latest issue of the magazine.

Yes, the Powsinska one has the more interesting hardware (lots more of it, anyway). Did you stop inside the Katyn exhibit that's indoors?

Is that from the Muzeum Wojska Polskiego on Aleje Jerozolimskie?

Yeah, "sabermetrics" originates with Bill James and is not a Puresim invention. I remember buying my first Baseball Abstract around 1979 or 1980. The term has been around a while.

<t> Well, of course. PBEM replay is such a standard feature in wargames that I simply assumed at first that it was broken, not missing altogether.<br/>

PBEM replay would be great, but I'm not holding my breath. My suspicion is that it would take some serious coding given how the game is now ...

"UK or US PC Gamer, or any of the mags (apart from CGW maybe) aren't going to like this game, methinks."<br/>

That was my post a few weeks ago, and I'm disappointed to be proved right and wrong at the same time. Only 2.5 from CGW ...

Are you saying you've read a review in the current newsstand copy?

Yes. I actually have the CGW review sitting on my desk as I'm a subscriber.

The magazine reviews are appearing now, btw. 3 stars (out of 5) at Computer Games Magazine, 2.5 (out of 5) stars at Computer Gaming World.
