keep em coming *bump*

Now, I've read some posts about the ongoing debate about CM2X. Some people want it to take place in Vietnam some people WW1, some people Middle Eastern Conflicts and some ON THE MOON! Now i've played all the CM series and i find it most enjoying. But i can see that some of you might find it a bit tad if they put CM2X in WW2 again. But i still feel like Battlefront has only licked on the top of iceberg that sunk the freakin titanic. NOW is the time to really perfect this wargame. They have most of the numbers they need they know how to make most of the units they have every data they need for most of the units. So there will be less hazzle with unbalanced units and so on. If they had to set the game in a new war they would have to start researching all over again. NOW is the time to perfect. Start focusing on other aspects. Like Multi-Multiplaying or Multi Campaigning, Refine the graphics, bring in more theaters, perhaps the pacific and the europe. FOCUS on doing the best scenarios ever do better operations and so on. Amaze us with the best WW2 wargame ever! Please do not attempt to make a game of some war where one side just Ran over the other side with their tanks and aeroplanes.

*bump* Sorry for keeping this post alive, but its actually working

Yeah, would be great! New engine, They have all the statistics they need from former games more or less. All we need now is some kind of campaign map so we can go straight from moscow to the shores of normandy and push those yankees away from Europe.

Wouldn't be great if BFC but all three Games into CMAK and engine so we could have access to all three theatres and units in one and the same game. Size shouldnt matter just put the game on dvd.

Yeah, i guess your right. By the way while where in the discussion about powergaming and so on. Im going to have a little tournament any you guys know some good Restriction and Rules that you can setup. The tournament is going to Quick Battle, ME in Italy around 1000-1500 pts.

I may have been wrong regarding the 150 mm gun, but i still feel that there is something wrong when you play quickbattle, I guess there will always be powergamers and so on. But I think it could be restircted somehow. Maybe by adjusting combined arms limits and so on.

So what i understand is that you should save all your mortars for possible AT guns? I usuallay use them to supress troops and so on. Cause some times the ATguns doesnt appear until midbattle, but should i save them for that?

Sure, well i still think the 150 mm guns are to cheap. Lets say you have aroudnd 200 pts left, what would you buy another company men or three 150 mm guns. I would take 150 guns since i know they kills around 20-30 men each if fielded properly whilst the men cant simply do so much harm. Im not saying there is no way to take them out, just that they are way to effective and rare to be at that kind of price.

Now i play this game mostly via Internet since the only fun in this game can be found by gloating your victories over your beaten comrades . I like to setup quickbattles and random maps but their seem to be serious issues with this. For example i like the point system that enables you to buy units and so on. But some Units are way to expensive or way to cheap which makes the game totally unbalanced. For example the 150 mm Inf. Cannon avaible for the germans at a cost around 55-75 pts. The 150 mm is slow and doesn't hit the spot so often but the morale effect it has on men is HORRIBLE. Why has does this gun cost so little, ive researched a little and the 150 mm was a gun that was extremely rare, so how come this gun only cost 75 pts when it should be more around the sums like 250. Can't we try do to something to balance points cost against eachother so we can have a more fun and equal Quick battle internet play.

Ive read most of the posts and it seems that people don't see the tigers as a big threat. During my career with CMBB and CMAK ive only managed to take out ONE tiger. They have always seemed invulnerable And shermans normally dont stand a chance. I've had like 3-4 shermans pounding one tiger and he has taken them all out. So it must have been a "fluke" just pure luck, or i must be doing something wrong. But i have flanked the tigers with tanks and never seemed to be able to kill them.

For all you Scandinavians out there is homepage for you to find players in nearby regions. www.cmbbswe.dataphone.se Just go to the forum and register, for the moment we are having an opening CMAK tournament that you are also welcome to participate in. See you there. The forum is mainly in swedish, if you don't understand swedish just ask for the users to write in english. Im sure that they will change. Haido

UP UP AND AWAY!!!

You might now have seen the post but there is a thread about starting a Swedish Community. We already have a IRC-channel #cmbb.sca @ www.combatmission.com:6667 and a mailing-list. I Will get you the link to the other thread. http://www.battlefront.com/cgi-bin/bbs/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=23;t=003011 There you go, See you on the battlefield.

Jotte are you a member of the mailing list?

Nice seeing you here to Vils Well you have my mail anyway. Knivbjorn and I have taken the liberty to register a Scandinavian CMBB channel #cmbb.sca on the irc server www.combatmission.com:6667 Feel free to drop by

If youre interested in playing and discussing the game you can also come to IRC www.combatmission.com:6667 #lobby

Thanks mate Hope just everyone else gets this too. There was an Irc channel @ www.combatmission.com port:7777 #lobby Idle there with an IRC client. Get the client at www.mirc.com

First of all its really hard keeping up with this forum, I checked this post 12 h after i posted it and it was on page 3. Jeez.. I know there are historical forums and so on but i want to be seperate for each and every game. kind like CMBB GAME MODS HISTORICAL NEWS & WEATHER CMBO GAME MODS HISTORICAL NEWS AND WEATHER

I would like some subfolders Like Historical Modding section Gametalk and General talk

Is there some kind of meetingplace for us gamers to meet in deadly skirmish? Like an irc-channel Java-chat (blah) something that includes direct communication?

Actually seeing the men youre commanding would be unrealistic? At least it should be an option to choose from the menus. Maybe you think playing without all the trees and buildings is realistic too?

Thanks madmatt for your post. Still if you are searching for a game with realism you should include full size squads.
