    When will be the release? 
    The ideal date will be the 22.06.2023. But I won't promise too much....for sure, release will be 2023 ! 
    What's the current progress?
    The biggest campaign "Tiger Trail" is in its final testing stage as a Betaversion. It will be ready for 22nd June release. 
    The "Five Bridges" Campaign has seen most of the map making, which is (with my experience) the most time consuming aspect - testing will start in March.
    The "Into Hell" Campaign the same.
    The "Partisans" Land Campaign (the smallest of all) is in the middle of map making and will be ready for testing in April.
    So - to quote the guys from Battlefront 😉 "it will be ready when it's ready."
    Will there be any single Missions?
    Currently, I have plans for 3 single Missions but I doubt to have the time to put effort in these ones. So, let's see....
    Is there a possibility to increase the number of campaigns or single missions for that BattlePack?
    Of course. As the headline says, this is a project made by fan(s) of CM and everybody who wants to participate is very welcome. Honestly I have to say that I have written a mail to Battlefront and offered them this stuff (without financial interests) in order to get designs, briefings etc. more professional but they ignored myself 😜
    So, if anybody is motivated to create stuff, doesn't matter if one small single mission or a whole campaign, then this would be very appreciated 👍 The only condition is:
    the stuff must match the BattlePacks main theme "Summer of Destruction June to July 1944, ArmyGroup Central". 
    Will there be any Master Maps?
    Currently, the pack will include 12 Master maps but this number may change until release.

    Chapter IV
     
    Campaign "Tiger Trail"
    When the German Frontlines had collapsed and the Soviet Advance approached the Border of East Prussia, the Axis Headquarters sent its armored reserves to stop the Soviet Steamroller by all means. The Player is commanding parts of the German 3.SS-Panzer-Division "Totenkopf" west of the Njemen River near Grodno. Will the Division be able to stop the enemy and cut off the III.Soviet Cavalry Corps ?
    17 single Missions.

    We have the announcement of a (hopefully) stunning new module for CMFB, for a absolutely great CMBN BattlePack, for a very interesting CMFI BattlePack - so WW II fans like me are happy wth the coming stuff in 2023.
    BUT, something is missing....where is the CMRT ? No new content after the release of the fantastic BattlePack of George MC in 2022 😢
     
    And here it is: 
    While back after a long break, Mr.X was very busy and is working on a FanMade BattlePack for 2023. More to come....

    Commanderski reacted to Vacillator in Searching for Partner to develope a scenario featuring Seelow heights.   
    Just checking - you do know there's a Seelow Heights battle in Fire & Rubble?  Not sure if the map will be similar or overlap with yours though.
    EDIT : Had a quick look at FR Seelow Heights, it's roughly 5000m by 2000m with a lot of open fields.
    The author is Jon Martina - I think this is @ASL Veteran?

    True...
    But one thing that Battlefront could do is to improve the map editor...or the entire scenario editor for that matter.
    That is something the community can't do...

    And the RT battle pack if you do WW2 as well.  And it is excellent (thanks @George MC).
    Looking back at @Battlefront.com's (Steve's) original post in this thread, in addition to what I wrote above, there was also a CMFI battle pack incoming, which would extend my WW2 'upcoming' list to:
    CMBN battlepack CMFB Commonwealth / Later timescale module CMFI battle pack For those of the other persuasion, work an a CMCW module was also mentioned.
    Of course things may have moved on or changed since then but I think at least a couple of the above are progressing.

    Things that are on their way (AFAIK):
    CMBN battlepack CMFB Commonwealth / Later timescale module And something that isn't but wishful thinking:
    CMRT Early War module And one which goes without saying but which is always met with stoney silence when it is said 😉:

    Commanderski reacted to George MC in I don't think I can go back to playing against the AI   
    Are you not playing the designer? I mean to create an AI plan as the designer I have to playout the scenario. This then forms the basis of the AI Plan. Then tweaked to take account of players doing 'leftfield' stuff. The only downside is I have to plot all my moves at the start of the game whilst you as the player get to do em each minute.
    But yeah playing against people (which I do both for fun and competitively in tourney's)adds another dimension but I think playing PBEM has developed my CM skill set, deeper appreciation of tactics and that helps inform creating interesting AI plans - caveat - I'm not expecting good players to be beat by the AI plan but hopefully have an engaging time. So in my world view - plenty room for both types of play

    This is visit of Prigozyn to the morgue in Pervomaisk, Luhansk oblast. Day ago UKR HIMARS hit a hospital with wounded Wagner fighters. So pills of bodies in black bags are from this strike. Also the truck brought new bodies from frontline. Is this Geneva Convention violation? I think, no. Wagners are merceneries, so GC doesn't spread on them.
    One more effective strike took place at 23:58 31st of Dec in Makiivka city, Donetsk oblast. Three HIMARSes or something more large completely ruined a building of former technical college #19, which was used as barracks since 2014. On eve in this building were deployed Russian mobilized soldiers, which just arrived to Makiivka. Also in the basement of college was an ammo dump. Result of explosion you can see on the photo. Locals write in the building was about 600 "mobiks" and most of them were killed in explosion. As if one survived told in hospital "it's will be good if from 600 survived 100". This episode already have big resonance among Russian milbloggers, though they don't issue number of dead. 
    On the photo the college/barrack before and after

    I don't have any of the modern games as I prefer WWII Eastern Front but Combat Mission Cold war just won an award for the best computer wargame. The category is near the bottom of the page.

    You can play as Allied, for example Cat and Mouse which I'm playing against @Ultradave.  I'm the one with the IS2s, and I think I'd say it's a tough ask for both sides. 
    Great work by @George MC once more, and the map for this one is excellent (and totally new I think?).

    That does not mean that I have changed my opinion of how evil you are for wrecking so much of my beautiful kampfgruppe at Rakow.
