[1.01 'patch' for 'Grog' style interface, site redone]

Deanco, your HiVis interface makes plotting moves for large numbers of troops a real pleasure.

Sounds great! I look forward to it.

[BTS & CM reshaping the wargamming field?]

Yes I think BTS's artistry and vision is going to mean better games for gamers, even gamers of different genres.

Before BTS, I didn't know that an indie company was capable of such a feat. This realization itself will have an impact on the industry, with gamers reaping the rewards.

[Thanks for the Alt-Tab]

I agree completely. CM runs rock solid compared to other games.

[Do vehicles in light snow bog down?]

I'm about to begin a scenario in light snow conditions. The manual states that most vehicles can handle these conditions well. Should I be able to go fast over open ground and scattered trees without bogging?

[Beginner PBEM wanted]

I'm looking for a friendly and leisurely (1 turn/day) 1.05 PBEM game of any type, either side, preferably to be posted on the Rugged Defense ladder. I'm a newbie and I love chatting and learning about CM. Please email me.

[Tactics inside buildings]

Let's say, at the beginning of a turn, you find two squads of your own infantry and two squads of your opponents infantry inside on the bottom floor the same large building. What orders can you give them that will give them an advantage over the enemy troops eyeing you hungrily from across the room? Should they just stand there and blast away?

[closing this message board]

As a newbie, I'd just like to point out that many questions are not answered by an intensive search or answered in the manual, as good as it is. Some questions must unfortunately be answered repeatedly on this board due to their complex nature. I ask only that people try to be tolerant of us, and I find that the vast majority are.

[My PBEM matchmaking idea, what do you think?]

Interesting and attractive idea, Banshee---go for it. It is the effort of people like yourself that help make the CM community great.

[Anyone up for a PBEM game?]

I would enjoy a leisurely and friendly 1.04 PBEM game with either a beginner, as I myself am, or with someone more experienced in the evil art of CM. I enjoy corresponding with people from all parts of the globe.
