Mike, note the time stamps of our posts. Don't recall seeing another tie before. [:D]

Is there enough docking space for the Zuikaku in D.C.?ORIGINAL: Mike Solli
ORIGINAL: USS America
This could be my last day in the office for the year. The forecast calls for 1-3 inches of snow and ice tomorrow morning. Plenty of you would laugh at that, but down here, there is very little equipment to keep the roads safe, so that's enough to cancel school. That, of course, means I need to work from home. [:)]
I'm on vacation Friday, and already planning to work from home next Monday and Tuesday before vacation the rest of the year. Can you tell I'm excited? [:D]
Lucky you. I'm counting down the days. Next Thursday is my last day...... for a month. [:D] I have a week off then head to Virginia for 2 weeks. Home for the weekend and another week in DC. Then I'll have to go back to work. [8|]

Yeah, I aggree Mynok. I'm still on the fence (due to the price) but the Eastern Front is a definite interest of mine. My opponent got it and wants me to get it so we can start a PBEM. My wife would kill me though. I already spend enough time on the computer doing AE turns. I usually spend 2-3 hours per turn. I didn't realize it takes me that long for a turn.
Returning to the Eastern Front would make a nice change of pace for one tired of the at times clumsy land system in WitP/AE. A nice conventional land engine (+ a beautiful map) is an attraction indeed. I tried a couple times to fire up old War in Russia but at this point it was just too old and outdated

It's a small thing, but I think my favourite aspect of WitE is the ability to attach support units to divisions. It's so simple and so obvious, but so brilliant.

I'm with you on this one. We are expecting 2-5" in Richmond. When people ask me why a midwesterner like me won't drive in the snow here, I tell them "It's not the snow. It's the southern drivers trying to drive in snow that I am avoiding."[:D][:D]

Been reading the 'tutorial' thread in the War Room on the WitE forum. Nice looking game. Interface looks well-designed.

Seems we're in the same time span. Time flies away when you're having fun [:D]

They're starting to coordinate their actions. This doesn't bode well for you.
