That was one of the greatest games I have ever played. I no longer have it though. Wish I could find it in a bargin bin.

Dear Instar,

Completely off-topic but regarding your tag line:

<font color="green">When a cat is dropped, it always lands on its feet, and when toast is dropped, it always lands with the buttered side facing down. I propose to strap buttered toast to the back of a cat. The two will hover, spinning inches above the ground. With a giant buttered cat array, a high-speed monorail could easily link New York with Chicago. </font>

Shouldn't the toast be strapped to the cat's feet, butter side up? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Makes you laugh when you think enough of the phrase to make it your tag line and I think of it enough to spend time analyzing the mechanics of the buttered-cat array and reply to you!

Best regards.

Have you played it online? I remember a very good great online community for the game with a lot of fun and ladder game there.... I still own my boxed copy of it with the not so big but fantastic manual... it is the best! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

With the buttered toast strapped butter-up to the cat's back, it will always try to invert the cat so that it lands buttered-side down. The cat will always try to invert so that it lands feet first. Neither will ever be able to happen.

If you put the toast on the cat's feet, both will orient in the same direction, resulting merely in falling. Of course, if the butter is facing upwards towards the cat's belly, you will either have the same affect as strapping it to it's back, or the legs will break and contort into odd angles so that the buttered side lands face down and the cat lands on its feet simultaneously.

No I never had a chance to play it online. If I remember correctly the AI was more than enough on the hard settings.

As a matter of fact playing the whole campaign against the AI was not a joke but you lost a lot of the flavour a human opponent can give to the game. Fun games, ladder games, Clans, Clans war, tournaments, the close combat 2 community was very great! they also did some mod like new graphic and new sound! nothin to compare with the realred mod for close combat 3 but, it was always something! wot a game and wot a community! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Yeah, that's been my sig for quite some time now... I found it somewhere and thought it was interesting, so it works.

I would like to see the classic Avalon Hill board games (especially ASL) converted to the PC with sophisticated AI. Also, The Gamers board game conversions (especially the OCS series). It would finally allow me to play these games when I could never find an opponent before and had to sell them all.

Not a game, but a mod... a mod for Dominions II with a sci-fi space setting a la Space Empires IV! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif
