The same thing happened to me and @cargol in the first battle of the CMFB tournament.

Thanks @cargol. Good game and excellent turn rate. I think the T72s let us both down Great fun and cant wait for the next @George MCscenario. The desert has never looked better! On that other note, I think players that dont finish their games in tournaments should be banned for a period or something.

Im experiencing a very weird issue with PBEM++ in the current CMFB tournament. I get the email notification as usual for turn 17. I load up the game, and in the In progress tab it says Launch Tournament Round 1, but its no longer the Last man out scenario. Instead its Fortress Grosshau (also turn 17, but otherwise a completely different battle). I try to load it but cant get past the password. Once I exit, I get an auto generated save. And its named Grosshasu-Bluebird-Cargol-051. So It looks like this is a battle between Bluebird and @cargol. How this is even possible is beyond me. I have tried to mail Slitherine support a week ago, no reply yet. I'll tag you as well @BFCElvis, might be of interest.

Thanks Elvis! Looking forward to it

Thanks Frank! What an amazing achievement. You are a treasure to this community.

I guess so!

I found this very interesting and not really what is portrayed in CMBB or CMRT.

I have used online colorization tools to bring some color to BW photos and put together other colored photos from the CMBN time frame. Credit to Umlaut for original concept. I have also included a music splash file with Eisenhowers D-day speach. https://www.thefewgoodmen.com/cm-mod-warehouse/combat-mission-battle-for-normandy/cmbn-other/cmbn-force-specific-backgrounds/

Ah, thats good to know so It wasnt some weird bug. I saw it happen to my opponent in the mirrored battle as well. But as per the screen on the previous page, my unit was not panicked and ran to the edge of the screen, it was carefully set up by a hedgerow to cover the approaches. Needles to say as with the setups, this is bad scenario design and needs to be conveyed to the player. Otherwise a very nice and fun scenario. I had a couple other oddities, but these might be explained by the exit zones. In the US army minor victory I counted the OK germans to 13, end screen says 39 (I guess many might have exited and this is indeed ok. But I also find it weird in that battle that the US target is acceptable (enemy casualties) while in the other game below its secured even though the casualties are lower?!

I guess. Never seen antyhing like this. A unit is exited without a exit zone. Will be interesting too see what happens in the next turn. I'll report back...

What is going on here?

Im a bit surprised that the veteran pak38 crew opts for the 150mm heat round vs the su-76. The ordinary ap round is obvioulsy more than enough to penetrate the su76 and far more accurate at that. Any one else see this? TacAI error or as intended?

Its nice when they alter the setups and do other minor changes to adapt to the mirrored matches format. I hope this will evolve over time so you cant know for sure where the mines are, or that the defender can drop a pre-planned barrage in the attackers small setup zone etc. Without a chat its hard to come to a gentleman's agreement

Can these scenarios be found anywhere? Looks fun

Disregard this. After this I got a new turn, the game was back in the "pbem++ in progress". After the turn i got the end screen. Great!
