We have entered a team in Time Commanders. This is the new series that starts Thursday BBC2 at 20.00 in UK. We dont know If we've been chosen yet. I hope the series is as good as it looks on the trailers. As already mentioned it uses the RTW game. Dont know how much is actually used or if the game is just used as a trailer. Our team consists of me a Farmer an IT consultant and a Euro IT consultant. Gaming knowledge is not required, however we are all online gamers.
Hope we make it. BTW I'm the only one that plays MTW in our team.

if get this right, you make strategy decisions on a plotting board like they use in WWII then experianced gamers (the ones who won that competition advertised earlier) actually use the computers to convert your strategy into troop movements and fighting on the big screen.

you shoulda bought the Times this saturday, Play magazine (TV) had a full page review...

Yeh its Thursday. They filmed about half the series already. We have entered for second half of series. They filming 9 slots. Filming starts 22nd September. Half a day for each prog. To enter I had to find a team of four. Also had to fill in a questionaire telling em about me, my life, my occupation, my aspirations. Also whay I would make a good commander and what experience I have. Told em about MTW, plus I played a lot of chess up to quite a good level. Also used to be a member of a WAR Games society. I also made it as humourous as I could. And I advised em I look like Curly Watts off Coronation St http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif
