Oh, I did both. Chewing bubble gum and walking at the same time is something else you never got around to I expect?Originally posted by Geier:</font><blockquote>quote:</font><hr />Originally posted by Boo_Radley:
Oh...I never got into "Dungeons and Dragons".
I dated girls, instead.
I could do something with that "got into" you wrote there but I'm not touching that even with a bastard sword.</font>

Well, after reading this thread, I'm not going to review a scenario again at the scenario depot. What's the use? If I give high marks for a certain aspect it's suspected to be "overinflated" and if I think it was lacking in one aspect, then it offends whoever created the scenario.
My simple way is just to compliment whoever made it in the combat mission chat room.

Alright maggots!! I have some TNT in my stained boxers and am ready to do some splodin'!!
Is CMBB better than sex? You betcha!! (at least with me)
Is CMBB better than a 12 pack of beer and a bag of cheetos? Uh, well it's better than sex. (at least with me)
So, whip out your King Tigers and kill the commies who explode into nothing when you shoot them and stuff.

When you read the thousandth incarnation of this theme.

Just an oh so humble suggestion, if I may, Mister Dorsosh, sir. This "fan" thinks that perhaps you might want to play them all. That is my plan. Savor the yummy goodness of the Operations and jump into the scenarios. Peruse the PDF that comes with it and do it chronologically if you wish. Or, maybe you could do whatever tickles your fancy, assuming you have a fancy, and play them randomly, but do play them. That is the important thing here. Play them.
I can hear them calling me from that secret, special folder on my hard drive and need to get back to my scenario friends.

This is a bump. Well, more of a hot, steamy pile of kudos and a bump. I am enjoying the Stalingrad Pack the same way I enjoy gazing upon big hipped women who offer to buy me beer.
-
Did I mention how the Stalingrad Pack improved my love life?
Well, before women would give me a dirty look and spray mace in my eyes. Now that I have the Stalingrad Pack, they yearn for the Hiram-lovin day and night. They won't admit it though, but the yearning is there.
I owe it all to the scenario designers of the Stalingrad Pack. Thanks guys!!

Oddly enough, CMBB runs faster on my machine than CMBO did. I have no mods and am currently playing a huge scenario. It runs quite well. I have a PIII 700 with 128 MB RAM and the obligatory hamster providing power to my hard drives.
I recommend the Stalingrad Pack to anyone who is disillusioned by CMBB. That is what you truly need.
You may think because it's improved, that it should be slower. Right? Delve into the goodness of the Stalingrad Pack and realize what you've been missing all of these years.
The Stalingrad Pack gives you what you need when you need it. It fulfills all those secret desires and runs quite smoothly.
I was an empty shell waiting for fulfillment until the Stalingrad Pack came into my life. Try it, and quit b*tching about CMBB.

New thread, yes?
-
This one needs a bump.
-
Thanks, Scott. I have found nirvana at last.
-
I shall now use the Stalingrad Pack to pick up big hipped wimmen.
-
I hope none of my PBEM opponents will read that last little nugget. I will beat them senseless now!
Mooo hahahah!

This is me over here puking my freaking guts out at the notion of OGSF and Joe Shaw setting up a date for heavy petting and pillow talk.

What a bunch of freaks.

I know that the designers put alot of new commands in the new and improved version of CM. Well, I wasn't one of the one's who requested them and after the "newness" of the game wore off, I found myself going back to my old habits. I use the basic commands that CMBO had and am enjoying the game.
"Move to Contact" is obviously for wussies. I hate having each and every one of my digital soldiers hitting the dirt whenever a shot is fired. Am I demanding they change anything? Nope. I like it just fine. I just choose to play it like it's CMBO.
This post is just a tongue in cheek way to let people know that this is a game to be enjoyed no matter how we play. Sometimes, we can change how we play instead of demanding changes to the game.

These might be answered in the manual, so please be patient with me. I read the thing twice but am unsure about some things.
1. The TRP's I set as an attacker during the first battle are gone during the second battle. Would I be getting any more TRP's during the course of the operation?
2. My artillery is way off. I mean way off. This is without a TRP. I mistakenly shelled my own men even though I set my FO to shell an area about 500 meters from where they were. It is light snow and poor visibility. All other attempts at arty have been fine though. The AI arty has been quite good to my detriment. Any suggestions for Arty without LOS?
3. This is my first Static Operation. (Der Manstein Kommt) Any general tips on how to beat the snot out of the AI? It's personal now.
-
I'm currently playing an operation called "Der Manstein Kommt" vs the AI. It's the first CMBB Operation I've played thus far and I'm enjoying it. If enjoying is swearing at the screen and scared spitless that my tanks will die one by one while my infantry gets raped over and over by the AI's superior intelligence. Yeah, I'm enjoying the Stalingrad Pak Operations.
-
I am downloading and trembling now. I usually tremble anyway because of the huge quantities of cafeine I ingest each day, but that is a story for another time.
I would like to say thank you to the scenario designers who deigned to deliver such a wondrous combined creation. I will savor each second of game play. You are my heroes. Well, you and William Shatner.
-
Cue sycophant response:
Steve, take your time. We are willing to wait as long as it takes.
As for the Stalingrad Pak..that's a different story.

I will struggle to not have my "ass handed badly" as Andreas said. All of that "ass handing" can be quite disconcerting.
Waiting with bated breath over here, boss.
Edited because I was unsure where I should sit during the "Handing of the Ass" ceremony.

Need my precious pack. I cleaned out all my current scenarios and tucked them away on another part of the hard drive in anticipation of this awe inspiring scenario goodness. I'm hopped up on Mountain Dew and polishing my mouse.
I look at it like Chimera for Myth II. Almost a campaign.
Edited because of jubilatory excess.

I believe both quotes ("Andrea, kiss Marlow. Now strike him." being the other) come from the episode "What little girls are made of."? The first was spoken by Ted Cassidy who would later go on to play Lurch.</font>Originally posted by Boo_Radley:</font><blockquote>quote:</font><hr />Originally posted by dalem:
