I just got the 22 in wide screen LCD Monitor. The 1400 X 1050 is less than optimum.
Kinda off topic: Will the new CMSF support 1680 X 1050?

I think you have some idea of what's coming bases on the strategic map. Setup will be crucial. If you know you are totally out gunned. Set up on the back edge of the map. Flee to the adjacent map and bring help from other MEs in the next round of battles.Originally posted by Vergeltungswaffe:Agreed. I love the prospect of not knowing what I'm defending against, and having to make the decision to conserve my forces and try to withdraw orderly. Conversely, it will be fun to attack and find that the defenders are too numerous to succeed.
Basically, after years of playing mostly balanced battles against people, I am looking forward to the challenge of more realistic battles.

Hawkwind ummmm some of their really early stuff: Warrior on the Edge of TimeOriginally posted by panzermartin:Ok a little early you'd say but lets give it a try.
Any preferences? Hassan i Sahba by Hawkwind will be perfect to set the mood for the red side, as for the Blues...surfin usa maybe?

I'm positive they mean if war protests and congressional bickering get too loud in the blue nation, drug use and fragging will go way up.

I've become so desperate waiting for CMC that I...
do not read this forum group and only look for news on the home page.

Within a turn nope
KIA and WIA determined only at end of game.

Where is Hunter on all this? Its been 7 weeks.
Standard reply:
He can't develop a game AND monitor/reply to the forum?
-
When the threads head in this direction its time for Hunter make a post or two.

I think all that has been said in this thread makes lotsa sense- unplayable massed games, unrealistic etc.
But I wonder if the massed ball of forces can be surrounded and made out-a-supply, resulting in all that armor becoming bulletless pill boxes. That alone can force the plsyer to keep the troops to stay spread out in a realistic distribution.

So how are victory points accumulated?
OK, I assume total casualities/total survivors count as a major factor for victory.
Which is more important?
</font>
- Winning a small CMBB battle with 4 flags</font>
- The total over all CMC squares that count more</font>
Basically, is an uncontested CMC square equivilant to a CMBB won CMC square (not counting KIA/WIAs)?
Do you get victort points for a CMBB win?
-
Way back (early days of this announcement/forum) there was talk of various types of scenarios: Meeting Engagements, Attack, and even Ambush?
How would the set up area of an ambush scenario be?

And now its my birthday and STILL nothing!

Apparently the Soviets couldn't have built so many of their own tanks without US steel?Originally posted by Sigrun:</font><blockquote>quote:</font><hr />Originally posted by Der Alte Fritz:
The main influence of Lend Lease equipment was in trucks and radios, by and large the weapons that were sent were not widely used by Soviet forces. So your war should factor in mainly material assistance.
cheers
Another query...how much of Germany's output was deployed on the eastern front? I've read as much as 90%, but that seems somewhat high. </font>

I am a lineman for the county.
And I drive the mainroad.
Lookin' in the sun for another overload.
I hear you singing in the wire. Chorus 1
I can hear you thru the whine.
And the Wichita Lineman,
is still on the line.
I know I need a small vacation.
But it don't look like rain.
And if it snows that stretch down south,
won't ever stand the strain.
And I need you more than want you. Chorus 2
And I want you for all time.
And the Wichita Lineman,
is still on the line.
(Lead, then Repeat last chorus)

Good photos.
Zoom in on the Puppchen. There are some pictures of tanks on the bullet shield. Probably there to help ID the good guys.
Funny thing about the pictures: A bird col and a 1st sgt posing for the camera. I wonder what the grunts, that actually captured the weapons, were doing when the Kodak moment happened - digging again no doubt.

Open the CMAK scenario editor.
While holding down the 'Shift' and 'Ctrl' key click on load briefings.
You will now be asked to load the briefing into a new location of your choice. Choose new location (I prefer desktop).
Click 'Save' 3 times, one for overall and two side-specific briefings. The order is: Overall -Axis - Allied.
Using a text editor, open briefings and edit or translate, as needed.
