Don't remind me. I could have used BOS for my handle, which is Basic Operating System. It dates back to the first IBM 360 machines from the 60's., at least VM is from the 70's. I orked on both types when they were new. Sad huh.Comment

Yeah, I bet you had to walk to school in snow up to your ears, two miles, uphill both ways too!

ah, reminds me of my first computer gaming experience. Playing text only blackjack on a mainframe in 1971. So, your not that old Vmxa1!

PS Sorry we are way off topic.
Back on topic....I am playing this #$@^&%^ game every day now, and still can't get enough. What is up with that?

I think the board traffic is low enough that you can get off topic.
Just for the record I grew up in Mich, so I did walk to school in the snow, but not more than 3/4 mile.
I play startrek on main frames then too, in fact I wrote a pinochle game for a Navy computer in 1966, using binary coded octal.
I sometimes get enough of it (Moo) for awhile, but I did play Moo2 last night and Moo the night before to see if they would fail on my XP Pro setup. I have to install and try out all of my software so I can not linger on one game too long right now, especially now that AoW2 is gold. Too bad Moo3 did not make its date (5/31).Comment

I know I will play some AoW2 - I was a beta tester. It's a really nice game. Really nice.
But the RMG didn't make it in, lowering its appeal to me consderably, unfortunately. I don't expect it to last like MOM or MOO did.
Still, if they sell enough, a RMG is first in the pipeline of expansion stuff to be added, so but it if you can, guys."The number of political murders was a little under one million (800,000 - 900,000)." - chegitz guevara on the history of the USSR.

Vmxa1,
Wow mainframe Star Trek...I have thought about that in eons. I remember playing that on the mainframe remote dumb terminal (Sigma 7) in HS in '78 and '79. My teacher used to get really pissed at me cuz I would use up all the paper (rolled yellow) since there was no monitor.

They did not make an add-on for AoW, which was a shame, the web had lots of maps though.
I really enjoyed it.
Ah, the wonderful green monitor, sure do not miss them. When I first saw the 4 color screens, I thought it was heaven. I figured out how to insert controller commands in my text msg and send colored msgs wih highlights.Comment

I can't just yet, beyond what's official. Signed an NDA and all of that. But you can choose you own sposts to settle, for straters, which changes the game dynamics completely.
Plenty of other nifty changes as well."The number of political murders was a little under one million (800,000 - 900,000)." - chegitz guevara on the history of the USSR.

Well it has gone gold, so I will have it soon, maybe next week. Actually, it is probably available at some of the pirate sites. I prefer to support the developers.Comment

It's gonna be out Real Soon Now, yes, so you can see for yourself. I rather like it, but the lack of a RMG kills some of the appeal for me."The number of political murders was a little under one million (800,000 - 900,000)." - chegitz guevara on the history of the USSR.
