OMG, just started playing a QB with this...yea, I know it took a while. This may be one of my favorite modern mods ever....I actually got screen shots of the Javelins firing at some advancing BMPs...this mod TOTALLY changes my outlook on night combat, which I normally HATE...if you haven't tried this, you totally should...so freakin' cool.

Here you go. I believe this is it. UI for CMFI+GL.zip

@dragonwynn Thought you might find this interesting http://nationalinterest.org/blog/the-buzz/north-koreas-105th-armored-division-kims-most-powerful-24730

Fantastic Screenshots. The mods are coming along nicely. Looking forward to this...

Very nice switch to UKR...looks much more authentic. Love the scenario and building mods too.

But, by switching to UKR forces for the NKPA, I assume that means T-64 and T-64BV can be used...probably as close as you can get to T-62 with the CMBS engine. I agree UKR probably will be a better match for NKPA...as for terrain...if anyone has played dragonwynn's Mountains of Allah campaign (highly recommended ) I wouldn't worry about maps. They will be good. Yea ROKs have their own versions of US equip...but I think it will be close enough. The ROK K1 and K1A1 are close enough to an Abrams.

Hmmmm, a community campaign? I wonder if this has ever been tried? Speaking as someone who is still trying to learn the details of map making and the intricacies of using the AI, I think this would be brilliant...a real chance for an "all-star" campaign....

Well, all I can say is download and try out the Demo....it shows you everything you need to know. Then you can decide. The main advantage to these games is their almost infinite re-playability...both through Quick Battles (my personal favorite) and the huge amount of community produced scenarios and campaigns. Well worth the money...they are pretty much the only "computer" games I play.

Oh...My....Word...how have I never seen this MOD before? This is outstanding! I normally hate night battles...ok, still hate night battles, but I will hate them a whole lot less with this mod. Especially modern night battles where I know I should be able to see things better. (Of course, being a complete knucklehead I never noticed the ALT B and ALT M options before, DUH, been playing these games for over 10 years and never noticed those,)... SO what exactly does the WAR MOVIE mode do? The manual doesn't have a lot to say...ALT B is pretty self explanatory...clearly I need to play around with these setting more...

So playing the first scenario (yea I know, still)--Into the Crucible. WOW, the map here is totally immersive...an awesome urban combat map...I think I lost a squad or two for a minute down an alley... ...and so...much destruction. This battle (at least for now) appears to be an infantry slugfest, so I am holding my own...BUT, damn there are a lot of Russians...and they just keep coming.... I'm sure there is a nasty surprise here (a dragonwynn trademark ) ...but we shall see. Having a blast so far...gotta just keep plugging the holes.

DANG that video was awesome! Can't wait to see what Campaign designers can do with that map! Thanks much.

Very nice...never heard of these...thanks for the recommendations.

Thanks for the recommendation....

Eh, well, Atkinson may not be for everyone..and I definitely did not get the impression he hero worshipped Mark Clark. However, D'Este has written several great books on this theater in addition to Fatal Decision. Bitter Victory: The Battle for Sicily 1943, World War II in the Mediterranean, 1942–1945 James Holland also has a great book on the campaign from May 1944 to the end of the war called Italy's Sorrow

Day of Battle by Rick Atkinson is a very good one volume history.

Ditto, really well done. I agree with IanL, upload those bad boys and maybe someone will turn them into an awesome scenario or QB map.

WOW, just wow. That first map is truly a thing of urban combat beauty. Thanks very much for what looks like another magnificent campaign...so many saved @dragonwynn campaigns...so little time...

Yea, I saw that pitch for CM:Fulda Gap...damn, I'd buy that...you could make a whole campaign based off of Team Yankee...

Heh, I am very much looking forward to what you might cook up for CMSF2.....

All of his stuff is just awesome. I have an in progress @dragonwynn campaign on nearly all my games. They are uniformly infuriating and excellent at the same time. However, one question, oh great campaign maker...do you not own CMFI? I don't think I've ever seen a CMFI campaign? Just wondering....

Keeping in mind of course that when BFC ported CMSF1 over to the Mac, they offered the total bundle to all us Mac guys for about $55 which was a bargain I happily paid after spending almost $100 for the PC game and modules. So, yea, I am very excited about this. If you like CMBS, trust me, you will like this game as well...I mean, now it's almost a historical game with all the Iraq and Afghanistan based content...and mods.

New QB system (my personal favorite)...improved Engine...almost ALLLL the CMSF content to play...yea the same equipment and such, but I think there will be enough new game play to make it worth it. And maybe some new scenarios and campaigns from our trusty group of designers. I actually bought CMSF twice (once for PC when I had to use Bootcamp on my MAC and then the full Mac version) WELL worth the price twice. It's in my top 3 CM titles.

WOOOHOOOO, love it. Getting rid of the ol' CMSF QB selection will be worth it alone. That was by far my biggest complaint about an otherwise awesome game.

I have a large group of CMFI QB maps that were ported over to CMBS...and also a pretty good group of CMFB QB maps. but only a couple of CMBN...as I recall there were a LOT of unique features (bridges, etc) in the CMBN MG and CW modules that made those very tricky to port...also lots of CMRT maps ported to CMBS too...those are at least the same basic geography.

Yes, I HIGHLY recommend the Stalingrad mod...the team that built that did a fantastic job. AND, dragonwynn made an awesome campaign (Rattenkrieg) to go with it.
