According to here ( http://www.notebookcheck.biz/Intel-HD-Graphics-4000-au-banc-d-essai.76289.0.html ) it's better than a (low end) Radeon HD 7450 or a GeForce 610M, especially if you also have a core i7 in your system. Up to the 3000M intel graphic cards were pure crap. Apparently they are now acceptable for low / medium end games at relatively low resolutions. if you got the $$$ I'd rather suggest a GeForce GT 640M.

discipline was good, at least : "UN aerial reconnaissance had difficulty sighting PVA units in daytime, because their march and bivouac discipline minimized aerial detection.[147] The PVA marched "dark-to-dark" (19:00–03:00), and aerial camouflage (concealing soldiers, pack animals, and equipment) was deployed by 05:30. Meanwhile, daylight advance parties scouted for the next bivouac site. During daylight activity or marching, soldiers were to remain motionless if an aircraft appeared, until it flew away;[147] PVA officers were under order to shoot security violators. Such battlefield discipline allowed a three-division army to march the 286 miles (460 km) from An-tung, Manchuria to the combat zone in some 19 days. Another division night-marched a circuitous mountain route, averaging 18 miles (29 km) daily for 18 days.[35]"

Wasn't this done by proxy in Korea ? I rather have a Korea war game than that.

In CMx1 there was this possibility to setup a 2000 pts battle with 10% - 50% casualties, the game would allow to buy say 3000pts and randomly kill 1000 pts of units purchased. This would allow to buy big formations, and felt a lot more realistic : - you would get damaged, more fragile units, few units were at full strength ever - it was a good compromise between idiotic automatic random purchase and control (specially since the current automatic purchase is even worse than the old) - the formations were more or less preserved (less unit by unit pick up) I would love to see this brought back, if it is possible with the new engine.:cool: otherwise I love the CMx2 series, lots of nice touches : - possibility to recover lmg / smg, and even demo charges (I just saw a normal unit pick up 2 satchels from dead pioneers)... my men spend a lot of time scrounging - tree brust stripping out foliage... - destroyable trees ... - arty lethality is nice too, part of the game consists in provoking your opponent to waste his arty by opening fire too soon.
