[J Bytheway]

Do be sure to mention it here for those of us who don't frequent the alt-civs section .

Thanks for the well-wishes everyone.

Nice to hear you guys are still at it with the mod-work. And if you see anything in the Medmods that you want to copy or whatever, feel free. It would be nice to know that some of the stuff we did there lives on.

Where are these projects ?

What is the link to Empire alt civ, i really wannna see and eventually try it

and WesW, where can i get your MTW mod, i have MTW but sadly dont play the game as it seems exactly like Shogun: Total war, which is now IMO old and boring now

I find in MTW that you get to a certain point (even if its 200yrs up the line) when you just KNOW 100% that your gunna win
The AI seems to have no tactics for comming back

a way of explaining it. In a football match u get % off possetion, well i find as soon as in MTW u get 51% possetion youve won the game.
Lol what crap i talk

anyway nice to see you back and hope u get better

It's not released for a demo yet, so I haven't announced it in Alt-Civs. But the time is close. Once the city building is active then I'll announce something in Alt-Civ. I'll leave a post in this forum letting you guys know when Hex 'n I have something playable, and try to convince Markos to post a news item. There'll also be a web page to download from, and where I'll be placing screenshots.

[WesW]

Thanks, Zaph. I love all these smilies, though it does seem to take a long time for the pages to load.

My Medieval: Total War mod is posted right alongside my Ctp mods, on my Apolyton webpage.

GOOD NEWS FROM SKORPION59

Peter it is good to hear from you. I have thought many times about jumping back into the forums but didn't think anybody would remember me. Also, I don't have the amount of free time as I used to.

As for myself, right now I am doing good. The cancer has spread but the treatments seem to be staying on top of it. In fact, right now I am in remission and it is just a pain in the rear. Pains, can't digest food, etc. At this point, I plan on living another 40 years.

I was self-employed here in Tulsa for quite a while and had been bugging a friend of mine in Seattle about starting a business too. When I started into remission, I went to Seattle to see my friend about starting a business. Within 2 days, he quit his job and we started our new company. Everthing just fell into place and we were doing very good. After about a year, the cancer came back so I had to come back to Tulsa but all is okay again.

There is a 3-phase $15Million DOD project to put quite a bit of security equipment and wiring in the 3 Naval Bases in the Seattle area. It is being done in three $5Million phases. My friend just left yesterday with the phase 1 contract signed off. This will be the biggest project I have worked on so far.

My sister still goes in and out of remission and my father still can't take care of himself so I'm going to have to figure out how to deal with those issues before going to Seattle.

I don't know what will happen or if I will come out of remission but I'm taking this train. This project will be the one that 'sets me for life'. Also, we are front runners in the 2nd and 3rd phases, giving us a $15Million boost to say the least.

Peter, again it was great hearing from you and feel free to share any or all of this info to the group.
Don
