  1. ...They sell games to people, those games are not cheap...

     

    If you see them as just another computer game company, ... maybe.

     

    But if you see them as an alternative miniature tabletop war game company... 

     

    It really depends on, what do you think Combat Mission games are.

     

    Just imagine the costs (time, money, space), that you would have to invest to play a CMBS battalion size battle on a huge map ...with miniatures...

  2. When I load that QB map in the editor it looks like the OP.

     

    But if I load it when I set up a QB game it looks normal.

     

    Specs:

    Asus Z97 Maximus VII Gene with Intel Core i7-4790K OC @ 4x 4,6GHz
    NVidia GeForce GTX 980 (347.52)
    16 GB
    Windows 8.1 64-bit
    CMBS V1.01
  3. You are all wrong!

    The truth is: CMBS is a highly sophisticated novorossiyan psyop!

    proof:

    from the in-game briefing of the "Ambush"-scenario:

     

    ...Russian troops are quickly moved across the border into the Luhansk and Donetsk regions.

    [...] 

    A tense standoff results as the Ukrainian and Russian militaries stare each other down at the border of the new state.

     

    No words like 'self-proclaimed' or 'entity' or 'renegade' regions.

    No.

    The back-story says clearly: THE BORDER OF THE NEW STATE!

     

    :]

  4. I have played the training campaign and now I want to start playing all the scenario and campaign battles in chronological order.

    I figure that I have to start with the Ambush scenario.

    Is there already a list available which states the date and time of each scenario/campaign battle, or do I have to make it for my own by loading and reading each mission briefing?

  5. I play Combat Mission since Riesberg Beta.

    PbEM since Combat Mission 2: Barbarossa to Berlin

    I've played all CM titles. Till now I've won over 50% of my pbem battles.

    I'm searching for two additional pbem opponents (1 elite/ace and 1 newbie/recruit). CMBN only!. (Zone Alarm has shut off my CMSF and CMA.)

    I'm from Central European Time Zone. I can deliver 1 - 8 turns all 2-3 days, all 7 days in the week.

    Please - only people, who are interested in long time CM pbem play. First who comes, get's the deal.

    Jerry Siegel Attacks!

    Once there was a man who was so strong that he could stop a speeding locomotive with his ring finger, but he didn’t do it.

    —Folk tale from Des Moines, Iowa, USA

    Siegellack stinks! [Literally “Sealing wax stinks, but also a pun on Siegel’s name]

    —Proverb from Massachusetts

    Jerry Siegel, an intellectually and physically circumcised chap who has his headquarters in New York, is the inventor of a colorful figure with an impressive appearance, a powerful body, and a red swim suit who enjoys the ability to fly through the ether.

    The inventive Israelite named this pleasant guy with an overdeveloped body and underdeveloped mind “Superman.” He advertised widely Superman’s sense of justice, well-suited for imitation by the American youth.

    As you can see, there is nothing the Sadducees won’t do for money!

    Jerry looked about the world and saw things happening in the distance, some of which alarmed him. He heard of Germany’s reawakening, of Italy’s revival, in short of a resurgence of the manly virtues of Rome and Greece. “That’s fine,” thought Jerry, and decided to import the idea of manly virtue and spread them among young Americans. Thus was born this “Superman.” On this page we present you with several particularly unusual examples of his activities. We see Superman, lacking all strategic sense and tactical ability, storming the West Wall in shorts. We see several German soldiers in a bunker, who in order to receive the American guest have borrowed old uniforms from a military museum. Their faces express at once both desperation and cheerfulness. We see this bicepped wonder in a rather odd pose, bending the barrels of Krupp guns like spaghetti. “Concrete can’t stop me,” he shouts in another picture as he knocks the tops off pill boxes like overripe tomatoes. His true strength only shows itself in flight, however. He leaps into the air to tear the propeller from a passing German airplane. As we can see from the next frame, however, Superman has apparently made a mistake, since he seems to have encountered a Yid pilot. No German would say what the pilot says: “Himmel! Vos is diss?” The American answer “Well, here it is” seems to us not quite right. The right response would be something like “Laff if ya likes, I’m Simple Simon!” [The best I can do at translating “Se wern lachen, jach bin der klaine Moritz!”].

    A triumphant final frame shows Superman, the conquerer of death, dropping in at the headquarters of the chatterboxes at the League of Nations in Geneva. Although the rules of the establishment probably prohibit people in bathing suits from participating in their deliberations, Superman ignores them as well as the other laws of physics, logic, and life in general. He brings with him the evil German enemy along with Soviet Russia.

    Well, we really ought to ignore these fantasies of Jerry Israel Siegel, but there is a catch. The daring deeds of Superman are those of a Colorado beetle. He works in the dark, in incomprehensible ways. He cries “Strength! Courage! Justice!” to the noble yearnings of American children. Instead of using the chance to encourage really useful virtues, he sows hate, suspicion, evil, laziness, and criminality in their young hearts.

    Jerry Siegellack stinks. Woe to the American youth, who must live in such a poisoned atmosphere and don’t even notice the poison they swallow daily.

  7. I don't think this is fake. Every Reichsflugscheibengrog knows that there where stabilisation problems after the launch during Haunebu development.

    They just had no use for the many cars in the last weeks of the war anyway and cleverly combined the solution of different tasks in one

    single operation:

    1. They reduced over-production. After final victory all would get a Volksflugscheibe anyway.(economic layer)

    2. They reduced allied bomber fleet. (military layer)

    3. They produced a disinformation screen in beeing apparently just stupid nazis throwing cars at allied bombers. (intelligence layer)

    But it was all to hide

    4. Experiments to solve the electromagnetic stabilisation problems after the Haunebu launchs through free-fall-acceleration of cars to zero-point-energy-level. (final scientific core)

    Insider video for starters (but don't tell anybody!) :
