Being a 120mm, it was nice of your opponent to allow you to drive up and haul it out!<br/>

Additionally, what scenario was it, I would like ...

RE: Changes in the Game

Just for information, in my PBEM games the Extreme Assault option is turned off as can lead to some peculiar results. A disrupted German 120mm mortar platoon repeatedly repulsed assaults by two full strength US infantry platoons.

RE: Modern Wars: Volume I: Poll 1

<t> I voted for one game. Unless there are significant game-play differences between the two, a single tutorial of the basics should do. And really, it is only the basics you need to teach in this game; the rest is there in the manual. And there's common sense of course...you don't have to be ...

RE: Modern Wars: Volume I: Poll 2

<t> I voted yes, but as long as its not too much work. A video tutorial not only instructs people how to play, but it also allows potential customers a glimpse into the game, what it looks like, how it plays, and the huge fun to be had therein.<br/>

Cologne Tank Battle

<r> An old friend and current PBEM opponent pointed me to this.<br/>

It's rather unsettling to watch, particularly in light of the fate of the poor Sherman commander, but interesting nevertheless<br/>
