  1. Actually, I'm a bit unsure about that. I frankly don't remember how this works (have to try a campaign, there seems to be a series of questions these days). Searching on SS in the rules, I get a reference to the Exploit force (not support force) in 4.4.3 k). That's it. So, if you have the option to choose SS for your support force, then feel free to do it. Or let the troop quality decide. Whatever you like and feel to be reasonable. Let me quote section 1.2 of the rules:
  2. Who says that SS always will fight with SS? But there's nothing stopping you from adding a die roll for support troop quality. Use a simple table and a real die if you like - no need for a high tech solution. You seem to have an idea of what you want it to be like. But remember, part of CM and ROQC is dealing with the challenges they throw at you.
  3. Your support force changes from game to game. You buy a new support force for each QB. Only your core force is (fairly) constant. Thus, the experience of the support force changes from game to game, while the experience of your core forces changes with battle experience and casualties/replacements. Buy the support force you prefer within the limits of experience the game gives you and the points available in the different categories.
  4. As far as I can tell from checking the rules (it's been a while for me too) yes, the support force quality is set to Random. But the game will IIRC randomly pick a selection of available qualities in the QB when you buy the support troops.
  5. The CMAK files are up now. No maps here. They are optional anyway, but I've found them quite good to use. They help alleviate some of the awkward randomness of the battle generator in the game. Good luck and have fun - and do ask questions if you have any. Email is the safest method, I don't check in here all that often (you were lucky). I did my best to make the rules simple and accessible, but they are somewhat complex - inevitably.
  6. ****. Well, I suppose it couldn't last forever. I lost contact some time ago with the guy who graciously provided the space for me some years ago. I've never paid a single penny for it. I have all the files, but never got around to reestablishing contact and download the site setup. I lost it myself in a harddisk crash half a year ago. I can send you the basic stuff - the CMBB rules and spreadsheet zip up to under 2Mb. I need to know if you want the rules in pdf or MS Word format. And I need to know if you can use the spreadsheet (you need Excel, the reader won't do it). Email me at my get2net.dk addy (robert.olesen) If anyone can suggest a good place to put it then I'd be interested. There's apparently still a demand. I suppose there are a number of free file upload providers today - that could be a start. Do you know any good ones (minimal hazzle, easy to use)? EDIT: Figured that I might as well post them on CM Mods. Look for my mods and/or for ROQC. So far I've posted the CMBB version. The CMAK version will follow.

  7. It's been 2½ years since there has been a post here on ROQC. It has been fairly quiet for a while, but I just had two people email me with questions. So'I guess is won't hurt to send out a friendly reminder. There may well be people here who would like to try it out and who haven't heard about it. ROQC is great if you like to roleplay, watch your men go through the meat grinder and get decorated for valor, and if you just want to have fun. Here are a few links (and check my sig): RobO's great campaign generator RobO's Quick Campaign for CMBB updated
  8. ****. I just bought the game using D2D. If I'd known how this really works then I'd have paid for a shipped version. Let me quote D2D at their SC page It obviously didn't work that way. It uses an online activation tied to your PC. I never got an activation code by email, So, I definitely feel cheated and didn't get what I bought. Any way to get your money back or pay the difference and get a shipped version?
  9. I'd like to try this out. Is it available somewhere?
  10. The real issue is being able to buy the US version of the game via the internet - that wasn't possible with CMBB/CMAK. I had to ask a friend to buy it and arrange for a way to send him something in return. That kind of restriction is not in tune with today's information age.
  11. Hey, I didn't mean to offend you. But then, you did answer my question. Thanks.
  12. That was ca. 4 months ago. I'm looking at a PC that's good value for money and comes up for sale on March 30, but it has a Radeon X740 XL card. That card is most likely not standard. The offer is a Medion PC that's sold in ALDI in several European countries, and they probably have the muscles to get ATI to produce a card tailored to their needs. Still, I'd like any info I can get on this or similar cards regarding CM performance. In case someone understands this stuf, here are the details of the card: http://www.beyond3d.com/misc/chipcomp/?view=boarddetails&id=253 [ March 23, 2005, 07:49 AM: Message edited by: Robert Olesen ]
  13. Yskonyn, you need to change the macro security settings in MS Word (and Excel if you have that). It should be somewhere in the Tools > Macros menu. The location can vary with the version of Word. There are three settings: - High will automatically disable most macros - Medium will ask you if you want macros enabled - Low will automatically enable macros. You probably have the High setting and most likely want to use the Medium. It's the same in Excel but I'm not sure if it shares the settign with Word. I checked the die rolls in the rules for v2.22. They work for me.
  14. Basically, yes. But I guess you've already figured that out. You need to transfer all the values you entered yourself (in white cells) and all die rolls (orange cells) - note that some of these are in the core force sheet at the right.
