Full working versions?!?!?, it there not something about using an USB key to
get it to work? or is that a myth?

No, its not a myth. I have VBS1 and the game plus major addons are all
encrypted to your unique key. I'll be suprised if they have gotten it to
work.

The core VBS1 package that was released works but the addons that were
also on nntp don't.

There's really not much in the VBS core so don't expect much fun gaming
with it. You sure as hell won't get any military secrets from it :-)

I've read that you can make it work as a OF addon.
A year ago I would've grabbed this, but with AA less than a year away,
is it ever worth it....?

Well, AA should be out about Xmas going off the latest info and
interviews from GC06 etc and as that uses the VBS2 engine, downloading
this is more just to have a look at the differences to OFP like the
animations, animals etc.

True. It's next to useless as it comes with only a core island and none of the
maps that came with OFP. Plus you don't get many units to use either. I have
all of the addons except Artillery and it really is worth it if you are an OFP
nut!

OFP

I have absolutely no doubt that some of you inhere indeed are nutters with a
passion for OFP, especially since the pricetag for VBS1 is so outrageously
over the top

.

Just some questions, i know that VBS1 is used for military use in mission -
exercises and such, but do those missions (non classified and such) take
place on the internet and can you who bought it (wouldn't even call it a
game) participate in those missions or how does it work for you?, do all who
bought it play on a single big battlefield?
