    JoMac got a reaction from chuckdyke in Hard Cat Rules v2I - Simple to Use Command & Control Rules - UPDATED 01 JUNE 2022   
    I know in my Original 'House Rules' yrs ago had part of the following:
    All Units had Mandatory 'Cover Arcs, and it was wither or not you were in C2 that would determine range of that 'Cover Arc. If you were out of C2 you were in a Defensive Posture (essentially in self preservation mode) and have a limited Firing Arc...If in C2 you were capable of being in an Offensive Posture and have an extended Firing Arc.
    Anyways, something of that nature...
    My 'House Rules' stem way back in the CMx1 days and implemented in CMx2.

    Yeah, tell em ChuckyCheese ...After all @LongLeftFlank, should know what AFV stands for as he has only been playing CM, John Tiller's (EastFront, Westfront), as well as other Military Board Games longer them some of these Forumites were even born.

    Just play around with some Tiny QB's first (give you idea of Game Mechanics and developing Tactics), then start playing Scenarios/Campaigns...As, Danfrodo, mentioned, This way you don't loose that first time experience playing Scenarios. 
    I have faith in you, Zloba, and know you can do it :-)

    Yeah, but you can try and fake a breach at one location, then have your real main attack breach another location...That will show me :-)

    JoMac got a reaction from Blazing 88's in CMx1, Game of Century! CMx2?   
    I understand where your coming from...
    Dad, first got me into Wargaming with TRACTICS HO Rules back in the 70's (going to the Squadron Shop in, MD for inspiration) before we switched to Micro-Armor in the early 80's (when he first opened up a War gaming Hobby Shop in Northern, Va)...He still has his collection of Micro-Armor (as do I).
    So, I introduced Dad, CMx1 (BO, BB, AK) back in early 2K timeframe. He is now 75 and still enjoys playing them on-off to this day (thou, he never fully understood the different move orders, etc, lol)...I still remember playing a few Online TCP Quick-Battle games with him back then (think last time was about 5 yrs ago).
    Actually, I also liked CMx1 Game Play, but if it weren't for many units running low on Ammo within 15 minutes, or the all too quick Borg-Spotting, then might still be playing them today.

    JoMac got a reaction from Bulletpoint in CMBN weapons effect tests 2020   
    Actually, I would advocate that these Weapons (and similar) fire Single-Rounds at Med-Long Range and Short Controlled Bursts at Short Range.
    Also, I would tone down SMG's in general as they tend to be alittle too deadly at Meg-Long Range.

    JoMac got a reaction from Hister in Any tactical level boardgames played by CM owners?   
    I still have a collection of WWII GHQ Micro Armor (and other assorted companies) and, either play using couple different miniature rules, or just setup to look pretty on about 9x 2'x4' Terrain Tables.
