cool,quick hand out the trouts!!

Hi Major I read on the CMBB forum a post from a guy asking if we can arrange a meeting with us(tacopsians) and the marines. Can you arrange such a meeting? Would be fun to have the test team members (and off course all other players from the list)against the marines in a CPX.

blood and guts werent the most important part of the story. Far more people were concerned about the fact that these details didnt serve any real purpose for the game,but would use resources that could be used better.

Guys, I have problems with my internet connection since friday afternoon. I lost connection due to server problems at Wanadoo I can sometimes get back on the net but I still cant send email. I dont know when its fixed again but it might take several days befor I am online again. Please dont send any mail untill you hear from me again Henk

A very usefull learning experience would be if you join the upcoming CPX you learn the basics of the game and very fast,some very good players participate saturday in the cpx. Henk

Ifully understand your problem. Its very frustrating. From the CMBO scenarios I made i got only one critical(!)review with comments that were usefull to improve that specific scenario. An email with complaints/suggestions and /or critic would not be that hard to write........

Another item I would like to see is the fire and forget capability of the Apache. They are able to pop up and fire their entire missile load against multiple targets while the same time getting back into cover(without guiding the missiles)using a scout helicopter(or other laser designator) would be also great.

Hi Glenn, Welcome on board,be prepared to enjoy a game which will not let you go for a long time. Say friends and family goodbye Go to the website created by Michael Dorosh. He has a lot of info and battles (including mine named Day of the Wasps)about the Canadian forces in WW2. You will see a link to the site in one of his posts,its named Canuck. Henk

Hmm, I dont agree on that statement panzer. If I played that one I can tell you if you are right,or not. It might be a good chance to improve that scenario by giving a judgement about it or even better by giving more advice to make it better. I just saw a review on one of Michael Dorosh's scenarios,the player gave that one very low points degrading the scenario which is very good. In this case it must have been a player who cant employ proper tactics to reach his goals because I had no problems to win it.

hmm,would you be willing to tell which battle this is? We might be in a better position to discuss it once we know what we are talking about. but I have a feeling when you described it that it is my scenario.

No,you cant. Artillery has no effect on minefields,only engineers demo charges You should try my May 1940 scenario,available at the depot. [ January 19, 2003, 03:53 PM: Message edited by: Stoffel ]

In CMBo my favorite scenario is May 1940. Took me 2 weeks work and testing befor posting. For CMBB I have 1 scenario out,Seelow heights. Rune and Warphead promised me to look at it? Do you guys did allready???????

very cool idea,send me a battle if you need an extra player btw did you try my scenario allready?

what can I say I played as the germans. This is an absolute slaugther,the Germans have totally no chance. Still I managed to immobilze two KV's and kill 3 T34's

who is this guy? what a piece of crap,I played it against the AI and in PBEM as the Russians,both times I won. I think its just another stereotype case of no understanding of proper tactics.

I have finished another battle too about the Seelow heights struggle. Its a huge battle best played as two player battle. Against the AI you should take the Russians. Its in april 1945 and semi historical. Did I mention it was CMBB ?? If anybody wants to test it for me please?

OGF Keller, I suggest if he sends the scenario we should try it together. I am very happy to take the Germans. What do you think? Henk

it shouldnt take long for you to receive the game,normally within 1 or 2 weeks. there are several scenariopacks available including one with a lot of Stalingrad battles. look at the scenario depot. remember to kiss all your relatives and friends goodbye for several weeks they wont see you that often after you get the game.

I would,please send it to me. email is in my profile. I like challenges.

well the battle is intended for CMBB it is based on a fight he(Rommel)won in the first world war in the carpatian mountains in 1917. Its a meeting engagement to capture a tiny village in a small valley. I modified the forces and replaced the Italian troops he faced than for russians. Its a reinforced bn size battle.

After reading Rommels infantry tactics I decided to try to make a new battle based on one of his reports. Its a meeting engagement. Its based on a story so you can qualifi it a little semi historical the forces are fictional,only the map of the area looks like the real area I would like to get two players to test it. henk

a railroad crossing would be nice to

Off course you should not put a gun in open space use trees of every kind, even on a hill topp Other usefull thing is to keep them in hidemode. Also give them a TRP(not in meeting engagements,a TRP increases their hit chance ) and even better to avoid early firing an ambush order into a direction you know the enemy is not coming from. If possible place a high quality HQ near it,best are the ones with stealth and fighting bonus. Several vehicles can carry guns Halftracks and trucks carry anything up to 75 mm and howitzers. The special guntractor is the only vehicle capable of carrying the 88's Jeeps and kubelwagons can pull the light guns If you want I can play a PBEM with you.

Hi Toad, You can try my Bourquebus ridge too Play as the Brits if you want a challenge happy hunting

This is the SDKFZ 6 gun trailer vehicle. With it you can move an 88 but only if you hook the 88 on it from the start of the battle. Once you unload the 88 it cant move anymore,its better to buy the AT (88)gun. But I rather buy the pak 40 which has a lower silhouet,reloads faster and is just as deadly and more stealthy. But more important you can move it out of danger. Best places are just on top of a hill/ ridge,place a Halftrack or a truck close behind. very good way to kill those pesky guns is to buy an on board mortar. happy hunting
