A post from a guy who currently doesn't fly CloD

I can't play right now because I don't have the money to buy a machine decent enough to run it, but eventually I will. In the meanwhile I'm enjoying the vids and screenshots provided by all of you who are patient enough with the devs.

McHilt, I would seriously consider building your own comp.

You will save money that way and you will be future proof in pretty much every way.

Look around on retailer websites, see what you can use from your old comp for a start (especially the HDD and your current OS and maybe graphics card ) and get on the road to freedom from premanufactured-computer-ball-and-chain .

What you basically need is a case, motherboard, cpu, memory and optical drive and "reuse" your current HDD and graphics card. You can build your own "semi-supercomp" that you can then later upgrade little by little as needed.

That's actually the plan Nedlynch. I'm really looking forward to do just that, but I have some other things to look after first, like getting my life as a self employed back on track...
I'm confident man.

This sim is fabulous. The longer you wait the better the vets become and this is the future of WWII sims so don't wait too long or you'll never catch up!

The game is fantastic and the only problem I had was sometimes the FMB would corrupt my scenarios, but careful building eliminated that.

Oh yes, the AI needs alot of help but that's fixable

I see and believe me I know exactely what you are talking about. I did retreat from full selfemployment, working for someone else and am very happy with that, just doing some things for myself on the side.

It is still very tough over here economy wise, especially in Florida we have a high unemployment rate (10+%).

Truly the best of luck to you, there is always hope

Don't get me started on the world’s economic woes! GRRRR! criminals in power bring down the corporations they work for, for short-term greed with no repercussions!, corrupt European governments borrow to payoff public servants!? then bankrupt their nation! bringing down other nations banks because of inter-bank lending .. etc etc etc but that's OT, so i won't go on.
