I don’t know why they (or we) bother.

Ya know some of these 'cherries' would make okay SSN’s … I say a ‘merger’ (i.e. a Peng takeover) could be to everyone’s (i.e. Pengs) benefit.To be perfectly honest, it's just you. :D :D

If half the posts here are from <font size=1>penguins</font>, it just shows there are some people looking for something a little more cerebral than the usual "Oh yeah?" "Yeah!" "Is not!" "Is to!" self-proclaimed wit of the MBT. Ask your Daddy Boo or your Granddaddy Peng what that means. :D :D

Snarker, don't you think December 28 is just a bit late to deck the halls? Good grief, why not a title about Thanksgiving? :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Actually, I'm prepping for next Christmas. May as well, my local stores had Christmas stuff out just before Hollowe'en this year. :rolleyes: :mad: :mad:

Snarkie-pookums too bad, so sad about that no-turn sending. Here I was frothing at that sackless, no-ice-melting, furin-car driving, no-four-wheeling, limp-wristed jackanapes, Dave H.

Have you suffered, my sweets? Hopefully you converted, you lil heathen you. Turn forthcoming.

Sandpaper & Stick are you back from your journeys to lands afar?

Wallybob, I demand to see more killing of your troops, send me a turn.

I came home to over a foot of snow. I spent the last 45 min digging myself out. The only good things were that the snowblower started on the second pull and that I had very little to shovel. Thank god for Honda.

Expect some VERY DISTURBED turns shortly maggots.

There's good news tonight. It turns out that the friend of a friend owns a Bobcat. 10 minutes with that little beauty and our driveway is completely cleared. I think he ended up clearing driveways for four or five neighbors, too. He made good money, and we regained the use of our cars and garages. Once again unrestrained capitalism prevails in a win-win for everybody. I may have to become a Republican. :D :D

You have a v 1.01 file. As long as it is NOT a movie file, you load it in v1.01 as normal. BEFORE hitting "go" hit the little save button. Quit out of V 1.01 CMAK and now move this file (.cmg file in the "saved folder") into v 1.03 CMAK scenario folder and then open v 1.03. Can I make it ANY freakin' simpler maggot?

I have all ready converted CMAK to v1.03. How do I load the fecking v1.01 version to save that fecking file? It's not like I have a chance to select versions on startup.

Picks up sledgehammer. Strolls over to whingebag Takes a windmall swing at his nuggets. POW!. Wingebag keels over.

Now that I have your attention, there is no other way for YOU to convert a 1.01 turn other than the way I outlined previously.

*Maybe* you could send it along with your password to someone else who has v 1.01. They could fix your little problem. Of course, I doubt that anyone would WANT to help a non-turn sending maggot like yourself. :mad:

Use winrar to get the old exe off the cd. Then rename it "cmak101.exe". Place it in your cmak directory and then click on it ot start the game in the old version. Do the save and open thingy and there you go.

I would recommend against heavy_traffic. Lots of reinforcements just not enough time to drive them over your opponents fleeing troops.

Turns are out....

I won a tactical victory against Axe in a meeting engagement showdown on a map drawn by myself. His allied air support evidently was colorblind and stoopid, knocking out more of his friendlies and providing my krauts with comic relief. He had one camping immobilized sherman that killed aboot 50 of my krauts and several of my clankies. That maggot died on the last turn. Nevertheless, I prevailed! Tactical victory. A CMBB battle next eh??

I am battling Weener and DaveItch in a Rune abomination. It is a meeting engagement with a river running down the center. Two bridges span the river and each have a large flag, enticing someone to either be very bold or very dumb. too early yet as to see who does what....

Pseudo is playing peekaboo in the bocage. He does not have any clankies (that I know of) while I have a gun halftrack and a tiger. He seems to have a lot of Brit infantry that dies. Hopefully, I have enough bullets to oblige him.

Wally and I are playtesting the Sockmuncher Cheery Waffles scenario. Interesting...Lots of carnage all over the map, mostly Wallys. But since I have updated the game to 1.03, I have not heard from the maggot.


And a belated Happy New Year to all maggots. May your TNT prematurely detonate. :mad:

_Axe_
01-02-2005, 02:04 PM
Because you gits are probably too stoopid to find this on your own:

Why no announcements thus far, especially considering how we've done things in the past? Because we start talking about it you guys will (rightly so) expect a constant dialog and updates from us. We're simply not ready for this yet since CMx2 (i.e. the new engine) is in a state that doesn't offer much for us to show or discuss just yet. That will change shortly, but for now we're keeping quiet.

As for a "Big Announcement"... we're closer to that each day, but we'd really like to get a few more things ready before we do. However, do not confuse a lack of an announcement with a lack of a plan. The plan we've been following, in fact, was nailed down as CMBB development was finishing up. Yup... we've known what CMx2 and its first release would look like before you guys even played CMBB or CMAK. We think very far ahead! In fact, we have plans for the next 3 years of releases. And no, we're not going to tell you what those plans are either [Big Grin]

Now, why aren't we spilling the beans? Partly because this sort of thing SHOULD be on a "need to know" basis. We are, after all, a company and it does us no favors to announce stuff to our potential rivals years before we do it. It also gets you guys wound up way too early. Especially if we should switch something around after expectations have been prematurely set. So what you don't know can't hurt!

We understand you guys are all anxious to know, and better yet SEE, what we are doing. The core engine itself is nearly complete and the game design is almost completely hammered out. Things should move rather quickly in the coming months. And when the time is right, you'll be the first people to hear what we have to say and see what we have to show. For now you'll just have to sit and wait a bit longer.

As for a bone... here's a small one:

Rune reminded you guys that we're making the new game code flexible (for us) so we can give you guys more games in a shorter period of time. 6 years of CMx1 development yielded 3 games that were largely the same as each other (same time period, same general theater, same core graphics engine, etc.). 6 years of CMx2 should yield about 8 games with no boundaries on subject matter and fewer limitations on improving the visual/audio elements. The new engine will allow us to do WWII, sci-fi, current, fantasy, Civil War, whatever... and do it without it taking years to release. If one of our releases doesn't float your boat, it is likely that a few months later you'll get something that will.

More importantly, for you guys in particular, is the fact we can do this without compromising game quality. CMx1 gave us 6 years of lessons to incorporate into CMx2... you'd be a fool to think we haven't fully taken advantage of this great opportunity to make CMx2 able to do what CMx1 wasn't.

We're very excited about what CMx2 will do for gaming. Soon we'll be able to show you why.

That's it for now

Kewl, I can give Custer a Sherman, Twilight Zone reference, and change the course of history? How about giving Ak-47s to a company of Confederate troops? There was a book about that and I wanted to read it but forgot about it and now it's lost to the ages. :-(

As for CMAK patch, check the Tech forum. I think that someone else had the same problem. I also had some problems with the patch too. I think that it did not like the path where I had CMAK. I had the folder in a non-standard place (desktop) instead of c:/program files/battlefront/CMAK or whatever the standard path settings are. Anyhoo, despite giving the patch the path on my machine, it did not apply, but it did put a new folder in the CMAK folder (weird). After I deleted this folder, put the CMAK folder in the standard path, and reapplied the patch, everything worked fine. Another possiblity is that your downloaded patch file is corrupt.

Judging from the recent turn, I see you managed to apply the patch. It did not prevent some more of your armor from dying. *snicker*

But don't feel so bad. Mike the Wino lost an armored car, 2 pzivs and perhaps another one gun-damaged or shocked in one turn. The next turn he lost a Wespe like vehicle. He did manage to call a sucessful arty strike on my chaffeured troops. Maggot. :mad:

Turns OUT.

Wine OUT

BEER IN!

Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. Beer is good fud. Beer makes our girlfriends in High School and College want to have sex with us (before throwing up in you or your Dad's car). In wine, there is truth, in beer there is strength, in water, there is disease. (look at Thailand) Beer is recommended by 10 out of 10 brewers in this country. Support the economy, buy BEER. When there is bad weather, do people rush out and buy wine? No! they buy BEER. How do you think those monks who maintained literacy in Europe in the middle ages got by? By brewing and drinking beer! (BTW, the best beer I ever had was from a monastary that has made beer since the 1400s.)Zymurgy is fun!
Wine is for snobby stuck up sticky beaks.
Beer is for the common man. You got more money, but we'll kick your assssssssssss. In fact we'll open up a six-pack of whup-assss. You don't get that with wine.

Ever hear the Johnny Cash version? Too awesome. I have Cash's American Recordings. Excellent. One of my favorites is "The Man Who Couldn't Cry."


There once was a man who just couldn't cry
He hadn't cried for years and for years
Napalmed babies and the movie love story
For instance could not produce tears
As a child he had cried as all children will
Then at some point his tear ducts ran dry
He grew to be a man, the feces hit the fan
Things got bad, but he couldn't cry

His dog was run over, his wife up and left him
And after that he got sacked from his job
Lost his arm in the war, was laughed at by a whore
Ah, but sill not a sniffle or sob

His novel was refused, his movie was panned
And his big Broadway show was a flop

He got sent off to jail; you guessed it, no bail
Oh, but still not a dribble or drop

In jail he was beaten, bullied and buggered
And made to make license plates
Water and bread was all he was fed
But not once did a tear stain his face

Doctors were called in, scientists, too
Theologians were last and practically least

They all agreed sure enough; this was sure no cream puff
But in fact an insensitive beast

He was removed from jail and placed in a place
For the insensitive and the insane
He played lots of chess and made lots of friends
And he wept every time it would rain

Once it rained forty days and it rained forty nights
And he cried and he cried and he cried and he cried

On the forty-first day, he passed away
He just dehydrated and died

Well, he went up to heaven, located his dog
Not only that, but he rejoined his arm
Down below, all the critics, they took it all back
Cancer robbed the whore of her charm

His ex-wife died of stretch marks, his ex-employer went broke
The theologians were finally found out

Right down to the ground, that old jail house burned down
The earth suffered perpetual drought

*sniff* Just beautiful

Snarker is about to be blasted by my hordes of salavating Finns. We're playing Honkaniemi Depot from Der Kessel:


Type: Finnish Probe
Forces: Soviet / Finnish
Date: 26 February 1940
Location: Honkaniemi
Region: Finnland
Weather: Dawn, overcast, snow, frozen
Terrain: Rural, town
Wind: Breeze
Turns: 45+
Play: 2 player or Finns vs AI

Description:
On February 26, 1940, the situation in the Honkaniemi-area had developed into a threatening salient, the commander of the II (Finnish) Corps, Lt. General Öhquist, attached the 3 Jäger battalion and the newly arrived 4th tank company with 13 Vickers tanks to the 23rd division, commanded by Col. Voldemar Oinonen. As the 23rd received these reinforcements, Col. Oinonen decided to destroy the the small salient east of Naykkijärvi. The commander of 3 Jager Battalion, Capt. I. Kunnas, and the commander of the 4./Pans.P, Lt. O. Heinonen, received the order to attack at 2215 hrs.

The original plan was to conduct a counterattack with 6 battalions, 3 artillery battalions and the 4th tank company. After the hurried preparations had begun, the units eligible for attack decreased to 4 battalions, 2 artillery battalions and the tank company. The plan was as follows:

After the JP 3 and the 4./Pans.P, with the help of I/JR 67 have penetrated the enemy line and reached the 1st objective, two battalions (II and III./JR 67) would carry the attack on to the 2nd objective and straighten the line.

On the night of the 25th/26th, the JP 3 was transferred by trucks to Heponotko (the road on the map leads to it, 3 km NE from the Honkaniemi depot) and skied to the starting point, arriving at 0400 hrs. The tank company arrived 30 minutes later, after making a 50 km march. The march in bad conditions, cost the tank company 5 tanks to various reasons, mainly engine failures. Capt. Kunnas divided his tanks into two sections, 6 tanks to support the 2nd and 3rd Jager companies and 2 tanks to support the 1st company securing the left flank. The attack was decided to begin at 0500 hrs, but as the communication link to the artillery failed, it was decided to try again at 0615. As the preliminary bombardment started, some of it fell on the starting points inflicting a total of 30 casualties (dead + wounded), so the attack was postponed again by an hour.

The defending forces were lead elements from the 84th division which, as usual, were supported by T-26 tanks.The Soviet forces were preparing an attack on that same day (started around noon), so the opposition was stronger than expected, since the units that were ordered to attack had taken their positions along the front.The Soviet tanks, that the Finnish 4./PansP faced, were tanks of the 112th tank battalion of the 35th Light Tank Brigade, the brigade being commanded by Col. V.Kashuba.

After a short artillery bombardment by the attached artillery the attack began. The Finns encountered problems right from the start. Only 6 tanks managed to join the attackers, as 2 tanks suffered technical problems. During the battle, the lack of radios was painfully realized (the tanks were purchased from the UK without guns, optics and radios, and some even without the driver's seat, in order to save money). As communications between the individual tanks was impossible, all tanks were acting with their own initiative, according to the original plan. The 4th tank company had a sad day. One of the tanks got stuck in a ditch, and the turret was damaged, later returning back to the starting point of the attack. All the other tanks were lost in the concentrated fire of T-26's and 45 mm AT guns. Only 3 tanks managed to break into soviet positions before they too were destroyed.This time, however, I will change history and slay the Russian Bear in this battle. :mad: :mad: :mad:

My pride and joy was a '76 Ford wagon. Ford bought 'em in 76 to use as fleet taxis. They sold them in '77 when they figured out they used too much gas. Ford had dumped some engines they had not been able to sell into them. The biggest V-8 police interceptor engine made. 460 cubic inch, dual four-barrel carb. The rear end gave out I had gotten one from a junk-yard police cruiser with a faster gear ratio. the thing would suck in air below 40 mph, but if you stomped the gas over 40, the thing would fishtail. I have fond memories from high school of passing a 280Z and a corvette that were drag racing at 2 in the morning in my home town. They both got passed up in the family wagon doing about 130 mph. Regretfully, I was a mo-ron and didn't maintain it. Change the oil? What do you mean?

Life is a bit better here. One Mo-ron student has been caught with a knife in my class, and he was upset because "they" will revoke his probation. Awwwwwwwwwwww. Mo-ron.

I mean look at that - thing - that Axe posted a photo of. It looks like it came from the seventies. No car from the seventies deserves to be admired.1974 Pontiac Grand Ville
Displacement: 455 ci (7,456 cc)
Engine: V8
Transmission: 3-speed automatic
Weight: 4,476 lbs
Top Speed: 124 mph
Horsepower: 250 bhp @ 4,000 rpm
Torque: 370 lb ft @ 2,800 rpm
EPA: 11 mpg

I was two when it made its debut in Detroit.</font>[/QUOTE]Kids, they're so cute when they think they know about something. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :D

Axe, that car is but a shadow of the great era (mid-60's to 1970) of muscle cars. For you children who were no more than the confused thoughts of your eventual parents, let me tell that you'll never see anything like it. Nobody was yet giving the first thought to ecology or pollution. Gasoline had lead added to reduce knocking. The American car manufacturers competed for the youth market with a series of completely overpowered muscle and pony cars. My older brother had a Pontiac GTO that absolutely chugged gas. Of course, it only cost a few cents per gallon. What are the chances we'll ever see another Plymouth 'Cuda or Dodge Challenger with the mighty 426 cubic inch, 425 bhp Hemi engine? It was an exciting time to be a teen, with the girls in miniskirts, the music, the space race, the Vietnam war in the background, American and Soviet fingers on the button, and the new cars! :D :D :D

I received my DVD and CD of "1 Giant Leap" Tuesday. This collage of music literally takes hold of you. The vocals are out of this world, with harmonizing between Michael Stipe, Speech, Neneh Cherry, Asha Bhosle, and an incomparable, spectacular, sensational Revetti Sakalkar (I thought she was pretty good!). Oh, there are just too many others to mention. It's one of the best music purchases I've ever made. :D

And to think that all the poor, ignorant Europeans could produce in the 1960s was the Porsche 911, the Aston Martin DB5, the Ferrari Daytona and the Jaguar E-Type.

The Ford GT40 - now that was a car. Probably IMO one of the few worthwhile constructions the US car industry has ever churned out.

<font size=6 font color=blue>Good Friday Morning!!</font>

How is everyone in Cheery Wafflemania today? Time for some MUSIC!! Here's a little tune entitled "My Culture" by Maxi Jazz and Robbie Williams. Enjoy.

I'm the sum total of my ancestors
I carry their DNA
We are representatives of a long line of people
And we carried them around everywhere
This long line of people
That goes back to the beginning of time
And when we meet, they meet other lines of people
And we say bring together the lines of me

When I look back over the years
At the things that brought tears to my eyes
Papa said we have to be wise to live long lives
Now I recognize what my father said before he dies
Vocalize things I've left unsaid
Left my spirit unfed for too long
I'm coming home to my family
Where I can be strong
Be who I planned to be
Within me, my ancestry
Givin' me continuity
Would it be remiss to continue in this way
Would you rather I quit
Come with the other ****
Making people's hips sway
Lip service I pay, but I'm nervous
I pray for all the mothers who get no sleep
Like a lifeline, I light lines 'cause my compassion is deep
For the people who fashioned me, my soul to keep
And this is who I happen to be
And if I don't see that I'm strong, then I won't be

This is what my Daddy told me
I wished he would hold me
A little more than he did
But he taught me my culture
And how to live positive
I never wanna shame
The blood in my veins and bring pain
To my sweet grandfather's face, in his resting place
I make haste to learn and not waste
Everything my forefathers earned in tears
For my culture

Fall back again
Crawl from the warm water

For my culture

Water to air
You're on your feet again
Your feet again

Hello Dad, remember me?
I'm the man you thought I'd never be
I'm the boy who you reduced to tears
Dad, I'd been lonely for 27 years
Yeah, that's right, my name's Rob
I'm the one who landed the pop stars job
I'm the one who you told, "Look, don't touch"
And the kid who wouldn't amount to much
I believe in the senses out of sound
I have always been too loud
Won't you help me drown it out?
I'm what I feel
And what I'm feeling is surreal
I'm a massive spinnin' wheel, always digging in my heels
Now I got the faith
Fall back again
Crawl from the warm water
Water to air
You're on your feet again
Your feet again

Ha, lace up your booty
Going back to the roots, continue my interlude
Feed freakin' for loot
And my spell's been to check what your future brings is now
And your forefathers further know how
But now, what happened to the world without the hatred
Use your head, if the needle is wise, be the thread
And weave ancestral wisdom, yours by best
Spreading the Lord's word over this broad Earth

This is what my Daddy told me
I wished he would hold me
A little more than he did
But he taught me my culture
And how to live positive
I never wanna shame
The blood in my veins and bring pain
To my sweet grandfather's face, in his resting place
I make haste to learn and not waste
Everything my forefathers earned in tears

For my culture

Fall back again
Crawl from the warm water
Water to air
You're on your feet again
Your feet again

For my culture

Fall back again
Crawl from the warm water
Water to air
You're on your feet again
Your feet again

For my culture

Correct me if I'm wrong, but our AAR match must be with CMAK, no? Jinkies, yes. I only use my CM:BB cd for standing my jugs of molten TNT on nowadays.

Game updates:

I am "fighting" DaveH and Must be Toejam in the Rune bridge abomination. Occasional some arty falls or a tank gets destroyed, but nobody has attempted to cross the bridge into enemy territory. It looks like it will be a war of attrition.

My Kraut forces destroyed Pseudodonkey's troops in a bocage battle. He commanded a company of Brits, a lone sherman firefly, an AT gun and carrier against a Tiger, a gun halftrack, and a half-strength company of infantry. Given what he had, I don't think he had a chance from the start. If he wishes a rematch, he may send it my way.

I am frying Willynilly's krauts with flame-carriers in Sockpuppet's Cheery Waffle scenario. It has been cheery for me, but I'm sure that Wally ain't so cheery.

And last and certainly least there is Axe. I picked a very nice CMBB scenario from the proving grounds. It would make Mastergoodale misty-eyed. TNT, tanks and grunts Oh my! Ask Axe what happens to Kraut tanks leading the way for infantry into a city. I really don't think he liked the last turn. He won't like the ones after that either. :mad:

Aiight Pengers....

I've been silently reading these wack Cheery Waffles threads for at least a year now. They offer me a mixture of entertainment and abhorrence that I cannot find in other wargame threads...and I've looked. Believe me.

But this current fetish involving posting of song lyrics has got to cease. The only song lyrics I want to see are from Generals Patton and McAurthur and maybe a few ballads from Stalin. But none of Mussolini's operatic hard rock. That crap stinks.

So as a Waffles thread stalker, I humbly ask that you guys continue to entertain me with your incessant sarcasm and LAY OFF THE LINER NOTES! Get back to PBEMing each other and tossing TNT-flavord insults.

This silent "fanboi" has spoken. I shall disappear once again.

And I just have CM:BO. And it's not installed at the moment.

As for spending $10 for CMBB, NO alcohol, drugs or wimin ((not even Mike the hoor) can be had at that price and give one that much pleasure. Pick it up. I'm sure that one of the maggots here would love some fresh meat to feast on.

Nessun dorma! Nessun dorma!
Tu pure, o, Principessa,
nella tua fredda stanza,
guardi le stelle
che fremono d'amore
e di speranza.

Ma il mio mistero e chiuso in me,
il nome mio nessun sapra!
No, no, sulla tua bocca lo diro
quando la luce splendera!

Ed il mio bacio sciogliera il silenzio
che ti fa mia!

(Il nome suo nessun sapra!...
e noi dovrem, ahime, morir!)

Dilegua, o notte!
Tramontate, stelle!
Tramontate, stelle!
All'alba vincero!
vincero, vincero!

There you go Waffles, have a little dose of culture. It couldn't hurt. Snarker and Mace, any chance of you letting go of a turn in the next month or two? :rolleyes:

Beer is good but not that good. I have been killing hundreds of them per month now and they just keep showing up on grocery store shelves. I WILL PREVAIL!!!!

Speaking of killings...after the first 200-ish deaths it all becomes kinda pedestrian, doncha tink Wallybob? This scenario is definitely not human vs. human material, therefore the ape-ish Wally is really struggling.

Hairdryer & Pick is getting rune-d.

Merrily, but slowly, moving through a re-match versus Snarker. Don't even remember the name of the scenario but I do believe that we both agreed that the Rolling Stones version of 'Satisfaction' far excedes the not too terrible re-make by Devo.
