       I know everybody but myself has abandoned this site. Even so, I
       still check it every day.
       The reason I have not posted anything is that I am doing
       everything on my computer. No need to post here when it is a
       ghost town.
       However, any questions asked will be answered by me.  :)
       Cheers, Thor

       As an update I have finished the land movement rules. What
       follows is one of the examples from the rules:
       Example:
       A Soviet HQ is in Tactical Mode, and has paid for Operational
       Movement. This gives the Active Unit a base Movement Allowance
       of 10 MvP's. The HQ is in hex ----|---- (Broken), and has
       expended 9 Movement Points and the HQ enters the hex. The Soviet
       Player must roll the die to determine Fatigue because the HQ has
       expended 13 Movement Points, 3 more than its current Movement
       Allowance. The Fatigue die roll indicates that the HQ does not
       incur any Fatigue. The HQ continues moving to hex ----|----
       (Broken). The HQ has currently expended 17 MvP's. The HQ rolls
       for Fatigue, the result is a 1, so the HQ incurs a level 1
       Fatigue increase. The player increases the HQ's FCL level on its
       control sheet by 1. The HQ must engage the Enemy in combat,
       which costs 3 MvP's to initiate. The HQ has expended 21 Movement
       Points.
       In addition I have done some work on John DeShane & and Asylum
       of the Damned.  8)
       Comments are welcome.
       Cheers, Thor

       Well, looking forward to the John Deshane update. 8)
       Um, on another matter Thor, are you ever going to finish posting
       the Roma Mater stories on this Site? You posted two chapters of
       The Siliconate War: Damnatio Memoriae , but it's been silent
       ever since.

       Honestly, I do not know. As of right now there seems to be
       little incentive for me to do so... Unfortunately.

       I FINALLY found the Orbat for the US Army Air Corps in Sept
       1939! Along with the Orbat for the US Navy in Sept 1939!
       Now, you may be wondering why that is so exciting. Well, nearly
       all Orbats for the US in WW2 usually date from 7 Dec 1941. While
       the beginning of the war is ignored...
       Well, now I have the Orbats!  ;D 8)
       However, I am STILL looking for the US Army Orbat for Sept 1939.
       So my search continues...  :(
       Cheers, Thor

       I have come to realize that no wargamers would know what the
       Final War is, so I am going to do up some scenarios for WW2
       using the FW game engine.
       So, along that path I have finished the Polish Armed Forces, and
       below is an example from that Orbat. The first scenario that I
       am going to create is Fall Weiss, the German invasion of Poland
       in 1939. This scenario will, for the most part, teach the
       players the Air & Ground rules.
       Since the Poles have no chance to 'win', their victory
       conditions is to just delay the Germans. The longer they can do
       that, the bigger their victory will be. Then the players can
       switch sides and the final victor will be the one who held out
       the longest!  ;D
       Polish Orbat Example:
       [code]   7) Army Lódz - Gen. Juliusz Rómmel -
       1) Cavalry Brigade Kresy - Col. Stefan Hanka-Kulesza -
       2) Sieradz Militia Brigade -
       3) 2nd Legion Infantry Division - Col. Edward
       Dojan-Surówka -
       4) 10th Infantry Division - Brig. Gen. Franciszek Józef
       Dindorf-Ankowicz -
       5) 28th Infantry Division - Brig. Gen. Wladyslaw
       Boncza-Uzdowski -
       6) 22nd Mountain Division - Col. Leopold Engel-Ragis -
       7) Operational Group Piotrków - Gen. Wiktor Thommée -
       1) Cavalry Brigade Wolynska - Col. Julian Filipowicz
       2) 30th Infantry Division - Brig. Gen. Leopold Cehak -
       8) Army Lódz Aviation -  -
       1) 32nd Reconnaissance Escadrille -  -
       2) 3rd Squadron - 6th Air Regiment -  -
       1) 161st Fighter Escadrille -  -
       2) 162nd Fighter Escadrille -  -
       3) 63rd Observation Escadrille -  -
       4) 66th Observation Escadrille -  - [/code]

       Gav, below is an example of what the ground forces will look
       like in the Final War (WW2 Version).
       Can you give me a critique and any suggestions you may think it
       will need.  :)
