Big Frickin Tank

I like downloading new scenerios and ops. So if anybody know of a good website with cm downloads please inform me. The best I know of is TGN's Combat Mission HQ at http://combathq.thegamers.net

I have a small request. Anyone who has the CM demo, or just the scenario Valley Of Trouble, I would like to have someone e-mail me Valley Of Trouble. I do not think it is in the full version (or at least my copy) for some reason. Also, I made a scenario. I basically made it from scratch but it turned out pretty well. It's totaly fictional, and it has no briefings or story. But if you are the kind of person who collects every little scenario there is, you might like it. It is a very small battle but includes fighter/bomber attack. If you want it just email me. I would also like to know your opinions about the scenario. Remember I was bored, and I made this quickly, so I wont be surprised if people think it sucks. Thanks.

I can play combat mission, but if I use it for about 30 min. or more it says The Finder Needs My Attention. (I am a mac user) Then it displays a message that reads Could Not Read CD Combat Mission Error -65 occured. What in the world does that mean and how can I get it fixed. Please Help!

I am running os 9.0.4 and have downloaded the latest updates from system update. I think my real problem is acually downloading the mac mod managers. I think that I have all my ATI drivers needed.

I got a G3 power book with a rage card. And, I tried to download the Maddog mod pack but I could not. (I already saw this problem)

Yo, sombody help me. I am a mac user and the faces seem light and mangled. What can I do.

Finally my game arrived, so I was wonderin if someone could PBEM with me. My email is: Iozzo@starwarsfan.com Thanks! ------------------ BFT

The way i do it with the axis is first secure one tank BEHIND the church and hide it. Then place youre other two tanks somewhere on the right side in scattered trees. Hide some of youre troops in the woods, for they will come in handy later. Now you can stand to lose two but NOT three of youre stugs. The stug behind the church is esential. Any tanks that pass by that stug are gonna be wasted. Now it depends if you are lucky. Keep the stug behind the church and most likely it will not die. Once all the tanks have been taken care of. Advance youre troops and secure the left flank with youre remaining stugs. Then it will be easy from then on!

Well I'm trying the new tactics, and now i admit it hiding is better than ambushing. In the leve Chance Ecounter I hid one of my stugs behind the church and my other two stugs in the scattered trees near the begining, and the stug behind the church took out all of the shermans including the sherman+ and I slowly moved my army up, eliminating and capturing many. So thanks for your tactics, I really needed them.

I dont have the full game just yet, but I was wonderin if sombody could tell me good techniques for building a good, tactical level. You know, should I include buildings, bridges, hills, forests, landmarks, and a fictional or non fictional battle. Also I am in great need of levels, so email me if i can download a level. thanks. iozzo@starwarsfan.com

I have the demo right now, but i think that i need tips on getting rid of squads. First of all, Good or bad: if there is a squad in a forest or building, i take my chances and engage them while covering with artilery and tank fire. It works pretty well but i end up losing 3-6 people in squads. Also I need tips on keeping squads together. When I trie to move platoons (even with the hq) they usually run in a different direction, an even worse direction, so they basically write the own death certificate. I need to avoid this, but keeping squads still just gets them nailed. The main demo level i've been having problems on is chance encouter. I've only won it once and it was by pure luck. Well this probobly seems like some long lecture but i just need some tip. Please Reply!

Internet problem, sorry. Somtimes explorer goes randomly back and forth in sights. Just ta let ya know.

I have read and tried many tactics for the level Chance Encounter, but I just cant seem to win (with the almighty germans). My best way of fighting is to secure the left flank with infantry and hide my stugs behind the houses around the main wheat field. But sooner or later that Sherman+ pops up and takes out my tanks. That forces me to move most of my army into the forest and engage in infantry battles. But that Sherman+ is to hard to kill, any tips!?

I am having problems avoiding enemy sight. My best way of hiding is spreading out troops in forests or houses, then setting an ambush marker. It works pretty well but if the enemy gets some troops in (e.g. Heavy Smg Squads or Volstgrenadiers) i get spotted and then usually get wiped out with tanks. I anybody has a better way of hiding please ingorm me.
