glamdring Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 I've just gone out and bought FM 06 since it was reduced in price so I just wanted to know what people on here think regarding FM 05 vs FM 06 for international management. My Faroe Islands/Panama story game is fairly slow burning at the moment so I've only played a few friendlies. Is FM 06 international management sufficiently better than FM 05 to warrant me starting the game again in 06? That would (I assume) mean that any chance of making the 2006 World Cup would go down the swanny, but then the Faroes were never going to qualify anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harleqin Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 Ok, this is an emergency call to the Brits, Scots, Dutch and what have you. Since the never versions of this game just aren't playable on my antique comp I decided to go back to CM3, but I don't seem to have it anymore Does anyone know of an online store (apart from Ebay where I can get it for about 6 quid including shipping) that sells the last of the CM3 games? Think it was the 00/01 version. Or maybe it was 01/02? Can't remember, but the last version. Or maybe someone has it and would be willing to part with it? I got an account at PayPal, so it shouldn't be too much trouble. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harleqin Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 Great Now, if only it could be modded to start in 2005 instead of the default year and with an updated database It was a great game.
