Let's all make a pledge to help these fellas out. Even if it's 5 bucks, I think if we rally enough people, they can get back on their feet. Call it the Battlfront pledge or something. This isn't the first time they've been in trouble. Lets get a list going...

I was wondering if the purchase went through. Has anyone got an email receipt?

I had to think about this one for a little bit and after I purchased this manual, I realized I got a damn good deal. Even with the cost of shipping, most strat guides are 19.99 and only contain about 60-70 pages -- some more and some less. This contains roughly 300 pages with all kinds of relevant data that will literally save hours upon hours of surfing the net for what you're looking for. If you want to get down to it... Time is money and if it's gonna cost you 15.00 plus shipping to save many hours of investigating, then it's money well spent.

Wow.. I'm glad to hear that. Let me know if you have any suggestions. I'm always open to them and am willing to change the site around to meet users needs.

I just updated the hell out of the site. Please visit and let me know what you all think. Thanks!! Also.. I took some advice from some of you and made it more simple so those that don't have java-friendly browsers can enjoy it as well.

7 bucks postage is a little high for a $15 strategy guide. None-the-less... I ordered one. [ December 09, 2002, 02:51 PM: Message edited by: Ignus ]

Now do me a favor...... Use it.... LOLOL.... It's fun to be part of a community like this. Even though I suck at this game, I really think it's a gem and have a lot of fun with it. I am going to try to get a collection of MODS as well to add to the site.

Thanks guys. I keep changing/adding things to make it more interesting. However, I wish I knew an easy way to get tactics on there. I could copy and paste them from different threads and give credit where credit is due... But... Would that be appropriate?

I have my new site up that I have been working on for a majority of the day. There is A LOT of content to be added such as TACTICS!!! There are a lot of other goodies on the site and I would like your opinions so far. The forums are also up. Apparently it does not work with a WWW in front of the address. The address to the site is: http://cmtactics.no-ip.com The 'Tactics' button does not work as of yet. I need to get some of these together first. Given that I've been working on this just today, I think I've gotten a lot done. Please let me know if something doesn't work. I have emailed the guys here at Battlefront to make sure everything used is ok.. Let me know if you guys like it and how it could be improved. Thanks!!! Sincerely,

I'm about ready to bring this site live now, but am wondering if Battlefront would mind me using their CMBB ad. I use it on my site as well and I figure anything that adds sales they wouldn't mind, but I'm not sure... [ December 05, 2002, 09:45 PM: Message edited by: Ignus ]

OK... I've been working on a website with NO FRAMES... I agree.. They are a pain-in-the-ass. It's going to look a little amateurish at first, but what you're going to notice is that there is A LOT of information in these pages. Of course, it's going to focus on CM tactics, but I have added a page with links pertaining to WWII information such as WWII Armor, WWII Aircraft and Diplomacy of WWII. I've even added site links to things like the WWII Veteran's Website, The National WWII Memorial as well as some other things. I did not find a free web host. HOWEVER, A buddy at work told me about something cool where I can run the webserver from home after downloading a neat little utility and getting a domain name for free.. So.. I have been working on creating the pages. I don't know how long it will take or how cool it will be. Given my luck, the harder I work on it, the more people will dislike it.

ygg, I apologize... I thought that would be good enough for most people, but then again... Can't please everyone:) The bottom line is... Battlefront IS good. That's all I wanted to say. [ December 03, 2002, 04:47 PM: Message edited by: Ignus ]

All I need now is a free webhosting service. I used to go with Freeservers.com, but you can hardly even get the site to open up when getting to it and registering the first time through without getting a "page cannot be displayed" error is a miracle. Any suggestions?

I'll get working on it right away.. I could use any input from you good folks and I'd put it to good use.

Ok... I want to create a fansite for this game, but it would be using a free service and would largely be based on forums. Can anyone think of something that might be wanted as far as originality for a CM site?

Moon... Is this Martin? As in Martin Turewicz? You guys are up there with Sid Meier thus far in my opinion. Keep up the good work!!!

Here's an updated list of ALL of the CM: Barbarossa to Berlin reviews that I could get my hands on for all those non-believers out there or for those that just want to read more on the smart purchase they made... Wargamer -- Award for Excellence Gamespy -- 94% IGN -- 9/10 Game Planet -- 4.5/5 Gamers Hell -- 8/10 GameZone -- 8.6 Gamespot Asia -- 9.1/10 GameSpot -- 9.1/10 Yahoo Spiele -- 85/100 CombatSim -- Top Pick Award Finnish Game Magazine -- 94/100 Strategy Informer -- 8.2/10 Game Rampage -- 8.0/10 [ December 03, 2002, 12:13 PM: Message edited by: Ignus ]

Sorry guys, but I couldn't resist in responding to this guy. Just had to do it. It pissed me off.

Man o' man... I thought I was the poster fanboy, but saying ANYTHING is better than sex is simply going too far. IMHO... When it comes to sex, I don't even HAVE an opinion. If I don't like something my girlfriend says? Too bad... I suck it up and get sex... LOLOLOL. Combat Mission is pretty good though. LOL..

HAHAHAHAHA... Good luck and have fun...

Minneapolis, MN... It didn't even take 2 full days get here..

Where do you live?

I really don't think those reviews gave the proper justice that Combat Mission deserves. Reviewers ALWAYS comment on how the outdated graphics "have to go" etc. etc. in the constant slew of games they review. What they don't realize is that graphics are not AS important as gameplay itself. You can read this in any gaming magazine. It's been a popular argument for some time. It's like dating a chick with big breasts and an awesome figure, but she's a complete bitch inside. I'd much rather find a woman who is average to above average looking, but has a spectacular personality.

I ordered CB: BB on Wednesday and it is here today. I cannot BELIEVE how fast these guys are. Not only are they top notch in designing and implementation, but also in customer service. Kudos to you Battlefront!! Ignus

Man... I just ordered BB yesterday and I'm already going nuts. I WANT IT NOW!! HAHAHAHA... I've read some wonderful things. How are you guys coming along with this that just ordered it?
