Looking good! @BFCElvis a few questions: - In addition to Volkssturm and partisans, will other units have the ability to randomize helmets/caps/hats. Would be a welcome addition to all the titles - Will any of the German vehicles be getting their accurate late war versions? eg 251 stummel with top mount and coax mg or the 251/21 with upgraded 20mm? If so, pics would be great. - We've seen the Rubble, when do we get to see the Fire?

We need more modders and scenarios makers
Rastamon replied to Ironcross12's topic in Combat Mission Final Blitzkrieg
@theforgerReally looking forward to your end product here. Sounds like you put a lot of time and thought into it. Historical and well researched is my preferred combination. I'm happy to playtest or review individual scenarios. Many years ago I created a Malemedy West/Skorzeny map in CMBN and then updated it to CMFB. It includes accurate TOE including names for the main leaders, tank comanders and even Francis Currey with his zook (CMH recipient in the battle). Happy to share my map and the btt if it would help. I almost had Fuser's help with the M10/Panther conversion but never quite made it. Also, have given your Mission to Maas a spin a couple of times and really enjoy the more operational feel and decisions. Well done! I tweeked it a bit, added 251/21s as a few of the pioneer command vehicles instead of 251/17s as they had quite a few there. Also thinking about making it tougher on the germans by adding some P47s and have McCowns battalion or a company intercept the main road as they did during the battle. -

Amazing! Although the dropbox link isn't working..showing too many requests. -
New Scenario: Coup d'etat Released.
Rastamon replied to MOS:96B2P's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 2
Wow. This looks incredible. Thanks for putting all that work into it! Will have to clear a couple of weeks on my schedule for this one. -
+1 for an update.

Looking forward to seeing this and more Budapest battles. I started a map (based on Budapest HASL) awhile ago but cities are very slow going, trying to time it with the module release. Thanks for making the effort!

Any news about CMFI 4.0 release
Rastamon replied to markus544's topic in Combat Mission Fortress Italy
OK, it's working now. Thanks for all the help. Along with not having the CMFI activation module (changing the shortcut settings target name worked), I did in fact need to go back and download V4 for CMFI (I had downloaded all the others when those became available and thought I already had CMFI 4.0) and then enter the key. Thanks to Steve, Pete, Mikey and Ultradave! -
Any news about CMFI 4.0 release
Rastamon replied to markus544's topic in Combat Mission Fortress Italy
Thanks for that Pete and Mikey. Made the change and it launches the activation for CMFI 3.0, which then accepts my 3.0 key, but my 4.0 Bundle key is not accepted. When I launch the CMFI it's still showing v1.2 -
Any news about CMFI 4.0 release
Rastamon replied to markus544's topic in Combat Mission Fortress Italy
I don't have an Activate Modules file for CMFI/GL. I can only find one in the game folder for CMBN, CMRT and CMBS. Any way I can get that without having to download the entire game again? -
CMRT and CMBN working, but not CMFB and CMBS. Tried activation key for both as well as the bundle activation, no luck.
-
I'm having the same problem for CMFB and CMBS. CMFB order # is: 303045

Remember the "Bridge Crossing Bug"?
Rastamon replied to Champagne's topic in Combat Mission Final Blitzkrieg
Chris, just tried to email you my bridge file but it's too big. Do you have a dropbox or other? -
Work on Patch v1.01 has started
Rastamon replied to ChrisND's topic in Combat Mission Final Blitzkrieg
Anyone else have bridge problems in Stavelot? I'm on third Peiper mission and have had three vehicles and a half squad get stuck in the bridge. Interestingly enough my first mk IV made it across along with several squads and then another mk IV and two 251's fell inside and are stuck. I have saved games. Let me know if there is an email you want me to send them to, otherwise the campaign so far has been great. -
Preview of the first Battle Pack
Rastamon replied to JonS's topic in Combat Mission Battle for Normandy
I'm on Windows and have the same issue as Wicky. Upgrade to 3.12 worked but I don't see how to activate the BP? -
Ersatz M10 in future modules?
Rastamon replied to CHEqTRO's topic in Combat Mission Final Blitzkrieg
Yup, that was one of the problems in the battle for west Malmedy. Several of the tank commanders were seriously wounded when trying to look around. The cupolas had been removed and replaced with a sheet metal hatch. -

I have some time to test if you want to send me the link. -
Ersatz M10 in future modules?
Rastamon replied to CHEqTRO's topic in Combat Mission Final Blitzkrieg
I have a historical Panzerbrigade 150 scenario ready to go once I get my hands on CMFB and convert from CMBN. Anyone up for making M10 looking skins for the Panthers? I could never quite get them looking right. -
CMRT Campaign: The Last Panzer (Work in Progress
Rastamon replied to dragonwynn's topic in CM Red Thunder Maps and Mods
Looks fantastic. Very impressive. Can't wait to get my hands on it. Happy to test if you''re still looking for more. -
ChrisND - It's all looking great. Can't wait to get my hands on CMFB. Any word on a few of the vehicles I didn't see in the CMFB manual: US: M1 90mm AA gun (knocked out a few Panthers around Stoumont) German: later version 251/21 (with 20mm) and Late war 251/9 (gun mounted on roof)

Some Final Blitzkrieg basic details

Those look great MikeyD! Except the missing Schwimmwagen -
The TO&E Armor List Must Be Huge
Rastamon replied to user1000's topic in Combat Mission Final Blitzkrieg
List looks great ChrisND. Really looking forward to CMFB. Do we get to see the 20mm version of the 251/21 and the later version of the 251/9 Stummel with the 75mm mounted on the roof? There's photo evidence of both of those during the Bulge. Looking forward to the Schwimmwagen in the future module. ;-) -
Just because is a good reason. @MikeyD - New vehicles are looking great. Look forward to seeing those Fallschirmjäger on the deck of that Tiger II.
-
We should see the 20mm kind of Drilling (251/21 late). I hope we see them as platoon leader vehicles where the leader can disembark leaving the gun unmanned but keeping the driver. Really looking forward to Bulge.

Brief overview of where CM is headed
Rastamon replied to Battlefront.com's topic in Combat Mission Fortress Italy
I'd pay $20 just for a Schwimmwagen single vehicle pack. Doesn't even need to schwim. ;-) It was pretty ubiquitous late war, extensively used by the motorized Aufklarungs companies (during the Bulge the 3rd co./1 SS Aufklarungs had 40 schwimmagen) .
