Totally in love with the scenario editor!

Get some AI plans in there Para and let me at it . //Salkin -
I like scenarios with smaller forces too. A couple where you can play as syrians could be interesting . //Salkin

Quick Battles completely broken compared to CM1!
Salkin replied to sandy's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 1
First of all...they didn't change the old CM they made an ENTIRELY new engine. That means they can't do things exactly the same even if they wanted too. They have earlier stated that the environments are way too complex for the AI to form a plan so right now the strategic AI in quick battles is extremely basic ,this may however change with upcomming patches, only time will tell. As for not being unreasonable to expect QB's to function 100% , I sort of agree, but things are how they are and my time traveling machine doesn't work so we have to deal with how things are. Try to hang in there for a bit longer and try some of the scenarios and I'm sure BFC will patch up the quickbattles eventually. This game is way to full of good stuff to just discard IMO. //Salkin -

Long story short, don't play quickbattles vs the AI...yet. //Salkin -

If you guys take requests, I'd like some more tiny one player scenarios that look as gorgeous as Parabellums pics above ! //Salkin -

how to chain "hide" at end of move ?
Salkin replied to scottie's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 1
I echo this request too. I want my guys to hide when they reach the building they are going to . //Salkin -
You should also be able to que up a hide command , so that once the units get into position they hide. //Salkin

I have to agree with this though, you miss out on some "iron cross"/"uberfinn" moments. //Salkin

I LOVE the 1:1 representation, and the animations are really cool too ! By the way, is there a point deduction for leaving wounded behind ? //Salkin

A prime example of why gamers are whiners

Yeah...you guys are doing an awesome job with these forums, and I think you know it too. //Salkin -

Don't let a vocal minority get you down Steve. Count your sold copies and then count the whiners on the forum Steve . //Salkin -
Yeah...I never thought I'd say this , but so far, in my experience, the realtime aspect works fine ! It's my preffered way of playing. //Salkin

That was yours . Nice one ! I think I saw a finnish name as the author but it sure as heck wasn't Sergei . About the grenade thing, I was thinking that it might be possible to get a nade into an unbuttoned stryker for the KO (by knocking out the controls inside basicly). Childress, about the camping in the back...I'm not sure if that is a mechanic that works in CMSF, hiding them should be sufficient, but I could be wrong. Let's see if we can't get an official answer . //Salkin

Ok . Thanks! //Salkin

My love for this game and especially urban warfare is growing. I recently tried the mission Ambush in Al Fubar: **SPOILERS**************************************** On the second playthrough I set up a nice ambush for some massed strykers plus infantry that the computer was sending in. The US assault team enter the ambush area and the trap springs: My lone RPG gets off one shot at a stryker hitting it on the side just seconds after it had deployed all it's troops. BOM! Infantry temporarily went to the ground and the stryker got slightly damaged while at the same time it got very pissed off. Seconds later LOTS of infantry followed by two angry strykers enter the backyard where my ambush was set. Huge volumes of fire from three of my squads strip the strykers of all their infantry support. Unfortunately while this was going on the damaged stryker and his two buddys were turning my RPG team into sausage fillings. After this they went straight up to the rest of my infantry while doing their worst to overheat their MGs and grenade launchers. Things were looking bad so I decided to bug out with the remains of my 3 squads (they were more like 1.2 squads now...). Not unlike other fights in this new gem of a game it was all very cool and dramatic. ************************************************** So on to the highlight of this post, the questions: Is it possible to injure/KO unbuttoned strykers with a frag grenade into it's openings, or some other frail part ? If the RPG man in a bigger squad is injured/dead is it possible for another man in the squad to pick up and use the RPG ? //Salkin

Where did you see this..I'm guessing RTFM . And....I just found out that it worked and so did a stryker . //Salkin

Can RPG's be fired from inside buildings or is there to much backblast ? //Salkin

CMx1 Veterans: How Do You Like CMSF?
Salkin replied to Steiner14's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 1
Definitely too early to tell...I want a patch or two and with the incredible depth in this gameplay I need , say, 20 more hours to play before I can form a solid opinion. It's definitely impressive, pretty, detailed and cool though...so it's not all bad . //Salkin -
It should be pretty easy to find a parking spot for that vehicle, that's for sure... //Salkin

The reviewers were right, aka, this game is broken.
Salkin replied to Panzer76's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 1
When you pick scenarios, there are a number of icons showing if it's a meeting engagement, etc. Where are these icons explained in the manual ? //Salkin -
Thanks !

Ok guys, quick question for all the new CMSF commanders out there. I'm in urban warfare and a firefight is about to go sour. I still have a few moments to react before people die but I need to get the heck out of dodge! There is incomming small arms fire and I want my squad to retreat while using cover and maybe even return fire. What command do I use ? //Salkin
