  1. I'm wondering if you can update the CMC map during the game.

    Then, instead of having gamey situations, you could get your recce element to tell you your map is only so much percent correct and then corrects it for you, taking into consideration what it's observational skills are, etc

    That's probably asking for too much this release,but you never know :D

  2. I wouldn't mind something similar to the OCS boardgames from The Gamers, where you're given supply points(SP) and it's up to the player to use truck/rail units and get them within "throw range" of their fighting units by setting up dumps etc. Every time a unit wants to move or fight,it expends SP.

    I tend to bounce around a bit with my games. I figure if I'm playing a lot of games at once instead of just one for 5 hours a day that I won't burn out as fast. Works okay.

    Same here,I'm currently playing the Rainbow Six 3 campaign;trying to get into Highway to the Reich but just haven't found the time or been in the mood;I'm also playing the Starshatter campaign;mucking around with various flight sims(LOMAC,IL2,EAW),or was but my M$ precision pro joystick seems to have died.But my gaming time has been reduced as I'm working 60 hours a week over the holidays and I recently got a new girlfriend.

  4. In short - don't believe everything you read about the gallant Canadian Army, where every maple-leaf hugging beaver-kisser is a natural soldier simply because he was born north of the 48th parallel on the North American continent. We took a lot of knocks learning and relearning stuff from July 1943 to February 1945, when we really started coming into our own.
    Good comment,applies to Kiwis and Aussies as well,just read a good book recently that dispelled the myth that the ANZAC troops in WW1 were natural fighters, blah ,blah and that we learnt the hard way.But the book did rate Gen. Currie and the Canadian Corps highly.
