The WWI with Breakthrough or Strategic Command Global Conflict Gold?

I wanted to say "I bet you'd charge for used toilet paper if you could. :{) I never saw someone so greedy for money as you guys. What happened you didn't used to be this way years ago. Why so greedy now?

I find it happens quite a lot really. I can place my units at the other end of a road into a town and they will filter towards me and just get shot up piecemeal outside of the cover of buildings they could be using on the path to my troups. I just played a game last night so I know what the AI is doing. There's something else they used to be vulnerable to in CMx1 also. Side of the map flanking maneuvers. I find this just as easy as before as they pay more attention to what's coming straight at them instead of their sides. I can easily ruse them still with a small frontal assault while running up the sides of the maps with the main forces.

Just goes more to show the "weakness" of the AI in this game. You should have been destroyed by any human player but the ai is soooooo weak it will come out of good defensive positions for no reason at all or for some silliness just to take back one objective tile it does not need for victory.

Throwing helmets at each other and bayonett fights, gas an animated deaths like in that lil soldiers game. Can't remember its name but its funny as heck when someone gets shot and wounded just before the kick the bucket.

Battlefront could do it just like Matrixgames where they use both systems of delivery. Through steam and through their site as well. Therefore you'd always be able to buy from here and your game would be activated from either site. You'd never have to use Steam if you didn't want to and they would still get exposure on Steam by casuals and people interested that didn't know about this site or these games. It's basically an advertising method that can perhaps be 30% of the sale. I don't know how much Steam gets but I do find that rather high. Of course I know Steve an others associated with Battlefront surely know and it's their game to decide how they want to distribute it. Not caring for my sake because I know where the site is and where to get their games. I'm just thinking about the thousands of dollars they "may" gain by using Steam as well. Makes no difference to me whether they do use Steam or not though in the long run.

Steam doesn't price drop games if the developer says not to. The only reason you see a lot of price drops on Steam is because the publisher/developer has reaped all the sales expected at full price. Then they give a discount to milk those standing on the fence. Not everybody does it though or has to. Battlefront could leave their games at whatever price they choose for as long as they want and Steam can't do anything about that.

There will be one game with all the modules in it for one discount price in the future? I just don't like buying one at a time. I'd like to get them all someday as one bundle package deal. Do you think they will do it?

Heh, yep you called yourself a fool fool lol.

1. FI. I like the setting, the terrain is definitely a huge factor without being as frustrating as bocage, I'm not playing with early/mid-war cripple-tanks, there is an interesting variation in composition between the two forces and engine improvements. 2. BN. Loads of content, plenty of scenarios, some great campaigns, Market-Garden doesn't really interest me much but at least added something besides the airborne operation. 3. SF. I like modern forces, the asymmetric tactics involved, the setting is especially timely and it had tons of content. 4. RT. Just not interesting to me at all. )

I vote for this way. Put it on kickstarter and see if there is enough support to make it. I'll certainly contribute. There's a mod for CMx1 for the japs and the Pacific War land battles (Guadacanal since AH days) are my favorites.

You forgot barefooted. EDIT: Also, seeing as there's already an abundance of "trolls" here I imagine Battlefront, Steve an all don't want to add anymore either. I can only imagine what Steam would bring to this website.

Plus, I bet not one of them can make a "boot" disk with several ways to setup XMS or EMS or conventional memory. Yep they got it "easy as toddlers" but then they still scream when they pop something in an it doesn't work. Back in OUR day we made it work. Remember "basic"? hell we typed in our own games.

Me too these children are nothing but whelps compared to us.
