Well, I just finished my first battle, and I must say that that was the single most fun game of CMBB I've ever played! Thanks to Biltong for the rules that made it such an interesting adventure! One question: On the Favor Sheet, there are a series of red marks that say they point to notes at the bottom of sheet, but there are no notes at the bottom! It is pretty much self-expanatory, so I think I did it correctly, but am I missing something? Also: When calculating the points for the second battle, do you simply use 653 pts again for the cost of your Battle Group? My guess is that as long as their experience remains the same, you should use that same cost, but if their exp changes so that they go up to veteran, you would use the cost for those units. Thanks, Snowbart

You the man Seahawk!

Got a Question fellas. When using the editor to buy my Battle Group, and adjusting their respective settings such as ammo and experience, when you come to the platoon HQ's and the Co. HQ, do you adjust the 4 settings relating to them(command , combat, morale, stealth)? I haven't seen anything about this in the playerguide, rules, or notes. I imagine you don't adjust these settings, but wanted to see what the correct way is. Also, relating to ammo settings. I am supposed to have 50% ammo. While in the editor and buying my units, which I import along w/ the map when setting the real battle, do i look at that units max ammo and half it(for 50%), or leave it alone and simply set ammo to 50% in QB settings? I looked at each unit in my BG in the editor, took their max ammo capacity and halfed it for 50%, but im worried it simply cuts that level in half AGAIN once i tell the QB generator 50%. Many thanks for the help gents. Snow

Yes, God Bless it! And also England and Australia. France, Germany, and Russia need to get their heads out of their butts and join the good guys! Snowbart

Seahawk, Thanks a ton man, I think I've got it now. Sure to have lots more Q's after the first battle. Snowbart

Thanks for the help Seahawk, it is greatly appreciated. One more question: when buying my Task Force, do i use the point difference between the size i rolled for(1250) and the Battle Group size(start game at 653) which is 597 pts? What I'm saying is do I only get 597 points to buy units to be in the Task Force? Thanks, Snowbart

Well, i thought i was ready to start, but i have a question. I rolled for my Provisional Force, and came up with 1250 pts, after rounding up. Now, the Battle Group is 653 pts. After generating the 1st Quick Battle to get the Task Force Offerings, the AI picked 2 Inf Co.'s, 9 flamethrower teams, 2 50mm mortars, 1 81mm mortar, and 3 MG-34 HMG's. Now it is time to generate the real battle. Could someone please elaborate a little on how i actually get my forces for the real battle. Do I simply buy the starting Battle Group forces, and with the leftover pts(difference bet. 1250 and 653), buy whatever I want from the Task Force Offerings? Or is the entire force I listed above purchased? I assume the former, but I want to be sure I don't make a mistake and start out on the wrong foot. And if it is the former, do I trully just pick and choose which forces i want from the TF Offerings, or are there units in it that I MUST choose? Thanks in advance for the help!

thanks abunch nevermind...looks like it might be a serious project.

NCrawler, can i manually install these sound files or are they only for the CMMOS installer program-thingy?

Biltong, wanted to thank you for the hard work you've put in to this. I spent all last night getting ready for the first battle, and can't wait to get into the action tonight. I'm sure to have questions soon!
