You (almost) never see blizzards in CM scenarios, or dense fog, or moonless overcast nights, or moonless nights with dense fog on muddy ground because some condition just aren't all that fun to try to play in. Not to say having your men stumbling through a monsoon or a blizzard can't be entertaining as a demonstration scenario. But you wouldn't want to make a regular habit of it.

Bogging a good test scenario is a 'Muddy Affair'. Once you played a scenario go back and use it for testing. Bogging in that scenario, last time one Sherman exactly got immobilized. After 10 more times the result was the same. I figured out an 'unbogging' drill. Go back and play and experiment various scenarios. Same with 'Battle for Normandy. I went back to the tutorial with the three trucks scenario. I found out about spotting just by playing it on 'Iron'. Don't rush to die in the more difficult scenarios. I get sick having arguments about my methods test and find it out yourself about which drill you need to use.

Does that mean we also get tactical space butter?

"Wars are about killing and being killed for goals which may, or may not, have value. Wargames are about the tactics and weapons of those wars" Steve@BFC
and yes: It's one of my taglines.

Paper Tiger! One of the best scen crafters ever. Erwin gave you some great advice, take some time and relax a bit. Two things about CM scen... They're always slow to develop and great when we finally get to play them.

Thanks for the update, Steve. Downfall pre-ordered and looking forward to part 2 with bated breath.
I’m another player who’d love to see early war CM, if it ever happens, but I’ll continue to purchase whatever else you guys release in the meantime. Keep up the great work.

Rule 62: Don't take you're self too seriously. I have it tattooed on my arm. It's a very good reminder.... especially when I post on the forum.

Wish him best of luck but I am not holding my breath.

WeGo or NoGo...
One of the primary USPs for me is the 1 minute turn and infinite replays of the turn results. If it doesn't have that, it's not a competitor to CM, in my lexicon.

MarkEzra got a reaction from George MC in What games lead you to CM and what do you also play now?
Mostly Steel Panthers and then was a tester and map maker on SPWAW. Once a Raider always a Raider! Bill Wider introduced me to CMx1.

I like this game... especially the scenario editor.

MarkEzra got a reaction from AlexUK in Combat Mission is so addictive!
Yep... the fall of 1999 and the fabulous three stooges! Never looked back. Truly addictive and there is no cure but more CM!
Just looked up my first post:
"One or two moves a day...more on the weekends and I try to keep four games going at a time....I have suffered only minor withdrawl symptoms at that rate.

None of this is my fault... LOL... I get back into the forum... and start a completely off topic thread... I liked the back story... Everyday guys in a national guard unit who get shipped in a hurry to the German front before hostilities break out... if I remember the book. And for the record: Not a big fan of Clancy... all male testosterone driven characters in fantastic situations. Rule 62!
