  1. Ok I have a question about movement on the CAMPAIGN MAP:

    Do units move "quandrats at a time"? or "Complete TILES at a time?"

    Also is movement on the CAMPAIGN MAP in 60 minute cycles?

    In other words I'm on map TILE 1 quadrant 1 in the corner, if I move do I move to map TILE 2 quadrant 1 or just to map TILE 1 quadrant 2? in that 60second/mintue format?

    This tiles and quadrants stuff gets very confusing. lol

  2. yeah Brent you got it right. ;) I just want to make random maps from any GD editor and put them in the CMC megamap and play. Is that possible or do I have to actually edit every map and place units on them as well?

    Let's say I want a 3000pt vs 3000pt campaign battle. And I want a 4x8 campaign map that would be 32 actual individual maps correct?

    So, I randomly create 32 maps from the CMBB editor and place them in the CMC campaign map editor. Now, I have to place my 3000pt armies correct? Do I have to place them "inside an individual map" or just on the CMC campaign map on one of those individual SQUARES?

    I'm hoping I can just put the armies onto one CMC campaign map square and not have to go into the individual maps. Editing has always been a pain for me. Why didn't he make everything RANDOM GDmit! lol

    I had visions of CMC being, ok you want what size campaign? I input 4 x 8, then it asks and how many army points do you want for each side and I put 3000 and then it asks do I want to buy my armies or let the AI do it and I say Yes/No. And then like in the CM series it asks me all those other little important questions, trees, buildings, weather, etc. etc. and once I answer all of that it builds me a nice campaign game and all I have to do is PLAY! smile.gif

    Yeah I'ma lazy sod haha. ;)

  3. Female partisans like that one in "The Longest Day" riding her bike, in a near seethru dress, one strap hanging off the side of her arm. Her long silky smooth hair blowing in the brisk breeze?? Yeah I could go for some female partisans like that. ;)

    No Patboy she needs to be wearing a sheer dress. ;) And much much longer hair and gawd that face is ugly, lol, can't you paint better than that? ;)

  4. Yep, most all games today are crap, too graphic artists motivated and very little gameplay or openendedness. They need to fire about 1/2 the graphic artists of these games and hire another 1/2 for AI programming and scenario building. HPS's Gettysburg Campaigns comes with over 300 scenarios, now that's a game.

    I was a big fan of Battlefront, and can't wait for CMC version. But, I'm nowhere near as excited or will ever care about their first new release of the CMX2 engine. I hate modern warfare and I will not spend 1 dime on anything to do with it. Futuristic I can handle or pre korean war. Other than that it's all crap.

    But, on a brighter note CIV IV and "The Movies" has been pretty good entertainment for the money. Of course Sid Meier always makes great games and surprisingly The Movies is something new and innovating, though it's not very openended.

    Schwerpunkts AGW is out and it's actually pretty good. Reminds me a lot of the old Avalon Hill early games of the 60's. Simple mechanics, but, still takes time to master and PBEM games are still going to be the best for it. But, if you enjoyed AH's "Battle of the Bulge", "Africa Korps", "Blitzkrieg", "France 1940" and "D-Day", you'll enjoy Schwerpunkts AGW. Amazingly you don't have to wrack your brain to understand the interface and play a game out in one setting of a few hours.

  5. Reviewers have been reviewing expansions for games for years now and they haven't given them bad ratings because they didn't come with the origional game. Geesh that's so silly to think it should ship with the origional game only to get a decent review.

    Also though if the bundle deal is $35, hell, I'll buy another copy of CMBB, this expansion is worth every penny of $35 to me as a standalone.

  6. The player doesn't get to pick his units at all? Hrmmmm, not exactly what I thought it was going to be, thought it was going to be simular to SPWAW where you got so many points, purchased a group of units and played out a campaign with them.
