    Just downloaded demo

    in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin

    Posted

    for fun you should find the "Chance Encounter CMBB" and "Last Defense CMBB" scenarios that are out on several 3rd party scenario sites, including Tom's Combat Mission site. These are old CMBO demo scenarios redone using the CMBB engine. They really REALLY REALLY show off the greatly enhanced gameplay of CMBB.
    MikeyD is absolutely correct on this.

    Cheers,

    Allied AI

    in Strategic Command 1

    Posted

    "A similar complaint can be made about the Axis AI. No Sealion before Barbarossa. Norway occassionally, Sweden rarely if at all. Ditto for Spain and Turkey. Italy attacks Greece through the mountains rather than a 1-turn seaborne invasion with air support. Rommel to North Africa? Nope." - Bill Macon

    And frequently won't take Denmark either.

    I also would like to see more development in this area. The AI seems unadventurous.

    Cheers,

    Tank hunter teams

    in Combat Mission Archive #4 (2002)

    Posted

    I played a quick battle set in May of 1945. It was an urban defense with a ragtag & out-numbered German troops I had picked. I had one of my tank hunter teams hidden in the upper story of a building, just waiting for the hordes of Russian tanks that were in view. Then a Soviet pioneer squad popped out of nowhere and ran into their building. And then another popped up and were coming across the street as the action phase ended. I figured that the 2 squads would quickly find and kill them. So I decided to let loose on the group coming across the street, picturing my guys going out in a backs to Berlin, the damned die hard kind of way. The next action phase started and my boys acted like it was a war movie, wiping out the squad by end of the turn. They used up a lot of ammo. The other squad gave them ineffective fire from the first floor and was removed the next turn by a squad I sent to the rescue. The tank hunter team ended up with 18 Infantry casualties caused. Now if I ran that turn again, they probably would be immediately waxed, which is what I thought would happen.

    But it went my way this time, which will comfort me as my luck goes downhill from here.

    Cheers,

    Mike
