    I like this change of rhetoric over the past 5 years when Steam was seemingly the enemy of all things money. But eh, better late than never, so :salute:
    Steam has a fairly large community which is extremely starved for realistic military games. They will "mostly positive" anything that has any kind of bullet drop in it. Combat Mission will be getting those upvotes in droves.

    Oh Battlefront aren't remotely on the same level.  Just take a look at the DLC list:  https://store.steampowered.com/app/312980/Graviteam_Tactics_MiusFront/
    Professional customers pay for the game engine but customers pay for quality content, and Battlefront hasn't yet tried to cash in on that front.  The silly thing is once you've got your game engine up and running that's the hard and costly bit, you can churn out campaign packs for comparative peanuts left, right and centre (see Command Ops, CMANO, Panzer Corps, etc etc).  
    Meanwhile in the last year we've had one module for Fortress Rome, and in the last two years Shock Force 2 (which is a rebuild of old pre-existing content).  Sure, Battlefront have chosen to spend their time on professional contracts (and I don't blame them, that's good money) but technically releasing something once a year isn't the same thing as what Graviteam or the other major players are doing and I don't think Battlefront would ever claim they were.

    yeah it was a excellent addition to CMBB, was a huge game for what it offered. yes i am the same to, i pretty much buy or plan to buy any combat mission title..as i love what they are doing, especially the engine upgrades etc. any other game and you'd be getting the usual abandoned game issues trying to get it running etc. and i do find its still a unique game. and never get tired of playing or making scenarios
