PM sent.  I just finished updating everything (as far as I know). 
Just have to compile the scenarios.  Unless some unexpected problem is found it will be off to Bootie soon after the compilation.  

For those of you who have nothing to say about WITE2, GG series, or Games ... please withdraw from my thread and take it outside (John I am asking for you not to lock the thread but just do some admin stuff).
This happened to my last thread too.
* I am not without opinions, but I come here to share my hobby which is the intellectual challenge of games (and history); I am not a warmonger nor pacifist, but I come here to escape the 365/24/7 atmosphere of hate.
* I think this board is the property of BFC, and this behavior does nothing to further the sale of their games; which should, at least, be a concern for them if not for you.
Thank you.

Incredible work. Greatly appreciate it, thanks

I just posted a new scenario called "T-Junction" for GL CMFI on my website (see below for link) and at The Few Good Men. It's playable as Canadians vs Italian AI or H2H. It's 35 minutes in duration on a hot, sunny and very dry afternoon with light winds out of the S. It is fictional but has a loose base from Mark Zuehlke's book, "Operation Husky". The Map is 400 x 320 m in size.
Anyway, hope you get a chance to play it and you enjoy it. I still have a ways to go to really put out something well polished, but I'm a lot closer now than before, so we are getting there.
Thanks, and have a great day!

Can never have too many FI scenarios! With Canadians and Itallians to boot, which is fantastic.
Thanks for making it.

37mm has a youtube channel?  You gotta work on your marketing dept, I just now learned of it.  Looks like lots of excellent content, thanks

This looks great.

hello...
I will be making an updated version of the scenario....
The information provided to the player have been somewhat lacking as mentioned by Erwin and also this guy...
US Forces vs ISIS in Syria - Combat Mission Shock Force 2 - YouTube
(Huge SPOILER-WARNING !) both with regards to this version as well as the updated one....some parts of the gameplay will remain the same 😎
I honestly did not expect a livestream of the scenario 😊...
Many thanks to SmartWargames for doing it...It will provide some useful fedback...
I will inprove the information given to the player and also make some changes to the actuall gameplay....A few things came up during the stream that i will have a look at...
 

It looks like we are on our own lads. I gave my best case (others did too) in the CMRT forum F&R thread to Steve/BFC to give us some "war gamer kits" and I can hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.
FROM HERE ON OUT, I THINK CMFI CAN BE THE BEST ARENA FOR EARLY WAR MODS EVEN IF SET IN USSR, FRANCE, etc.
Reason 1: Since you can set the scenario date to July 1943, there is a certain lower availability of panzerfausts. I have to test that to see how true that is. No MP44. 
Reason 2: There are multiple axis nations so you can have around 6 uniform choices on the map. CMRT has only 2 uniform choices for Allies. But that will change with F&R. You can have at least 2 voice files in use at once in a scenario. You can have at least 2 names files in use in a scenario. Think of Germans and Italians at El Alamein or Romanians and Germans near Stalingrad.
Reason 3: There are multiple allied nations. This allows somewhat more uniform choices on the map vs just 2. Some allied nations use the same uniforms as US it seems. You can have multiple voice files in use at once in a scenario. You can have multiple names files in use in a scenario. A North Afrika Tunisia scenario with Free French, British and US all fighting against Axis.
Reason 4: we have all the seasons
The modding of CMFI to become a new early war CMRT is a great project. CMFI BARBAROSSA will not start until after F&R comes out.
The modding of CMFI to become a new early war CMBN is a great project. CMFI FALL GELB will not start until after F&R comes out.
 

Since you insist on continuing this  off topic discussion.
I don't think fighting Nazis offers the Soviet military a clean slate for their acts of aggression and crimes against not only their own people but their neighbours. 
Neither do I equate the Allies whose acts were committed against targets with the intention of ending the war and freeing the people or Europe with that of the  Soviet Union who deliberately targeted the peoples of Poland and the Baltics  with acts of mass murderer to terrify them into submission. All the while allied with the Nazis. It's frankly absurd to try equate the two.
Sorry your  "we're great because we fought Nazis, after being content to first align with them, and because our crimes against humanity didn't quite match theirs " argument doesn't fly with me. 
You are of course entitled to your opinion.

While I agree there was a degree of so-called "wehraboo-ism" about the German military there are now those going too far in rehabilitating the conduct of Soviet army.
Lets not forget the Soviet military initially invaded Poland along with their Nazi allies and committed the Katyn massacre. They also invaded the Baltic countries who joined the Eastern Poles enslaved under a genocidal regime.  All in line with the The Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact.
Lastly Soviet soldiers did not liberate Eastern European countries but merely exchanged one tyranny for another. Many of those same "liberating" Soviet solders would later turn their guns on the people of Hungary and Czechoslovakia.
