  1. Ok, since i believe this hasn't already been suggested, i have to say it: The Spanish Civil War. I think it is a very interesting conflict to explore, terrain and battle circumstances were amazingly varied, and i think it was different enough from WWII to become something more than a CM3. On a personal note, my grandfather was 14 when the war begun, and he recalls so vividly the sound of stukas falling down on them that i wish i could grasp a bit of what he experienced. Another CMBB lover.
  2. I just got my hands on a copy of CMBO, and I just needed to say this is the most amazing WWII simulation I've ever seen. I started the tutorial scenario, (without looking at the manual, i wanted to check how playable it was), then i started advancing the allied troops (quite randomly if you ask me ) and after a turn, one PzIV and maybe a MG suddenly appeared and opened fire on the men, and i just could do nothing about it! i started feeling so bad that i sent them to death i had to quit and start over, i really felt like they were MY men and that i was responsible for their survival. Of course i'm aware of the fact that men die in wars, and it doesn't matter how many horrible scenes they show you in the movies, this awareness of the war is about sending someone to death. So i wanted to congratulate the authors of CM for helping me broading my understanding of warfare, for achieving such a realistic experience. There's no more moving whole divisions up and down some hexes, now i also have to take into account that i'm not god, that i can't send my men to suicide situations, or as machiavelli wouldn't say... the end doesn't justify the means. By the way, go Monty! just kidding P.S: i REALLY love tiny scenarios.
