Any chance Germany wants to surrender and we call call it quits? Or do you still think you can come back in this one McMonkey?

@Alcibaides: you forgot to re-center...

[McMonkey]

I'm totally knackered tonight. Managed to play my short turns but this one takes considerable energy. Should be able to play tomorrow night though

Surrounded and outnumbered Germany fights on doggedly. Five US Heavy Bombers shot down around Lille.

35 german units on their way to Debrecen detected (162;92)
1 german Infantry killed near Budapest.

Is England able to kill the fighters around Lille?

I am sending you a PM about this situation Cobra.

I recently got a new computer with Windows 7. In this game, I have been trying to swap some units and cities with Cobra, but I am having some problems. First off, CivCity does not appear to work in Windows 7, so I don't know how to swap cities. Secondly for swapping units I normally use the cheat mode in .sav. However when I open a .sav game in hot mode (after I have swapped the units) the game either crashes or it will crash when I try to add the other human players back into the game (CTRL-J). This never happened in Windows XP.

I am really sorry for the delay everyone. I do not know what my next step will be. I am thinking of maybe installing Windows XP on this new computer, but that is really a last resort. Has anyone else got Windows 7 yet? What do people think of it? Is it worthwhile to keep? Do you play Civ2 on it?

In the meantime, if Cobra would like to play this turn as the Soviets I really would not mind at all. He already knows which cities to swap and what my general plan is.

I don't have Windows 7 yet but I think there is a built in XP mode that allows you to run games that are no longer compatible. Can anyone confirm this and explain how to utilize it?

[Alcibaides]

Thanks for the tip McMonkey. Unfortunately XP compatibility mode is only available with Windows 7 Professional, I have Windows 7 Home.
