Whenever this kinda topic shows up, I miss John Kettler ...
-
Thats definite a feature I am missing from my old love, CMBO,CMBB and CMAK. Damn. Ich sehe gerade das du sieben Monate älter bist als ich ... März 2001 Und ein Lurker ... ;-)
-
So, if I understand this right, a.) if I put units on a map it is a scenario and cant be a QB. b.) my assumption that this would work like in CMx1 is wrong. I just wanted some trenches and wire for the defending side. Oh, well ...
-
Mad Mike, at least in CMx1 it was possible to do just that, building a QB map and putting some units on the map. Then, when you start the battle, it just would ask you if you would like to import those troops. I assumed that in CMBN it would be the same. OTOH, maybe I´m not clever enough and forget sumthing, that I have to do to get those units ....
-
Yeah, I did deploy them in the editor, and no, they aren´t designated as reinforcements. Just checked again, they dont show up in a QB, but do show in the editor.
-
Hi guys, on a map I´m building, I´ve bought some units in the editor. They show up in the editor, no problem, but when I start a battle with that map, those units dont show up. Is there anything else I have to do ?

Three-squad Para platoons, myth? Or fact?
Scheer replied to LemuelG's topic in Combat Mission Battle for Normandy
I´m not sure it is a Pak 40. The dimensions seem off.And wouldnt that thing be to large a gun for the poor, old Renault FT17 chassis ? Couldnt it possibly be the 50 mm Pak 38 ? -
I like taking regulars. And then I will raise and lower certain units, as I see fit. For example lowering some mere support troops ( like Jeeps or trucks ) to green, and upping my tanks platoon to vet as much as possible. The problem with taking veteran or better troops, is that you are loosing numbers of man and ammunition, cause of the higher cost, you get lesser men. Taking greens OTOH, to get even more men, is really hard, cause green troops are somewhat hard to maneuver the way I want ( longer responsetime ).

A few minor/ general questions...
Scheer replied to Dellinger327's topic in Combat Mission Battle for Normandy
Welcome to the board, I deleted the demo and then installed CMBN. Just to be sure . Always do it that way. For 150 points you get 10 TRP's ( TargetReferencePoint ). You can place them anywhere you want. They shorten the response time for artillery drastically. And I think they are a bit cheap, compared to the power you can wield with them. -
US on the attack : two regular companys of infantry and one platoon of Shermans .You need a Rhino or a platoon of pioneers if there is bocage . German defense : two regular companys fusiliers plus two 120 mm mortar modules with TRP . Really, it depends on the map. And your opponent. And what special rules you both use.
