Yes, it does. Thanks! I knew it had to be something simple--of course!

Just downloaded this demo and was "playing" the German side. Anyway, I know this is probably an idiotic question (there's no stupid questions, just idiots who ask them, right?), how in the heck do you invade Belgium and get your troops off the Maginot Line?? If you play the Allied side, I noticed this happens immediately.

Hello everyone, I haven't posted in forever...but anyway. Just downloaded this demo and was "playing" the German side. Anyway, I know this is probably an idiotic question (there's no stupid questions, just idiots who ask them, right?), how in the heck do you invade Belgium and get your troops off the Maginot Line?? If you play the Allied side, I noticed this happens immediately.

Thanks!

Everytime I've played the Germans and there's German air support, the dummies kept strafing my own tanks and infantry! I've even watched them blow the heck out of previous dispatched T-34s! I guess they didn't have Wheaties on the east front!

I'd love to see a US Civil War version.

Sounds great!

Thank you all for your kind words, thoughts and email. I sincerely appreciate it all.

Thank you all for your kind words. I hope you don't think I'm wearing my emotions on my sleeve. This is the first time in a few months that I checked Battlefront.com out and noticed the CMBB is scheduled to ship on Sept. 20. It just kinda hit me between the eyes...

Thank you, Abbott...I appreciate it.

Some of you may remember a post I made probably around April about my buddy struggling against colon cancer and that CMBO was the only thing that really kept his mind engaged. He was very worried he'd never see the "East Front" version of the game. Well, he won't as he passed away on July 4th. We really loved CMBO and it was even more important for the two of us to play as it was the only thing he could look forward to. He had to quit his job, etc, and this was the only thing he had for entertainment. The game was very theraputic to him. And I appreciate the designers of the game creating this program. It gave us a reason to interact on something other than his condition. We had been friends and "war gamers" since we were 13 years of age. He was 45. So pratically we've known each other for life. I guess those who created this game never really considered how it could provide some relief and distractions to someone in serious need of it. Funny how life turns out like that. I thank you all deeply for this. I've not played CMBO since because it's a bit painful, but I still have all his PBEM games we were playing saved. I can't bring myself to delete them. I sure wish he could have seen the new game. He'd ask me just about every day if it was "out". And usually add "I'll never see it" when I told him it was coming. I guess I'll order this one...eventually. One of these days. But I think it will be awhile. I don't know yet. I can't even tell you why I'm posting this. Mainly, I guess, is to thank the company for developing CMBO. It truly is a remarkable game. The game was certainly a conduit strengthening the bond I had with my friend during a time he needed a distraction and a challenge.

That's what I was afraid of....thanks

This may have already been covered...but will CMBO play on windows NT? Thanks....

Anyone know where there are websites to download good operations "files"? I know of some, but am wanting to expand my list. Thanks in advance!

I have a very close friend I PBEM and he is terminal with colon cancer. He says this game is the only thing that keeps his mind engaged. He also regrets that he'll never see the east front version of the game. It rips me up just thinking about it, and although I've played this game just about every day for over a year, it's been hard 'cause I associate it with my life long friend's condition. It's a great game and as long as my friend can, he'll be playing it too.
