I have a few words, I hope you'll indulge me.

A (very) long time ago I played a game called Steel Panthers and I loved, well time and by, life intervened and SPMBT was left behind. A few years later I found someone selling a copy on eBay and I thought why not? And I loved it. Anyway time went by, life intervened and SPMBT got left behind. MANY years later I discovered that SPMBT had become winSPMBT so I bought it. And I'm loving it!

I'm partway through my first PBEM campaign and I'm kicking *** but you know, even if I was losing I'd be having fun. I've got a 360 downstairs that's practically packed it's bags and left out of neglect.

I just wanted to say to everyone out there, particularly of course the developers and all the people that continue to put so much time, effort and dedication into SPMBT.

Thanks.

Thanks for making a game that really makes me think instead of thinking for me. As bright and shiny as other games may be there is no other game that I could ever have believed I'd be playing for over a decade, on and off. That says a lot.

Keep up the very good work.

Nahh, I have that on top. I have to have a Licence to do my job, that costs me £120 per three years, Plus a 4 day course rated at about £200. To top it all off the Licence is about as much use as a Fish Bicycle. ;)

Very cool that you have SP at work, tried that and NO WAY!! Heck I said I'd even work overtime and that didn't work. LOL

But back SG Kudos Man you are right on the money!!
