Welcome to The Few Good Men

Thanks for visiting our club and having a look around, there is a lot to see. Why not consider becoming a member?

Important Post About The Future of The FGM

I just became a Patreon member for FGM :)
Glad to support your great effort and dedication in creating and maintaining this website. I have been playing CM since CM1 came out in 2000.
Love the game.
 
I have just decided to become a patron... I normally prefer to make a donation every now and then.
Just spent 20 minutes looking for details of how to do so, without success.
It most likely me... so I need direction... (thought they would be a big sign.)
 
Pretty much a CM player. At one time many other games, but not anymore, I still have a interest in other games, just have not seen anything to really get invested into.

I hope CMX3 will bring some life back to it fan base by bringing in new peaple when it happens, but you can see they are likely to be on Steam if that happens and the company is preparing to support steam activities.

So your best bet is to likely branch out, but as you say, that takes manpower.

I like Tournaments and am one that think ladders and such are a joke and a waste of alot of effort for someone to have to run such things.

Really like the new look of the site, if options cannot be done, then I like the dark backdrop.

I made the choice to run my Tournaments here for a reason. So take that for whatever it is worth. It has brought a handful of players to the site, but it has not brought masses, that is for sure. So I dont see huge growth possibilities there, not with the present state of things.

I plan on running my CM Tournaments here as long as a interest exist and I am able to do it.

I could maybe help with some admin if it was for CM type items only.
 
I only play CM. I enjoy the two tournaments I have been involved in.

I do miss the ladders. It isnt perfect by any means, but I think it is fun and a nice way to log games.
I liked it too but it didn't have much uptake.
 
What games do you play?
Just CM games. I have them all. I cannot really pick a favourite.

Are you interested in tournaments?
Yes, love them.

Would you like League Tables?
I do but I have kinda lost interest over the years. Not having one is not an issue for me.

Regarding the Forum design... do you prefer a dark design, a light design or somewhere in the middle? (I want to have one design the majority use so any updates do not need to be triplicated!!??)
Light all the way.
I have to admit I am perplexed over the dark light discussion. I find dark extremely hard to read and I cannot read a site in dark mode for long. The first thing I do when I hit a site with a dark look is try to turn it light or I'm just not going to be reading it much. What I find perplexing is that people love dark mode and think light mode is terrible to read. I'm confused by that :)

Do you want to volunteer to be part of the FGM staff team.
I would not have time I'm afraid. I have a few responsibilities already at TheBlitz and just started a new job. I don't think I can handle more at this time.

If you are not yet a patron would you consider becoming one to help us have a stronger platform going forward?
Been a patreaon for a while. A bit of a cheap ass but I'm there. Probably should revisit my support level :)
 
Dropped out a few years ago due to PC problems but back now with new PC. I think CM is the best gaming system there is. I have FI, BN and FB. Just signed up with Patreon to help out a little. Prefer H2H. Got one game going and should be up to two once a board game PBEM wraps up.

Keep up the good job, Bootie!
 
I’m kinda new here but I love combat mission PBEM. Bootie, Im happy to Venmo or PayPal so please publish that.

Im going to mention that I’ve met many great PBEM opponents here and IMO we all must pay it forward. @Shady Side spun me up on the PBEM scene and made a new player for the community. I’ve tried to do that as well. The CM discord seems to have a lot of match requests and steam has brought in new players. Make sure they find their way here too!
 
What games do you play?
Honestly don't game much these days, but I periodically play Steel Beasts, Carrier Command 2, Planet Zoo, American Truck Simulator and whatever else strikes my fancy when I get the urge to play. CM wise, I have a couple ongoing PBEMS with Vart. Outside of those, I don't touch it much anymore.
Are you interested in tournaments?
No
Would you like League Tables?
No

Dark with sans serif text. This new update is perfect.

I know without a doubt we are going to go on to bigger and better things but it will only work if we all pull in the same direction... roll up our sleeves and put in the work to put the FGM at the top of the pile in relation to online wargaming clubs.....

Ok... who is up first... (passes the microphone).

What games do you play?

Battle Brothers, MTG Arena, CRPGs, and basically any tactical, turn based game that suits my fancy. Combat Mission is no longer on my radar. If BFC ever revitalizes CM with a new engine then I'll be back on board.

Are you interested in tournaments?

I used to be, but I guess I've just whupped so much ass that it no longer interests me. ;-)

Would you like League Tables?

Don't know what that is.

Dark, like my soul.

Do you want to volunteer to be part of the FGM staff team.

No, I still work for a living. FGM staff is a position for those who lead a life of leisure, like @Badger73 .

If you are not yet a patron would you consider becoming one to help us have a stronger platform going forward?

Yep, I'll donate again. I let it lapse but will rectify that post haste.

I think my best current role in this club is being the court jester. :)

I have been surprised to discover over the last year and a half just how large the boardgame community is, including both the old classic games and also the new games coming out left and right. There are a handful of Facebook pages I'm part of for wargames, some of them are pages for wargames in general, some of them are just for one specific game. We might be able to attract that community by making our Boardgames section more prominent.

What games do you play? --- only game I play is CM, I have a few other PC games but none that really hold my interest.
Are you interested in tournaments? --- yes.
Would you like League Tables? ---- no preference
Regarding the Forum design... do you prefer a dark design, a light design or somewhere in the middle? (I want to have one design the majority use so any updates do not need to be triplicated!!??) ---- *** light design please. I hate a dark webpage.
Do you want to volunteer to be part of the FGM staff team. --- Don't know enough about running a webpage to be useful.
If you are not yet a patron would you consider becoming one to help us have a stronger platform going forward? ---- Already a patron
