Is it just me or does the preview picture for the uniforms not work at CMMODS?

Excellent. Thanks Pat!

CMSF may mean nice defense contract for Battlefront which would mean more resources for more new games for every one.

Reviving this topic, and asking how the tactical A.I. will respond to surprises such as sending a squad into a building which you believe empty only to find a enemy squad inside waiting in ambush. Does the entire squad enter the building before LOS in established or does only the first guy bite it?

Interface Getting back to the original subject, how much of the interface at the bottom is modable? For example can we change the vehicle and aircraft images at the bottom?

Me, I'm wondering who they'll get to do the voices for the Syrians. Lone Syrian, want a free copy of the game?

Now wait, Steve did not say there is no chance of there ever being AT guns in CMSF he said:

Yes, this piggy-backing will work out well. I hope CMSF sells well enough for us to get all these goodies in future modules. Speaking of piggy-backing, it is my goofy hope that BFC does a pre-twentieth century game before it does East Front WWII so we can get cavalry in the USSR. Yes horses! and motorcycles!

Okay I'm not trying to stir up trouble here, but this is the quote from Steve I was thinking about that may mean we could have T-90s anyway, perhaps not at first, but in a module: "However, we create a new type of OPFOR force, called a Branch in CMx2 speak, to represent units that are not realistic for Syria. Let's say we call it the "Ahistoric Branch". It would sit right next to other Branches such as Syrian Army, Syrian Special Forces, Irregulars, etc. (we aren't quite sure how we're dividing stuff up yet). This is pretty similar to how we did things in CMx1 and it means that the player knows for sure that he is using unrealistic stuff."

Let's chill guys. We're going to get vehicles that aren't verified in the Syrian inventory eventually anyway I thought

So Kwazydog, If you read this, which artwork are you most proud of so far (and can we see it ).

You have to leave modders something to do. Which reminds me. Polys are still uneditable right? So modders won't be able to add goodies. [ December 08, 2006, 12:26 PM: Message edited by: Sequoia ]

Is that the first spotting shell? Is that normal? I was in FDC 25 years ago and that would have been incredibly lucky back then.

And does Battlefront expect any significant hardware requirements above that for CMSF for future CMX2 games?

I can't find if the time of year for the campaign was ever given. I imagine February in Syria is much more pleasant then July and will have an effect on such things such as exhaustion and angle of the sun. [ December 04, 2006, 02:43 PM: Message edited by: Sequoia ]

Yes, I'm reaching for things to talk about. Anyway, as we know, there are no Moebelwagens in the game but there are Ostwinds, even though Ostwinds are less common. My guess is that we didn't get Moebelwagens simply because it would be too difficult to animate the opening up of the box between travel mode and firing mode. Also, Moebelwagen means furniture vehicle right, or am I doing another bad translation?

Hello Have you guys considered if you'll offer bundles for a game and modules that would be cheaper than ordering each seperately, similar to what's being done with Down in Flames?

Why did the Germans call their armored recovery vehicles Bergepanzern? Doesn't that mean Mountain Tanks?

Oh well, since no one apparently downloads any mods from CMMODs any more it doesn't matter much does it?

Steve,Charles and Matt are eating turkey. The rest of the gang though get to work! No holiday for you!

It's not in the game. I think the Free French had very little French made armor in Africa. I can't recall if the H-39 or R-35 are available other than captured Italian. There is hope, however, that you may see the CHAR B as a captured German vehicle when Battlefront does the CMX2 France 1944 game. Am I correct in this German usage or does my memory fail me?

I think it would be difficult even doing an Iranian Mod as, AFAIK, Iran never having been a Soviet client state would have completly different TO&E.

Special Forces Hezbollah? Just a wild guess.

Steve, haven't you sold this thing to the DoD yet? They should be giving you Syrian TO&E.
