I've got a metal/plastic Jadgpanther on my monitor, I got it as a free gift from US Cavalry when I ordered my combat boots.
-
I got to go to the Wanaka transportation museum when I was down in Kiwiland, and I got to see their Valentine and Centuron tanks in the front parking lot.
-
I'm going to download the demo, after I order a copy of CMBB, and I'll be at the CMHQ chat playing everyone there, over and over and over until it arrives in the mail.
-
Why is everyone trying to be convinced that CMBB will be a good game, just give it to us!
-
I think he is talking about crews you would think would lose more guys if a 88mm knocks out the tank vs. a 37mm killing a tank.
From what I've noticed the number of crew dead or wounded depends more on the tank they are driving then what kills it, ie. PZ-IV crews seem to loose one less man then a Sherman tank on average when the tank brews up.
-
I just made a new list of people that I need to punish with lots of 50mm and 81mm motar fire with +2 Combat HQs next time I play them in a scenario. Plus a little jeep can sometimes get those heavier mortars to a nice spot quick, ie. the 3in.
-
If they run out of 20 somethings you won't be safe.
-
I heard that Osama Bin Ladin hackers already stole a beta version of the game, they changed the US army soldiers into the bad guys, and they are releasing it all over the middle east for free.
Maybe the world is entering into a new phase where are youth are brainwashed from age 3 to shoot first and ask questions later. Then it will come down to which side can dehumanize the other quicker.
-
Thats why I stopped playing QBs. I only play scenarios with reinforced battalions with each side getting 9 FOs with full ammo loadouts, everything else is so unrealistic, its unplayable for me.
-
The best way seems to always be the most expensive.
We just gonna have to wait for the good stuff to get mass release.
-
Steve and Charles already said that they are trying to achive excactlly what you guys are asking for in CMBB.
I forget where and when, but they said that battles will be ending much sooner then we are used to in CMBO.
But we will have to buy the game to find out how it works in a normal 1250 tcp/ip game, and if we like it. I think they even said we will be pleasently surprised with their new system.

Mid to late April 2000. Wake up, turn on computer and check in at Gonegold.com to see whats new. There is a patch for a game called combat mission. Which I vaguely remember hearing about 6 months before, but its graphics did not look very good and the description of the game did not sound all that great. Plus how could anyone pull of a 3D WW2 Tactical simulator properly?
Anyways the list of fixes for 1.03 was long and detailed, then I relized that these Combat Mission creators were serious about their game. So I downloaded the VOT/CE demo and checked out the forums for the first time. Played 2 quick games as the Americans against the Germans at VOT, then I ordered the game. Then went back to VOT and played until I killed every german on the map. As soon as the full game showed up it diddn't leave my hard drive for 2 years.

Oh come on, do I have to put
everywhere. I've told Kwazy that I loved his work before. Infact the best compliment I could give him is I've kept some of his mods on my CMBO for a very long time, and include some of his models on CMBO mod CDs I make for friends. -
great, now just release the game already so we can get our modders to work on all those tanks.
-
good call rommel
-
Maybe make the atlantic wider, or give america a couple cruisers locked in place until a declaration of war.
-
I think its pretty good as is. How is Germany going to get to surprise Russia in 1941 if they can see all the German units stacked up on the border?
-
Set up those small flags at nice jump off points, use a few more big flags. Then put in the briefing that the human player turn flags off when playing.
If the AI is attacking they will almost always need massive reinforcement, thereby making the game uneven if 2 humans decide to play it, so plan ahead for what kind of scenario you want.
Also try giving the AI a few elite battalion commanders with full bonuses. They will help keep those infantry under command better, and will help prevent a short 81mm barrage scaring half the attackers.

What will be defined as gamey next? Taking the long way around though the desert? Damn 7th corps!
-
I don't let these questions bother me anymore. I simple play larger battles, and bring a platoon, or every available gun to that fight you discribed and make sure that enemy is very dead.
If your target needs one tank to do the job, bring a platoon, if the target needs a platoon, bring a company.
-
I like that uniform, nice colors.
-
The only thing I was never able to find out was what types of chainsaws and how many, German pioneniers units had access too.
Otherwise, any question I've been able to come up with has been answered.
And yes, this is a great community. I'm so glad I've found all you sexy wargamers.

OH MY Muther-F------ GOD THOSE ARE SICK AND I WANT MORE!!!!!. Tanks a lot!
-
mmmm, Gladiator, I like that. I can't wait. We need some warm-up scenarios to keep us warriors sharp, dontcha guys think so?
Confirmed use of shotguns in combat ETO & PTO

Actually the shotgun in use by American soldiers goes all the way back to the French-Indian war(7 Years war). And have been with American troopers in every war since I think.
