47 here. Good to see so many "wise ol men" playing the game!

Thanks for the info. After further "research" (playing both sides of hotseat), I found that it "appears" that in Assault, the flags are farthest from the attackers, in Attack, they are a little closer and in Probe they are the closest to the attackers. This would explain why the "attackers" get the highest points in Assault(as compared to Attack and Probe). I also found that for a 1000 pt game, the attackers get 1750 for Assault, 1500 for Attack and 1350 for Probe, while the defenders always get 1000 pts. Again, it would be nice to see a write-up somewhere by the game developers describing this in detail and confirming what "appears" to be the way this is set up....even though it is interesting doing the research.

I've played CM for several months now, but only recently over the internet. Is there a more detailed description somewhere of the various modes of play (Attack, Assault, Probe etc.) than in the manual? Exactly what does it take to cap and hold a flag in each mode of play. I tested several options in hot-seat mode, and am figuring it out the hard way, but was wondering if the game designers simply wrote up the logic somewhere. Thanks folks for an OUTSTANDING game!
