A mystery!


Being flushed with excitement at having just about finished stickering my C&C Prussian Army expansion blocks, I was not worried that I waited a few days for a copy of memoir 44 to arrive. By the time I contacted the supplier it was about a week, and they duly provided me with the electronic signiature (Royal mail 24), and time of delivery. Even on those devices there was no way it was my signature, but it was clearly an L and a G followed by a scribbled back loop and over! At first I thought was going mad, but I knew it was not my signature as I never go backwards and it's quite distinctive. So what has happened to my £40.00 game?  Of course I checked family members, "Dad, why would we sign as you?" Yes, of course, and same for neighbours, we know them all. Checked the delivery address and postcode ..... mine, time of delivery 15.10 I was here then and there was no delivery.

To be honest I'm scratching my head over this as I don't see what I can do?

I plan to order the C&C Spanish expansion this week (to complete the series so far), but surely this could not happen again!

* 'Iron Will' counter shown at top, the latest new game mechanic for C&C Napoleonics. Prussians get a number of these according to scenario and they can be used as a sort of 'last resort' to get units out of tough morale situations by allowing a unit to ignore one more flag (retreat) roll per Iron Will token played.
