Combatintman Posted January 27, 2017 Author Share Posted January 27, 2017 @George MCglad you enjoyed it and thanks for the recommendation. As to how it played out for you - it was clear that once you got into a fire and manoeuvre rhythm things started to move in the right direction for you. As to the result - your losses were, if you forgive the pun ... fatal. Mind you, as I think I have said before, I don't think I've ever finished your Battlegroup Attacks scenario so I will stop judging!!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, as I think I have said before, I don't think I've ever finished your Battlegroup Attacks scenario so I will stop judging!!!! He! Aye I should have gone with the fire and manoeuvre from the off. The enemy AI plan looks to effective - lot's of enemy popping up and firing then ducking down and breaking contact. So whatever you have done with the Red AI Plan works very effectively. Aye as soon as I saw that "event" i realised my goose was cooked! Still - had to salvage some scraps of honour from the chaos of battle! "Battlegroup Attacks!" is easy - you have big tanky things that make bad guy stuff go boom! Your scenario is a grand wee tactical teaser, a grand wee gem. I'll give it another spin once my short term memory fades! Which won't be long... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a designer it is always interesting to see how people play the thing as well - both @George MC and @MOS:96B2P have gone for getting overwatch positions in buildings from the near bank. My scheme of manoeuvre in testing was far less sophisticated. As always a good AAR in progress from @MOS:96B2P. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erwin Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Yup, George. I think I have every CMSF mod ever made. Takes a long time to load the game now. But, takes so long to manage the mods for other CM2 titles, no time to play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Combatintman Posted February 3, 2017 Author Share Posted February 3, 2017 @MOS:96B2P - clearly 6 Platoon has a US exchange officer in its midst what with all of these 'meters' and 'platoon XOs' in the narrative. Loving the AAR though and looks like you're cracking along well with this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember talking to you about this mod over a year ago. I must have missed the release. You might want to think about moving it to CMMODs III. I think the BFC Repository will be shut down. Thanks for upgrading this mod and thanks to @Mord the original creator. Some screenshots are below. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOS:96B2P Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 //////////////////////////////////////////////////SPOILER//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// //////////////////////////////////////////////////SPOILER////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Major Victory. The Battalion Commander graciously granted five minutes of additional hunting time but there was still some OpFor leftover in the northwest built up area. It was fun taking the Warrior IFVs for a spin. Very nice scenario. I recommend it along with any scenario made by Combatintman. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Combatintman Posted February 6, 2017 Author Share Posted February 6, 2017 @MOS:96B2P I think you were a bit unlucky there - you must have missed out on a Total Victory by a whisker. Anyway glad you enjoyed it and thanks once again for another excellent AAR. In the mean time you can brush up on the Queen's English before the next one 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borg Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Hello ladies ! I was a few weeks radio silence. I JUST changed and upgraded my machine. Still with a Mac. But this time,. with a beast and I can push higher all settings to maximum without worrying about performance. It seems CMSF goes up to only 1440 x 900 maximum ? I'm going to take this mission for a spin this week, and report back. Thank you all. Who knows which month of the year BFC will spill some more beans about the Middle East 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
