Activation key from my Engine 3+4 bundle receipt was accepted by the Slitherine 'Register Serial' input screen. "You have registered......successfully!" Good stuff - Thanks.

Matrix support confirmed in an email that you must register the game on the 'My Page' area of your Slitherine/Matrix account after the game is released. I am assuming under 'REGISTER SERIAL' option that CMBN will appear in the dropdown. https://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=58&t=93585 My Matrix and Steam accounts are linked, so I see all my Steam purchases on the Matrix 'My Page'. Seems in these cases the actual mechanics never play out the way the publishers describe, but I'm hoping once the 'REGISTER...' process is complete, CMBN will appear in the Steam library automatically. Fingers crossed.

Didn't see a response to this. Is there a possibility the older titles will eventually find their way to Steam?

Got nowhere with a forum and a repository search. Is the map available? Thanks.

Hehe, installed the game fairly late in the PM and didnt scroll through the list. This work thing really gets in the way sometimes. Thanks.

Got a link to that "A Few Boys..." scenario? Thanks

I love gridded terrain. Not so much because I can focus directly on how to deal with the terrain rather than determining what the terrain actually is, but how much it PO's certain folks who felt compelled to post "I don't use it, and here's why you're a lesser being because of it" posts the last time I asked about it

Thanks for the responses, folks. There's a couple of reasons I want to play the CMxx games using the new HDD but I wont bother you with the details. Gordon suggested to me that I install CMMOS 4.02 on the new drive, then copy/move the files from the old PC, then upgrade to 4.03. Regards, GP

Is that a RTFM comment or an attempt at humor?

I just assembled a new box. My old box has CMBO and CMMOS installed (not the latest version), but I held off on the CMBB install as I've been playing the latter on my laptop. I want to move the CMMOS files and mods from the old machine to the new one, and in the end have the latest version of CMMOS with both games installed. I'd appreciate any advice regarding procedures & potential problems. Thanks for your help.

Guy, Are you just now realizing that there some elitists running around that look down on others who either dont possess the same skill level or don't dedicate the same amount of time & effort to [fill in the game/sport of your choice]? Go easy; don't take it personally.

The mod manager requires a little up front time, but in the end it makes life easier, and I'm glad I decided to use it.

I don't agree at all with the concept of "being hull down vs. one target is useless because you're not hull down to another". Isn't there a value to placing a unit hull-down vs a patch of ground where you expect the enemy to be & which you need to cover? The hull-down command that I envision would have you create a target like an ambush marker, then a movement path; the unit would move along that path until it was hull down to the first spot. If you were so worried about multiple targets, it seems like it would be easy to pick the one that would allow you to be at least hull down to one, and not exposed to the other.

2 weekends ago I downloaded most of the scenarios when it looked like the situation with TGN was "fluid". I think I got all the size 6 and smaller files that were unrated or had 3+ stars. I'd be happy to burn them onto a CD if there's no other source. GP
