Looks good, Ive just started my annual book buying and this is now on my buying list after checking it out.

I'am suprised nobodys mentioned this yet, this is the main feature I want please consider it BFC

Dear BFC please may I have the following: 1. An option to turn a time limit in the orders phase, I enjoy it in Tcp/ip so why not put a option in SP 2.When gun crews abandon there gun because of heavy fire and route I would like to order the crew to man it again after they recover, I dont know weather this one could work but could be nice 3.Gurkas!!!!!!!! 4.Better operations and possibly a campign 5.big sand worms that come out the sand and eat your tigers :eek: , mayby not realistic but would be fun I've been good all year these are just Ideas nobody else has mentioned I want all the others mentioned too PLAESE!!

Now that CMAK is on its way I would like to get studying the north afrika front and Italy etc as I havent read much on these fronts so before I go digging out books at my local libary is there any good sites out there on the subject thanks in advance

whoooo Iam getting giddy like a little girl, this is a nice suprise considering I wasnt accepting a new Cm game till 2004 at least one Q though,north afrika and the pacific theatre are the fronts that I've not really looked into but Iam guessing that desert warfare is simaler to the steppes on the eastern front which I generally find bores me will the open desert be the focus for most of the scenarios?or will they be as varied as CMBB. thanks Ash Slater Edit: To say well done to BFC for bringing a new CM while working on the new engine I've already started to fill my piggy bank [ April 04, 2003, 08:16 PM: Message edited by: Slater ]

I thought the game was broken it was so hard :mad: and iam sure I can say that most of the vets took a few good beatings in the two demo scenarios as for your Q I too took advantage of the armour as the large open spaces arent ideal for conscript infantry but I found small advances from cover to cover while useing covering fire worked fairly well , Once close enough try and gain fire Superiority by going through all your squads and making sure there shoting at something prefbly at the germans but assaulting the flags was where i often got stuck mayby someone can fill in, I aint no tactician but thats the way I went to archive some sucess

That sure as hell would be fun!

Good to see somebody has a good taste in music on this forum! cool vid too

you got my vote, even if it used the current engine suped up a bit it would be worth the wait, two years though, I could be hit by a bus next week and never see a CM3 :eek: dont know if I could live with that!

thanks hans ill be sure to download now and give em a blast a couple of Q's though "Task Force Smith" how does this work with CMBB? and are these Scenarios large scale (company upwards)?

thats your problem there, target the mine sign thingy and on the target line something like "Target ATM" should appear then they should lob some HE that way, try a test with the scenario editor

Did you target the mines?

I woulda thought that rockets would have a higher suppresion than artillary with the same blast value because I've read first hand accounts of the sound scaring the sh*#t outta crack super troopers

Hi Dr.Rosenrosen, What I mean when I say outside the box and regular script is that most scenarios when striped down are one of the four Assault,Attack,probe and ME I'am not saying that this is bad but you could make Scenarios such as the couple of one's I described hence "Thinking outside the box" and yes the briefing would have a lot to do with it, like I said above the possibilitys are endless

I'am far from a scenario designer or at least a good one but I'am always thinking up what I think to be good ideas for scenarios, what I'am getting at is why is no one designing scenarios outside the regular scripts, an example: an elite platoon of pioneers attack a weakly protected bridge at night and maybe take out some bunkers or maybe a partisan group attacking a garrison of sleeping german troops who recently took there villege the possibiltys are endless, they dont have to be historical but I'am sure a good scenario designers could make them a lot of fun, it could be worth a look into anyways.

I've just checked my E-mail and found a NZ player willing to send the Mods etc which is great cause hes only 60 odd k's down the highway, now i can get my life back, iam quiting the drinking and after a QB see if the Girlfreind wants to come back ( they just dont understand what its like )

Its truly great this community eh , thanks to all you guys that offered to send cds and help me out my E-mails down for a couple of hours ( damn hotmails useless ) but I'll be checking my mail soon as its back up and I'am sure I can sort something out with one of you, again thanks to all I wasnt purposely asking for all this great help I just needed to moan and then to Receive all the offers was a great surprise its like Xmas all over again, anyway sorry to go on just had to say big thanks to all this is a great weight of my shoulders

I would of asked but i've just recently emergrated to New Zealand from england and I only now of one other CM player in NZ but hes just recently moved to aussie ( god knows why )

ok ok this isnt really important to any of you here but I need somewhere to moan. I just had crash on my pc two weeks ago ( First ever on this PC) and so I 've lost close to 700mb of mods maps patches for both CMBO and CMBB which I've been collecting since CMBO on a very poor and very very slow 56k modem and gotter admit Iam a mod addict, If only they had help lines for such things . oh well thats ma moan i just had to get out, I'am of shopping now for some of those bran spanking new mods I've missed

Forbiden access here too :confused:

I'am just wondering when can I get my hands on the Biltongs Campaign Rules V2.0 gold I read in another thread that it'll be New user freindly which I've been dreaming of since I tried to get my head around the rules ( which i didnt ) :confused: but I desprately want to get this so any help and info would be great. Thanks in advance

ok so if a FO is out of los then shouldnt he not see the artillary fall? or be allowed to adjust it

I've really got no idea how an FO would call for artillary but I'am guessing he would give a map grid refrence so how would LOS effect this if the FO nows the Grid reference to hit it cant be that he cant see the area because it'll be on the map. Just wondering if this is right :confused:

Terrain mods are a must since u see terrain every battle you play try tanks a lot's trees and trees bases and Juju building mods espacially his Factory one and then go to CMHQ and grab CMMOS and ALL the mods there.

In CMBB Shreks are the most effective AT weapon in my opinion I much rather have lots of shreks than two or three guns, I've see on a regular basis IS 2's explode because of these little devils. Just thought ill add this because I truly worship them.
