I am loathe to reconsider design decisions that have been rendered into code. There are always new possibilities oozing out of the woodwork. This is especially true of computer generated graphics.<br/>

So, I will go back to my ...

Very nice, very nice indeed!

Have you considered talking to the people working on the graphics for War in the Pacific? I know they have hundreds and hundreds of little images of planes and ships that may be of some use if they allow you to use them.

I apologize in advance here, but I am an ex-English major and had to comment. It is "bated breath", which means to breathe shallowly in anticipation. I always picture this as lying hidden in the bushes as an enemy patrol goes by a couple of feet away.

If a slot opens up for a beta tester, I would love to get in (old school WIF player from the version 3 days).

Now don't get me wrong here, I like all the different languages I have worked with. But those guys who are in charge of providing basic program functions for new languages, and documenting them coherently, should be condemmed to at least ...

Pascal is a wonderful language. Delphi is just that much better.<br/>

Yeah, it probably is. I've just never gotten into it ...

Why are graphics so important with a game like WiF? To me, a decent, full and easy to use interface and good game mechanics are far more important.

if yer playing live you might just be better off getting a voice program like ventrillo or skype and discuss the game while playing it. all players can actually be on at the same time, but when private discussion is needed you can kick ...

<t> I never played DOD1, played a little DOD2 and played a lot of DOD3.<br/>
<br/>
DOD3 is great is you don't push it too far. I really like the way it can create a completely different game however, if you drift too far from the historic (by using the option that allows major powers to change ...

<t> How is net play handled? I assume it's as Chris envisaged with everybody online at the same time. If so, then something similar to the virtual whiteboard programs would be handy. A virtual whiteboard that only your team mates could see and that you could pin a section of the map to then draw on ...

We play with most add-ons except Leaders (other than the units) and Convoy (again, other than the units). We also use the units from Patton and America and have played a couple of AiF games (mostly while play testing yet again). We also played an awful lot of DoD while we were play ...

I'm not sure I've actually ever played a game that used victory cities and I played nearly continuously for 15 years. As funny_bunnyy says, just looking at the board usually tells you who won.

<t> My name is John, a 37 year old Software Engineer from Canberra, Australia. I played WiF from about the age of 17 to about 3 years ago when I needed a break. I'm about to pick it up again though as the itch is back and recently got in contact with my old group again (who are still playing).<br ...

<t> Wow! It's amazing to see that development is well and truly underway on this project. I was a part of the early testing way back when Chris Marinacci was working on it. Back then I played WiF about 3 times a week and, seeing as I live in Canberra, often played with Harry himself - which meant I ...
