Hi and ?'s

Hi
I am entertaining returning to the Blitz after many years absence. Pulled out before because I got to where I just had so many games going (for a long time) that doing moves was like work!

Any way I need to know how things are working now. Have most of you guys migrated to the Matrix editions of the games? Do they work with Win 7? I have all my original disks but can't make them work on Win 7 even using a virtual machine running XP or 98SE I can get them to load but the graphics are all dicked up and i get a lot of errors and lock ups.

I play games using VASSAL a few times a week. Live using Skype for Voice communication. Is there a server for live Campaign series games?

Oh and I see there are a lot of mods do most of those work with the Matrix edditions. I really Like WWIII, Nam and Arab Israeli battles.

i have been playing since the late 90's but found matrix edition. yes they work with win 7. the mods work. they are pretty good.

Yep, I've had my Matrix JTCS installed on XP, W7, and now W8. Works a treat, and no hassle with the CDs as a bonus. I still have the TS disks but have not given them a spin for a good few years.

No server for live games, just recruit an opponent from here. There are a few live players around I think

I remember you too Mike in fact I see a lot of handles I remember from years ago. I'm Downloading the matrix edition as I type. I'll probably have a lot of nu bee questions on the games as it has been so long.

And Thanks Dave

Lance, you don't show any games played. Did you start a new account? If so, you're only allowed one account. What was your old call sign?

Dave

I found it. Your original member name was "LanceRunolfsson", all one word. If you can log into that account, let me know. You can use the "forgot password" link, or I can give you a temproary one and email it to you. After you're in and all is well, we'll delete this new one, since no games have been recorded. OK?

Thanks I figured that account would have been deleted years ago. Got company over right now so I'll check it tonight. Only problem is I probably was using a different E mail account back then that i don't have anymore.
