RE: Which song do you use as ringtone?

I use the Cantina music from first Star Wars movie which was by the great John Williams. Alarm tone is the theme from Game of Thrones.

RE: 2by3 to publish Steel Tigers

<t> Four years with no communication with your target audience is pretty weak and bad optics.<br/> <br/> Like somebody else said, we ain't getting any younger and there aren't a lot of 20-somethings lining up to play these types of games so, like the WW2 generation, we are getting fewer every day.

RE: Which wargame has done it best?

<t> How far can the Unity and Archon engines be developed? Isn't that the limiting factor? Is a new type of engine required to make a quantum leap to the next generation of games? <br/> <br/> I am anxiously waiting for the release of Steel Tigers to see if they can even make a quality WW2 tactical g...

RE: Which wargame has done it best?

Age of Rifles for 19th century

Campaign Series should be included for WW2 tactical. Can't go wrong with TOAW or SP for older games though.

For newer games Advanced Tactics, Flashpoint Campaigns or Field of Glory 2.

RE: A question of violence in media

<t> It really is a subjective topic and I think our age has some role to play also. <br/> <br/> Back in the 70s the horror movies were more about shock value than a straight up gore fest.

RE: The big move to a new computer and Windows 10

I am also about to upgrade and have a laptop spec question.

"8th Generation Intel Core i7-8750H 6-Core Processor (Up to 4.1GHz)" What does it mean 'up to 4.1GHz? Does this mean you have to change the settings on it or buy one with 4.1GHz?

Thanks.

RE: panzer trust

<r> This is the wrong thread for Panzer Corps but the answer to your question is yes. You start with small core force and as the victories pile up your units gain experience and you add to their numbers with new ones.

Please tell me Slitherine has not taken over development of this game.

No kidding! If so, that means the game will be full of bugs and the developer will disappear after release. [:D]

My three favorite TBS are TOAW, Any Total War game and Civ V.

I would just add Panzer Corps to that list but yeah. That's about all I play too.
