Thanks. I now have all the CMBO data I'll need to reproduce this venerable scen.

Hello: I am Mark Ezra. I make Quick Battle Maps for CMx2 Titles. I really need your help. I'd like to remake the CMBO scen Wiltz by Wild Bill Wilder. To do that I need the following: 1. 2D map editor Pic showing the setup areas and elevation 2. Pics of all written docs for both sides (that includes the history and TOE for both sides) You will need a screen capture device like fraps to create jpeg pics .I will be certain to include your name in the credits please send me an email markDOTezraATgmailDOTcom Thank You!

Postman just came...still no Armata! BFC needs to get another fulfillment service...

Glad you enjoyed the thrashing at the hands of the QB AI... makes me want to make more QB Maps!

I'd like the animation to be the faster moving group shoves the slower moving group to the ground (with appropriate vocals)

I do all my maps sober... I kinda ran out of options awhile back

send it to me for qb map markDOTezra3591ATgmail.com

CMRT QB Map file contains 178 Maps

Please provide the maps name and I will look into it

Hills forest 228 is borked. I have repaired all versions and will see about gettin them in next patch.

No need. I'll check the QB map and get back to you here.

Thank you for sharing this!

I attached a pdf file on some thoughts on how I make a QB Map. Making a Quick Battle Map.pdf

I'm using the border square to limit the need to root out broken enemy. The player needs only to check the actual line. But also understand that being near the obj is exercising control of the obj. I can't do anything about the set I p areas,but the border obj style is my response to the in game yellow blotchy pattern that a fill obj paint job leaves.

One of my most favorite time periods. Good luck with the work.

Many a QB Map started life as a Campaign! CM Campaign and Scen designers have been generous in providing their maps for conversion into QB Maps. Players can, of course, take QB Maps and make scen or campaigns with them. But there is no function within the scope of Quick Battle Generator to take a human controlled force from one Quick battle to another. A player could take the time and work during QB Force selection to mimic such an event. But it really isn't within the scope of the Quick Battle Generator. Perhaps that's something better left to the Scen Editor. The Master Maps found in some of the CM Games would be great for that kind of thing.

I don't have time today but I'll try to do that in the next day or so.

The thing about CMBN early QB maps (and any new title) is the buildings and doodads can kill a map. Telephone poles gave me some real headaches in CMBN As did any number of new buildings. But QB maps is a volume driven product. So what I needed to do was put together a lot of hills and forest and open farmland in the early builds. I always have a goal of 50 attack style and 50 meeting engagement maps (that makes the QB map file count of 200). That's forces me to work fast and except some less than stellar results. The place I need to push for excellence is always the AI mapping. There can be no excuse for have assed work there.

I'm especially glad as you are either a fairly new poster on the forum or an excellent lurker! Either way it's a pleasure to know the maps are being used.

This is bad map making, plan and simple. I recently redid a number of CMBN bocage heavy maps... all of them mine. We learn as we live... hopefully

Thank you for the link!

I'm playing Town-Water-Damaged (1408 X 1152) 015 Meet. I started the game as Allied Batt size Mech Inf with two Sherman's. I laid smoke and Ran one of my Mech Coy over the road bridge and took the town. But the German's have a ton of armor and have massed on the rail bridge side. I was able to kill a number of them with flank shots... gonna promote that boy if I don't get him killed first... but the Huns didn't bother with the rail bridge! They slipped across usin the low ground of the ford. Damned! Now the're headed for my Maj VP (the rail station). Time for some coffee and cookies. That's sure to help. SEE the pic? The cookies didn't help much.

Fantastic detail! A true work of art
