I wish to be not forgotten, please. I tried to blow up a bridge, but it did not work. The engineers, standing next to it, shot the bridge with their rifles, but that was it. Same with buildings. Is it possible you are confusing CMBO with the successing CM games?

Holy cow, he found me... I'm negotiating with the "Blitzkrieg Wargaming" site at www.theblitz.org.

Yes they can. </font>

"The Proving Grounds"? Well, I'll try. Thanks a lot.

My new E-Mail adress is now CodeAlpha@gmx.net Just in case a miracle happens and somebody answers my plea...

The engineers carry satchel charges... I only knew they're carrying something, and I wondered whether those were explosives. Can the engineers blow up stuff? Like houses, bridges, etc.? That would make for a whole new range of interesting mission possibilities.

The idea about having motorcycles in the game isn't so bad... wasn't the German bike with the carriage, MG34/42 mounted, the symbol of the Blitzkrieg? Mounted cavallery would be something, too, as said above. There are cavallery troops in CMBB, but they don't fight mounted. I'd love to see a charge like in 1864.

Hi there! Since nobody reacted to my offer for one special map in exchange for an AAR, I make another offer. If you feel like playing a map that was not done by the quick generator and still want an area that you did not create yourself - just come to me! Tell me what you have in mind and I will create a map for you and your opponent, including everything needed, landscape, troops, briefing (in German or English), etc. Due to technical reasons, the offer is limited to "Beyond Overlord". My "Barbarossa" CD is out of reach right now and I have not bought "Afrika Korps" yet.

Oh please, stop using "Nazis" and "Wehrmacht troops" synonymously. The German Landsers were no innocent lambs either (to put it mildly), but I refrain from equalizing them with the SS Death Commandos and the GeStaPo scum.

I have a map, but no more computer. (I'm using a public computer and the backup file.) It is a map of my homevillage which is situated right in the middle of the former Westwall. The historical MLR was between my village and the village south of it, where the US forces were temporarily halted by troops of the SS PzGrenDiv "Goetz von Berlichingen". History aside, I created the map so that the resistance would be found inside the village. The map is rather small, but it is elaborate. (Except for software restrictions, like houses cannot be situated on the flanks of a hill.) As a matter of fact, I am looking for experienced players who would set up a reasonable force and play my map, judging it and write a detailed After Action Report. That is what interests me most of all. For further information, please E-Mail me. 140777s42317@gmx.net

Was the possibility to dig in tanks removed from the game? I remember playing against a friend (Beyond Overlord) and he set up the game so that the defenders be dug in and he complained to me that "those idiots" (meaning the Wehrmacht dudes) thus immobilized his StuGIII... I've never tried to make a tank a static defence myself, though, owning every game of the CM series...
