No matter how long it took them and regardless of the hell it put them through to code, the hit decals are pound for pound one of the greatest things they did for the series. There's more immersion in that one pic than 20 games of CM1 could produce — no small feat
Mord.
Very true - great addition to the game.

I have not done much with the editor so that is good to know.
Mord, from memory for QB you could sent a % attrition, a bit different to straggler units which were rounded up remnants of broken formations with whatever equipment they could find.

Just reading a book about operation Citadel, and one thing that struck me was how depleted the German formations were during and after the key battles and that they never had priority on replacements, meaning many companies would have as little as 20 men in them for months at a time. This reminded me of the CM1 setting that would thin out your force selection to mimic this.
Is there any chance of this returning at some point in the future?

You also need to consider AA effectiveness not just on planes shot down but also aborted attacks and more chance of the plane missing the target. From what I understand, in ww2 they realised a lot of the AA was relatively ineffective, but to throw the pilots aim off it was a better response than just ducking and hoping for the best

Just ordered, not the biggest module release but always great to see the CM game expanding... Roll on release day
-
Really looking forward to the next eastern front add on, there is so much depth to CMFB and CMBN the eastern front is due its turn, Keep up the good work Steve/Charles, still enjoying these games after 15 years!

Thanks Vet 0369 - all working now.

How are you guys playing the marines module, have I missed a patch or is there another work around? The game is telling me the Semper Fi and stand alone USMC battles need the Marines module (which I have activated).
Any help would be appreciated

Could not agree more, a great idea to revisit this title, I am loving this theatre more than the other modern titles.
-
Damn those new portraits look great. Big improvement let us all know when they are ready!!
-
I did not know that Hapless - good call.

We're pretty confident that a very large percentage of CMSF1 customers would have repurchased at that price and as a result we'd have turned a normal sized profit from our work. While there's nothing wrong with profiting (we are, after all, a for profit company!), for this one we felt very strongly that shouldn't be a major goal. Breaking even is all we're shooting for with Shock Force 2. Not because we have to, but because we want to.

Great outlook and no doubt one of the reasons you have kept such a loyal fan base.

I have not been doing enough lurking and am just catching up on the AAR. Excellent warm up for the main event at the end of the month! Thanks Baneman - now I am off to see what your opponent is up to
-
Awesome update Steve.
-
Interesting, I will check this out.
-
If it is an easy exploit that could ruin a lot of games I would PM Steve first.

Maybe I'm reading something into nothing, but there has been a lot of CMSF mods posted in the last 24h at CMMODS - maybe because of "imminent" release or announcement of it? Here is to hoping so
Rocketman, I was thinking the exact same thing!! Saw all that activity and thought there must be something going on. I am sure it is just coincidence but I am hoping this one is getting close now.

I want to buy all 3 of the titles in the works at the moment, come on Steve/Charles I need to spend some money
