This thread discusses the content article: March Screenshots

All I really need to know is where the RALLY button is. I tend to need that button more than your normal player! hehe

LP and team,

Thanks for accommodating my screen shot requests. You guys have done an outstanding job of capturing the feel and look of the battlefield. How far we've come since "Gettysburg: The Turning Point" and "Sid Meier's Gettysburg". What I find especially interesting are the views that are denied to us today such as the Z. Taney farm shot looking north.

i feel we're far enough towards the finish line for me to credit you, Amish John, as being someone who has actively impacted how these maps look in this game.

without your diligence our maps could not hope to achieve the level of accuracy becoming the most discerning of students of the battle. you are the Map Maker's best friend, AJ.

I'll second that. Big thanks AJ.

And I'm going to miss finding these screen shot views for you. Maybe we can start something like the "Mystery Photo Thread" at MHO, except it will be virtual Gettysburg. :laugh:

Thanks Louie and LP. My pleasure. Having tramped the fields of GB for so many years I had the advantage of being somewhat familiar with the subject matter. I'm no historian. I have friends who have forgotten more about the battlefield and battle than I'll ever know, but it is interesting to see it graphically represented.

Screen shots look great guys. Quick question, will we be able to personalize our MP courier messages with our own sig...or will our sig be whoever commander we are using in battle?

Norb, Jim, LP, AJ, et.al.: Superlatives fail me at this time to compliment the entire team on outstanding work! Comparing TC2M with SOW is like comparing a typewriter to a computer (assuming there are a few who know what a typewriter is, other than seeing one in the museum)! I can only imagine that TC2M will quickly be gathering dust on many folks' shelves. Thanks to all of you for your hard work and dedication to producing a "market trend-setter!"

Here is a screen shot of the first GB computer game I played back in the mid 80s.

Wow! And back then that was cutting edge technology!

That white block must be the McPherson's barn? :laugh:

Although I really do appreciate your kind words, I refuse to accept them until after you have played for a while Encouragement has helped us more than you can know, to complete this project. But now we are almost done, so I really want people to play and then access. So please do compare, but only after you have brought our new work through it's paces. Give it the best you've got and then let us know how we stand up. We all have hundreds of hours invested in this game and we are all very proud of it.

As Eddie Murphy once said after receiving a huge ovation as he walked out on stage to being his act. "What are you clapping for, you don't even know if I'm F'n funny yet!"
