Yes you do!

I wish I had kept all of mine. Nice little pieces of memorabilia. I did keep all the manuals, of course, just to see my name in print if nothing else.

I was proud to have been a part of every SP game or variant to come out, at least to one degree or another.

This mother of games is an all time classic. I've yet to see one that will outdo it for versatility, ease of play and fun. Gary G. seems to have broken the mold on this one.

But CL may be the SP4 we never had. I hope so.

Speaking of holidays...

MC-SE is already on my Christmas list (with the caveat that we can open ONE present early ).

Just tell me it's soon Wild Bill, and I'll stop shaking .

I'm pushing hard for this month, Vathailos! I'd really like for all of you to have it available before the end of the year. I think you'll really enjoy it.

So...quit shaking and start anticipating. I'd love to get it out there soon.

I remember in cologne/germany Steel Panthers was shown first time
before the release on a game-publisher-event....this was a great time...
at this time programmers just started to think about AI and real time strategy was still not available...for my taste all later real time titles don`t have the same fascination ... people are blended by grafix but the real deep strategic influence a player can perform is not copied until today!

Wild Bill I think I may have you beat on this. I still have some of the original magazine articles on Steel Panthers! When the game was first reviewed I bought every comp. mag that had a review of the game. Plus I would show it to my wife hoping such a great game would be under the Chirstmas tree. I also have the original boxes including the ones for the expansion disks. Too bad the SP series isn't on the stock market!

I've got you both beat. I wrote one of those articles.

I still had the promo copy of the game, in fact I had promo copies of every title in the SSI inventory, until I lost it all in a fire in '99

Its close now...very close. Get ready!
