Wow was it really that long ago when I joined Apolyton? I remember when your units, Captain Nemo's, and Case's were the hottest thing on the block

Cool to see your mug around here again my man. Where ya been?

P.S. who was it that commented about all the greats coming back?

Good to see you too. Well, I've been lurking around forever, but mostly I've been trying to finish a Red Front Democracy game, hence the avatar!

We should start a new one when Fairline & Co. finish the new version me thinks.

[Jimmywax]

A new one? How long has the current one been going?

i am going to attempt to modify nemo's sherman
beacause the ram looks similar.

....And a hoarde of tanks that i whipped up out of boredom.
plus my 4th attempt at that ram mk 1
Left to Right
Soviet T-100
American M-24
Canadian Ram MK-I
Soviet T-44 gone horribly horribly wrong
Polish 7TPJW
Canadian Ram MK-II
Italian M-15/42
These were the only ones that came out remotely useable

They could all use some finishing work,
i am very bad at finishing work,
Feel free to use 'em and abuse 'em!

Funny-looking tanks! Excellent stuff

[Broken_Erika]

anybody up for making a ww2 scenario where germany doesn't start invading countries until 1946, 1948
or 1952?

you could use historical soviet, american and british units
all that is needed are new fictional french, italian, japanese and german units

Just a suggestion broken_erica, if you attach the files as gifs or jpegs, they are easier to view.

[Broken_Erika]

ms-paint has a habit of eating the files,
when i save as gif or jpeg from bmp,
they always seem to be highly distorted

[typhoon]

Use Paint Shop Pro, load the Civ2 palette, save as gif

[Broken_Erika]

thanks
now all i need is a real paint program
