Contribute! Join one of the teams working on updates and improvements. Get invloved with the future of SP:WaW, instead of just sitting back and whinning about how disappointed you are.<e>[/QUOTE]</e></QUOTE ...

<t>Ok... I am eternally grateful to all those people responsible of creating SPWAW and MC's, but that does not mean they shouldn't be criticised. Five months late is five months late is five months late and I'm not going to pass that by with just shrug of shoulders.<br/>

Now, it better be da*n ...

November, wow! That's only five months after the original ETA. I mean not even half year... Well done!

Some people have been wondering since May... Perhaps next year.

ETA has been "just two weeks" or "30 days" away since June.

IMO, Matrixgames has handled this whole v8.0 thing very badly and I am extremely dissappointed.

How much longer do we need to wait? Days, weeks, months?

Marines should be thankful - Japs would have killed them much earlier if the rain had not slowed things down...

Two more burning M4's (one just can't avoid killing them... Not even with Japanese tanks) and dozens of dead raiders and paratroopers.

<r>Supported by artillery, Japanese troops keep advancing, killing everyone foolish enough to stand in their way. <E>:D</E> North is as good as mine and there's a huge push for the central vhexes also. We'll see if the Amis can do anything about it...<br/>
<br/>
It seems like a stalemate in the ...

Two M4's wrecked by assaults, one in the center, other in the south (finally some success there).

There seems to be considerable amount of paratroopers near the central vhexes... Now fewer than before, though.

Burning M4, scorched marines and great balls of fire in the north as my SS Engineer Tanks keep rolling forwards.

Some progress were made in the center also. Hopefully this will give a boost to those fighting in the south... It's looking rather grim down there.

Killed some raiders and a machine-gun. Also tried to destroy an M4 but only managed to cause some minor damage.

There's are some major fires in the jungle, so breathing is getting difficult and therefore troops are gaining suppression even without being fired at by the enemy...

Things are getting interesting in the center as paratroopers and flamethrower squads are being pushed back by the Japs.

Elsewhere quiet.

Killed that turretless immobilized M4 in the north. That plus some random shooting here and there.

<r>Hmmm... Trouble brewing in south. Three M4's spotted there. Tried to engage them with an improved Chi-Ha with no good results. <E>:(</E><br/>
<br/>
Some fighting near center as two Para squads are driven back to the woods. Meanwhile flametanks keep things hot for the marines up north.<br/>
<br ...

<r>Two M4's destroyed by the Emperor's finest warriors: one got blasted by 47mm AT-gun, other one took a little swim when bridge under it's tracks was blown away by a 105mm shell. <E>:cool:</E><br/>
But sadly, one Shinhoto Chi-Ha was destroyed by (lucky) American artillery.<br/>
<br/>
Also killed ...

<r>We've been moving all the time but it takes some time thanks to the weather...<br/>
<br/>
Japs get some payback killing a recon squad and a bazooka team. In the north Raiders are being barbequed by SS Eng. tank. <br/>
<br/>
Maybe it was that sweet scent of burning enemies (or a misclick <E>;)</E ...

Don't worry, I'll be flying a Soviet banner as soon as Paddington (or anyone else) gets it done.

And yes, I'm your standard pot-smoking commie-hippie. :p

Shift+*

I guess that works only during the deployment...

Dying is recon's job, that's what they do for, ehm, living. And there's no greater honor than sacrificing one's life for the Emperor! :p

Heavy bombardments by the Americans just keep going on and on...

Now this is getting interesting. It seems that the marines are really pushing for the central vhexes, I counted 10 75mm packs and 5 81mm mortars bombarding that area.

Up north Japanese AT-gun managed to castrate an approaching M4.
